has been merged Into "The Grltlln Art
company," owned and capitalized at .a
large flguro by a titock company made
up of some of tho most prominent busi

BIG SHAKING UP
ATJHGII SCHOOL
DB. PHILLIPS AND PROFESSOR
LOOMIS ARE IN DANGER.
Report of High and Training School
Commlttco Contemplatos Removal
of the Principal and Assistant
Principal and Promotion of Pro
fessor John U. Wagner and Pro
fessor E. A. Cruttenden Miss
Mary L. Nlland to Qet tho Vacancy
in the Commercial Uepartmont
Board Did Not Meet.
But for tho absence of two members
of tho "loyal eleven" of the board of
control, Mr, Schwnss, who Is on his
wedding tour, nnd Mr. Evans, who hes
itated In becoming a party to the deal,
an attempt would have been made last
night to oust both the principal nnd
assistant principal of tho high school,
Dr. George AV. Phillips and Prof. F.
M. Loomls.
The thing was Intended as a surprise,
but It leaked put during the afternoon
and when the tlmo ror the mooting
came tho board found Itself without a
quorum, although every member, ex
cepting Mr. Schwass was about the
city hall.
Neither side wanted a meeting, the
majority becauso It needed its full
strength and did not have It; tho min
ority because it was opposed to the
scheme that was on foot.
Chairman Davis went through the
formality of calling tho meeting to or
der and declaring adjournment. Tlir
members who answered roll call were
nine in number, as follows: Messrs.
Shires, Phillips, Casey, Roche, May,
Schaeffer, Schrlefcr, Darker, Davis.
There was no significance attached to
the attendance. Had there been any
danger of a quorum thero would likely
have been an exodus from both sides
of the house.
NO CAUSE ASSIGNED.
No cause Is assigned by the high and
training school committee for the dis
missals their report recommends. Per
sonal unpopularity with tho faculty and
students and want of harmony with
tho administration are attributed as tho
reasons.
Prof. John U. Wagner Is scheduled
to be promoted nnd E. A. Cruttenden,
principal of No. 16, in tho Fourteenth
ward, is slated to take Prof. Loomls'
place as assistant principal. Prof.
James H. Hughes, another member of
the high school faculty, was threatened,
It is said, but was saved at the last
minute by outside influence.
The report further recommends that
Miss Mary L. Nlland, of 420 Emmet
street, stenographer In the office of Jes
aup & Jessup, be appointed to the
vacancy In tho commercial department,
created by the resignation of Miss
ICatherine A. Haggerty.
Tho report of tho teachers' commit
tee was also prepared and ready to be
submitted last night It recommended
no dismissals and very few changes,
tha only ono of Importance being tho
promotion of Miss Mary A. Fltzglb
bon to tho prlnclpalshlp of No. 16, to
succeed Prof. Cruttenden. The vacancy
to be caused by tho resignation of Miss
Margaret Vlpond, of Primary A In No.
21, Is to be filled by tho appointment of
Miss Hart, of Green Ridge.
PERMANENT APPOINTMENTS.
The report further contemplates the
permanent appointment of the substi
tutes who are continuously employed
and also finds jilaces for two of this
year's graduating class of tho Train
ing school.
Tho heretofore announced provision
for an IncreaEW In the wages of begin
ners and Intermediate teachers who
have had twelve years' experience was
included In the report.
Graduates of a Normal school aro to
receive $35, where formerly they re
ceived only $23. Graduates of the High
and Training school are to start In at
$40 instead of $32, as formerly. A grad
uate of tho High school who also grad
uates from a Normal school will be
started In on tho same footing as a
High and Training school graduate.
Teachers of the Intermediate grade
who have taught for twelve years and
who now receive $50, are to receive $60
next year, provided tho committee's re
port is adopted, which condition, of
course, holds good also In tho other
case.
Tho High and Training school com
mittee is composed of tho following:
B. T. Jayne, John Gibbons, H. J.
O'Malley, Louis Schwass, D. I. Phil
lips. Tho teachers' commlttco Is made
up na follows: D. I. Phillips, Peter
Neuls, John Gibbons, Dennis J, Roche,
E. J. Leonard, II. J. O'Malley, F. S.
Barker.
A special meeting will likely be called
before the week Is over.

of History." Tho essayist was very
optimistic In his view of present day
conditions, believing that this century,
notwithstanding the pessimistic grum
blers, was the best and brightest of all.
He also took the ground that In one
hundred years from now licensed sa
loons would be a thing of the past.
Tho essay was thoroughly enjoyed by
all and a vote of thanks extended.

EVIDENTLY OF NOBLE BIRTH.
Examination of the Effects of Rev.
John Kowala.
An examination of the personal ef
fects of the lato Rov. John Kowala,
who was found dead In bed Saturday
morning nt his apartments on Summit
avenue, was conducted yesterday by a
committee of the Lutheran mlnlstcrlum
with a view of ascertaining some
knowledge of his family connections.
From letters found in his bunk It
was gleaned that he has a son and
daughter living in SUccia, Austria, nnd
an uncle who Is or was an officer in
tho Austrian army. Tho character of
tho correspondence would indicate that
the dead minister was from a family of
noblo birth.
Diplomas and certificates found
among his effects disclosed tha fact
that he was a graduate of the Vienna
Theological seminary and the Royal
University of Erlangen, and that ho
was accorded high honors In his
classes, especially In the languages,
having certificates of excellence In
Latin, Greek, French and Hebrew.
Ho was born In Nodeck, Austria,
May 31, 1845, nnd was, therefore, 51
years of age. His children will be noti
fied at onco of his death.
Tho funeral will take place this morn
ing at 10.30 o'clock. Services will bo
conducted at tho Holy Trinity Lutheran
church by Rev. C. G. Spleker. Inter
ment will bo made In Dunmore ceme

CONSPIRACY ACT
NOT GOOD LAW
OPINION HANDED DOWN
JUDGE QUNSTER.
BY
Ho Says tho Act of Juno 4, 1807, la
Unconstitutional and Therefore Ho
Mado Absoluto tho Rulo to Quash
tho Indictment in tho Case of
tho Commonwealth Against George
Clarke, Who Was Indicted nt tho
Instanco of Lowis A. Mack.
Reasons for tho Judges Action.
Judge F. W. Gunster yesterday de
clared unconstl' ' 'nal tho act of the
legislature of Oiino 4, 1S97, known as
the "conspiracy act," which was In
tended to "protect employes of cor
porations In their right to form, Join
or belong to labor organizations by
prescribing penalties for any Interfer
ence therewith."
George Clarke, a foreman for Hunt
& Council, was Indicted under this act
at tho Instance of Lewis A. Mack, who
alleged that ho was discharged by
Clarke because ho belonged to a labor
union.
When tho caso camn up for trial a
motion was inndo to qunb tho Indict
ment on tho ground that the act was
unconstitutional.
Tho matter was argued at tho last
term of argument court and yesterday
Judge Gunster handed down his opin
ion declaring the act unconstitutional
and making nbsolute the rule to quash
tho Indictment. The opinion Is a3 fol
lows: JUDGE'S OPINION.
Many reasons havo been assigned In
support of this rulo. Many of them are
aimed at the constitutionality of tho act
i.nder which tho Indictment Is drawn.
We do not think It necessary to con
sider nil of them, Tho indictment Is
drawn under the act of Juno 4, 1S97, P.
L, llu, entitled "An act to protect em
ployes of corporations In their right to
form. Join or belong to labor organiza
tions by prescribing penalties for any In
terference therewith."
It Is a fundamental prlnclplo of our
government, firmly engrafted on the con
stitution by the fourteenth amondment
that no state shall deny to any person
within Its Jurisdiction tho equal protec
tion of the law. The act In question af
fords no protection whatever to tho em
ploye of tho individual or firm or llmltsd
partnership. On tho contrary while the
employe of n corporation, under Its pro
visions, may freely form, Join or belong
to any lawful labor organization, his
neighbor engaged In the same occupation
or trade when employed by an Indi
vidual or firm, may be as freely banished
for doing tho samo thing.
The word liberty as used In our con
stitutional declarations means moro than
freedom of locomotion. It Includes and
comprehends among other things freedom
of speech, tho right of self defenso
against unlawful violence, tho right to
llvo and work whero ho will, to earn his
livelihood In any lawful calling, to pursue
nny lawful trado or avocation, and to
freely buy and sell ns others may. Story
on Constitution, 5th rd.. sec. 1590, and, it
may bo added, to employ and discharge
whomsover you wilt for reasons that are
satisfactory to yourself. Commonwealth
vs. Brown, 8 Superior Court Roports 339,
Is a case bearing upon this question, and
Is well worth careful studying.
A SPECIAL LAW.
But tho question need not bo decided
on thpso well established principles. The
act of assembly under consideration Is In
violation of artlclo 3. section 7, or our
stato constitution, which provides that
"tho general assembly shall not pass any
locat or special law regulating
labor, trade, mining or manufacture," It
cannot bo sustained as a police regula
tion. It Is a special law applicable only
to cases of employes of corporations. Tho
rulo Is mado absolute.
This opinion Is of Importance from
tho fact that this was the first prosecu
tion In tho stato under this act and
consequently tho first tlmo It received a
Judicial review.
