 The arrangement of time that each apprentice or employe will spend in the trade school must be not less than four hours each week. It would be better if it was not less than eight hours each week, and studies so ar ranged as will be the means of giving individual instruction to students rather than following class methods.
 Shauld the company decide to have part-time students in pairs alternate between the shop and the school such plan can be easily arranged. This can either be week about or month about.
 We would request the company to furnish blueprints and other data from the company regarding each ten up.
 We should also have a statement from the company regarding each student enl1rnerating his duties in the capabilities from the foreman and

 Each school will furnish report to the head of the department and the superintendent of motive power each moneh explaining in detail the accom- plishnlents of each student, deport- ment, attendance; and if permission will be granted for the instructors to visit the various departments to ob- serve the work the student is doing in fha aT1xrge et1A I to report on this also.
 Heads Of departments whenever con- venient should visit the school and give a short lecture or as we term it a shop talk to the students explain ing the opportunity the company is giving them and what the company expects the student will do to make best use Of such opportunity and also talk on practical methods of shop work and organization.
 l believe it is the purpose of the company to have supervisor ap-s pointed who will have direct super vision over all apprentices in the system and this department will be glad to co-operate in every way pos- sible to facilitate the work of super vision of such department head.
 In order to plan and organize the most adaptable line of instruction for the railroad service, it would seem desirable to have a committee meet ing to get into detail with the outline of the subjects to be taught and upon notification from the superintendent of motive power,e office of date when the committee meeting can be held, either the writer or directors of schools selected to attend this meet ing win respond and give. such time as. as necessary for the formulation of courses.

Law Experts Deny Wilson
Has Right to Sign Bills

From The Tribunes Washington Bureou
WASHINGTON, June 11.-Takins
issue with the ruling of the Attorney
General that the President has ten
days IN which to sign bills enacted by
the last Congress, experts in constitu-
tional law here to-day declared that the
bills died with the Congress.
Some Of those who differ with the
opinion of the Attorney General quote
decision of the United States Su-
preme Court in the La Abra case, wae re
the same question was raised as to the
right of the President to sign meas
ures after Congress had adjourned.
The decision of the court was that the
President did not have the power.
Only one precedent is found where a
President did sign bill after Congress
adjourned and it became law. This
bill was signed by Lincoln on March IL,
1863. 1t provided for the collection of
abandoned property and correction of
fraud in insurrectionary districts with
in the United States. The following
year the Judiciary Committee brought
in an elaborate report, in which it was
stated that the President had no right
to sign that measure.

The break came Unexpectedly over
the Minister of Wars deeree on army
discipline, which question was raised
In the National Assembly yesterday by
the Christian Socialists.
1t is believed new coalition Cabinet
will be formed pending the election.
The crisis was fastened by external
events and the Gratz incident recently,
when gendarmes fired into crowds dem
onstrating against profteering in food,
killing many. The reactionary anti
Semitic demonstration of Monday was
followed by Moarchist agitation.
Reports of strong movement in
Tyrol, Salzberg and portions of upper
Austria to join Bavaria and create a
Catholic kingdom under Prince Rup-
precht also contributed to the fall of
the government. Innsbruck newspapers
have said that a Bavarian officer who
was active to this end was in posses
sion of 10000 rifles and had received
much money.
Al protest against these reaction
airy events the Socialists decided to at
tempt to throw responsibility for the
government upon the Christian So
cialists and await the outcome.

Municipal buses were operating in
Brooklyn last night despite the de-

day upholding Justice Cropsey in issu-
ing a preliminary injunction to the
Brooklyn City Railway Company re-
straining the city from operating buses
parallel to its lines. Colonel Emory F.
Dyckman, of counsel for the railroad
company, declared last night that if
Mayor Hylan and his associates were
"law abiding citizens" they would have
ordered the suspension of the buses
the moment they heard of the decision
of the court
Colonel Dyckman said he proposed to
have the individual bus drivers served
with a notice of the injunction to-day
and expected the buses would be dis
continued Immediately.
Corporation Counsel O'Bren inter
preted the decision along technical
lines, and said last night that if it
was necessary in order to continue the
operation of buses the city would ap-
ply to the courts for further stay in
the matter.
The Corporation Counsel pointed out
