Th< ; y to be trnull ? in th' Brooklyn, N. ?., sebool board nex Tuesday over tbo receut selection o a colored min as a teacher in schoo N ?. 114, which is located in Canar sie. AotlT-rt will be made at thii meeting to have the appointment re vok?d. Threats on the part of th< corps of white teaehers in the schoo to resign in a body if the appoint ment is not recalled complicate th< situation. William L. Buckley, Ph. D., is th( roan to whom these objections art made. At the meeting ol the schooi board, November 1.?, Stmu*l B Scottron, chairman of the local com mtttee of No. 114 ?chool, asked tot hi' appointment as teacher, but said nothing about his color. If r. Scot I ron is himself a colored man, and the only represeutative of his race on ihn b >&rd. Tnere arc only a few c rlored children in the school, and Ibey bave never been collected into a ?-epnrate cl?.8s. The local committee of this school consists of Mr. Seottron, Dr. J. K. Powell, and Edward M. Bissctt. Dr. Powell, it ?ppetrt, bad been previ ously seen by Mr. Seottron with n f erence to the appointment, and ma<le DO Objection. Taere i?- no doubt as to the qualifications of Mr Buckley. Bit color is the only Objection fouud lo him. Tbe other teaeberi declare Hint ihev will not teach alorifsido a c il ?r.d teacher. Mr. Scott ron said a fewdiysagotha Buckley is not a str?nget in educa tional circles, as nine months ago b. was applicant for tbe position ol te'cher of languages in the E ?stert District High School. " Ho was formerly vice presided of the Clafliu University, in South Carolina, and a teacher of lacgu ages," coDtinued Mr. Scottron. " He came to Brooklyn more than a yeai ago in tbe interest of tbe university, and was so favorably impressed thai he decided to remain. loSeptembei he paused an examination under Dr. Mtxwell, city superintendent ol schools, for tbe position of assistant principal. " There was a vacancy in No 11*1 school a little later, and I thought Mr. Buckley would be a good man to 811 it. I icnt him to Messrs. Baiic-tt and Powell, who consented to his ap? pointment. Later Mr. Bissett with drew bis consent on tbe gr?.?uud that he bad thought it was a class of ool ored children be was to tench, and ! not white children. Mr. Basselt ex I citedly ir.fo-med me that he had beard fir m tbe teachers of the school, I who declared (bat if Mr. Buckley was plac il iti tbe rchool th y irould ie g On learning of this Mr. Hcottron ? oallod ?. ineetirg in the school, at wbicl Dr Powell j ?

Nothing, like tbe ?.'??ueri.l advance in wagee of industrial employes bas been w.tnessed for m?iny years ,aiid this has bem Meompliibod with a minimum of friction. The cl" the year fiuds manufacturers' order b.)oks tilled for three to six mouths ahead in nearly all lines. Distribu? tive trade was of immense volum<< throughout the year. Tbe hoi day buBiuesg suppas?ed ail previous re? cords. Notwithstanding smaller exports of agricultural products during tbe calendar year, breftd.-tuffi shipments being 10 per rent, smaller, cattle and hogs exp i t 12 per cet t less and cot? ton shipments, owing to the short crop, at least 15 per cent less, there was such an expansion in onr manu? factured exporta that the entire ex. port trade of the year will consider? ably exceed that of last oalecder year, which was the heaviest ever recorded. The to'al exports were little less than $1280 000 iu value, an aggre? gate which, if reached, will mark a gain of 3 per cent, over the record total of 1898. Imports have naturally showed a marked revival, and if the gain for tbe 11 mouths is maintained for De. M a total little below $800,000, 000 may be expected, which would guarantee a total foreign trade well in excess of $2 OOO.OOO.COO, an amount, it might be remarked, never before equaled Breadstuff?) alone, of all the classes of staples, are lower now than they were a year ago, the decline being about 6 per cent. On the other hand, the manufactured or partly ointiu f ictured products, such as metals, raw aud manufactured textiles,build it,g materials, coal and naval st?ret, have scored remarkable gains. Met ale, as a wholo, are .">0 per cent, higher tan a year ago, due largely, tf course, to tbe upward rn??b of iron and steel prices, which have all prac tically doubled in value within the year. Raw cotton and wool have made especially noteworthy advance, and from beirg among the most depress? ed of industries, tbe textile manu? facturing trades have become among tbe busiest tbeie is record of. Oiber textiles have thared in this advance, and tbe result is that textiles asa cUfB are one third higher than a year ago Taking bank clearings as an index, the outlook at present favors a total at he Conakry's clearing houses, makirg comparison with previous years, of fully $93,300,000,000, an increase of 36 per cent overa year ago, of 74 per cent, over 1897 and of 51 per cent, over 1892, while, as com? pared with 1894, the volume of clear? ing ta* practically doubled. Tbe railroads nave done the beav* iest business in their history, as is proved by the gains noted alike in ??rose and net receipts over all pre? vious records.

Beck, a prominent young planter of Bibb cunty, Ala., bas brought tint la tbe United States court at Birmingham, against the Western Union Ttlegraph Company, for $10.000 damages, which be ?liims because, as he assorts, that corpora tion caused him to lose a wife. Btck, a jouug man name Kagland, and a third, whose name is not given, were all seeking the band of Miss Dora Ward, of Centerville, one of tbe most beautiful young women of that place. Each ?uitor was pressing for a favorable reply. Miss Ward, it is stated, wired each of them tbe same day that arch an answer might be forthcoming to the first suitor to reach her. Tbe young men resided in widely different places, and Kagland, hap? pening to be the first to reach Mis? Ward, wedded her. Beck, who was at Hepton, 200 miles away, telegraph? ed, begging her to give him sufficient time to arrive and to be sure to await his letter. The third man missed his train. Rack alleges in bis suit that tbe telegraph operator at Centerville was instructed to deliver his tele? graph to Miss Ward immediately, and claims there was a long delay in its delivery. The failure to deliver the message caused him to lose a wife, he says, and hence he wants damages.
