lioard Mils own on the Fruponitlon
The members of the board of educa
tion wera h'tgh'.y indignant this morning
when they Itarnei that the morning'
japer had announced that they had
mule an order clo3ing all the schools for
this afternoon, 30 that the children might
attend the horaa racea and go in free.
President It. si. Welch ia out of the city
but Jesse Shaw, vice president of the
Kurd whs ?e3n and he denounced the
Announcement as unauthorized.
Mr. riaaw said: "The only foundation
for ths report that I know anything
itbut, is that Guilford Dudley met me
on the street yesterday and said ho was
poinjj down to see Mr. Welch and ask
him to close tha schools Friday afternoon
to that the children might go to the
raes. lie said he thought it would be a
nice thing to du as the racing association
jiroposed to let all the school children go
in free."
Mr. ,Mhaw further said that there had
been co meeting of the board and that
tho matter had not been presented to
them and the hools would not be closed.
-Mr. S. C, Miller, a member of tho
board, said: "I am most decidedly op
posed to closing the schools to allow the
children to attend horse races and will
i.ot lend my inil.tence in that direction.
31 r. Davidson s ivs the schools will be in
session this aftruoon as usual, which is
right."
Mr. T. A. Beck, a member of the board,
paid: "The board of education has not is
sued an order closing the schools this
afternoon on account of the races. It is
a manor which does not have to come di
rectly before the board and couid be
determined by a majority of the board
simply noufyinj th superintendent of
their consent. I told Superintendent
Davidson to act as he thought best."
buj erintendent W. M. Davidson was
asked if it was true that the school were
to close to aliow the pupils to attend the
horse races. He said: "This is a matter
over which I have bo control. The
board of education governs the dismissal
of the schools and I have no jurisdiction.
I understand tt at the association has re
quested that ta schools be closed this
afternoon, but a majority of the board
are opposed to dismissal to attend horse
races, and I coincide with them."

To the Kditor of the matk Joe rxal:

PULLMAN HEARD FROM.
Ills Western Afct Talks About the Pro
posed C&rsliops Here.
W. H. Robinson, of Kansas City, west
ern superintendent of the Pullman Car
company, was in Topeka yesterday, and
had a few remarks to make about To
peka's prospective oar shops.
"It wtli not be a hard matter, I imag
ine," he said, "to secure them, but the
question is, will they live? I have seen
a good many of these co-operative
schemes of different kinds, and they in
variably tizzle out in a year or so. As a
matter of fact there will be no business
for the enterprise, as nearly the entire
mileage of the United States is contract
ed to either our company or Wagner's for
terms of twenty-five or fifty years. The
contracts are not expiring every day. We
have one small one that expires this year,
but it will certainly be roewed The.
next one will expire in 1SJ3, but it ia as
good as renewed now. New roads are
not being built to make new contracts,
and I don't see where another palace
car company in the country is going- to
get any business."
Mr. Robinson perhaps was not aware
that it is not the intention cf Mr. Myers,
who owns the patents, to build new cars
at present, but to put sleep. ng apparatus

verting all the cars on the tru.n iuto
