CHICAGO TEACHERS
PROMISED WAGES
Bankers Come to Rescue in
Agreeing to Help Bank
rupt Board.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October 24.-There were
dollars in sight today for the city'S IA
OOO school teachers, payleSs since April.
BANKERS announced yesterday that
they would come to the rescue of not
only the cash-bankrupt School Board,
but also the city administra ton, in buy
ing recast tax warrants whenever pos
sible
The decision was made after repre-
Sentatives Of the School Board and the
city met with agents of the Continental
Illinois Trust a. Savings. the First Ma
tional, the Central Republic and other
banks.
Felt Collections Uncertain.
For months they have refused to buy
1881 warrants because Of the uncar-
tainty of collection not only of 1881,
but OF 1880 taxes. Accordingly. a
scheme was devised originally by a
group of school teachers TO, the sale of
the more desirable of 1890 warrants,
both city and School Board, held in the
citvs aggregate of funGS.
Legal technicalitieS were involved. in
Guiding the question of the effect of
the rising rates of interest from 2l2 to
4 per cent to per cent Chapman g.
Cutler. municipal bond experts, ruled
Thursday that the rates could be raised
without jeopardizing the value Of the
securities. Their opinion applied to the
sale of sufficient warrants to meet the
Board of Education pay rolls for two
months.
Details Being Drawn.
School Board officials began work
yesterday on legal details of the plan
to obtain 100000 needed for teachers
salaries
Under the plan sanctioned by thu
City Council. the School Board would
raise the interest rates on the warrants
held by the city from 4 TO per cent:
the city would dispose OF them to banks
and private interests and reinvest in
1881 educational warrants.
The city has been unable to collect
its taxes for almost two years because

CHICAGO, October 24-Union mo-
ton picture operators were back to
work in about 100 small theaters, end
ing two months lockout featured by Is
to::lbingS.
The agreement between the operators
and the owners, to run until January
IL, 1888, was signed late yesterday.
Under it the operators take 20 per
cent salary cut, except those who work
in very small houses, where it was
agreed that high expenses and small
revenue made more drastic relief nee
cSsary
Earlier in the day another agreement
was signed with the larger movie
houses, whereby operators also accepted
: 20 per cent reduction in salaries This
agreement also expires January II,
1888.
The union wage scale before the cut

escape that I would take advantage
Of her help"
I would rather be burned alive
dozen times than to escape with
her help
There was a venom in the girls
voice that had never been there be-
fore and Tanar looked at her in
surprise. Il do not understand you,
Stellara,' he said.
Il do not understand myself" said
the girl, and burying her face in
her hands she burst into tears.
Tanar knelt quickly beside her
and put an arm about her. Don't"
he begged; please don't"
She pushed him away from her.
Go away" she cried. Don't touch
me I hate YOU"
Tanar was about to speak again
when he was interrupted by great
commotion at the far end of the
village. There we're shouts and
yells from men, mingled with thun-
derous noise that fairly shook the
ground, and then deep booming Of
drums.
Instantly the men, setting the
stakes in the ground where Tanar
land Stellara were to be burned,
stopped their work, seized their
weapons and rushed in the direction
from which the noise was coming.
