ONE BY ONE ,
The Links are Forged to Draw thi

The following frjm The Ohicngi
Tribune is another proof of theinevit
able , that is , the bringing into thi
city of all the Iowa trunk lines :
"Tho Chicago it Northwestern rail
way announces that it lias , in conneo
tion with the Union Pacific railway
esjabilished .1 fast freight line botweoi
Dhicago nnd Denver nnd other pomti

oaded in Chicago in nolid car loads

without transfer or breaking bulk a
, ho Missouri river The same ia trui
of oast-bound froighf , it being laadct
in solid car loadu in Denver und tut
through to Chicago without transfer ,
Whether this arrangement is duo tc
the construction of an indopendcnl
line to Denver by thd Chicago , J3ur
lington & Qumcy , or whether it is a
general urnuignmunt made with all
the Iowa lines could not bo learned
last evening. The likelihood is , how
ever , that it' ' ia u general arrangement
which applies to all the lines , and thai
it was agreed upon at 'tho'meeting ' of
the Iowa pod held in St. Louis yes
terday. That such is the case is indi
cated by the announcement made by
the Chicago , BnrlingtoiI'&Quincy last
evening thatit'haa'nlso ' established n
fast freight line 'for all pointa'in ' Colorado
rado which ia now in full working
order , and that it givea shippers the
choice of three routes , all of which
make very fast time. This of course
moans that * the Burlington runs itt
fast freight lines over the Union Pa

Topeka & Santa Fo , its own line tc

pleted. "

THE SCHOOL BOARD.
A Hot Contest for the Secrotaryshl
-No Solution Visible.
The second meeting of the Board c
Educatiod was hold Tuesday , fc
the purpose of balloting for a permn
nont secretary , the candidates boinj
as before , Mr. Clias. M. Connoyci
retiring secretary , and F. J. McShanc
Esq. At Monday night's mooting
cloven ballots had been taken , the respective
spoctivo aides standing Long , Point
and Connoycrvs. Anderson , Forgusc :
and McShano.
It appears that in voting on ono u
those ballots , Mr. Point * , who wa
keeping tally , inadvertently tore 01
from hia tally shoot the iianvo of Me
Shane , when ho meant to take that o
Oonnoyor , and voted it. The rosul
was a surprise party , nnd it is cl.iirr.oi
that the result was announced am
McShano declared elected before th
mistake was discovered. A motion ti
reconsider was made nnd carried by i
vote bf four to two , Ferguson votinj
for reconsideration. McShano virtu
tually acquiesced in this action b ;
voting on subsequent ballots.
Tuesday McShnno presented hi
bond nnd claimed the election , on tin
Arength of Points' mistake , but tin
bond was refused. Ho then deelarec
his intention to carry the case inti
the courts nnd claimed at least tin
position of temporary secretary.
It being decided that McShnno luu
been elected temporary secretary fo
but ono evening , the board proccodet
to ballot for a temporary secretary
Connoyer being elected by a vote o
four to two.
The president declined to rule 01
the disputed ballotof Monday evening
Four ballots were taken for pcrma
nent secretary , with the same resul
ns on Monday night , and thi
board finally adjourned to meet at f
o'clock Thursday ovenins.
McShnne , who claims the eleetior
ns permanent secretary , has securec
possession ot the teauhors' pay rol
and will retain it. This will prevent
the paying oil of the teachers and
janitors to-day. Ho claims to be
acting under legal advice. The fighl
haa become a very interesting ono ,
and no settlement appears possible ex
cept by the election of an outsider.
THE CONTRACTORS' STORY-
They Cannot Afford to Raise the
Woges of Plaaterers Higher.
Ono of the prominent contractors
in the city called at TUB BEE office
yesterday to make a statement in
regard to the atriko of the plasterers
for a raiae of wages from § 4.50 to § 5.
The men claim that at the time of the
recent labor troubles their wages were
raised to $4.50 with the promise
that their demand of $5 per day would
be fully complied with on May 1st , on
wiiich day they failed to como ta
time.
time.Tho
The contractor ( states that at the
time of the March strike they vol
untarily raised the rates to § 4.50 pci
day , which is all they can nflbrd nt
the price under which their contracts
are taken. This is he claims higher
than the ruling rates elsewhere in
cities of this size , and unless the men
nro willing to work at ruling figures
it willbe impossible to do any building.
Ho further says that there
are more plasterers in the
city than they would make out ,
and that all but the union men nro
willing to work at present rates. Ho
does not desire to send away for plas
terers , nor yet.can he pay § 5 and go
on with his contracts. His ( inn raised
the price of day lubor io $2 nmoim
their men who do heavy work for the
brick-layers and plasterers at the lime
uf the labor troubles , nnd they are al
ways willing to pay living prices and
io the best they can by their men ,
uid this fact they think ought to be
appreciated.

) laces can bo located. For this very
eason it is evident that no two streets
hould boar the same name or
lumber , Sherman is undoubtedly
. good name , bat it is al-
nest too much of a good
hing when there wore two avenues
nd ono street , in this city , known
> y that namo. Sherman avenue , No.
, is a continuation of Sixteenth
treot , and , it is claimed , is the best
ntitled to the name , by reason of
taving first adopted it.
From unknown reason' the people
esiding on St. Mary's avenue , in the
icinity of its interstotion with Park
venue , have changed the name to
Iherman avonuo. Wo do not pretend to
ay to whem the name belongs ox-
lusively ; but we do say that it is a
roat inconvenience to thu public
Ve have heard a great many com
laints from people who have been
ent to either ono locality or the other
nly to discover that they wore on
Iruly in the wrong place. To add
till riioro .to the confusion there is n
herman street running between 18th
nd 20th streets , parallel to Paul.
! von when ono is known as an avenun
nd the other a street there will be
lany mistakes made by people who
0 not happen to bo well acquainted
ith the city.
