BASE BALL GAMBLING ON
Bookmaking on the Game Now
FIourishes in Tenderloin
of New York.

NEW YORK. June 21.-A brand new
form of gambling has broken out in
New York, and it isn't on the race
tracks. either. Bookmaking on base
ball games is the latest scheme. 1t
attracts thousands of persons. and al
ready 1T is doing a thriving business.
\ few old racing bookmakers origin
ated the new form of betting, which
consists of circulating thousands of
pool chances on base ball games
throughout the city. Thousands of dol
lars change hands daily, but the big
gest slice remains in the Golfer of the
managers, whose schemes recall the
days of $40 per cent Miller.
Officials of the New York american
League club first called attention to the
evil this week, when professional gam
blers were barred from the Polo
Grounds. The club officials disciaimed
responsibility for the menace else
where. and it is in the Tenderloin that
the traffic is carried on by skil1ful
manipulators.
The speculative pulse of the city.
once located in the stock exchange, has
moved uptown. and it is base ball now
that has caught the betting fever
The latest gambling scheme has given
birth to many companies, whose object
is TO circulate chances or subscriptions
in base ball games through offices, fac
tories and other places where men con-
Sreeate.

EVILS Of THE AMERICAN
SCHOOL SYSTEM CITED
One of Greatest Is Teachers
Lack of Preparation, Says
Claxt0n.

zone of the greatest evils in the
American school system is the lack OF
preparation of the teachers said DR.. +.
p. Claxton, commissioner of education.
in his annual report, which was made pub
lie last night. Several defects in the ed
ucational systems are pointed out by
Commissioner Claxton, among which are
the wide discrepancy between the in
crease in the number of children of
school age and the actual enrolment; an
apparent; reduction in the teachers sala-
gies during the year. and the shortness
of the American school term as compared
with other civilized nations.
The remarkable increase in the night
schools and high school enrolment is
pointed out in the report, which also de-
clares that there has been a reduction in
professional schools, due to the enforce
ment of higher standards.
Illiteracy in Country.
Reference is also made to the abnor-
mally large percentage of illiteracy in
the rural districts. AS to the marks OF
real advancement during the year, the
commissioner lays especial emphasis
upon the growing realization of the unity
of all educational effort.
Vocational education occupies a prom
inent place in several chapters of the re-
port. The progress of the year, the clash
of opinions that has developed over Ger.
tain phases of Industrial training, new
vocational experiments in many cities
and states. new legislation on the sub
ject-these and other matters are impair
TALLY recorded. Current criticism of the
public school is summarized and discuss
ed, and the point is made that most OIL
this criticism is bearing fruit in actual
constructive programs, several of wh1cf
are given. School inquiries are cOnsid
cred pro and con, particularly in the
chapter on city school systems.
Agricultural education and the rura
advance are treated interestingly and In
detail in several important chapters.
The chapter on higher education con-
tains' interesting discussions of the at
tempt to combine higher institutions in
some of the states, standard colleges
and junior colleges. training for jour
nalism and other live issues of the uni
versities. colleges and professional
schools.

FIGHT AS CARS SPEEDS,
Two Passengers Aboard Elevated
Train Engage in Lively Set-To.

NEW YORK, June 2l.-Passengers on
southbound Sd avenue elevated train,
during the rush hour this morning. wit
messed a lively fight between two of their
number, which lasted from 18th street to
Houston street.
Albert Peretto Bronx florist. who had
entered the train at 42d street, attempted
to get off at 2Sth street, but was grabbed
by the neck by Harris Edelstein, a. tall
or. of l2iO Claremont avenue, the Bronx
who declared that the florist had picked
his pocket. A prolonged scuff1e ensued
the norist, who is somewhat understood
getting the worst of it.
AT Houston street both men left the
train, continuing to lay about at each
other while they passed along the sta
ton platform and down the stairs into
the street. They ended by crashing into
the plateglass window of a cigar store
At this point Patrolman Nelson of the
Mulberry street station appeared and ar
rested both of them.
At the police station, to which they
were taken, Edelstein charged the florist
with larceny, and was in turn charged
with disordery conduct by Abraham
Wolfstein, manager of the cigar store.

Gift From the White House.
Autos Reach White House
PIaStered With Mud
Gathered From Roads

The White House automobiles, which
usually look as spic and span as if they
had just come from the painters shop.
were thickly coated with Maryland mud
when they drew up in front of the exc
cutive mansion at about $40 o'clock last
evening. after having brought the Pres-
dent and his party from Brooklandwood,
whittier they had journeyed to attend the
wedding of Miss Ethel Preston McCor-
mick and Francis Huger McAdoo, son
o fthe Secretary of the Treasury.
Practically the entire return trip was
made in a heavy downpour of rain. Many
washouts in the road were encountered,
and on several occasions the chauffeur of
the President car lost his way. The
trip to Brooklandwood and return repre-
scented a ride of about 12O miles and was
the longest that Mr.. Wilson has taken in
an automobile since he came to the white
House.
Three big machines were used for the
Presidents party and his secret service
men. The President and his party first
lost their way few miles north of Bal
timore.

SCHOOL HEADS WORK
HALTS VACATION PLANS
Tentative Schedule of Ensuing
Years Plans to Be Made
Before They Go Away.

Although the fifty thousand and more
children of the public schools have al
ready been enjoying their summer vaca-
ton, several of the higher school officials
have not so far had time to think about
theirs. Work of organization for next
year has already been started and before
the higher officials have chance to get
their play time practically all of the
work of the ensuing scholastic year will
be arranged, tentatively at least. This
will include appropriation estimates.
The opening of school always comes on
with rush, of course, no matter how
we'll prepared the officials are to meet the
situation. Not only are there many large
matters which usually loom up. demand
ing immediate attention, but then also
come the proverbial thousand and one"
things which are probably in the sum to-
tai cause for more hard labor and firing
work on the brain than are the big things
1t is a matter of relief to the officials
when they get the new order of things
for the scholastic year tentatively ar
ranged, for this means that only a
few gaps remain to be filled in at the
very beginning of the new schola site
year and then the decks will be clear.
High School Enrolment.
Just as an idea of one of the things
which have to be arranged, it might
be pointed out that 1888 boys and
girls are expected to enter the white
high schools in the fall The word
expect is used, as experience has
proved that many who anticipate going
to the field of higher study do not do
so when the time comes; many decide to
quit school; others find employment
where they believe they can make good
advancement. and still others leave the
city Some of those who do not expect
in the spring to enter the high schools
change their minds by the time school
opens, so these, too. have to be allowed
for in the estimates of enrollments,
but this number is usually very small.
OF the number who have expressed
their int ention of entering high schools
4S9 Will enter the Business High
School, 216 will enter Central High
school, 289 will go to Mckinley Manual
Training School, los will go to East
ern High School and 1874 will enter the
Western High School. The three schools
where academic studies are taught
will have an enrolment only slightly
larger than the Business School, where
practical work is taught. This seems
to show it is said that schools where
bows and girls are taught to do some
one thing without having to go TO col
lege are gaining in favor
