Majority Report Adopted. In offering his substitute for the original report Mr. Babeock said that he did not wish to discredit the judgment of other members of the committee, but he believed that this was a year when the board should intlict no heuvier burden on the people than was necessary. He contended thav with strict economy the 8-mill levy would bo suflicient and that under the circumstances it would not be advisable o askc the council to increase the levy. Tukey and Pierson declared themselves of the sume mind and Mr, Thomas took the floor to defend the majority report. e cited a long list of estimates to show that a 3-mill levy would not be sufiicient. Accordine to his figures the expenses of the board for Lthe year in question will amount 10 490,851 With a 81¢-milllevy he estimated tho receipts at §377,000. Gibson and Burgess supported Mr. Thomas and Knodell took the sume position. Presi- dent Powell sald that in the beginning he was ia_favor of tho 8! ¥, DU that on further consideration he had decided to vote with the minority of the committeo. The motion to adopt the minovity report re- sulted in a tie vote and was declared lost. ;J'hn majority report was then adopted by to4. ances, To Curtail Expenses, ‘The special committeo on retrenchment recommended that on and after February 1 the salary of the architect be reduced from $475 to per month and thut after April 1 no architect be employed for the balance of the school year. The recommenduti was referred to the committee on sals and upon its favorable report was adopted. On recommendation of tho retrenchment committee the training school was ordered removed from the Pleasunt school to the Mason school. Mr. Rhoades called the attention of the board to the fact that the Megeath Station- ery company was refusing to furnish sta- tionery as requirad by its contract with the board, He moved that the contract be taken away from it and awarded to Klopp & Bartlett, Several members declared themselves in favor of cancelling all the contracts with the Megeath company, and aftor some aiscussion tho attorney was in- structed to nocify the company that unless 1t should furnish stationer, requirved by the board all contracts w ink and other supplies would be cunce Those Who Passed.

As long ago as last summer th finunce committee discovered a prosy doficit in tho finances which resolutely re- fused to be legislated out of office. At first {1 was given out as among the probabilitios that the board would be over §41,000 short at the end of the year, but in course of time tho estimate was lowered to about §15,000. When the membersof the new finance committee went into oftice the most difficuly problem that confrouted them was the al- leged deficit which had descended together with the other emoluments of their position. A number of meetings wore held lust weel, at which various schemes of retrenchment wero discussed, but ording te the esti- mates of their predecessors theve wero still some considerable expenditures in sight for which there was no provision. 1t was while still scratching thew heads over this aifficully that the committeemen lappened upon o discovery that made, them tch their breath and at ihe same time r thelr minds of tho apprehensions which had haunted them so long, When the old committoo fignred up the ercdit side of the ledger it had used the basis of taxation as 2 mills on the dollar. On the estimated valuation of §20,000,000 this had given them a supposed meomo trom taxes of $0.00v. In some una untable waopuer i lost sighy of the fack that when e committee of d a ghost. It joscd of & specter that predecessors for many old ctive { the city council made the last levy for school purposes the tax was raised from 2 to #mills, This was a fact, however, and the board is richer by at least $20,000 than it had belleved. The discovery was mado by Secretary Gillan and communicated to tho committee, The city treasurer was called in and corroborated the statement. He fur- ther assured the committee that all the school tax that had been collected sinre July had been figured on the three mills basis, In consideration of this state of afafrs the board finds itself not only relieved of the defjciency but with a prosvective balance of #5000 in the general fund on which to begin the next year. The mental energy which the members and their predecessors had de- voted to figuring aw out of the dif- culty was so much gray tter wasted, and instead of being prospectively baukrupt the board finds itselr in a w; to finish the school year with a balance to its credit. ) [ Cost of Cout for Schools, Among the items which are being consid- ered by the special retrenchment committee of the Board of Education is the present cost of coal for the various school buildings. 1t is claimed that a moro expensive coal is boing used than is necessury or is fn use for ting other steam plants in the city.

Bloom. At~ torney Will Gurley, representing the de- fendant. introduced testimony to prove the good chavactér of the defendant. John Jenkins, Judge Stenburg, Sam Berg- strom, Charles Rasmusson and Peter Elsas- serall stated that as far as they knew the reputation of Bloom was good and that ho had a good roputation for truth and veracity. First Sergeant Sigwart of the police force stated on the stand that he had often seen Bloom writing or reading in th e police court rooms. Ofiicer Bloom was put on the stand and said that he had been counccted with the police force for ncarly ten years. He said: T did not write thetletter to Mayor Bemis o any other threateuing or anonymous letier touny person on the_date alleged or at any other time. About Officer Starkey’s testi- mony, T would say thatabout a year ago T Bee alleged that political meetings were being held in my room_and I wroto a letter denying the report. Starkey advised me not to have it printed for he thought if { did 1would get into trouble so, I tore the let- ter up* Continuing, the witness said that he had no malice against Mr. Rosewater or Tun BEE, and v evidence of this fact said that he had been a regular subscriber to Tue Br for over five years, Ho also said that he had never made any complaints about the management of the police department. When asked where he obtained the paper he used when writing at the jail Bloom said that shere was plenty of paver lying around. Attorney Cornish “asked the ofticer if he had ever seon any of the Afro-American league letter heads before, but Bloom did not remember whether he had or not. Mr. Gurley made a short argument in favor of his client and the board went into executive session to consider the matter, At the ond of the session, which lasted half an hour, the commissioners came out and announced that they would give their decision in a few days. e Getting Plenty ot Good Ice, For the past several weeks the ice men in this partof the country have been fecling rather doubtful as to whether ornot they were goiug to be able to obtain the usual harvest of congealed dew drops. But on Sunday they wore brighter faces, for the temperature dropped about 25 inside of twenty-four hours, and the streams and lakes ire now covered with ice, While tho frigid ozone was rioting around the corner last night several bards, old timers and owher prevavicutors were trying to keep a ragiator wavm i ce headquarters.

When these resolutions were passc everything was lovely, but when the heads of the departments and the clerks read the report of the meeting, published in Tne BEE they swooped down on the commis- sioners and have since then been making their lives very heavy burdens. The cut has been heavy and as a resuit of the paring the nissioners have cut oft 0,840 per annum in salaries and extra help. In the officc of the register of deeds the cut lets four persons out into the cold atmos phere and saves the county an even $240 pe month. But with the cut there comes a howl that is longer, by far, than the pay roul. Elyasser Says it 1s Politics. Register Elsasser declares that there are some politics in the deal- at as ho is a democrat the comm made a ble example of his office. To make good this stutement he points to the fact that three of his men, all parties who have been in the office for séven years, are getting but €0 per month, while the others are being paid but $50 per month each, In no uncer- tain terms he declares that he asked that the old-time men be paid 890 and the others per month each. Healso shows that under the Megeath regime there were more people in the office than now, but notwith- standing all _of thi terms of the resolution, tho p are required to rewrite the numerical indices, work which the statutes provide shall e performed at the rate of 15 cents per line. Going int. ditional details Mr. T declares that in the office of the county treasurer Chavley Unitt is. paid €125 per month for performing the duties of tax col- lector when, in fact, he Is an officer of a polit central committee, and devotes a large portion of his time to politics, ing charge of the cam- paign. Asac Mr. Tlsasser states that the city of has a tax collector who is h and collects sev- eral imes as much mon cach month as Unitt, the connty man. Going further into the matter the register of deeds states that his oftica is the only one which has been sell-sustaining during the pastsix years. To prove this ke brings forti a b showing that during the period of time here- tofore mentioned the oMice has paid its way, besides turning §27,000 into the general fund of the county. Judgoe Baxter’s Resonant Kick. County kick swhich distance of many Dblocks, sser, he is about ready to re- trouble with Baxter is that the new schedule has cut off one of his clerks and left him with but six people, whereas his prodecessor had nine. The judge shows his books and declares that it will bo impos- sible to keep up with the work of the office, to say nothing of doing the work which Judge Eller left undone. Regardiug the un- completed work in the oftice, Judge Baxter has made a schedule and finas that the record book ot been touched since November 18, that but two and one- halt pages have boen written in the entry book since December 9, 1862, and that but three-fourths of a puge has been written in the estate book since December 20, 184 Judge Baxter is of the opinion that the dis- ribution of salaries has not been upon a fair basis, and openly declares that in other offices in the building the copyists are paid $60 per month, while inhis office, where the work is equally as important, they are al- lowed but $50. The cut in this office amounts to $73) pe vear. In the oftice of the county treasury the cut is felt to a large extent, as there has been a general reduction of salaries and two men have been let out altogether, thus saving to the county the sum of $2,820 per annum. Treasurer lrey declares that he and his men have been working night ard day and have been unable to keep the records up to date. With the cut, Mr. Irey is of the opinion that he will be unable to bring up any of the old work, But the Commisstoners Only Smile. - The commissioners smile when they hear the complaints, and go upon the plan that if the employes of the county don’t like the work they can hunt other jobs, as the county has no strings on any of them. Jo making up the scheduie, Chairman Stenberg said that the board had attempted to deal fairly with gll of the officials and the clerks. No partiality had been shown to any oftice, and if it was found that the work could not be performed with the present force, additional clerks would be allowed. Que thing, how- ever, was sure, aud that was that the clerks would have to work the regular hours, and there would be no more getting to the oflice at 10 o'clock in the Fuxcnouu and quitting in the middle of the afternoon, Continuing, Chairman Stenberg said thav Register Elsasser lad all the help that he had asked forand that the clerks were paid the wages provided for by statute. Sixty dollars per month was the rogulation amount and that could not be raised with- out mak: 1l of the clerks deputies. He said that Judge Baxter was allowed as many clerks as Eller had uncil & few months be- fore he went out of office, and double the pumber that were in the office when George W.
