10 CREASY GUM SHOE IRK miED Said in Pittsburgh to Be Working to Put McCormick to the Front special to The Telegraph Pittsburgh, July 15. — William N. McNalr, of Pittsburgh, the Demo cratic candidate for secretary of in ternal affairs, does not propose to enter into a fusion deal with William Flinn and the other Bull Moosers. He thinks It Is time for the Democratic leaders to make it clear to the peo ple of the State that they have no in tention of trafficking with Flinn. It will be recalled that "Farmer" William T. Creasy, the Democratic nominee for lieutenant grovernor, ap peared in Pittsburgh on the night of June 29, the day before the Bull Moosers held their State conference at the Fort Pitt Hotel. Creasy mingled with the Moosers at that time and it was intimated that he was here to talk fusion. Recent deWlopments show the surmise must have been correct. Creasy has been sounding some lead ing Democrats to learn how they would view fusion and has even sug gested possible tickets. It ts under stood that he is ready to stand aside if the Flinn plan of sidetracking Wil liam Draper Lewis, the Washington nominee for governor, and indorsing Vance C. McCormick, Democrat, goes through. There is talk of making Lewis th® candidate for lieutenant governor. This scheme would elimi nate both Creasy and Percy F. Smith, the Washington nominee for tho place. The opinion is being expressed that Creasy In gathering the sentiment of the Democrats on fusion is acting for McCormick and possibly A. Mitchell Palmer, who do not want to appear In the open until they learn how the proposed deal with the Bull Moose boss is viewed. Palmer has denied on several occasions that he would get off the ticket, but there is no record of McCormick ever having said he would not deal with the Moosers.

WEDNESDAY EVENING HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH JULY 15. 1914. | Harrisburg School Sketches BY J. HOWARD WERT <k No. e—Somp Contrasts Between 1874 and 1914. What Forty Years Has Done In the Way of Our Public School Development. The High Schools of 1874 and 1914. As already stated, the seating ca pacity of all the school buildings of 1874, including many rented rooms, was 4,995. To-day it is 11,500, with a continual demand for more build ings. Forty years agro the city had 92 teachers in Its public schools, in i elusive of the four special teachers in music and drawing. To-day the tumber Is 295, or more than triple the teaching: force of 1874. 1 In 1874 the city had eighteen school buildings that were its own property, but nine of them were of the most trifling character for school purposes containing but one or two rooms. There were others that were equipped for a teaching force of but three, while the largest number of teachers that could be accommodated In any school building of the city was eight. To-day the Harrlsburg School Board has In use twenty-seven school bulld ! lngs, exclusive of the houses used only for open-air schools. But several of these are of a size so enormous and coritainlng so many rooms that from 16 to 25 teachers are required to in struct the pupils who pour through their portals dally. Indeed, it would be an easy task from these twenty seven school buildings to select five that would house the entire school population of Harrlsburg of 1874, and house them better than they then were accommodated. I'lnaucinl and Property Growth The public school directory of 1874 gives a carefully itemized statement of the property of the district, which sums up in value to $331,650 for real estate and $19,147 for furniture, mak ing a total of $350,797. To-day the real estate of the district is valued at $1,350,000, more than quadrupling the valuation of forty years ago; and it Is probable that this is a very conserva tive estimate. The valuation placed on the present furniture holdings of the district is $125,000, or more than six times the valuation of 1874. In this valuation of school proper ties of 1874 it Is interesting to note that the Boas and Verbeke buildings, now mere pigmies compared with more recent erections, head the list at 545.000 each. Then comes the DeWltt building at $35,000, the West State street school at $30,000, the old Harris Park frame and the Pennsylvania avenue each at $25,000, while the Mt. Pleasant, the Lochiel and the Ridge avenue (Sixth street) buildings are placed in the $20,000 class. Thus the valuation trails on down ward till we find that the school board of that period had buildings in which schools were conducted which, with the ground belonging to them, were valued at but $3,000 and $2,000, while the little shack in Fourth street, next to the Mt. Vernon flrehouse, which was a school room for many years, was rated at S6OO. The Two High Schools of 1874 But perhaps the most suggestive and interesting points of contrast be tween 1874 and 1914, Is presented by the statistics of the high schools then and now. In 1874 all the high school boys of the city were housed in a single room, occupying less than half the floor space of the second floor of the old Lancasterian building. This room was on the eastern side and could be made to accommodate about eighty pupils, or, more properly, about eighty husky boys, could be crowded Into it, very much like sardines in a box, with little regard to either comfort or sani tary conditions. Over this room presided Principal L. O. Foose with two assistants. Miss Martha M. Tomkinson and Miss Edith P. Leedy, in two little recitation rooms. Passing Impressions of Finance By H. L. Bennet For a patient considered but a month or so ago to have safely come out of a serious crisis as did the Mis souri Pacific when arrangements were made for the extension of a pressing note debt for another year, the pres ent sinking spell in the road's securi ties has unsettled all the high hopes then raised that it had been saved. In place of confidence there now pre vails grave doubts In many minds whether it has not become necessary for the so-called financial doctors of Wall Street to perform another am putation on the road's capital obliga tions so as to bring these obligations within those reasonable boundaries where the property can earn a com fortable living without the spectre of how to meet Its bills, constantly aris ing. , At no time In the Missouri Pacific's history has its securities and those of the properties with which it is affi liated sold at such low prices. Mis souri Pacific stock is under ten dollars a share, its convertible bonds around forty-six and one-half. Such low bot toms augur no good. People who own these securities are not selling them unless actuated by fear of the future. Certalhly these prices do not follow speculation for the short account. Denver & Rio Grande securities are also scraping the bottom levels. The Western Pacific first mortgage bonds whose interest and principal Is guar anteed by the Denver & Rio Grande are under forty-throe though when they were first sold to investors they brought ninety-six. It is In the Western Pacific where most of the troubles of the Gould lines rest. This Is Gould's folly. It cost so much money to build the road that in the four years it has operated, it has not been able to even earn the In terest on Its first mortgage bonds. This has necessitated the Denver & Rio Grande digging deep down into its own pockets to make good tjje big deficit. Without this heavy load on its back the Denver & Rio Grande no doubt would be to-day paying the preferred dividend without difficulty which It had to pass about two years ago to help out the cripple which it has been supportipg. How dull and unpsychological busi ness Is, Is borne out by the week's copper producers' statistics showing an increase in metal on hand of over 21,000,000 pounds. The steel Industry remains almost as quiet. Yet we may safely regard both these unsatisfac tory showing* as shadows of the past, while- other brighter signs from an other direction portend that a turn In the road has come leading to better things. Europe on one hand gives every indication of less dependence upon our financial stores. British con sols are steadily advancing in price. It was the British consols which first flaunted the signal of a world-wide liquidation from which this country could not escape, and we had to take back bags of our securities. France succeeded in arousing optimism all over the world by the brilliant suc cess it met in placing its last govern- one on the second, one on the first floor. But Miss Leedy was not a full high school teacher ns she also heard grammar school recitations. In the sapio building, now nearly a half century old, were crowded, as stated in a previous article, a speci men of every grade, from grammar to subprimary, into which the schools of that day were fantastically divided. So dilapidated had the old Lanc&s terlan then become that a mischief loving youth, by planting his feet firmly against the foot of his desk and j gently* agitating his lower limbs in a measured movement similar to the step of marching troops, could shake the whole building; and. the longer the movement was kept up the more violently would the floors heave and rock as in a mlnature earthquake, un til it seemed to those who were unfor tunate enough to be In the first floor rooms as if the whole building was about to be precipitated upon them. A year later when, as Mr. Foose's first assistant. I became the presiding genius of this room. It was no unusual [occurrence to have a wild-eyed urchin j suddenly appear at fhe door with the ■announcement, "Some one Is shaking the floor and teacher says will you please stop It?" I remember one demure and pen sive lad. who subsequently rose to high position at the Dauphin county bar, who was an expert at the game, the while his eyes were ftstened so Intently on his textbook in geometry that it would seem impossible that thoughts of reviltry had ever entered his cranium. But there were others. From time to time the wise and reverend fathers of the School Board would assemble at the building to In vestigate the phenomena and order braces and stays put In somewhere, but It never did much good. That old 1 Lanasterian flooring, with one live wire kid on the operating line, had | spirit rapplngs beaten to a standstill. There will be men in Harrlsburg on | the shady side of fifty that will smile ' out real loud when they read this be j lated tribute to their youthful achleve : ments. The Girls' High School of 1874 Sp much for the Boys' High School. The girls of the city taking a high school course were housed In a por | tion of the small building in West State street which was smaller then than now, for it had not then received the addition which was made to it a few years later. Tn the same small building were also schools of both the Intermediate and grammar grades. The girls of the high school occupied three rooms, none of them as large as the lone room appropriated to the boys. The three teachers of these rooms were Miss Maria E. Gill, the principal, and her assistants. Misses Eliza A. Bishop and Virginia F. Sam ple. There was also a recitation room, the teacher of which heard recitations from hoth the grammar and high schools. We find, then, that in 1874 the en tire high schol pupilage of Harrisburg was housed in four meagerly equipped rooms, with a faculty of six teachers, counting the two recitation room teachers, who gave but part of their time to high school work as one. You all know the two magnificent high school buildings your city has to-day with their many ample and admirably equipped rooms; and yet one of them Is so crowded that making provision for its pupils has become one of the burning school questions of the near future. In those two high schools forty-two teachers were em ployed last year as against the six recorded in the directory of forty years ago. ment loan. Were it not for the pres sure placed on our market by the Gould and the New, Haven Incidents we might by this time have seen con siderable recovery in our own securi ties. The most hopeful sign with us is the prospect of a bumper harvest. Nature has been In her most kindly mood. She has rubbed her Alladln lamp and lo! there has gushed forth a new fountain of wealtb. A few years ago James J. Hill was practically laughed at when be predicted a harvest of over $9,000,000,000 but he has not only-lived to see his estimate realized but ex ceeded by a few billion dollars, for every sign indicates that when the farmers count what wealth Mother Earth has brought them this year it will top Hill's figures by such an amount. The general bond market was inac tive. There was not as much return of July dividend and interest pay ments for new purchases as was an ticipated but in financial circles the in activity is ascribed to a desire on the part of investors to wait until the In terstate Commerce Commission hks rendered its freight decision and the present squalls in the stock market centering about two important rail way systems passes as it will. NEWSPAPERMEN AT HERSHEY Hershey, Pa., July IS.—On Monday the Lancaster Press Association vis ited the famous chocolate town.
