More. Children Than Kvor.
"Mind you , I don't State that Council

there are a great many more children
in the city than there wore a year ago ,
but whether or not this rule holds good
as far as the grown people are con
cerned you can judge for yourself. "
The speaker was Prof. MoNaughton ,
superintendent of the public schools ,
and the reply was in answer to a quos-
regarding the attendance in the public
schools of the city.
'Our enrollment is fully 800 more
tlfnn it was a year ago , and our average
attendance is considerably over 200
greater. This represents an actual in
crease in population of at least 1,600.
"When the question of erecting a now
school building was being agitated , sev
eral of our citizens thought there was
no need of an eightoon-room building ,
but it was built , anil now every room ,
'
with a single exception , is occupied ,
and , that one will bo before very long.
Xhoro are a great many children in the
city just about to start to school , and
new schools must ho opened to accom
modate them , It keeps us busy prepar
ing for them , but wo are very well
fixed at present in the way of oulldings.
Still the rapid increase is one of the
straws that show which way the wind
blows.1' '

The state of Iowa has a law making
a port-on having in his possession any
Texas cattle , which have not been win
tered north of the southern boundary
of Missouri and KatiMis , liable for any
damages that may accrue from allowing
them to run nt largo , and thereby
spieading the disease known as Texas
fever.
A suit was commenced some time ago
by 1' . C. Kimmish against ,1. J. Hall and
lienry Tienkon , claiming about $ -5,000
damages for loss of cattle , which got the
Texas fever on account of Texas cattle
which Ball and Tien ken had brought
into this state and allowed to run at
largo in Union township , IlarrUon
county.
To their petition the defendants de
murred on the ground that the state of
Iowa was undertaking by this law to
regulate and interfere \\itliinterstato
commerce , and that the Iowa statute.
was in conllict with the constitution of
the United States relative to the privi
leges and immunities of eiti/.ons of the
bcvoral states.
Judge Love , of the United States cir
cuit court , whoa the case came up here ,
Mistained tile demurrer , and the ca o
was then taken to the United States supreme
premo court. Its decision as now given
reverses the decision given by .ludgo
Love , virtually deciding that the Iowa
law is valid.
The court , after touching lightly
upon the numerous theories ns to what
is meant by ' 'Texas" cattle and what
cantos the ' 'Texas' ' fever , said :
"That cattle coining from those sec
tions of. the country ( Texas. Mexico ,
Arkanias , Indian Territory , etc. ) dur
ing the spring and summer months are
often infected with a contagious and
dangerous fever , ib a notorious fact ; as
is is also the fact that cold weather.
such as is usual in the winter north of
the southern boundary of Missouri and
Kansas , destroys the virus of the dis
ease , and thus removes all danger of in
fection. It is upon the-io notorious facts
that the legislation of Iowa for the ex
clusion from their limits of these cattle ,
unless tlio have passed a winter north ,
is based.
' ' unable the
'We are to appreciate
force of the objection , that such legis
lation is in conllict with the paramount
authority of congress to regulate inter
state commerce. Wo do not see that it
has any tiling to do with commerce ; it is
only levelled against allowing diseased
Texas cattle , held within the state , to
run at large. The ease is , therefore.
reduced to this , whether the lame state
may not provide that whoever permits
diseased cattle in his possession
to run at large within its
limits shall be liable for
any damages caused by the spiead of
the disease occasioned thereby ; and
upon that we do not entertain the
slightest doubt. There is no denial of
any right and privileges to citi/.ons
of other states which are accorded to
citi/ons of Iowa. No one can allow dis
eased cattle to run at large in Iowa
without being held responsible for the
damages caused by the spread of disease
thereby ; and the clause of the constitu
tion declaring that the citi/cns of each
state shall be entitled to all the privi
leges and immunities of citS'/cns in thu
several does nonresident
states not give -
dent citizens of Iowa any greater privi
leges and immunities in that state than
her own citizens there enjoy. So far as
liability is concerned for the act men
tioned , citizens of other states and citi
zens of Iowa stand upon the same foot
ing. "

"It looks now as if St. Paul's church
was going to keep its rector , " remarked
Rev. J. T. Maekay as ho handed in the
usual church notice.
"Is the debt provided forV"
"No , not fully , but enough hay boon
raised to give-1 assurance that the
needed balance will bo secured , "
A meeting of the vestry was hold
yesterday afternoon. ( t was reported
that 97,000 of the desired $8,000 Lad
been pledged , and there is little doubt
but that tlio rest will bo secured. A
communication has boon sent to Rod
ham , Mass. , asking the church there to
release Mr. Maekay from his acceptance
of the rectorship of that parish. The
vestry hero has reconsidered its action
by which his resignation was accepted ,
and the church machinery is being re
versed as rapidly as possible to put the
relationships hack to .their former and
desired condition.
Relieved somewhat of the financial
burdens which have rested upon him ,
Rev. Mr. Maekay will doubtless bo eon-
tent to remain here. IIo will bo able
to devote more time and strength to
other departments of church work , and
thus matters will bo adjusted more sat-
isfactorially to all. It will bo gratifying
to many outside of the church , as well
as in accordance with the desire of the
church folks themselves , to have Mr.
Maekay remain a resident of Council

"Those two missing stub books are
found and their hiding place was not
quite so mysterious as some of the local
papers intimated , " .said an olllcial at
the city building yesterday.
Tlio books to which reference was
made , wore receipt stubs dating from
May , 18S7 , to May , 1S&8 , and wore not
to bo found at the time of the investiga
tion of the books and accountsbf Deputy
City Clerk Burke , after ho had disap
peared. Onooflho local papers , that
lias been trying to make a great deal of
political capital out of the altair , an
nounced that these books had "di -
appeared is some unaccountable and
mysterious manner , and it is impossible
to tell how much of a defalcation is
covered up by their absence. " it also
stated that "it will probably never be
known how much money Burke getaway
away with , as those missing stub books
represented a large amount of money ,
and tlio share appropriated by tne de
puty could not bo oven surmised. "
Tlio long lost books were found yes
terday by Deputy Cleric Frank True , in
the boolc rack in the superior court
room , where all the city records are
kept. They had been placed in one of
the compartments , and had been pushed
back by larger volumes , and had not
been noticed in the hasty search through
the record case. Tlio investigating
committee immediately went to work to
cheek thorn up , and found thatalthough
the stubs represented over $1,000 paid
to the deputy , there was missing but
$27. The kielcors watched eagerly for
the result , ahd wore unable to conceal
their disappointment when it was made
known. It put an end to that mystery
thai they had found so pleasant to talk
about , and .supplied the missing link
necessary to establish the exact amount
missing. No books or iupor.s are now
wanting to interfere with a complete
checking up of the affairs of the ollico ,
and the exact amount of the missing
deputy's defalcation can bo definitely
ascertained.
The report submitted by the investi
gating committee is to the ellect that
the shortage is nearly $2jOO. ( Clerk
Burke will have the privilege of ap
pointing a competent man to again go
over the books to see that the report of
the council's committee is correct. It
is understood that this work will bo
performed by Mr. William Siedentopf.

The Growlr-i-i.
"Stir up the animals , Charley , and
bring out those that growl , ' " said Judge
Aylcsworth yesterday morning to Jailor
White , as hu took a parting whill of a
"Senator , " and opened the police docket
with a grace and dexterity born of long
and continued practice. "Charley" did
ns directed , and every inmate of the
cage was evidently a growler , at least
eacii bore evidence of having "rushed
the growler" to a very considerable de
gree , as they wore marched out und ar
ranged in line for judicial inspection.
ThomaH II. Jones had growled times
almost without number , and had made
biich a racket that ho svas lined $7.00.
R. link or was another who had
growled indelinltely , but ho insisted
that his mutterlngs were all with bated
breath , and stated that he had created
no disturbance. The court was of the
opinion that his breath was whisky-
tainted , but nevertheless continued the
case for additional evidence.
Charles McBrldp was a vagrant who
had emitted one single , solitary growl
and ho was ordered to make tracks for
Nebraska jungles as fast as his logs
would carry him.
Dan Rhodes and Jake Washington
brought up the rear of the possession.
They were locked up for disturbing the
peace on upper Broadway. Jake was
somewhat disligurod when the ofllcor
arrohlod him , nnd his appearance was
but little improved yesterday mot ning.
A portion of his right cheek was miss
ing , and his nose resembled the back of
a dromedary. Ho was fined $8.10 for
submitting to such injuries , and Rhodes
wiw fined W.OO for inllicting them. The
latter was able to liquidate , but Jacob
had to meander back into the box ,

The members of the Chicago Base
Ball club , both as Cliicagoans and ball
players , have no reverence for anti
quity. When iSnpoleon was in Egypt
be stood in awed failonoo before the
solemn majesty of the forty centcry old
sphinx. The members of the Chicago
club , when brought into the presence
of this impassive mystery of the desert ,
throw hard balls at it ami hit it in the
eye. Tlio successful marksman was ap
plauded. The sphinx has scon and suf
fered much. Tlio Persian , the Ron.an ,
the Arabian , the Turk , have swept past
her. She has over had to stand the
eritieislinspoction of the British tourist.
But never during the long years for
which she has ga/.cd upon the yellow
sands has she boon hit in the eye
"plugged , " the ollendor would call it
by a Chicago ball-player. One would
think as love turned Galatea from mar
ble to llesh , hate would have changed
the stouo sphinx to a living and
vengeful woman. But no transformation
mation came , and the vandals escaped
unharmed asot. , . But while it may bo
safe for ball players to amuse them
selves thus with antiquity in the desert ,
it will not do for thorn to play such
merry games when they have reached
Europe. The playful pastime of pitch
ing a ball at the statue of St. Peter's at
Rome , or the bron/e which commemo
rates Arminius , might lead to disagree
able complications involving the need
of much diplomatic skill. It is to bo
liopjd that tlio kindly olliccs of the secretary -
rotary of state will not have to bo in
voked in a month or so to rescue from a
French or English dungeon a merry
Chicagoan who has been pelting the
imago of Napoleon or of Kelson. Besides -
sides we do not want the reputation of
this city utterly ruined abroad ; wo do
not wish to bo known as a place whoso
residents can beef and pelt the aged
Sphinx , and do nothing elVio of special
note. The ball club mi sttjo on its good
behavior during the restj of its stay
