HAMILTON IS OH HIS METTLE.
Ho Proposes to Know Who Is Snperintandoat

\VORK \ ON THE KELLOM HAS STOPPED.

Mr. Hamilton , superintendent of school
buildings I'.tid property , has locked horns
with Bell ft HerllnghnfT , the architects who
furnished plans lor the Kcllom school , and
lias run ngnlnst something that looks line the
stubborn opposition of certain mombora of
the board.
All ! o'clock yesterday afternoon nil work
on the nuw Kollom school was stopped and
there It will stand until next Tuesday.
The causa of the shut down seems to have
been a clash ot orders and the refusal of tha
contractor to KO any further until ho could
consult the school board and learn beyond all
qiiosUoti of a doubt who Is the boss of the
building.
Day before yesterday Mr. Hamilton gave
directions with reference to the si/o of some
frames for ventilators that have to bo put In
the wall for the Smead system of heating and
ventilation. When the frames wore delivered
ut tbo building yesterday Mr. Hamilton
observed that tuny were smaller than
ho hud ordered. When ho asked the
workmen why the change had bcou made
they said that. Mr. BcrllngholT Had Informed
them lhat the frames had to bo smaller , and
they had followed BorlinghofTs Instructions.
Mr. Hamilton decided right there and then
to load off with a shoulder hit ana have the
matter brought to a head , so ho Informed Mr.
Mcngodoht. the contractor , that the frames
should neb be allowed to po Into the building
and the work upon that part of the building
was ut once stopped.
Soon after this Mr. Hamilton said he
noticed that the ground was soft in the
I'ottom of the excavations where soma
of Iho footings were being put in and he or
dered Mr. Mengcdoht to have the ditches dug
deeper until solid onrtli was reached and told
him that he would bo allowed extra for the
extra brick work necessary to make the foot
ings solid ana socuro.
"I have been told by members of the
board , " replied Mr. Mengodoht , ' 'that I
should not obey yourordnrs to do anything of
that kind , and I will not do It until i iiml out
from the board whctnor you nave any author *
ity to have tills done. "
' 'Then you would bolter leave those foot-
ulono , " said Mr. Hamilton , and all the work
was stripped.
Mr. Hamilton said last night that Mr.
Mengodoht could have continued upon some
\\orknbout the building ubout which tbero
was no dispute , but ho'seemed determined to
shi'.t down the whole business and wait for
instructions from the board.
"I want this matter settled myself , " said
Mr. Hamilton. "The board has appointed
me to superintend the construction of that
building and I am going to do it 1 don't
propose to have the architects continually
poking around among the contractors.
J am convinced that there are members of
the board who are helping this trouble along
because they did not succeed in having a
friend nnnnintfirt tn snnorintmiil Mm hnllninc- .
There is no need of the architects getting
? 3SO for superintending the construction of
this building , nlthouch I understand they are
poing to claim it. This whole matter has got
to Do settled at the meeting next Monday
night. "
Hell & BerllnghoiT furnished Mr. Mcrge-
tlohtwithnn estimate last , week , but the board
saw the trap in tlmo to escape and
had Mr. Hamilton furnished an esti
mate upon which the board paid
Mongcdoht ? 1XI2 ! , Boll & Berlinghoft
wore to receive ft per cent for furnishing the
plans and 1 per cent for superintending the
erection of the building in case the board de
cided to let thorn superintend it. It is un
derstood that the architects will try to hold
the board for the 1 per cent , although no
special contract or understanding to
the effect that they should superintend
the erection of the building has been mndo
with the board. The building ivill cost about
! S,000. The architects have already been
paid * 1,100 for the nlnns. In case they can
hold the board for the 1 per cent for superin
tending they will gel about 5"SO more , if not ,
they will bo entitled to only auout $100 moro.
"Want to Kniso His I'ny , Too.
It Is rumored among certain members of
the school board that tin effort will be raado

The llrst organized effort In the Interest o
Cleveland's boom In the northwest was made
at n secret meeting of politicians at llio Grand
Pucillo iho other day. Thu nuv.Ulng took
pluco under Ihe auspices of U. U. Woodward ,
secretary of IhoTarlff UaCorm lo-gdo of Now
York , and resulted In the formation of n
northwestern auxiliary leautio with Ur.
Wendell A. Anderson of Lacnmu iw president
und B. L. Harding of Des Molucs secretary.
lr. Anderson was mlnUlcr to Denmark under
the Cleveland administration , mid for a num
ber of years was chairman of the Badger
slalo democratic central committee. There
were present also Edward II. Hunter , chair
man of jho executive commllteo of the Iowa
domocrailc state central committee ; Chair
man Fuller of the lown slate central com-
uiittco and olhcrs.
Secretary Woodward opened proceedings
by n speech of considerable duration , which
began with thu necessity of carrying the tar
iff issue into the homes of the northwest and
wound up with Cleveland. Mr. Woodward's
effort was especially pleasing to the Iowa
men. They were generous In their expres
sions of approval and incidentally remarked
that a good many of the faithful out their
wny were coupling the name of the predes
tined Now Yorker with that of Governor
Horace Boios. Secratary Snialloy of the
Minnesota democratic committee was hardly
loss ardent in his support of Cleveland , but
the Illinois delegation was very apathetic.
The spirit of tlio immortal 101 Is abroad iu
the land. Even Chairman Phclps , who has
heretofore been tin ardent Cleveland man ,
hadn't a word to say and declined lo commit
himself when a personal appeal was made
to him for his views. Then n
Palmer man in a carefully worded
litllo speech , in whlcli ho emphasized
the fact that for twenty-fire years the demo
cratic party had been supporting eastern
candidates , suggested that It might bo a good
idea to follow the example of the republicans
and select a western man for the head of the
ticket. Although he declared that Cleveland
should have his heart } ' support if ho wcro the
nominee , he even took the liberty of doubting
whether lhat ( ronlleman rotild carry his own
slalo owiim lo Iho bitterness of the factional
lights being waged thoro.
To prevent any further expressions of this
sort Mr. Woodward deftly brought Iho at
tention of the gulhnring back lo Iho fact that
it had been called to discuss the subject of
forming a northwestern auxiliary of the Now
York tariff reform league and as this was a
subject upon which everybody could ngroo
harmony once moro brooded over their de
liberations aud In due tlmo Iho nortluvostcrn
auxiliary of the tariff reform league of
New York was born. Mr. Woodward has
probably explained by this tlmo to the wise
men in the east that the west is not rising us
QUO man to do their prophet honor.
Uncle Jerry la Making Hay.
It was not altogether to chase the deadly
trichinl into his native loir or to arrange for
the reorganization of bis weather dispensary
that the head of the agricultural bureau
made his present western trip. Ho slopped
off in Chicago on his way lo his old homo in
Wisconsin and ut the same titno there hap
pened into Iho cily Henry C. Payne and ox-
Senator John C. Spoonor and a conference
was hold between the three. The fact that
Wisconsin , with her big block of voles , is
reached very near the end in Iho alphabeti
cal calling of states , always gives tlio Badger
delegation a great level-ago in all national
conventions. It was Wisconsin's vote that
nominated Gartleld and gave Timothy
Howe of Green Bay a place in his
cabinet ; it placed Blaino's name at the
head of the ticket and has performed the
same ofllco for Hnraison , a service which
was duly acknowledged In the appointment
of Uncle Jerry. It Is said that tin secretary
will again go lo the convention us a favorite
sou. With a solid delegation behind , n
presidential nomination is among tbo possi
bilities , but failing in this ho will bo once
moro in a position to pluco ttio successful
aspirant under lasting obligations.

The tenacity with which the average dem
ocrat clings to an idea , especially If that idea
bo the securing of a public ollk-o finds
another illustration in the case of John A.
King of this cily who reconlly resigned from
thu drainage board. King was exceedingly
anxious to no the second choice of the " 101"
last winter should it bo necessary lo abandon
Palmer and had things so arranged
that had Palmer been dropped ho
would have secured the vote of almost
the entire Cook county delegation. Kiin

to wait until 1S91. wheu Senator Cullom's
term oxplros. This arrangement , doesn't
take into account the possibility thatSonator
Cullom himself may bo called up higher anil
thus create a vacancy before that time. It is
recognized that with Senator Palmer from
Springfield tbo Chicago democrats will
bo entitled to the sonatorshlp if
they can got it. Stale Treasurer
