TEACHER MOTHERS
PROBLEM STILL OPEN
Only Mrs. PeiXOttO's Case Seems
Likely Of Immediate
Action.

Although State Comm ssloner OF Edu-
cation Finley has decided that teacher
mothers who have been dismissed are to
be reins;ated. no step was taken at the
Board OF Education meeting yesterday
afternoon 10 renstate them Action on
the subject was deferred TIL the next
meeting. The report OF the special COM
mitsee on teacher-mothers which was
presented to the board at the last meet
Ing and which makes a two years alb
sence obligatory for a teacher mother. was
sent back to the joint committee on
teacher-mothers and bylaws to be
brought out at the next meeting

While Commissioner Flnley's decision

he had received telegram from the Com
missioner stating that the decision re-

Is not sure there will be place for her

Members OF the board differ as TO the
fate of those teacher-mothers who re-
signed rather than appeal TO Albany.
President Churchill said Personally
think they should all go back. I don't
know IL they can go back to their old
places, as those are already filled, and
IL would require some manipulation TO

Through an order signed yesterday oy
Surrogate Cohalan II became known that
Miss Sarah Elizabeth .Coync. daughter "

show that Judge Coyne's consent TO the
adoption Of his daughter had not been
obtained as he could not be found. II
was pointed out TO the Surrogate. that
the fathers consent was unnecessary since
the divorce decree granted to Mrs. Eliza

South Dakota, gave the custody OF the
daughter TO Mrs. LOCKE. although the de-
cree provided that her father might see
her at all proper times not inconsistent
with her educational interests"
Through the papers the fact is mado
public for the first time that two days
after Mrs. coyne got her divorce she was
married to Mr.. Locke in Chicago. Judge
Coyne did not lose great deal OF time
in marrying again, for OH June .. 1905,
he was welded TO Miss Mary Loyols
