The Petition alleges that Charles Tut

prefaces the blank with this statement:
With a view to setting forth the rate
of wages paid working men and arti

and the cost of living of wage earners,
the foUowing blanks have been pre

for the period covered by blanks and re

and facts thus obtained will be used

State Superintendent Goudy hits is
sued the following decisions during the
past month:
1. The voters of a district at an an
nual meeting of the district may change
the location of the school house site to
any point in the district which may
suit their convenience The distance
to be moved cuts no figure in the case
2. The pay of a teacher is dueat the
ena oi eacn montn, ana unless mere is
a contract for other payment I am un
able to see how the order for the
month's pay can be legally withheld.
3. The action taken by the voters at
an annual meeting with reference to
hiring a male teacher for the district is
merely advisory and the board is not
legally bound by sueh action, it being
the duty-of the board to hire and con
tract with teachers. See section 11,
subdivision 15, of theschool law. ,
4.' A 'district school board has' no authority-by
statute to."1 give the note of
the school district A note signed by
the members of the board is the note of
the individuals and not of the district
5. A school district board cannot
make a legal contract with a teacher
who does not hold a valid certificate,
and members of the board, are liable to
the district fori any money paid out to
teadbers who are not legally qualified.
6. The voters at an annual meeting
have no right to vote to hold no school
during the coming year. It is the legal
duty of the Aboard "to hold such' school.
Such an action by. the .voters at annual
meeting' ii-therefore, -illegal and void.
Any parent residing in Jthe. district who
has children of school age may, in my
opinion, compel the board to make pro
vision for the minimum term for such

7. There is no authority for an ap

Another Biff Express Robbery.
Hougutox, Mich., Sept. 10. The ex
press car of the Mineral Range passen
ger train, which left Hancock at 9
Vclock yesterday morning for Calumet
was held up and robbed by banditts a
half mile from Boston. Tho robbers
secured 575,000 in cash money, intended
for the employes of the Calnmet and
Hecla iron mine, for whom tomorrow
was pay day. The money was drawn
from the First National bank of Hough
ton and the Superior Savings bank of
Hancock.
The express car was in charge of
Messenger R W. Hogan, and thera
were no special guards. The money
was obtained according to the usual
.practice, the day before pay flay at the
big iriine-, and thi thought that there
Were train robbers daring enough to
to make a raid on the valuable treasure
in broad daylight apparently never en
tered the minds of the railroad officials
or of the trainmen. It might well
be supposed that in the train robbery
in Indiana the first of the week, the
acme of such daring exploits was
reached, but it remained for today to
demonstrate that a train can be stopped
and robbed with impunity in the broad
light of day and with little or no at
tempt at disguise.
The train was going along at the
usual speed ant was within half a mile
bf,the little station called Boston, five
miles from here, when a man stepped
into the middle of the track and flag
ged the train. The engineer quickly
applied the brakes, no thought of train
robbers entering his mind; The man
disappeared behind the station house
an-? as the train stopped two wo-ff
passengers got off. 'nt that moment a
liiiasiccrt man jumped on the locomotive
and pointed a revolver at Engineer Nick
Schuler and ordered him to stop. The
engineer thonghthe was fooling or was
a lunatic, but the gun went off, the
bullet whistling past the engineer's left
ear and the engineer knew he was at
the mercy of a desperate man.
The fellow pushed the engineer ihtb
the corner of the cab, grabbed the air
brake lever, and to keep the engine
bloving slowly he opened the throttle
slightly, showing perfect familiarity in
handling an engine.
.. Fireman Sutherland jumped out of
the cab window and was met by two
more of the robbers, who came from
the front part of the engine and fired
at him, ordering him back on the en
gine on pain of instant death. The fire
man had no alternative but to obey.
Two more robbers had in the mean
time got on to the front end of the ex
press car and with a sledge smashed it
the car door. Express Messenger Ho
gan tells tills story:
'I was sitting in my chair with my
feet on a box singing, when I hefrd a
crash and looking that way saw a
masked man covering me with two re
volvers and ordering 'hands up.' There
was another man jusl behind him. I
threw up my hands mighty quick, and
the robbers took my gun away. Then
they demanded the keys of the safe. I
pretended to be looking for the right
key when they threatened ,to kill me
if I did not hurry up. I then opened
the safe and look out the four packages
of currency and one of the robbers
scooped them into a bag he carried.
Backing out of the car door again they
fired two shots, evidently as a signal to
the robber on the train, who ordered
the engineer to go on, saying: 'You
will find a rail pulled up about three
miles ahead." The engineer pulled the
throttle wide open and flew for the
Scola telegraph office, when the news
of the robbery was at once telegraphed
here"
The robbers, leaving tliS train, passed
to the rear and disappeared in the
woods, the one who had the treasure
Waving his hand at the passengers,
who were ignorant of Mrhat had taken
place so recently.
Among the passengers were Hon. E.
D. Ryan and Attorney Looney, and
Teller Fish of the First National bank
of Hancock was in the coach with S40,
000 in currency in his pockets, but the
robbers did not know it.
As soon as the train arrived at Calu
met, the Columet and Hecla mine sent
nearly 100 deputy sheriffs in every di
rection in chase Sheriff Dunn also
Bent deputies out from Houghton and
tug boats were sent along the lake
shore to cut off escape by water. Ev
ery road was closely guarded.
Jack King, the great Cornish wrest
ler; John Kehoe, a sport, and Jack Chal
lew were seen driving very fast into
town about 10 o'clock, and persons near
the Boston station saw a horse corres
ponding in color to theirs tied up near
the station. These men and a man
named Gorman were thereupon arrest
ed, and the clew against them seems to
be a very strong one.
'eal Opens His Campaign.
Newark, O., Sept 16. Hon. Law
rence T. Neal, democratic candidate for
governor of Ohio against Hon. William
McKinley, opened the democratic cam
paign here yesterday afternoon in the
presence of a large and enthusiastic
gathering of democrats of this section
of the state After referring to the ex
isting financial depression. the speaker
declaredcthat tlje McKinley and Sher
man lays werthecauseof the trouble
He said thtpiltfhociatic party was
pledged in Javoot bimetallism and the
repeal Or the purchasing clause
of the JSherman actllc declared
that Kinleyism was the greatest
foe of the prosperity of the peo
ple. McKinley protection means tax
ation favoring the rich. Fcyr sev
eral years the government receipts
had exceeded the expenditure 8100,
000,000. The burden falls upon the
poor people. He declared that the ag
ricultural interests were the principal
victims of protection. In 1860 the farm
ers owned almost half the property of
the country. Now they owned less than
a quarter. The difference measures the
farmers' loss and the manufrcturcrs'
gain. The defeat of the republican
party in Ohio will affirm the judgment
of the people of a free country entered
at the presidential election last year.
It will be the final decision of the
American people. The speaker ap
pealed to the people to vote for -democracy,
the party of .the people, the guar
dian angel of their rights and of their
liberties,.and,thus secure the destruc
tion of monopolists and unjust taxation.

floor, yielded to Mr. Pugh. He said that the
message of tho president calling an extra
session was a declaration in favor of a gold
slandard. If the Sherman law was uncon
ditionally repealed such action would cause
discontent among the toiling millions to
such an extent that they would shake the
country. Ho would never vote for uncondi
tional repeal, but favored any substitute
which carried out the platform of the demo
cratic party. .
Mr. Teller, repiiblleaa, of Culbradd then
resumed his speech begun on Satnrday
against the repeal bill. Asserted, and he
believed it could be demonstrated, that if It
had not been for aprcconccrtcd effort in the
money center of the country to prevent, it,
the 1st of Sentember would have seen better
times in the finances of the country than the

mitted now by all the great financial au
thorities of New York that the panic, was
over. He met one day recently a gentleman
or national reputation aim saiu io mm:
"When will this panic be over?" That gen
tleman replied: "When the men who called
it on, call it off. The bankers of New York
called it on; when they get ready to call It
off. It will come oIT." The calling of con
gress did not relieve the country: in fact the
condition became worse from tne time con
gress was called In extraordinary session.
Mr. Toller said ho would at some other
time give to the senate his conception of the
cause for tho recent distressed condition.
In his opinion It was due to legislative mis
conduct. Mr. Teller next directed himself to stock
operations. A New York paper had .pub
lished daily for some time the daily depre
ciation in valuo of stocks, or the destruction
Of values occasioned by the Sherman law, as
the paper said. The paper had finally got
the amount up to 700,0 0.000. In his opinion
a great many stocks were selling on the
market today for more than they were
worth. Ho cited the Northern Pacific.which
he said had fallen from 7) to 17. It was said
all the great owners connected with it un
loaded when it was 70. That company had
S 50,000.f00of indebtedness; $.i,0 0 000 held by
Germany; a great amount owned in Holland
and England.
HOUSE.
In the house onlhellth. Mr. Murry (rep.,
S, C.) in view of the cyclones which have re
cently devastated the South Carolina coast,
asked for the immediate consideration of a
Joint resolution appropriating 52 O.lOU'to en
able the secretrry or war to purchase rat Ions
and medicines and distribute them among
the sufferers from the August cyclones
against the South Atlantic coast.
Mr. Kilgore dem., Tex.) objected and the
Joint resolution was referred to the commit
tee on appropriations.
Mr. Richardson (dcm., Tenn.), from the
committee on printing, reported back a res
olution providing that all documents and
books ordered by the Fifty-second congress
and remaining undistributed at this time
shall be distributed among the members of
the Fifty-third congress.
Mr. Coom bsfdem., N. Y.) thought that the
resolution encroached upon the rightsof tbe
members of the Fifty-second congress.
Mr. Richardson said that unless the res
olution was adopted the documents which
were published before the first Monday In
December would be distributed to members
who had retired on March 4 and not to the
sitting members.
The resolution was adopt d.
The speaker called the committees for re
ports, but the only one that fell into the
hopper was one authorizing the secretary of "
the treasury to settle the accounts between
the United States and Florida. It was made
by Mr. Hutchinson (dcm., Tcx.i, from the
committee on claims; and itwas placed upon
the private calendar. The house then, on
motion of Mr. Catching, (dem., Miss.) at
12:10, adjourned.

He opposed the unconditional repeal of the

There was less silver in the world today. In

years ago. He foroneobjrcJed to allowing

The calling of the committee-, in the sec

In tho senate on the ltthMr. Faulkner,
democrat, of West Virginia, pubmlttcd an
amendment to the. repeal bill which was
read. It provides first for the coinage of the
tti.tltrkt, f.i t.n .it.,u.4.t .It l.p .InlHilrrh 'tl1,4jt
worth now S17J.000.OJ . at tin' rate of I.OUO.OOO I
per month, and authorized in addition the
purchase of l,f0JX)) ounces per month,
though this amount purchased is not to be
coined until after all the bullion id tliq
treasury is coined, unies-, in the opinion
of the secretary of the treasury the de
mands of tbe country require it. After all
the bullion now in the treasury is coined,
the amendment provides for the monthly
purchase of enough silver to coin 3,000,000
silver dollars until such time as the aggre
gate silver circulation of the country shall
reach sC9,000,000. All silver thus coined and
heretofore coined are to be legal tender.
The repeal hill was then taken up, and Mr.
Daniel, democrat, of Virginia. addressed tho
senate in opposition to the bill. In li-M, lie
said, there were two opinions in Which there
was general concurrence; first, that, the
Sherman law ought to be repealed, and sec
ond, that gold and silver ought to be coined
wlthoutdlscriminatlon orcharge formlnt
age. He thought that these 'ori Current
opinions should now Je embodied in one act.
Alluding to President Cleveland, Mr. Dan
iel said be bad been loyal to "him In 'three
campaigns. He expected In many days of
battle yet to bear his colors and to defend
his course. He would not pay him the trib
ute of the courtier and the flatterer and -ay,
"Behold the brave and honest man who has
convictions." He would Imitate that exam
ple as he understood It and should -show him
and all that the American senator had hK
convictions and was brave, honest and true
to them and would defend them. Ap
nlause.l In conclusion, Mr. Daniel said: "Let us
remedy our financial system with justice to '
ail interests respecting every obligation of i
our public faith as it is interpreted, and let ,
us all stand logetner, witnout any interest,
of section or of class, in the broad spirit of
American brother.-, which gives to the world
the motto. 'Each for All and All for Each,

at Arkansas City, Kan., where tfic" out

that he fired the shot which killed Ex

The men belong to the class known
as 'fakirs" at racing grounds and coun
try faira. They are not known to the
officers of Kansas or the marshals of
Indian Territory, and it is not thought
iiiat rib j" of them have records as des
peradoes or Irain robbers prior to the
affair at Mound Valley. The capture
was made by officers of this county,
who have been on the track of the men
since the robbery, and who will receive
the rewards offered by the "Frisco and
Wells Fargo Express companies, which
amount to 1,300 for each man. The
prisoners will be taken to Cherryvale
and placed in jail there for safe keep
ing as there is considerable danger of
lynching should they remain.

Washington-, Sept. 12. Fo- the pres
ent, at least, the trouble growing out
of the seizure of 3,000 sheep by the
Mexican customs officials on what is
claimed to be Texan soil has been
brought to an end. After Secretary
Grcsham and the president had had
several conferences an agreement was
reached by which it was decided to au
thorize Major Kcycs to surrender to the
Mexican officials. This will leave the
sheep in possession of the owners. The
question of a definite location of the
boundary line will, it is expected, h.i
referred to a mixed commission, which
has had similar problems to unravel
heretofore.
