held on Juno IBtli Instead of the 17th.
Tho teachers of tho second grade grammar
school sent In a communication requesting
the Board to reconsider the matter of lidd
ing a grammar school commencement for the
reasons first, that it puts the. parents of
pupils to needless expeme; second. It dis
turbs the A class for nearly the last month of
school; third, it draws the rainfls of the
pupils away from their lessons and makes
study an object of show, rather than of
menial development; fourth, the time used
by the teachers iu preparing pupils for com
mencement can be better used in teaching;
II f tli, the course of education is not com
pleted until tho studies in tho High school
huve been mastered and pupils should not he
Uraduated pntil they have completed the
entire course.
Appended to tho communication wns a
written endorsement of the suggestion by
Superintendent Cooper and also a recom
mendation by the Ulgli school committee
that tho suggestiun&be compiled with. Tho

the committee to attend to tlio repairs

The following report on the exonerations
for 1800 wss presented and adopted :
Your committee on exonerations held six
different meetings and examined the lists
prepared by Mr. Scanlan for exoneration.
We found considerable diujeulty In trying to
locate tlio persons who have not paid their

are not living iu the same pbtces or wards as
thoy were when assessed, consequently they
could not be found. The committco decided
Jo recommend the following named persons
for exoneration from Hrsonal tax : Henry
Miller, Stephen Tregembo, Andrew Doylo,
and W. P. Seward and George Taylor, Mary
Uenulc, Cuthoriue Herman and William
Leach from property tax. With regard to
the entire list of exonerations the committee
respectfully states that its work bus been
thorough, nnd an honest effort mado to re
duce the amount, but it has been Impossible
for them to do so on acoout of tho circum

reasons wo rofor it to you in Its cntiiety and

locate tbe parties and it was suggested that
tho duplicate bo closed. Mr. Hanna movexl
tlmt tho duplicate be declared settled aud the
solicitor instructed to release tho bondsmen
for that year. Mr. Ogden objected, stating
that it was improper to go over a settlement
mado four years ago aud that the only means
of final settlement was to have the collector
pay the balance, or let the Board caueel the
debt. Mr. Hanna said that the balance was
really only a part of a form. It had lieeu
allowed to remain charged in order to keep
the warrant of the collector for 1885 good.

FELL FROM A SWING.

Injuries.
Lawrence Kyan, an estimable yonng man
23( years of age residing at Brownsville, was
probably fatally injured nt that place lost
evcuing by falling from a pole swing. Kyan
was standing on the seat. He wore now shoes
and when tho swing was high in tho air
his footing slipped and caused his
hold on the side -poles to break. Kyan
fell to tbe ground, on his right side.
His head struck a stone and bis face was
badly out and bruised. The victim was
picked up unconscious and has remained In
that state. Dr. J. C BIddle, of the Miners'
Hospital, aud Drs. S. G. Hamilton, S. C
Spalding and 1. F. Burke, of town, were in
consultation on tho case at noon to-day. A
fracture of tbo skull was found at the base
and it has caused completo paralysis of tho
brain nnd the entire right half of the body.
Tho paralysis has also caused complete paraly
sis of t;o optip norves, produeiug destruction
of sight. The condition of the victim is such
that it was decided not to attempt an opera
tion on the skull. It is doubtful thnt bo will
survive until to-morrow. Tho young man
was n student at Wood's Business College and
a member of tho Annunciation Literary

ARBITRATION
DEFEATED.

Wilh England.
SEYBRAL SENATORS HOT YOTIHG.
The Defeat of tbe Treaty, Says Senator
Davis, Was Dae to (treat Britain
Attitude In European Politics
and Her Designs on the
Transvaal.
"Washington, May 6. The senate
yesterday, by a vote of 43 to 26, refuted
to ratify the general arbitration treaty
between the United States and Great
Britain negotiated by Secretary Olnoy
and Sir Julian Pauncefote. The- rules
of the senate require a majority of two
thirds for the ratification of treaties.
Hence four more affirmative votes
would have been required to secure a
favorable result. The vote In detail
was as follows:
Teas Allison, Bacon, Burrows, CafTery,
Clay, Cullom, Davis, Deboe, Fairbanks,
Faulkner, Foraker, Frye, Galllnger, Gear,
Gray. Hale, Hanna, Hawley. Hoar, Lind
say, Lodge, McBride, McKnerery, JIcMll

rose, Pettigrew, Pettus, Quay, Rawlins.
Iloach, .Stioup, Stewart, White.
A total of G9 votes wan coat, leaving
10 senators who did not respond. The
pairs so far as obtainable were as
follows, two ailmmtlve senators being
paired with one negative serfttlor In
most Instances: Chandler nnd Clark,
for, with Teller agalnfrt; Tillman and
Turner, for, with Chilton against;
ewell and Earle, for, with Mantell
against Senator George was paired
tor the treaty and
Senator Berry 1
against It. Pairs were not announced
for Aldrich, Cannon, Elkins, Gorman,
Murphy, Wolcott, Kenny and Allen.
The vote was preceded by a short
but spirited debate, introduced by
Senator Mills, of Texas, who made a
strong appeal to the senate against
ratifying- the agreement. He asserted
that as amended the document was
most objectionable, not to say contra
dictory In terms. He pointed out es
pecially the provisions for the settle
ment of controversies In regard to ter
ritorial claims, and asserted that
whereas the amendment adopted by the
senate to the first article ot the treaty
declared against their lnoluslon, the
Bixth and eighth articles made pro
Vision for them. He held that as long
OH these articles remained unchanged
Bngland Justly could claim that ques
tions ot territorial rights were still in
cluded within the scope of the treaty.
Under such circumstances, he asked,
what was to prevent Knglahd from
purchasing the island of Cuba or any
other American territory, and In case
of objection ou the part of the United
States Insisting upon the reference of
dispute to arbitration? He spoke of the
conduct of England in connection with
the Graeco-Turklsh war, and implored
the senate to protect the United States
against the proposed alliance.
The speech made a visible Impres
sion, and the opinion was general that
the treaty should be amended so as to
remedy the Inconsistency explained.
Senator Tillman asked that time be
given for such amendment. Owing.
however, to the fact that the senate
was under agreement to vote at 4
o'clock there could be no postpone
ment except by unanimous consent.
Senator Carter, who from the first
has been one of the most active and
effective opponents ot the treaty, made
a very pungent speech In opposition.
He said there could be no doubt of the
partiality of the government and the
people of the United States toward the
settlement of disputes by arbitration,
and that for tills reason there never
would be any difficulty In securing an
agreement for arbitration for any spe-
citio dispute witu any nation, but it
was not necessary for our people to
tie themselves In an agreement of un
certain scope and purport, especially
with a country which had shown Itself
so out of sympathy with the "feelings
of the people of the United States In
the position Bngland had taken In Eu
ropean affairs. Mr. Carter advised the
senate to let well enough alone.
Senator Hoar replied briefly, going
over the general argument In favor of
the treaty, and contending especially
that the objection of Inconsistency In
regard to territorial claims was not
well founded.
The remainder of the debate was ot
a running character. Senators "White
and Pettlgrew Interjected questions
tending to show continued opposition.
Senator White remarked that the docu
ment was full of Illogical propositions,
and said furthermore that its syntax
would have to be Improved before it
Would be thoroughly acceptable.
The covert opposition to ratification
was made very manifest after the vote
was announced. Borne senators who
were recorded among the yeas spoke
quite openly of objectionable features,
confessing that, they had cast their
votes In the affirmative In deference to
public opinion. Among those who
waited In the senate corridors to re
stive the news was Mr. Michael Davltt,
who appeared much pleased at the re
sult. Senator Davis, chairman ot the com
mittee on foreign relations, declined to
express an opinion for publication, but
talked freely with his friends. To
them he attributed the defeat to the
feeling of dissatisfaction at England's
course in the struggle of tbe Greeks
and In the Armenian massacres, and
with tho "evident" designs ot Great
Britain upon the Transvaal.
