Y o i Nebraska ( SEHOOL BOARD IS IN A HOLE Evidence Against Suspended Lincoln | “Frat” Boys Not Good. [ O)(I‘H'BE WILL BE OVERRULED | T. J. Doyle Prepares Mandamus Petle tion to Force Reinstatement, but Members May Back Water at Once. (From & Statf Correspondent.) LINCOLN, March 4.—(Special)=T. J Doyl has prepared . petition, whicn he will in court tomorrow,' asking for a writ of mandamus to compel the school board to reinstate in the high school those boys who were suspended on a charge of | belonging to fraternities. { Mr. Doyle will set up in his petition that the boys have not violated any rule of the Board of Education; that they have been studious and have tho respect of their teachers; that they have observed and obgyed the rules and that they are not hagboring the fraternity spirit and do nu(' ndW belong to the fraternity; that the schbol board suspended the boys without giving them a hearing, but reached its con- cluslons in star chamber sesslons. He will also set out that before the state law \\«z senacted tho boys Dbelonged to frfternities, but that when the school dard ordered them to withdraw, the boys fet and surrendered thelr charters and that they have their possession a re- celpt from the national bodies showing that the chartes had been surrendered. r that the school board rrule the action of the \? 4l committ o which the matter was referred and that the case will not come to trial. Since the committee took action it has eveloped that at least one of the boys hi#d already quit schoo! and therefore the board had no jurisdiction over him. Evidence Not Sufficlent. From a member of the school board has come the information that it the boys had been given a trial the evidence secured by the board would not have been suf- figfent to secure a conviction. Qwin to the prominence of the families inyolved and the drastic measures adopted by the special committeé has created un- usual interest and practically all of Lin- 1s talking of it. It is the gemeral impression that had the board permitted Principal Mays to handle ghe subject alone, no trouble would have resulted. Mr. Mays is probably not the most popular principal the school ever had it the opinion of the Aboys 1s any indication. He wi¥s just getting thihgs stralghtened out of the tangle left by a predecessor when the present difficulty arose. Prin- clpal Sanders stopped the playing of foot ball and had a fight on his hands for a long time. Mr. Mays assisted in organizing the team, went to the games and has taken & leading part in the boys' athletics, Consequently the criticlsm 1s aimed at 4 character, this time at the board And not at the “principal. James Galusha, son of Iix-Secretary of State Galusha, this morning enrolled at the.model high school at the state univer- sity, Principal Mays having written & v« to' Chancellar . Avery saying this weuld be perfectly satisfactory.to the high c:lymonc‘Doyln. who kept on attending sohool, though suspended, was called ‘1At the office of the principal this morning and infgrmed that under the orders of the board He would be compelled to remain away from school. Suggestion from the Mayor. While Liicoln probably never expects to be a real “tough” clty it will take on the appearance of the stage frontler, If the suggestion of Mayor Love, as printed in an afternoon paper, is carried out. Adcording to the paper the mayor sug- gosts that the policemen should wear thelr revolvers in holsters on the outside of thelr coats in plain view of the people. Whether the mayor expects to intimidate guld-be bad men or to make a fleld for ckpockets was not announced. The ex- e board has not yet passed upon the sus- gestion, Convicts Steal Shirts. The report of Warden Smith filed with) the governar today, shows that during the month of February, § convicts stole shirts from the shirt factory and each was as- sessed thirty @ays good time. - What they 4 | uinconn, Nebraska i now eligible to talk insurance to anyone. | After being without this authority for | several weeks, Mr. Spees showed up before the auditor with a bundle of letters vmm“ professional and business men of south- | cast Nebraska testifying to his good s0 Mr. Barton concluded to give him another chance to make a lving.

Board M;ml:crs Plan Davis Tract For High School Lincoln Educational Body Will Prob- ably Disregard Demands of News- papers and Act Its Wish, (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, March 4.—(Speclal)—It 1s practically settled that the school board next week will submit to the voters a proposition to vote bonds for a high school to be constructed on the Davis tract. The proposition will include $60,000 to purchase the site which is a block of ground hetween Seventeenth and Eighteenth and K and J streets. That the school board will insist that the buliding be located on the Davis tract there is not the least doubt, notwithstanding the distriet owns what is known as the Daven- port site down by the Rock Island tracks. The board decided to buy the Davis tract some weeks ago and at once a mighty howl went up, threo newspapers here ob- Jected to the action of the board and finally the Lincoln News started a voting contest to see what the people thought of the pro posed’ change. The result of that vote has probably cinched the matter In favor of the Davis tract. Up to last night only something over 0 votes had been cast for the Day- enport tract, though the town has been thoroughly canvassed in its interest. That was more votes than either the Davls tract or the present site received, but out of 60,- 000 population, the vote will not be consid- ered by the school board as expressing the will of the majority of the people. By the members of the school board the | Davenport tract is considered entirely too | low and flat for a high school bullding, and entirely too near the rallroad. The board belleves It would be well to use it for an athletic field. F. M. Hall, member of the board, is down #outh, but is expected to be on hand Mon- day night when the board meets, at which time the call probably will be issued. The board members believe the referendum vote endorses their action in changing from the Davenport to the Davis site.

Together they came to Lin- coln on Wednesday of this week and Mr. Cowan was named by the agricultural committee of the university, which has the work of the substantions in its im- mediate charge. The regents fecl that they have secured an exceptionaily good man, as he {8 & man of wide reading, great experience and able physically to push the work with the substation so as to make an immediate showing for the benefit of the farmers of the section in which it is established.

DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE General Situation is Improving and Spring Outlook Promising. SOME DRAGS TO PROGRESS Several Large Fallures a: phia Strike Injures Sentimente— Iron and Steel Mills Have Large Orders, NEW YORK, March 4—R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say: With a somewhat severe winter draw- ing to & close and with the subsidence of excitement in the financial markets, the industrial and trade situation shows im- provement and the outlook for the spring season is yrumlnlnr. It is an easy mat- ter, of course, to pick flaws in the situa- tion, certain aspects of which are unfavor- able. Among these may be mentioned the decreasing excess of exports over im- ports, the balance of trade in favor of this country durin, @ current fiscal gnlr being the smallest since 1896, and ut for the forelgn purchases of American securities during the recent decline there would, probabl; e heavy exports of gold, Then the bond market {s unfavorable for large flotations, and this retards exten- slve works of construction. The Philadel- PMl strike is an ugly development, hurt- ng trade in that city and injuring senti- ment. elsewhere. The henv|y labilities of defaulting con- cerns during February, due, however, chiefly to four very large fallures, Is not A pleasant Incident.
