Frome | bers some of the foremost men of the City | committee of the present board, have been misleading the general public as well as the teachers of the department on the coundition of the school fund, which re- ports have not been very glowing. The so-called deficit exists only on paver. If there is a deficit, which no one can tell at present, and will not be known until after the fiscal year has closed, it will notbe the fault of the last board, but of the Au- ditor and the Inst Bourd of Supervisors, As far as the closing of the schogls is con- cerned, it is not necessary. The present board at the end of the fiscal year can withhold the teacher’s salaries for the month of June until the second instali- ment is received from the State fund, which will be about July 5 to_8, at which time the school fund can be closed up for the year. The receipts for the last half of the fiscal year will not be nearly as large as the first half, but with a little economy and not so much paper talk I believs without a doubt, there will be no def ciency of $90,000 or $100,000 staring the Board of Education in the face.” A velition emanating from the Girls’ High School 1s being circulated for si natures to the effect that the petitione: pray the Board of Education to keep the schools open with the promise to pay as soon as the money is in_ sight. School Director Heed, in an interview, said: “I believe the board has no right 10 take away any portion or the whole of the school teacLers’ salaries. They do their work and they are legally entitled to be paid forit. Itis illegal to deprive them of it. No one teacher wanis to raise any legal opposition to such action, but if all the teachers were in accord and took a united stand against it, it would do some good. Theonly way to meet the deficiency is either to close the schools for a month or to make an agreement with the teachers of the City as a whole by which they would teach that month without pay, waiving agreeing to receive it at the beginning of the fiscal year from an appropriation especially set aside for that purpose.” A suggestion has been made by a teacher that an open meeting of tne teachers may be called that they may express their view J S SPEMR GOES AT, He Will Visit Mark Hanna and Attend the Inau- gural.

When the City Hall Commissioners came together yesteraay City Attorney Creswell made a suggestion for the beau- tification of the corridors. There is no money to carry out the work and he ad- mitted, therefore, that for the present there will be no such adornment as he had in mind. He believes that the corridors could be wainscoted with marble to the heizht of fifteen feet and the walls above the wainscoting painted in oil, for a cost of $75.0.0. Toe length of the corridors 1s nearlv one and a half miles. Tbe other Commissioners, Mayor Phelan and Auditor Broderick, agreed that this would improve the hall. The architect was in- structed to prepsre a more ornamental structure for a news-stand than the one now existing as a news-stand on the ground Acor. e SR FRIEDLANDER'S ESCAPE. He Was Struck by a Bullet, but Not Wounded. T. Cary Friedlander, secretary of the Produce Exchange Call Board, had a nar- row escape on- Thursday. He was cross- ing Montgomery street, near the Mills building, when a bullet struck him 1n the back. o It was discovered that a 36 - caliber cartridge had been placed on the car track vy some *joker,” and had been exploded a south-bound Montgomery-street car, he cartridge was loaded, and the bullet had found its mark in Mr. Friedlander. Investigation revealed that the bullet, while sufficiently strongly impelled to deal Mr. Friedlander a sharp blow, haa not enongh force to penetrate his clothes. Yesterday Mr. Fried!ander’s friends were congratulating him on his escape. - Gardner’s Appointment Confirmed. The appointment of Rev.

'HE LEFT LITTLE HERE BUT REGRETS Will E Fisher's Assets Give Creditors Small Consolation. His Wife, Who Is a Loser, Firmly Declines to Furnish Assistance. Cbarles S Neal Appointed at a Meet- ing cf Cruditors to Prosecute Their Claims. Will E. Fisher’s creditors held a meet- ing at the office of his atiorneys, Whit- worth & Shurtliff, yesterday forenoon to | discuss the situation, Nothing of a very che riul rature was elicited in the discus- sion. Most of the time was spent in con- sidering the liabilities, as the apparent assets seemed_hardly worth mentioninz. There were about thirty creditors in at- tendance, and according to the estimate of Miss Doran, Fisher’s cashier, there were lizbilities amounting to about $35,000 rep- resented. Of this amount, Mrs. Fisher, wite of the@ebior, 1s out $21,000. The estate of James G. Fair estimates its loss | at about $6600, the Wallace estate ciaims $1500, und the remainder of the liabilities ts mainly of rents collected for landlords and not accounted for. The assets are rather an uncertsin quan- | tity. M:ss Doran valued them at about | $4000, though from their nature it is hard | to put a definite value upon them. They consist largely of office fixtures, block- | books and othier appurtenances fo the real | estate business. Charles A. Shurtliff, one | ot Fisher's atiorneys, stated that Fisher | was in the habit of estimating his assets | at apout $8000, but Mr. Shurtliff did not | think they would bring $4500. Besides the liabilities reported Fisher issaid to have some other debts, which are not sup- posed to be large. His employes are safe, as. their claims, which are pre‘erred, amount to less than $100. With all his delinquencies, he is said to have alwavs managed to be quite prompt in his pavments to his emzloyes.

This firm represented Fisher in the suit which was brought against him by the Fair estate, but the attorneys say | they have nov seen their client for two weeks. At yesterday’s meeting a determination was expressed by all present not to aliow Fisher to go into insolvency. William H. Jordan, representing Mrs. Oasey, sug- | gested 'that all cluims be assigned to one | person, and he could then attach all | Fisher's property, sell it, and after de- | ducting costs divide the proceeds pro rata | among the creditors. ,This suggestion | met with popular favor, and Charles S. | Neal, representing the Fair esiate, was| apoointed assignee of the cluims. A | committee consisting of Charles 8. Neal, C. M. Jennings (Fisher’s stepson)and E. P. Blake was aprointed to secure the assignment of creditors. | Mr. Jennings was asked if Mrs. Fisher | was inclined to aid the creditors and he | gave a decided negative, stating that she was already a sufficently heavy loser. He also stated she would put in her claim for a pro rata of the proceeds. There was some talk among the smalier creditors yesterday of proceeding crimi- nally against Fisner, but the larger losers are too much intent on figuring out how | thev are to lessen their losses to think | much of any criminal action. | Although Fisher's embarrassment was | known to his friends and many of his ! business associaies, they ciasim to be |ignorant of the cause, as his business | was apparently extensive and lucrative. | Fisher, however, cizimed that bis con- | tract with Fair for the sale of the Holly Park lots was unprofitable, and that aiter | the expiration of s contract Fair often | promised to reimburse him. This state- ment he makes in a counter claim to the | Fair suit. | The statement in a morning paper that | John McDonnell, an employe of Fisher, | bad rul( ofa letter which they received from | | | also gone away, is incorrect.
