ThD school board mot again at 10 o'clock '
yesterday morning to concludothounflnlshcd
hustncss olthosassloa the night boforo. It
was evident at the first glance that some
thing had transpired , The mobile faces of a
majority of thomernbcrslndteitcdthata so
lution of tlio dlflleully between them nnd * .bo
principal had boon discovered , and that It
wns at lenst satisfactory to tbcin. Their so
lution \vnsannounccd later on , tmdlt is some-
thingof nnaturo that will create a sensa
tion , not only in the city but In educational
clrclci throughout tbo entire state. It was
simply the effort to cover up the quurrcl by
the summary dismissal of both the superin
tendent and the principal of the high school ,
B After n little tltno bad been consumed In
the nllowancc of some of the small monthly
bills the motion calling for the resignation of
1'rof , Stevens was recurred to. When the
board adjourned at 11 o'clock on Friday
night President Sterwart and members
Illaxslm , Wuito nnd Hunter had placed
themselves on record in favor of the resolu
tion dismissing the contumacious professor ,
butIt wa * Mr , Hunter's motion to adjourn
that was canted by the votes of Wells ,
Sehoeiitf-en , lllaxslm and Ms own. This
was looked upon at the tinw as evidence of
some secret understanding between these
fretitletnen which required n little more tlino
for completion , "Whether they bait a confer
ence or not subsequently is iiotkaown , but
they came into the mectingyesterdnyiiiora-
lug with n clear understanding of what waste
to transpire. When the effort -\viis made to
pass these resolutions Mr. I-Iuntcr offered the
following us n substitute :

niOMil of I'rof. Arthur Movcns nsnrhiclpal of
tliohlKli whoulof filil ; city.
In support Ins his motion Jlr. Hunter said
that as the subject was one of great Import
ance , and for fear of misconstruction and mis
representation of what ho had to say concern-
In git , he hud put his remarks in writing and
desired to have his sentences made apartof
thoofllclid record. "This board , " ho said ,
"is now confronted vlth tins unfortunate
state of affairs a fierce , irrepressible and Ir
reconcilable conlli'ct is now being carried on
between I'rof. McN'uufihton as superintend
ent and I'rof. Stevens as principal of the high
school. The conlllct lias created factions.
Friends of both have arrayed themselves on
their respective sides , and wir und no com
promise is the battle cry. 1 say Jlerco be
cause the adherents of both have worked
themselves into a fever heat , und quarrels are.
frequent , as shown by the meeting last night.
1 say Irrepressible- because It comes up In
every shnpo and form , and Is
iudlssolubly connected with almost
every proposition advanced for the
Interests of the schools , 1 s.iy irreconcilable
because every effort toadjust the difficulties
has failed. It is crimination nnd recrimina
tion , charges and counter charge ? . Some of
these clmrtrcs nro now n mutter of record.
Retraction h Impossible , and thoivforoan
apology made by either ccntloman would ho
an Insult. 'Jhcroforo I say thu discharge of
onontidthc retention of the other would lead
but to disaster. Inowdecllno as a member
of the hoard to go Into any investigation of
these charges. Tlio evil has already been
done. It cannot bo undone. The predica
ment In which tbcso gentlemen lliid them
selves is on oof their own milling1. Incom
patibility of temper and contrariety of opin
ion sooins to bo their lot. .Alter careful and
thoughtful consideration of the subject ,
and niter using every endeavor to
settle thU dmlculty , I am firmly con
vinced there Is no solution of the
present problem , no way to protect the
schools and save them from Injury , but to
obtain the resignations of both these gentlo-
mea. Tor these reasons I present this reso
lution , and for the same reason I as It Its
adoption. "
Messrs , Sehoentgen and Dlaxslm seconded
the motion to adopt the resolution.
Mr. AVolls declined to go Into any investiga
tion of the charges that had been bruited
about the streets , but ho favored the resolu
tion as tlio best moans of solving a difficulty
that was demoralizing the school nnd threat
ened almost the disruption of the board and
tlw breaking of lifetime friendships ,
Dr. SlcNuughton suld hoobjccted to being
made the victim of nnattsick uiid then being
brought In as a guilty pavtv. Ho could not
sec why thopontlomcn of the board who hud
understood the situation all along could
introduce such u resolution. It wns particu
larly unjust and unfair , out If the board hud
determined to pass the resolution , he had
nothlnir to say.
President Stewart discussed the resolution
by saying that bolmdno mes to grind , had
nwdo no promises , hud no friends to reward
or enemies to punish , but the resolution
looked like a compromise between the mem
bers of the board , whleti vis likely to do an
Injjstlco to a man who hud proved himself
capable and worthy , and n grunt wrong to tlio
schools. It was evidently an oltort to restore
good fi'clnit ; tiuttvoon tbo members of the
board by doing n great wrong to tholnterests
ofthohuhools by robbing them of their Lead
nttho last moment , when the greatest de
moralization must follow.
The resolution was carried , Messrs.
Sdiocntgcn , Wells anil Hunter votinguyc ,
mil AValto and L'resldeat Stowurtno , Blaxlsm
refraining from votiiiff. This left the schools
vlthoiit a superintendent or principal , and
tlio board iwseda resolution postponing'tho '
opentiujof the schools until Wednesday , Sep
tembers.
After Instructing tlio president and secre
tary to pnrcba'o nine of Prol. 13allenscr's
physiological inaiiiilldns for xiso In the city
schools , the board adjourned to meet Monday
nftcriiooii nt5 o'clock
The situation is Indeed deplorable. The
publicschools wcro to dnon tomorrow , nnd
now right on the threshold of what promised
to bo asuecessful year the whole system Is
thrown into a state of dciuorulinition and
disorder. With no superintendent , uiid 110
prliiclinil of the high school , with disgraceful
wnuijrlliigs and bickerings In the board. .
Council UlulTrt is Indeed liiu bad way. There
are heard many differences of opinion us to
who h most at unit , hut thuro can ho no difference -
feronco as to the result being a hard blow ut
the public schools , vhlcli have for so IOIIR
liornosiii'liim inviublo reputation as nmoiiK
llm best Intlio state , Nuturally tlio public is
Indignant at tliohltuatlon , and they look to
tho.sowhohnvotlio school system hi charge
as responsible for the dlsiniuoand trouble.
The prediction Is heard that I'rof , Stevens
may bo yet chosen immiicrliitcndeiit to sue-
scvod I'rof. MoN'uuijIiton , It would notni'oin
jiosslblo that a school board would ono day

There Is little moro to add to tbo Informa
tion contained In Tin : DEB'S account of tbo
shooting yesterday morning ; . The details
simply show tliat the Mahcr brothers , John ,
Ed nd Jim , Billy AValtcrs and .Tohn Sclief-
ferly had been attending a dance ut 1'etor-
eon's hall , and had left the place after mid
night , They wcro rot Intoxicated , but had
Icon drlnldngagooddealatid woromahlng a
very frco use of their tongues. The racket
they wort ) creating attracted the attention of
Oillccr E , 11. Noyesvhoso beat lies on
Upper Iroadway , lie came behind
the party and ordered them to
liccp quiet. Some words followed ,
and John iMnhcr asserted that us they were
only singing they \vcro not disturbing tbo
peace , nnd the ofllccr had no right to order
themott the streets. They refused tokeop
quiet , and Noyes threatened to place tbo
whole party under wrest , This excited the
angerof John Jluhcr , and hobecraii to abuse
the olUccr , Koycs took hold of him , and n
scuffle immediately resulted , during which
John- Maher struck the policeman a heavy
blowln the face with hisilst. This win the
signal for a general attack upon thooftlcer by
the whole party , and. they assaulted him
vlcloasly. JSvery one of the fellows > ? ot III a
crack lit lilm. JoliiiMahcr wrenched bhcluh
from hltn and struck him over tbo head and
across the neck. Ho was knocked dovvn on
the sldcwallc , and they vero all Mi-king and
striWng Win. Noyes cnlled loudly for help a
numhor of times , and bis calls wore heard by
parties on tno streets several blocks away ,
Believing that they were intend
ing to Mil him , the assaulted ofllcer
drew his revolver , a 82-c llbro Smith &
Wesson , mid began firing. The first shot
struck.John Alilier In the loft breast , enter
ing his body about half nn Inch from tlio nip
ple , and passing around on the Inside of tlio
ribs lodged in his left lung. Ho fell to tlio
sidewalk and the remainder of the party
started to run , and the oillcerom piled his re
volver at them Itwns supposed that two of
the shots took effect In the body of Jim
Mahcr , but a close examination ly tbo sur
geons yesterday afternoon show that but ono
bullet struck mm. It entered his right leg
as he was running , striking lilm Just above
the shoo top , and ranging upward came ont
below the knee , evidently wlillo tlio limb was
beiitln the act of tanlngn step. It then en
tered thu fleshy partof tliologabovo thoknee ,
ranging around thcbone , and lodged in front
between the knee and thigh. It Is a very
painful but not dangerous wound.
After the shooting John Maher fell to tlio
pavement and laid there , and .Tim continued
to run until lie reached the corner of First
andl'ierco streets , whcro bo was taken In
charge by his friends and conveyed to tlio
resideneoof hli sister , on thccornorof Piereo
and Graeo streets. ThuDrs.Bellingers were
summoned and have had chargeof the cases.

Yesterday morning ODlcor Noyes filed in
formations in Justice Scburz's court charging
all the implicated parties with assault with
intent to kill and they were all put under ar
rest , including tbo two wounded brothers ,
who were placed In charge of an ofllccr , who
will guard them at their present location tin-
til they can I'.o removed , Ed Maher and John
Scbcfferly wcro arrested early In the day and

and nil three were taken to the county jail.
Later in the afternoon they were brought lo-
fore Schurz for exanilnation. They nslccd
a postponement , which was granted , and
their bail fixed at Sl,000 , each. This was
filled by Dan Carrigg and the three men wcro
released pending a hearing.

Injuries woronot ai severe as they were first

was Justified In tlio shooting has been gen
erally discussed and the preponderance of
public opinion upholds him. in tlio free use of
his revolver. Thcro are several who saw the
assault and they tell confiding stories about
it. somoof which incline towards n censure
of the olMcor. But the fact must not bo over

Judge King was master of ceremonies , and
after calling the meeting ; lo order , ho Intro-
Ineed Mr. llryan , the democratic candidate
Tor congressional honors , who , after telling
the oft told history of tbo party , spokosub-
stinitinllv as follows :
"Tho democratic party prefers highUeeiiso
: o prohibition. Tlio democrats nro iifrnld
ihat if the prohibition niiiciiilnient goes into
Lbo constitution it would bo repealed , and for
Llils reason propose to defeat It at the polls.
The use of Intoxicating liquor is n personal
matter , and even-man has a rllit ( ; to use It ,
"Wherever prohibition has been tried it has
been afuiluro. The chance \vould result in
taklngaway the present restrictions. You
cun't enforce prohibition when a man cim go
out with a handsaw and got drunk on arail ,
Every sun thut sets places the defeat of pro
hibition ono day nearer ; Every man
who Is before the people for nn ofllce
must declare his position. 'Jbo republican
party fails to state whcro it stands upon this
important matter. The democratic party
docs not fail so to do. Now , I have dellnod
my position on the prohibition question , and
I want to speak upon national questions ,
"Tho democratic party Is in favor of a lav
by which the people shall elect their senators ,
I believe the tlnio Is now rlno for taking this
power from congress and placing It in the
hands of the people.Vo oiiRht to dcelaro
that no man can own a foot of laud in the
United States until ho has sworn allegiance
to the ( lug that floats over him.
" 1 am opposed to trusts. When the pro
tective tariff is the cause of the formation of
tnistsl ninln favor of reducing the tariff.
"The most fatal blow aimed at frco govern
ment Is the passage of the federal election
law. _ I would rather have thocortlflciito of a
justice of the peace than ono issued by n
board of arbltmtors appointed ly the gov
ernment.
"Tbo democratic party Is opposed to n tariff
that pays tribute to ono man and
takes it from another. "When the
government takes a dollar from
ono it adds it to the wealth of another. The
republicans toll you they are protecting the
borne Industry. I tell you this is not so. The
democrats are the men who nro protecting the
little homes out hero on the prairie. Toillus-
trato , If you buy a dollar's ' -\vorthof goods
you now pay 47cents prollt to the manufac
turer.Vlio pa.vs this profit ) You do , and
you pay it ns tariff. If the farmer could only
keep 100 bushclsof his wheat and eendforty-
seven bushels awuv to the man Avho claims
the tariff , ho would be better oft than ho Is
today. Is it nofc slavery to think think
that one-third of everything you produce
is exhausted in the way of paying tribute to
the tariff tinkers f The only reason why you
stand this is because they don't como and col
lect It of you ns they do a tax. As the mat
ter stands now every man , woman and child
pays into the govormnentflO per annum moro
than li needed. This increase of the surplus
that Is constantly piling up is what is mak
ing tlio poor man poorer and the rich , man
richer , "
Tbo speaker then paid a glowing tribute to
the nominees on the democratic ticket , re
ferring to them as honorable , able and gener
ous gentlemen , after which JI. V. Gannon
and C , J. Smyth spoke upon local politics and
the meeting adjourned.

ST. PA n , , Minn. , August 30. [ Special
Telegram to THE nun. ] U'ho intense po
litical , industrial , social and financial rivalry
between St. Paul and Mnncapolls broke out
m a new spot today when it was learned that
St. Paul had hatched a suhoino for the an
nexation of Dakota county , on the opposite
side of the Mississippi ' .This would give
Kamsay county u largo increase in area ,
would dia\v South St. I'aul into ttio city
limits and glvo tbo county sufficient popula
tion to ontltlo It to a congressman. It Is un
derstood that the Dnlcotu county people
have been mollified with thy promise of a
legislative enactment keeping their taxes at
ab'out tlio present rates. This county is the
smallest inthostato and its representatives
In the state conventions have been obliged to
knuckle from sheer foxvo of numbers to the
delegations from Henncpin county , in which
Is located .Minneapolis. The annexation of
Dakota county would give liamsay county u
population very nearly equaling that of

reviewing the. condition of affairs along tlio

"Tho committee deems it hut fair to the en
terprise of such n magnitude that it should
bo given a reasonable time to demonstrate
that those who have undert alien It are pros
ecuting the same in ( 'ood faith , and that in
their early more-menu they ought not to bo
hampered by captious nnd carping critics. It
would i a gross breach of faith for
the United States government to penult In
any \vuy \ the embarrassment of the project
by considering unfounded propositions from
any source for n repeal of tbo company's
charter. " _

Woolsuv has decided , however , since ho got
possession of the property , to organize an
other company and open up In tlio llnuor
manufacturing business , using the machin
ery and plant of the old company. Arnold
now asks for an Injunction to prevent
him from breaking the provisions ot tlio

This Is , ln hort.a light between the whisky
trust and onoo t the original owners of the
Nebraska , City distillery. Arnold represents
tbo trust and Wool soy Is a resident partner
In the original company. Woolsey believes
that ho can Ignore the provisions of the trust
