SCHOOL APPROPRIATION CUT.
Oovernor StonoSnyH Tlinno Appropri

Harrlsburg, May 15. Governor
Stone has mado public hla action on
tho general appropriation Dill, which
provides for the ordinary expenses of
tho various branches of tho stato gov
ernment, tno Interest on the public
debt and for the support of tho pub
lic schools for the two fiscal years be
ginning June 1, 1899. He has made
a cut of 11,000,000 In the school od-
proprlatlon and reduced several other
Items whereby he saves In the aggre
gats $1,600,000, which will be applied
to reducing the floating debt of tho
commonwealth.
The governor has filed In tho offlrn
of the secretary of tho commonwealth
a statement giving his reasons for dis
approving certain Items in tho bill and
approving parts of certain other Items.
e recites the history of tho steady
increase that has been mado In th
school appropriation slnco the adoption
of the constitution of 1874. which re
quires that not less than $1,000,000 shall
uo appropriated annually for the sup
port of the common schools. He shows
that in 189S, when the fund was In
creased "from $5,000,000 to $5,600,000,
the additional $500,000 was Intended
to be used to enforce tho iron ttTf
book law.
Tho net annual revenues of the com-
monweaun are about $11,000,000, of
which thero is paid out of tho Btato
treasury annually more than $6,000,000
In support of the cause of education.
Governor Stone says tho magnificent
annronrlation to thft nubile arhnpla has
financially embarrassed tno state; una
that If the revenues would Justify It he
would cheerfully allow the appropria
tion to remain at $11,000,000. He claims
It Is absolutely necessary to rcduco
tho appropriation, and he Is confident
the people will justify him In making
a reduction of $500,000 annually in
order that the appropriations made by
prior legislatures may be paid.

others came by carriages and bicycles,
and hundreds came on foot. Relic

people did not hesitate to take away
with them pieces of wood thoroughly
saturated with human blood. Every
thing in the neighborhood of the wreck
Is bespattered with blood, and tho sight
was a gruesome one.
Tho question as to who Is responsible
for the catastrophe Is still being dis
cussed here. That some one blundered
Is genornlly admitted by railroad men.
Who It was that blundered, however,
no one seems to positively know, and
opinions on this point differ widely.
The Reading officials here yesterday
took the statements of the trainmen
who were concerned In the affair, and
they wero sent to the general offices of
