SCHOOL BOARD IS UNANIMOUS
AS TO THE BUDGET
President Zimmerman'* Letter to
the Mayor Accompanying the
Htiditet Pre«ent« the Cane Very
IMalnly, ami Declare* It* Need* to
Be of the «reate«t Importance to
the Community.
The school budget for the year com
mencing Sept. 1, IS9B. and ending June
30, IMS, as prepartd by the board of
school Inspectors, was submitted to
Mayor Kiefer yesterday by President
Zirrimermann, of the board.
The budget asks for a total of $4C1,
--e,> which is $41,578 more than wae al
low, <1 by me council for the last year.
Thi ii crease in salaries to be paid
teachers is $'.'5,626.38 more than was
imid the past year. This is accounted
fw from the fact that there were 521
teachers last year and the budget for
the coming year calls for 550.
Tiv budget also calls for $30,540 for
salaries of engineers and janitors,
which is $5,521.1 more than was expend
ed last year. The remainder of the
Increase over the amount allowed by
the council last year is for repairs on
ai ,1 additions to buildings.
The total amount asked for by the
board is dlvi'Jed as follows:
For tahiries of teaches * 3^'?m
For salarifs o: engineers and janiurs. J5,;-iy
For salaries of officer* and clerks .... 7.36J
For purchase of tuel ».«»
For j.urchase of supplies V ,
For use oi real estate committee Zi> v.i)
Total **0,878
Accompanying the budget was a let
ter from President Zimraermann ad
dressed to Mayor Kiefer, in which he
In compliance with the charter require
ments I ha\e the honor to submit for your
oouslderation a lull and comprehensive leP^rt
■bowing the requirements and ,«übm tting the
annual budget lor the maluter.aiice oi our
tree sh<x,ls system.
The most important question now calling
upvu the attention of thi3 board is that of
providing proper school facilities to acrom
modate our constantly Increasing school popu
lation. At i>ies>ent our solio.'l accommoda
tions are totally inadequate for the accom
modation of pupils who are entitled to school
privileges.
We inu^t have a.l day sessions if possible,
«,nd g. od. well-wanued. well-lighted aud well
ventuaied sehiK)! rooms; not annex rooms In
stores, churches, and other buildings, which
are in no way adapted for school purjO.es.
The construction of new bui. dings and ad
ditions to our present o-nes is a serious mat
ter and should be given attention at ti.is
time.
The construction of new buildings has long
been neglected or made impossible by lacK
of funds and the opening of the frese:it a hjol
Veai iii.ds Lhui alnu-.st every school district
Is greatly in need of additional noms.
The expenditure within the cext thre" years,
for this purp<>se, of $250. 000 would not more
thaii meet the requirements, therefore we can
eider it unwise, In the city's present financial
condition (hampered as we are by legislation)
to ask for a sum sufficient to meet the re
quirements, on account of the enarmous
amount that would be necessary to nijet the
demands.
lii submitting this budget we make no re
quest for a fund for new school bui'dlngs,
jut renew our request of last year, as reoom
fliended In my letter to your predecessor,
tirheiein we question the advisability of the
construction of new buildings when we have
t>ut a limited amount available for educational
purp; ses.
We advise the preservation, so far as pos
sible of our present school syptetn, and the
repair of buildings in order that they miy ba
habitable and fit for occupancy.
It has been the custom of the council to
allow suoh inadequate sums for the commit
tee on real estate, that many repairs and im
provementa have long been neglected, year
. afttr yiar, and the present deplorable condi
tion of our buildings makes It necessary that
relief be granted at once; that a larger
amount be allowed this year we deem essen
tial for the economical maintenance of the
school property and to preserve It from fur
ther deter ioraricn.
Tins past year has managed to hold the
total maintenance account within the limit
of f420,00Q allowed, but such economy has
not been fffrclcd without Injury; it no long
er can be said that further economies are pos
sible "v.'lthout impairing the efficiency of the
school system."
Economy which means a refusal to build
school buildings and properly equip them, al
lowing the employment of the proper num
ber of teachers and placing no more than
the proper number of pupils In each room, is
a short-sighted- policy, which results In a
forced Impairment of our greatest institu
tion.
It is doubtless a good thing and a wise.
policy to economize in other lines of munici
pal affairs, but when it comes to applying
rigid rules of economy In equipping schools
you strike at the foundation of the institu
tlc n un>n highly prized by all our citizens.
The trouble is a great many people do
pot or will not realize that the educational
affairs in St. Paul can no longer be conducted
OB a village plan, and that our city Is a» I
great and prosperous as our people try to
make It.
There should be, and I believe there is, no
difference of opinion regarding the mainte
nance of our schools upon the highest and
broadest plane.
We dtsire an appropriation by the coun
cil of a sum sufficient to maintain the schools
for the entire year upon the basis suggested
by the accompanying budget.
After a careful consideration of all mat
ters by each and every member of the board,
we have determined that any less amount will
shorten the school year, and the action of the
council will entirely govern our plans for the |
cmi loyment of teachers and laying out of. j
the school work for the ensuing year.
It is our hope that public attention will j
be aroused to the necessity of securing reme
dial legislation in order to give relief And
raise the present school tax rate from two
and one-haif mills to a rate sufficient to meet
the requirements of our educational system.
We desire that the teachers may feel sec.iro
in their positions and the unrest that hai
bti n iVlt in the past may be replaced by a
feeling of confidence. The teachers deserve
great credit for the efforts they have made to
hold thembelves to their regular duties under
the adverse conditions of the past few years.
It is to be hoped that before the c!o3e of I
another year matters will have assumod
definite shape and that any changes In the
administration will have co commended them- j
selves that we can all undertake our duties (
with a feeling of certainty and solidity.
The majority of the members of this beard
feel encouraged in being able to say that the
general oversight of the educational Interests t
arc In charge of an official who is a superin- i
tendent in everything that the term Implies,
and that whatever Is needful for an Improved
efficiency in our schools will be Impartially
carried out.
If St. Paul Is to be and remain a truly
great city, it can only he through the educa- !
tion given to her children in the ehV.lc |
schools, therefore, we need and ask your :
Bympathy and support; the co-operation of the j
common council and of the citizens of this i
city, to whom the public sehr.ols belong and ;
who have a deep interest in their welfare and
effn'toticy.
The budget gives the number of
tone.e ra n- ; ci d du:lng f. c corning year
as 550, with salaries as follows:
1 at $2,100 1 at $1,700, 1 at $1,020, 2 at $1 600,
8 at $1.4..'0, 1 at $1.3U0. 8 at $1,200, 8 at $1 150
1 at 1.100. 1 at $1,080, 1 at $1,050, 32 at $1 000*

at $400, 12 at $350.
Schedules submitted with the bud
get showed that the number of pupils
attending the schools for the past year I
was: 24.240, and the total number of i
eittings Is given as 20,556.
For the year ending June 30, IS9B !
salaries paid were as follows:

Salaries paid mechanics and labor

Salaries paid officers and clerks 6,575 00
Total salaries paid $373,025 46
Under the law the budget must be
sent to the council within ten days
after it is received by the mayor. The
council has the power to change the
total amount asked for by the board by
reducing the total amount to be paid
for salaries to teachers and employes,
bit has no power to increase or raise
the same.
Mayor Kiefer slated yesterday, that
as the law pave him the authority to
approve or disapprove of the recom
mendations cf the school board and
make recommendations to the council,
he should take the budget under con
sideration. It was hardly possible, he
thought, that It would be sent to the
council before the week commencing
July 11.

WENT ON THE SAME TRAIN.
Bnt In Other BespectH the I. title
Portion Were Very Different.
Among the passengers on the Great
Northern coast train which left the
union depoc Friday afternoon were
five children. Two, who have been
brought up In luxury, traveled in a
private car, while the two others were
poor little tots who were going alone
from Chicago to Seattle, with none
but strangers to extend a helping hand
to them.
The private car party were the son
and daughter of Marcus Daly, the
millionaire ranchman, of Montana.
They are Marcus Daly Jr. and his sis
ter, Miss Nadge Daly, Howard Welch,
a friend, and Mrs. Shields and Mrs'
Corbett. Young Daly is returning
from school in New Hampshire with
his friend Welch, and Miss Daly has
been visiting Eastern friends. Their
car is furnished with every comfort,
and they reported that they had a
very pleasant trip. They came from
Chicago on the Omaha road.
The other children were Elias and
Zella Cook, aged five and four, re
spectively, who are on their way from
Chicago to Seattle. They, too, came
over the Omaha, road, and were met
at the depot by Passenger Agent J.
P. Turner, of the Great Northern, who
had received advices about them from
Passenger Agent Lowery, in Chicago.
They recently lost their mother, and
their father, who is in business in
Seattle, sent for them, trusting to the
railroad companies to take them safe
ly on their long Journey. Their bag
gage consisted of one small grip, which
the boy carries with considerable
pride, while he linked arms with his
sifter, who clung to him fearing they
might become separated and lost. The
tots attracted a good deal of Interest
and sympathy among the passengers.
They had tickets for a berth, and sev
eral ladies volunteered to look after
them during the journey to the coast.
WAR SETTLED ALASKA.
Pat Conley Says There Is No Travel
Into the Conntry.
Pat Conley is home from Alaska. Mr. Con
ley went Into the country wrth the Idea of
going to Dawson or some of the settlements
at the head of the Yukon. He only went as
far as Lake Bennet.
"The war settled the business of Alaska,"
said he. "Last spring it was thought that
half the people of the country would be off
to the gold fields this summer. Instead of
that resulting, there is no travel into th«
country at all. Seattle Is dead, so Is Ska-
uay. At Lake Bennet. the other side of tha
pass, there is a little colony of people ia
tents but there is no sort of excitement.
"It is expected 'that there will be four or
five millions in dust brought out this season,
but as yet there is no news from the dig
gings.
"It is co trouble to get Into the country
now, for there Is a tramway over the Chll
coot. There Is a railroad that is being
pushed rapidly along and if there is a re
vival of Interest in the country this summer
people will get over the pass all right I
understood that there were to be a couplo of
steamers put on the lakes soon after I left.
I came home direct from Bennet."

EVASION OF STAMP DUTIES
EXPRESS AND
COMPANIES DENOUNCED
Promlifent Local Merchant)* For
mally ProteHt Asainut Having to
Pay tUe Tnxca of the Railrond
and Teleft-raph Companies, and
Warn Them Nott to Tread Too
Hard on the Tom of the Public.
St. Paul merchants generally and
the jobbers In particular have taken
positive measures to express their
views of the action of the big ex
press and telegraph companies In sad-
Sling on the general public the burden
which the debates in congress clearly
showed were intended to be borne by
the carriers and telegraph companies
themselves.
It was evident from the temper of
congress at the time the tariff bill
was under consideration that It was
desired to impose the burdens of the
war as far as possible on those in
stitutions which, while enjoying the
benefits of the government 'to a great
er extent than the private individuals,
had yet not been compelled to assume
the share of the cost of its mainte
nance proportionate to the protection
afforded them.
This is the view taken of the case
by the St. Paul Jobbers, and the fol-
I lowing protests, submitted yesterday
| to the addresses, show distinctly the
l temper of the general business public
j of the capital city:
United State Express company, Adams Ex
press company, Great Northern Exp-.esa
company, American Express company
Wells-Fargo Express company, Northern
Pacific Express company.
We, the wholesale merchan's- and manu-
I facturers of St. Paul, most empha 1 ally pro
test against your refusal to accept goods
fiom us, unless we furnisti revenue stamps
for your receipt to us for game. We con
sider such action on your part neither r'ght
nor reasonable, and feel sure that it is ro. In
accordance wi;Ji the laws governing common
carriers or the revenue law as it now s'anda.
We ask that your action in this matt-r be
at once rescinded, and tihat you attach tb.3
i stamp, as reg,uircd of you by law, to your
j own receipts. If necessary to advance your
I charges, R is within your power to do" so,
I but we do not believe it is within your pow-
I er to force us permanently to provide you
with revenue stamps to attaah to your own
receipts.
To avoid annoyance and less to customers
j and ourselves, we may comply with your
j arbitrary demand temporarily and under pro-
I test, but unless it ia promrjt'y wit", drawn we
must appeal to the commissioner of Internal
revenue and look to you for any loss to us •
consequent upon your action. Our good will
Is worth something to you, and you will best
retain it by prompt and willing attention to
what seems to us a reasonable request.

We must, of course, appeal from your de
cision to the commissioner of internal revenue

interest of the company and Its patrons.

Building and Loan Association Law
of 1897 Declared Invalid, but the
Security Savings and Loan Asso
ciation, Which Took Advantage
wt It, la Acquitted of Any Wrong
by Circumstances of Its Business.
The supreme count, In an opinion
written by Chief Justice Start yester
day In the case of John A. Sjoberg
et al. vs. the Security Savings and
Iyoan association, of Minneapolis, yes
terday sustained the law of 1894.
Sjoberg and the other parties in the
action were stockholders in the Se
curity Savings and Loan association
and brought action for the appoint
ment of a receiver. The savings and
loan association had subsequently, un
der the provisions of the law passed
in 1897 permitting companies or asso
ciations of that nature to go into vol
untary liquidation to wind up their
affairs, taken such steps, and the
plaintiffs .attacked the constitutional
ity of the law on the ground that it
contained no enacting clause.
The court holds that the objections
of the plaintiff are valid, and for that
reason the law of 1897 Is without ef
fect.
Judge Start's opinion, which is quite
lengthy, says: "Unless a constitutional
provision shows upon its face that it
was intended to be director/, it must
be accepted as the imperative man
date of the sovereign people, and not
as good advice, where the legislature
or the courts may accept or reject as
they please. The safety of the state
and the protection of the liberty and
rights of its people demand that this
will be strictly adhered to.
While the court holds the law of 1897
regulating the functions of building
and loan associations invalid, it grants
the Security Savings and Loan associ
ation a new trial and reverses the or
der of the Hennepin county district
court, on the grounds that the associa
tion had no outstanding liabilities, and
it owed no persons except its stock
holders, and, therefore, had a perfect
right to, if a- majority of the stock
holders so decreed, go into voluntary
liquidation. Kris the company did
some time previous to the time the
action was brought, as above stated,
and the Sjoberg party attacked its
action also on the grounds that it was
not for the best interests of the stock
holders, and that the affairs of the
company are being miserably man
aged. The supreme court, In reversing
the lower court's findings, says there
is nothing in the evidence to prove this
and grants a new trial to allow the
estranged stockholders to settle the
case or fight it out strictly on its legal
points.
The syllabus is as follows:

1. Article IV., section 13, of the constitu
tion of the state, which provides that the
style of all laws of this state shall be: '"Be
it enacted by the legislature of the state of
Minnesota" is mandatory and a statute with
out any enacting clause is void.
2. It is not competent, for the purpose of
sustaining the validity of a statute which had
no enacting clause when It was sent to and
was approved by the governor, to show that it
contained an enacting clause when it passed
the legislature.
3. Where a building and loan association
has no creditors or liabilities except Its lia
bility to its stockholders on account of their
stock, and there is a deficiency in its assets
so that it cannot mature its stock or pay
back to its stockholders the actual money
paid on their stock, it is not insolvent in
the sense In which the word is used In
chapter 76, G. S. 1894, providing for the ap
pointment of a receiver for corporations when
they are insolvent.
4. A court of equity has Jurisdiction to
wind up the affairs of a building and loan
association, and for that purpose to appoint

of its stockholders, whenever the purposes for
which it was- organized have failed, and It
is shown that such action is reasonably nec
essary for the protection of the Interests of
such stockholders.
5. Where the trial court makes findings of
fact as the basis of its order (although it is
unnecessary so to do) and omit 3to find all
facts legally necessary to sustain the order,
It will be reversed unless the record con
clusively shows that the order is right.
6. Held that the findings of fact of the
trial court are not sufficient to Justify Its or
der appointing a receiver herein. Order re
versed and a new trial granted.

First National Bank of Minneapolis,
lant, vs. City of St. Cloud, respondent.
Syllabus— l. This was an action to recover
the contract price for hydrant rentals, and
the defendant was entitled to have d«due'ed
from such price its damages for an incom
plete performance of the contract. The dam
ages actually deducted by the referees W3re
claimed by the defendant to be less than It
was entiiiled to. Held, following Lane vs
Doylan. 56 Minn., 90, that a motion wai
properly made for a n«w trial on the ground
that the decision was not justified by tho
evidence.
2. This case was referred to referees to
hear and determine, and they did so. There
upon the court granted on conditions a now

flcation s'&ted in Hughley vs. City of Waba
sha 72 N. W., 78,; apnlics to this case, and
that the trial court did not abuse its discre

by the fault of another. In casos it Is la
competent to give opinion evidence tending to
establish the amount of damages 'they are to
be assessed in such reasonable sum as in the
Judgment of the court or jury the evidence
warrants. Ordor affirmed. —Start, C. J.

executor for the loss of trust funds deposited
in a bank which failed is whether he hon
estly exercised in tho premises that deg-t->
of care which men of common prudrnce cr
dlnarlly exercise In their own affafra.
2. Upon the trial of such an issue it was
not error for the trial court to permit the
executor to testify that when he made the do
posit he believed the bank was solvent, and
that he handled the trust funds as carefu'ly
a* hla own.
3. Held, that the evidence In this ca3e sus
tains the finding of the trial court to the ef
i feot that the respondent did exercise due
care and nrudeaca in the management of, tbe

2. Where a municipal corporation Is act
ing under color of law, and i-xercising nil of
the functions and powers of a corporation
de jure, and the legality of its incorporation
has not been questioned by the Btate, but,
on the contrary, it has been recognized as
such for some years by the state, neither the
municipal corporation nor any private party
can question the validity of Its corporate ex
istence in a collateral action or proceeding.
3. The defendant Issued Its negotiable
bonds, pursuant to a majority vote or the
electors of the village, for the purchase of
water works for the village, under the pro
| visions of Laws 1863, chapter 200. The bonds
I recited that they were Issued under this act,
| end that all the requirements of the constitu
tion and laws of the state had b?cn fully
complied with in the Issuance thereof. In
fact, the statute had not been complied with
in that tho bonds were not advertised for
sale and cold at not less than par, but w. re
I issued directly to a corporation in payment
| of a system of water works purchased of it
: for the village. Held, following l-\ilton vs.
Town of Rlverton, 42 Minn., 395, that the
bonds were valid in the hands of a bena
fide holder for value without notice.
4. The plaintiff acquired the bonds as col
lateral security for a loan made by X to a

for the value thereof. He is not required to
first bring an equitable action to set aside the
sale.
2. An allegation In general terms by a
plaintiff suing- as a receiver that at such
a time in such an action or proceeding and
by such a court or officer he wai duly ap
pointed receiver of the estate of such a party
is sufficient.
But a complaint which does not Btate tho
action or proceeding or the court in and by
which the plaintiff was appointed receiver is
not sufficient on demurrer. Order reversed.

SHOULD BE COMPULSOBY.
Attendance of the Deaf at the State
School Is I rued.
The report of the committee on coinpu:Bory
education was one of the important matters
considered at the morning session of the state
association for the deaf yesterday. The re
port was presented by O. Hansen, of Farl-
I bEult, chairman of the committee.
The total enrollment of the school s'n-e its
foundation has been 787 pupils. Of t'aese
231 have graduated or received honorable dis
charges, and 346 have left tre school lor one
reason or another before the CDiaple ion of
their course. Less than half the pupils com
plete the course allowed by law. The most
serious matter is the number of deaf children
who <so not attend the school at all. In
1891-2 there were 212 pupils in the school, yet
the report of that year gave the names of V 66
other deaf children of school age who were
not attending that or any other Institution.
According to the census returns, there are In
the state 1,400 deaf persons. Of that, number
not more than 700 can be accounted for at the
present t me, as being educated, for some of
those who attend school have since died.
Many who do come to the schools enter m
such an advanced age that Instruction is diffl.
cult. Out of the 757 admitted, 127 were over
16 years of age, or about one-^ixth of the
whole number. The hope that this situat r on
would imporve as the school became better
Known, has not been carried out. Out of 201
admitted since 1892, forty-four wee over IS
years of age. The percentage of illiteracy
among the deaf and mutes must be as high
as 60 per centum. The report says there is
no reason why a single deaf child should grow
up without education. B
As a sample of the error of admitting older
people into the institution, and an argument
for admission, under compulsion, while chil
dren, Mr. Hansen said one man was admitted
by special permission, when 35 years if a**
and was put In the class with children 8 and"
10 years old. He was anxious to leirn, but
could not. He gave it up in discouragement
me report urged some system of compulsory I
education. In summing up the report the I
following deductions were drawn:
First— From one-third to one-'.ia'f the deaf
in the state do not attend school at all and
receive no instruction whatever.
Second— Those who do attend schcol, do not
on an average, remain half of the timo to
which they are entitled.
Third— To correct this, it was recommended
that public sentiment be aroused and eff rta
made through legislation or otherwise to
secure the benefits of education for a greater
number than heretofore.
The report was unanimously adopted.
J. C. Howard, of Duluth, was e'pc'el presi
dent; Thomas Sheridan, of Faribault first
vice president; Charles Thompson, of St' Paul
second vice president; J. S. Bow of Minne
apolis, secretary; L. W. Hodgeman, of Red
Wing, treasurer.
In the afternoon an address to the associa
tion was given by the present superintend
ent of the school at Faribault, J. N. Tate,
In which he paid a high tribute to the work
left him by Dr. J. L. Noyes. A paper was
read by J. L. Smith, instructor of the d<-af
setting forth the brief history of the school at
Faribault. Mr. Smith paid a high compliment
to the energy and steadfast fidelity of Hod
Rodney A. Mott, one of me directors of rh B
schcol, for the fortunate selection of the
present .site of the school grounds thirtv-flvo
years ago. Mr. Smith said that cine thin.? he
wished to put forward is the school at Fari
bault is not overcrowded, and that compared
with other states, the Minnesota school leads
tho list. As one of the successful schools for
the deaf, and regarding the industrial or
trades departments he looked for further
progress in the near future productive of bet
ter results. This state had pioneered and
roughed it. so to speak, and the trade 3, of
course, had suffered in the past. The deaf
were now following at least fifty vocations.
Ten Faribault students had taken degrees at
the National Deaf Mute college at Washing
ton, D. C.
Religious service will be held at the First
Baptist church this morning at 10:30 a. m

at 9:30. They will spend the Fourth on tho
steamer Henrietta and at the Dalles of thp
St. Croix.
The steamer leaves the dock at the foot

NOT AGAINST BANK FAHUKES.
Point iin to Surety Dondi Made Clear
by mi Asnemblyman.
"There is no chance," said a member of the
assembly yesterday, "for the resolution di
recting the payment by the city of the
premium on a surety bond for the city treas
urer to pass the council.
"To tell the truth I don't sea wliy «uch
action should be taken. The majority of the
council, aa well as the citizens, have a
wrong idea as to the question. It Is thought
by many that if a surety bond was secured for
the treasurer It would mean the city would be
reimbursed in case any of the banks In
which city funds were deposited should cloee.
"There Is nothing to this content vi, the
only thing the surety bond does Is to protect
the city against any loss which might happen
by reason of the dishonesty or earelewness
of the treasurer or any of his deputies. These
does ont seem to be any likelihood of this, and
for one, I shall oppose the payment of $1,7C0
or any other sum from city funds for tae
purpose of securing a surety bond."
