Leading republicans here think they will be able to make a good thing out of Gov. Cleveland's speech at Newark, N.J., last night. They insist that it tsa plain declaration tn favor of a tariff for Tevenue only, and thatit will do good service for the republicans in manufacturing districts. The democrats, however, tnuintaln that the Governor simply declared in favor of tari revision, asse his belief in protecting the workingmen. ‘They hol ‘that this declaration will help Cleveland among manufacturers and thelr employes. Some promi: nent democrats of New Jersey and Connecticut, members of Congress from those states, have said Tecently that tle manufacturers, as ‘a rule, no longer cling to igh protection; that they have seen thelr business. fall off under that system, and they now look to tariff revision to help them. ‘Kep- Tesentative Mitchell, of Connecticut, who is largely. interested in manitactories, has sald that high protection has lost its hold among manufacturers. Mr. Charles Folger’s Politicat Attitude. ‘The dispatch published in New York papers to-day to the effect that Mr. Charles Folger, son of the late Secretary of the Treasury, had declared against Blaine, is not credited by repubitcans. Mr. Folger holds a government position, but he is, now ‘at his home in Geneva, N. Comparing the Records.

The state- ment claims to show by official records that the defalcations under Buchanan amounted to two million, while those during Grant’s first. term amounted toelght million. Thirty-five per cent Of the loss under the former was recovered. Only five per cent was recovered of the loss under the latter. Upon the same subject Secretary McPherson got a letter this morning. ‘The writer calls his atten- Uon to the Tact that atthe close of Buchanan's term the books showed shortages in officials’ ac- counts, extending back over an indefinite period, amounting to over twelve militon dollars, es 2 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

When the doors of the Commissioners’ room were opened the following Teport, embracing Commissioner West's findings and the views of the board, was given out to the Press: Alleged irregularities in recent changes of some of the text books in the public schools having been Drought to the notice of the Commissioners in several ways, and more particularly by the re- Port of OMicer Block, who had been directed to inquire as to the same, the report of that officer ‘on the subject was referred on October 7th to the President of the board of trustees, who was also a Member of the committee on text books and teachers at the time the changes were assumed to have been made. The reference was in the fok lowing words: “Respectfully forwarded to B. H. Warner, president, &¢., for his information and tor such report as he may think Is required. As books, to a certain extent, come within expenditures for ‘suppites,’ any changesin them involve an increased outlay from that fund, and the Commissioners would be glad to know whether changes have been made iu accondance with law, and the parti culars of the same.” ‘This application was made to the president of the board, as it was presumed that he would know What the board and his own committee had done in the premises. He, however, referred the subject for reply to the secretary of Superintendent Wilson, and said to be secretary of the board, for an expla: nation of proceedings that could only be legally done by the vote of two-thirds of the whole board of trustees. ‘The explanation of the changes sent to the Commissioners, vouched for merely by an officer subordinate in the third a ignores en- Urely the question asked by thei, whether “chinges have been made tn accordance with law?” and embraces only a statement of how, when and to what book dealers he, the clerk to the Superintendent, communicated the intelligence ‘that changes hid or would be made. Further inquiry into the matter was then deemed necessary, aud the examination of witnes-es was confided ‘to Commissioner West. ‘The examination Was public and the testimony taken Is submitted, ‘with Une Commissioner's polnts of inquiry and iS conclusions thereon. First, Precisely what changes, if any, have been made th the text books of the public schools. Finding. The actual changes made comprise new editions Of the 4th and 5th Franklin Readers and three new books on English History in leu of one (Swinton’s Outlines) previously used in ‘the High school ‘Second. Who authorized such changes, and what time were they determined upon? Finding. The committee on teachers and text Dooks—wiich committee ordered the change on September 8th. The change, however, appears to have been unofficially determined upon by superin- tendent Wilson on August 10th, if not eariter. ‘Third. Were the changes made in accordance with the estabilsed rules of the board of school trustees, and with the laws governing the public schoolst Finding. The rule of the school board affecting changes is as follows: “The committee on teachers | and text-books shall keep themselves advised of the kind, cost and character of text-books, maps, charts ad school apparatus tn use in the’ publlé schools; shall examine such other text-books, maps, charts or apparatusas may be proposed for In: ‘troduction, and shail make report thereon annually in the month or June. ‘But no books shail bechanged unless by a vote of two-thirds of the whole board, ‘and the books in all the schools in the several divi sions shall be uniform.’ They shall also make themselves familiar with the course of study pre- scribed for the public schools, and its practical operation, and shall, from time to tiie, recommend such moaltieations thereof as, in thelr opinion, will best.” ‘The changes were unauthorized—they were made by the comniuttee on teachers and text books, with. our the knowledze of the board on September Sth, although the board sanctioned them Septernber 30, No report was made on the subject in June, and tt cannot be claimed with Justice Uhat the conimittes On text books, &c., 18 authorized to report at al Ume and change books at thelr pleasure. The words quoted in the above rule state the law on the subject, and no school authority can waive or should evade that law. Fourth. Were such changes advisable, and what was the pecuniary cost of them, and upon whom was It Imposed? Finding. ‘The cost of the changes of the Frank- Un readers 1s estimated at frou $2,000 to $3,000, failing upon the scholars of the pubile schools and upon the District of Columbia, No extra expense Appears to attend the hizh school changes. “The changes Iu the manner Uley were made Were un- advisable, It would have been better to allow the Schools to continue the use of old books for a year, Tather Unan by irregularities to create discontent and cause complaint. Fitth. Was the irregularity of the changes merely techulcal, or was such irregularity reprehensible and prejudicial to the interests of the public schools? Finding. The irregularity of the change was It was an Injudicious as- more than technical Suinption of power by thecomttee on text-books, teachers, &c., contrary to the rules of the board of ‘trustees and in violation of law. ‘Their action took piace officially, thouch iNegally, some time after tt iad evidently been detertnined upon in the mind of ‘the superintendent, whose determination was com- Muntcated to the trad» at an earlier or later date by his secretary according to the diligence with which the dealérs applied’ to him for information on the subject, ‘The board of trustees by Its rules and the law by its restrictions recognize the sensitiveness with which changes in text-books are regarded in public schools, and this sensitiveness pervades, according to the cbservation of the Commissioners, all public School systems throughout the United States. When prescribed forms are ded and safe- guards are ignored only complaint and scandal en- Sue. The intelilgence and uprightness which should characterize the management of the public Schools of the District has been brought into ques- Uon, and the estimation which they should com- mauid from all good citizens has been impaired. During that inquiry a letter to Superintendent ‘Wilson, from the committee on teachers and text dooks, Was submitted by him tn answer to the In- quiry as to “who.nade the changes?” and accom. Ponies this summary. It 1s to be regretted that Une Irregularity of the proceedings Is not as frankly admitted by the committee as isthelr responsibility for Its occurrences ‘The Commissioners n approving this re- cognize that the management of schools, including the change of text-books, Is within the province of the trustees, and that the responsiblity, therefore, Tests upon them. Also, that upon complaint. by. citizens of illegality or irregularity in the exercise Of that power It is proper for the Commissioners to ascertain the facts. In this case, belleving the Irregular change in text-books did hot originate in an intention to violate law, and that It 1s not Ukely to occur again, the Coinmisstouers deem no further action to be necessary. ONLY AN IMPRUDENCE. ‘One of the District Commissioners sald toa Stax Teporter that In his view the school trustees had committed an imprudence on a very delicate mat- ter. That was all It amounted to. He thought that the finances of the schools should be controlled by the Commissioners, but as to details of educational matters submitted'to the board he did not think ‘the Commissioners had the tme to attend to them properly. MR. WARNER OFPOSED TO ABOLISHING THE BOARD. ‘Mr. B. H. Warner, late president of the board of School trustees, when asked by a Stak reporter ‘this morning as, to the advisability of abollsning the school board, as suggested by the District Com- missioners, sald:’ “I am opposed to abolishing the Doard of school trustees, to the employment of de- Lectives as a means of oficial Intercourse between the members of said board and the District Com- Inissioners, to the centralization of power, to secrecy 4n transacting pubitc business, to that policy which seeks vo deprive the people of this District of any Voice in the control of thelr own affairs. No one owned me while a member of the board of school trus- ‘tees, and Think nine of our citizens acting as trus- tees'will be quite as likely to serve the interests. of the District as one Commissioner. I am in favor of enlarging the board instead of reducing it. Not one of our District Commissioners has ever visited ‘primary school in this District to my knowledge. But I am busy; good bye.” WHAT TRUSTEE SMITH SAYS. Mr. James H. Smith, a trustee representing the eighth district (colored schools) sald to a Star re- porter that the board now, for all practical pur- ‘poses, does its work In committees, and one of the comumilttees composed of a majority of the board the committee on teachers) Virtually directs the legislation. ‘The board should meet once a week ‘and discuss measures publicly. On tke question of reducing or abolishing the board he said: “It would Deimpracticable to do elther. ‘The board should be increased In number and men appointed who ‘would give thelr attention to the schools. ‘There 4s too Much tendency towards centralization o power in the board now, and i¢ should be checked ———__ Actor Bangs and His Wite. ‘SHE WILL BE GIVEN A DIVORCE IF NO DECREE HAS ‘BEEN FILED AGAINST HER. the motion to confirm the referee’s report recom- mending a decree of absolute divorce for the plain- Uff in the action of Alice S Bangs from her hus- Dand, Frank ©.
