Ex-Minister Smythe Makes a Charge of Unfairness in Examining Teachers. THE SCHOOL TRUSTEES THINK THE CHARGE GROUNDLESS—CHANGES AMONG THE TRACH- ERS—NIGHT SCHOOLS TO BE OPENED NEXT MONTH—THE ATTENDANCE ON THE SCHOOLS. A gentle excitement was caused at the meet- ing of the school board last evening, by the Teading of a letter from District Commissioner Webb, endorsing letters from Mr. John H. Smythe, ex-minister to Liberia, and Mr. Alex- ander C. Shippen, the latter a colored man who was examined in September for a teachership @nd failed to get a certificate, Mr. Webb called sttention to charxes of favoritism and uantfair- ess made by Messrs. Smythe and Shippen and a charge by Mr, Smythe that unfit persons were employed in the colored schools, Mr. Smy the's letter stated that Mr. Shippen had received a percentage of only 41% and felt very unjustly treated, as he had not been orally examined dn “theory and practice of teaching,” for which a maximum marking of twenty per cent was allowed. He was deuied this ural ex- amination, though no reason was anpounces, Mr. Smythe made some remarks on bis idea of firness,sayiug:"Preterment suould go by merit, not favor. There ate persous iu the negro schools of this District Whose unfituess does vot inspire respect on the partof pupils, Ability ean alone be secured by Jair and unpartial examination.” Mr. Shippen’s letier stated, be was iniormed, tat he would be viven the same perceniaxe i: the oral examinadion as he was given at the May examination, but be had veen given vo mark at ali, ‘Mr. Darlington, president of the board, stated that upon receiving tue communication’ be had answered Mr. Weub that the ex: waltol papers, on their face, showed that Mr. Sbippen’s Statement was incorrect, us he was given a ¢redit tor an oral examination, Mr. Fish thought tue board could not spend Ume examining a general charge Unat there Were unit persovs employed in the schvols, Mr, Johnson thought the tact that Mr. Smytbe Was Suippen’s brotwer-in-law might account for the tone of the letter. Superintendent Powell stated that Mr. Ship- pen received a mark in May,on his examina- tion us to his experience as 4 ceucher. AS be bad bad no furiber experience Letween Ubut Ume and September, ic Was not thought neces- sary tu examine niin further, and the exami ners informed him that wey’ would give uim the same mark us was given in May.

I was one of the many passengers last evening on the 4:40 tram on the Metropolitan Branch of the B. & O. R.R, which reached Rockville about 20 minutes pust 8 o'clock. Ihave been traveling Ubis road almost daily since 1876, my home being in Montgomery county, about tour miles from the cvuuty town. Your readers have all been told of the destructive collision which occurred during the morning ata point between Linden and Korest Gien stations. When we ieit the Washington depot last eveu- ing, the disputcher of trains either knew, or did not know, that the track was blocked beyond Silver Spring station. It he did not know, there wus most culpable ignorance of the condition or the roud over which hundreds of people and thousands of dollars of Fiyghd are being duily transported. We had heard of tne accident belore starting, but with” that Feticence on which the coatinuance in office of the R. R. employes depends, we could learn ho particulars, and did not doubt, we had no right Lo presume otherwise, that we shouid e tw our homes on usual time. Alter sing Ta~ Koma we traveied at a slow rate unul reaching a point @ short distance this side of silver Spring, where we were 81 by @ construc. tion train, This was at 10 minutes past 5 o'clock. The New Orleans express was sent off AL about jis usual scheuule time, 5:30, and the Hagerstown accomm Stated suon atter. The passengers on tbe New Orleans express and the fast numea hig Seo right to — en aad the way was open, bu! sy, too, Were stop) benind our trato,the 4:40. ‘Igor out with otters and walked Ww Silver Spring station and there we Walled Lill about 7:50 o'cluck, Ali sorts of Accounts were flying about us to the morulng’s accident, but from tne empires we could jeurn nothing. Having been by the 4:40 train wourd take the siding at Knowles’ station, about five miles this side of Rockville, und that the New Orleans express would past it; and being desirous to shorten by every min- ute the anxiety of my family I to the latter train, -AbOWL 7:50 We Were under way. The 4:40 did not take Lbe siding and we reacied Rockville about 8:20, being about ten minutes bebind the 4:40, From the ex; nce Which the wrecker workmen have this within tl few months the mu: re should have known bow long a time would be Fequired to open the way, ana bad we been uswe ought to have beet, of the condition things, some of us would ‘not have starved at all, but remul com! here ans yraphed to our families.

The report of the committee on law was pre- sented to the Knights of Laborconvention at Richmond yesterday morning. It recommends @ shange in the constitution by which the ex- ecutive board shall consist of general master workman and six members, notwo of whom should be trom the same state, This part of the Teport was adopted. It was also recommended that the office of general secretary and treasurer be divided. No action was takenon this. The assembly at one o'clock adjourned until this morain; % The general executive board heid a meeting Yesterday to hear the cases that have been pre- sented to it, but took no action on any of them It has more than 12,000 cases awaiting its di Sion, and these do wot include all that are to be brought before it, The board will meet again during the first recess taken by the general assembly, ‘There was @ meeting in the afternoon of the editors of labor papers and other vewspaper men who are delegates to the convention. The object of the organization is the formation of a labor news bureau, through which authentic information with regard to labor matters can be transtitted to the country, Every member of the organization will farnish every other member with ali the Hews that he obiains, This bureau will interfere in no way with the establishment of the labor journal proposed by A. M. Dewey, whieh it majority of th conveation favors, The miners also held a meeting and will sub- mit plan to the convention for the better ganization of miners throughout the United Suites. The textile workers were called to- gether to devise a method by which the exact condition of their business may be commuani- cated to one avother. The shuemakers met to form a national trades couneil, which will not, however, interfere with the district assoc! lions, which will preserve their identity. Rep Feseutatives of the tarmers in the convention met to present # plan to the convention by Which Knights of Labor may form an alliance wita the grange and with other associations o1 farmers, LOOKING AFTER CONSPIRACY LAWS. A committee of thres was appointed to make collection of conspiracy luws of the several states, by means of which firms and companies encroach ou the rights of workingmen. The couvention is aiso to collect evideuce going to Suow that employers have entered into con spiracies against workmen, and toiusticuie suit agaiust sucu employers under the conspiracy jaws in all eases where provls are obtainable, The members of the commitiee are: L. G. Noyes, Marmetie, Wis.; A. A. Carleton, Somer: ville, Mass. and Tuomas A. Armstrong, Pitts- burg, Pa. Mr. Arinstrong is the editor of the Lavor Tribune, of Piuisburg. He is not a dele- ule nor prevent, but was selected on accountor tue knowledge Le possesses on the subject. The hope was yesterday that the convention coud complete its work und adjourn on ‘Tues day next, The Presidentand Mr. Cleveland will Visit the state fair at Richmond one week from to-day, and many ot tue delegates are figuring on Adjournment to conform with what eveut, so they can attend the fair and Jeave at once for their homes. Because of the complaints of newspaper men. regarding the paucity of the news given out, Iv Was said last night that Mr. Powdery would designate a judicious delezate to turuish the proper amount of information. Mr. Powderly yesterday received the follow- ing telegram from Tuomas B. Barry, a member 01 Lie executive cominitiee sent to Chicago to endeavor to settle the strike of the empivyes of the pork packers in Lbat city: “The packers say they have no organizution, so I must treat with them as individual companies. We culled on several firms yesterday aud all expressed a de- sire for setticment, but insist on working ten hours, while tue then are tirm ior eight. We look tr a setlemeni this week. Mr, Powderly’s ietter on. the color question does’ not seem to have given satisfucuon in Richmond, Both the Siae and Waty severely criticise the letter, and say it has anade the matter worse, it anything. = eee ‘Transfers of Real Estate.
