PLUMBING In
The SCHOOLS
Board Acknowledges System
is Not Of Best, and Pleads
Lack Of Funds
COMMITTEES TO FIND
COST OF NEEDED WORK

Members of the Board Of Education
last night took cognizance of the re-
port published by the Master
Plumbers Association concerning the
plumbing in the public schools Of
Wilmington. which it contends, fol-
lowing an investigation, is in most
cases antequated and unsanitary.
In bringing the matter to the at
tention of the board president, Samuel
H. Baynard, said that in view OF the
exhaustive and at the some time dis
tressing report made by the plumbers
he thought some action should be
taken by the board
DR. T. o. Cooper, of the First ward,
said he knew the plumbing in some
of the schools was not what it should
be and should have been improved
long ago, but the board did not have
the funds with which to do the work
On his motion, however, the matter
was referred to the health committee
to make an investigation and report
back to the board together with an
approximate cost of the work at the
next meeting. DR.. Buckmaster's
committee will endeavor to meet with
the Master Plumbers Association, and
try to get one of their number TO go
on the inspection trip with the COM
mittee.

INTERESTED IN CHANGE
special to THE EVENING JoURNAL-

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
WASHINGTON d. c., April 15.-
AS misapprehension seems to have
existed among morocco manufactur-
ers in Wilmington concerning the
raw hides schedule in the Underwood
tariff bill, United States Senator
Salisbury has made a study of that
schedule, and is anxious that its pro-
visions shall become thoroughly
known to those interested
Wilmington, being one of the larg-
est manufacturing centers in the
country for morocco and leather
goods, would probably be one of those
cities mostly affected For the benefit
of those persons in Wilmington who
have not become familiar with that
schedule in the bill, Senator Sauls-
bury said today:
Hides of cattle, raw and uncured,
whether dry salted or picked, also
goat skins and sheep skins. by the
provision of the House bill. now un-
der discussion, are placed on the free
list. There is a misapprehension
regarding this in Wilmington. and
several of the morocco manufactur-
ers told me that goat skins had been
made subject to a Is per cent. duty,
while the finished product was on the
free list. This seemed to me so re-
markable that l could scarcely be-
lieve it, but the positive assurance
that it was the case caused me 10
examine the BILL with the result
above mentioned.
Il am glad to give positive assur-
ance through the newspapers that
hides and goat skins are on the free
list"
