Marshal Glenn brought August Klass and Emil Baetz of lloboken to the Hackensack jail, committed by Justice Morgan of Rutherford, on a charge of grand larceny.
They were caught with a wagon load of trolley rails' taken at Stteaucus, near the White Line power house at 5 o'clock this morning. Sergent Schrieber arrested a well-dressed young man who said his home was in Englewood and that his name was Oppenheimer. He had endeavored to bunco a bicycle dealer out of a pistol by saying Cashier Terhune, of the Na tional bank, sent him for the weapon. Investigation after he left proved his story fictitious and just as he was boarding a train to leave the town he was nabbed. Justice Heath committed the slick youth to jail.

She is unharmed and will be raised by her own power, it Is thought. The Kulion was getting ready for her trip to by way of Long Island sound and the ocean.

26. 1901. George Bancroft Gale, M. Ruther ford. N.
J. Dear Doctor in response to your request, an examination was made of what Ib known as the Sylvan street school located in your borough. The object of the examination was to de termine the advisability of using what Is known as the kindergarten rooms lor school purposes. This de- I partment is conducted in three rooms in the school, which are located be low the first floor. On the street side the floor level of the rooms Is at least four feet below the Biirfaca, of the ground, but on account of the sloping nature of the ground the floor on the southerly side of the building la about upon the ground level.
In this room the number of pupils receiving Instruction Is at present 70. It is understood that prior to the rectlon of tho new school building at times 120 or 130 pupils were taught In these rooms. The ventilation of the rooms is effected by the opening of doors and windows. This method is unsatis-i factory, and every modern school building should be furnished wltliap-! pliances by which mechanically, fresh air may be Introduced aud foul air abstracted. The ceilings of the rooms referred to are about seven teet in height.
The floors are of wood laid upon cement. The air space and floor space In the rooms allows 21 feet of floor space per pu pil when 60 pupils are present, and 121 cubic feet of air space under similar Information obtained from the teachers shows that ut tinir3 In the spring of the year dampness is noticeable in the rooms, and that it is deposited upon the blackboards. No complaint whatever is made of dampness of floors. It should be laid down as a general law that no school rooms should be placed below the ground level. The room at present in use for the pupils is not adapted for such purposes.
If the rooms are to be used permanently certain changes should be made as follows: An arcaway should be placed around the rooms bo as to give opportunity for tlie circulation of air around the walls, and this areaway should have a depth at least a foot greater than the present floor level iu the rooms. In addition thereto, some system of ventilation should be Introduced, so that pure air may be furnished, and that pupils may not be exposed to the dangers arising from draughts. The number ot pupils should be, 01 course, so limited as to give each pupil the proper amount of floor and space. In regard to the relation of the local board of health to such matters, the method of procedure Is for the local board of health to apply td the Chancellor for an Injunction, but before doing this it is absolutely essential that the local board of health should have sufficient legal grounds for their action, liy this it Is implied that there should be some absolute proof which can be presented to the courts that tho conditions existing are such as to cause ill health. and tlie local board of health before taking action In any such matter should have the affidavits 'of physicians in relation to specific cases, so that when the case is tried tn the courts they are ablo to show that disease has actually occurred as a result of the conditions.
Where such proof cannot be obtained, the rela tion of the local board of health to the board of education should be merely advisory In nature, and the local board of health should put itself upon record, by resolution or otherwise, as disapproving of the use tho room for school purposes, and urging upon the board of education the necessity of providing improved facilities. Tho local board of health having thus placed itself upon record relieved of the responsibility for the existing conditions, and the responsibility Is then placed upon the members of tho board of educ ation. Knowing the progressive charac ter of tho citizens of Rutherford we not doubt that every effort will be made to improve present conditions, and the fact that a now and modern school building has been erected, shows that there Is allvely Interest educational matters. We trust that co-operation of the local board health with the board of educa tion, and with all tlioso who are Interested In educational matters In your borough, will result in tho se curing of Increased and Improved facilities for tho instruction of the younger children In the kindergarten department. Very respectfully, A.

II. The senate )ok up the Hay-I'nuncefote canal treaty iu executive session, and Senator Lodge made au explanation and argument fir the convention. Mr. I judge contended that the new treaty does away with all the features objected to in the treaty of the last congress and enumerated the particulars in which the revised agreement conforms to the action of the senate iu the last congress when the old treaty was before it. lie analyzed the new treaty from beginning to end.
showing that in (specific' terms it abrogates the CUtyton-Uulwer treaty of 1 which, he said, had stood constantly in the way of i lie construction of an isthmian csmal. Senator Lodge also called attention to the omission in paragraph 1. article of the words "in time of war as in time of peace." He said that in the old treaty the paragraph rend, "The canal tili-ill be free nud open in time of war as in lime of peace to the vessels of commerce and of war of all nations on terms of entire equality," etc. 1 le urged that the omission of this phrase bad the effect practically of leaving the United States to do with the canal in time of war according to its owu good pleasure. He ulso referred to the fact that rule 7 in the treaty of the powers regulating the control of the Suez canal, which had been embodied in the origi nal Hay-I'auneefote treaty, had been omitted in the revised draft.
lie quot ed this rule, which provided that "no formications shall be erected commanding the canal or the waters adja-ci ut." etc. Mil criii I C'oiiecNNiiili. Tli is. lie said, was a materi.il concession to the United States and was sufficient to 111 'i't the objections maile against that agreement that the United States would have no power to protect its properly. The fact that the invitation contained in the old treaty to various powers to give their adherence to the agreement had been eliminated from the new convention, he said, was another compliance with the action of the senate on the original treaty.
These concessions, Mr. Lodge urged, were ample, find be contended that they were of such nature as to make the new treaty acceptable to all American citizens win) wanted to see a canal constructed. Practically, lie said, Great Rritain had agreed to turn the entire management of the canal over to the United States not only in time of peace, but in tiuie or war. and no one could doubt that in case of hostilities the United Slates would be tit liberty to conslriie the omission of the clause in rule 1 as having this effect.
