WEST SIDE EVENTS.
Large lacrease of Pupils io the Schoo Is

modations for Them.
Superintendent of . Schools Georga
Howell, In conversation with a Tribune
reporter last evening, stated that be
ginning at this morning's session of the
AVest Side schools every pupil will be
comfortably seated. The compulsory
education act has created a vans num
ber of old school attendants this year.
If it were not for the severul old build
ings which have been supplanted by
new ones, the great throng of children
could not .be accommodated.
The superintendent has been very
busy during the past two days In ar
ranging things at the schools about the
city. Everything is now in excellent
running order. No. 18 building, on
Swctlnnd street, could not seat the
number of children who made tlu-ir ap
pearance Monday morning. The old
annex on Sumner avenue was used tn
seat the overflow. The new teachers at
this building are Misses Grace Peck, 'SKI;
Kahcl Powell, '!3: Jessie Kellow ,
ami Jennie Daniels. Down at the
new No. 13 building on Bellevue Heights
there was a largo overllow of pupils.
Yesterday the number could not be ac
commodated with seats, but the su
perintendent hns made arrangements
fur today's sesskni.
Miss Jennie Fellows, '95, and Miss
Kate Mullen (normal), will today begin
to Instruct forty-five pupils each In the
old No. 13 building on Kynon street.
Professor J. C. Kemmerling is in charge
of the new No. 13. Under him are the
following teachers: Kliza Lewis, ';
Mary Harris, S4 ; Nellie liichards (nor

MIt. KEYNOLDS' COAT.
The Franklins met last nlelil but
nothing startling was done. No new
names were proposed as was i ui.i.iro 1
to be the Intention of the majori'y.
There was much heated discussion niii
It was stated that John H. Kcyivilla
fould legally proceed at; linrft Um'.so
members, who invaded his 1mm Mon
day evening and atteniptel tj laVe
from It a quantity of gocl:i. It tetins
that Thomas Allen and Wlllitim Kline,
of the company, swore out a search
warrant before Aldermai ,1'ihn for
certain parts of a fireman's paniphar
nulia, which Mr. Iteynolds had refused
to surrender to the company when he
was expelled nt a former meeting. Al
len and Klme wished to search Rey
nolds' home on South Main avenue.
Thus the warrant was Issued and con
stable John Davis and Mr. Allen en
tered the house. Mr. Klme stayed out
side. Mrs. Reynolds was" the only
one nt home and she told the
men that they had better wait
until her husband returned. How
ever, the constable and Mr. Allen
ransacked the house. In an upstairs
apartment they found Mr. Reynolds'
parade coat. The men were about to
leave the house with the garment In
their possession when Myron I'.vans, a
crfrrk in Felnberg's drug store, who
had been called by Mrs. Reynolds, ac
rosted the constable and Mr. Allen. Mr.
Kvans quietly expressed his own In
dividual oiilnlon that the search war
rant was Illegal ns It specltled "stolen"
goods, whereas no procf was nt hand
that the goods has been stolen. The
constable and Mr. Allen seemed to see
the point and they departed, leaving
1he coat behind. For these "outrages"
Mr. Reynolds threatens to envoUe the
aid of the law. He has consulted an
attorney.

j MILLION patriotic voters have rcc
Tj T) ognized the confusion of our pub
lic politics, and arc determined
toinform the nisei res, and stand like patriots
in the hour of their peril and vote to the best
of their knowledge, for the best interests of
the common people of the whole country. It
means further that every voter wants to
know, not only the doctrines of his own
party, but the views of all other parties and
the reason for the differences--Gold, Silver,
Tariff and Free Trade. To this end we have
secured a complete handbook of public po
litical information, edited by Lawrence F,
Prescott, WHICH WE WILL PRESENT TO
THE PURCHASER OF ANY MEN'S SUIT.

SOUTH SIDE NEWS.
Poisoning Doji Is Apia the Rage in the
Twentieth WardMiss Heffelfin
ger's Surprise Party.
Kvery now and then places become
greatly annoyed from the number and
undesirable kind of dogs which can be
found on the streets. Not lonff ago
some one undertook to exterminate
with poison all the dogs he believed It
would be a service to rid the community
of. Meat on which large closes of
strychnine were sprinkled, he would
leave In convenient places for them to
cat, but he took particular pains to
spread some dally for one particular
dog owned on Plttston avenue in the
Twentieth ward. Hut the time went on
and the brute is still alive, although it
must have swallowed enough poison to
kill a car load of horxoa.
The poisoning of dogs in the Twen
tieth ward Is again on, and some valu
able ones have been destroyed, by eat
ing the stuff thrown Indiscriminately
around. It Is causing a good deal of
Indignation.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New" York, Sept. 15. The stock mar
ket opened decidedly stronger on the
Maine election andl higher cables from
London. The prominent Issues ad
vanced about a point, the shorts being
the largest purchasers. When the de
mand from this source abated the
traders who were bearishly inclined
for the moment started In to sell. In
the absence of support they had little
difficulty In bringing about a lower
range of prices. There was also con
siderable selling by holders who were
dlsn'ppolnted on account of the rather
feeble response made by the market to
yesterday's election lif Maine and this
was of assistance to the bear manipu
lators. Tobacco bore the brunt of the
attack and fell to C9. Sucar fell
nearly 2 pr cent, on the declining
tendency of the market for raws, while
Chicago Gas was adversely Inlluenced.
dropping IT by Chicago advices that
Attorney General Muloney had re
newed the fight against the company.
The Granger group lost the lat
ter in Burlington and Qnlncy. Man
hattan fell 2. Western Vnlon , and
Missouri Pacific 1. Rumors of an ad
vance in the Hank of England rate of
discount on Thursday and of the em
barrassment of a big dry goods firm in
this city were used against the market.
The reports of trouble In the dry goods
trade however could not be confirmed.
At the decline there was moderate
buyers of the dividend payers, due to
statements that commercial conditions
In New England were Improving report
said that a number of mills employing
about 12,000 hands Intended starting up
shortly. This was not without Its In
fluence In some quarters. In the late
trading the Grangers weakened again
under pressure and speculation closecH
barely steady in tone. Net changes
show losses of 2T per cent.
