Tony Latona, former Western

at the behest of MT Bria and was seconded by Commissioners Miller and Bergin. At yesterdays meeting Dr Thomas J. Condon was delegat- ed to contact the teachers associa- tion for an expression of opinion.
 The communication signed by Miss Kennedy on behalf of the as- sociation this morning said that in formation had been received by that body that forces and influ-
 ences outside the association, were sponsoring the movement" The letter was non-committal, and ex- pressed the willingness of the teachers to abide by the decision of the group, intimating at the same time that many of the teachers
 were in favor of the holiday.
 Beardsley Withdraws Motion
 Commissioner Harry Beardsley later withdrew his motion to ad-
 journ, at the same time expressing
 his regret that he had aroused the
 fighting ire of Commissioner
 Bowes." Members of the board
 arose from the table without the formality of adjourning, while sev-
 eral were still attempting to gain the floor for discussion.
 After the session pr Condon an- nounced that the evening school sessions scheduled for the 31st would be deferred. The schools
 will open January Sd and the extra
 day will be made up the following l month, he said.
 After the session Commissioner Florence B. Webster raised the question of whether or not Com
 missioner Beardsley was eligible to attend. She said she was not sure that he had been sworn in together with the other members of the
 board early this year.

The chair recog- nized Commissioner Florence B Webster, who then expressed the opinion that many of the teachers from out of town who were eligible to join the Waterbury Teachers association had not done so be. cause of their fear of becoming involved in local politics" and that any communication from the or ganization could not be, considered as representative of the majority of the teachers. She said it was her belief that many of the teachers were afraid to take an active part in the controversy.

 At this point Commissioner Mar tin Scully said that most of the out of town teachers were mem bers of the local association. He said that during his entire term of service with the board, no suspi- cion of politics" had ever entered into the business connected with the school department.

PROPERTY OWNERS REQUEST RELIEF
800 Applications Filed This Year-2,2OO Re-
 corded Year Ago

Only five hundred property own CTS have filed appeals with the assessors this year from valuations set by the board. The period for filing appeals closed last night. Last year there was a total of D. 200 appeals recorded. Therefore, this years figure is considered very good.
 This situation is due largely, it is believed, to the fact that the grand list on which the 1885 appropria- tions and tax rate have been fig ured Is about million and half lower than it was last year.
 Despite the drop in the grand list. the administration of Mayor Frank Hayes has set up tax quarter of a mill, for the coming rate of 3o mills, a decrease of a year. The assessors were not busy at all this year handling appeals, as is shown by the big difference in the number of appeals filed i'll December of 1893 and this month.
 Tl<ose who appealed to the board of assessors will be notified short ly of the decision of that body They will then have the right to appeal, if not satisfied, to the board of appeals which will sit during the month of January.

Meeting To-day Fails To Upset Schedule;
 Walsh Breaks Tie
Precipitates Verbal Fireworks Teachers Assn Voted to Abide By Boards Decision

Teachers of the public schools of the city must return to their class es on December 31. Tn special session of the board of education held this morning at Crosby high school, marked by verbal pyrOtech- nics on the part of several of the members, the present schedule which calls for school to be held on that date was left unchanged.
 Following the reading of a com- munication signed by Miss Mary Kennedy, vice president of the Wa terbury Teachers association, act ing in the absence of Miss Daisy Lord, president, who is out of the city, in which the teachers agreed ito abide by the decision of the board, the matter was put to a vote.
 Four Vote "Yes'
 Four of the eight members of the board voted yes on the ques- tion of releasing the teachers from their classes on the 3st, while three voted against the proposal. Those voting favorably were Com- missioners Webster, Bowes, Miller and Bria. Voting against the mo- tion were Commissioners Beards- ley. SculIy and Freedman. John J.. Waleh, acting chairman of the bonrd, voted against changing the schedule, thus deadlocking the vote.
 Commissioners Miller raised the question of a violation of parlia- mentary law, claiming that Mir Walsh had voted after the roll had been called, showing the vote to be to 3 in favor of the holiday, but MT Walsh maintained that his vote was in order.
 Motions to Adjourn
 At this time Commissioner Harry J. Beardsley introduced a motion to adjourn, stating that the entire meeting was a violation of the principles of parliamentary rule, in that the original request of the teachers was not presented in pro- per form.
 Protesting against what she termed MT Beardsley's attempt to take charge of the meeting, Mrs Gertrude Bowes threatened to re- sign from the board.
 ''Takcs Special Meeting"
 Tt takes a special meeting of the board to get Judge Beardsley here," Mrs Bowes said. "The only time we ever see him is on some occasion such as the present one and then he does not wish other members of this body to present their arguments.
