School Director Barrington, Chairman of the board of Education; Director Walter and Secretary Welsh were before the Grand Jury and answered inquiries regarding the school finances. Their testimony was not. how-evtr, entirely satisfactory, for which reason the examination was continued until the next session.

Crand Jurors have cfaimed that the school fund bas been overdrawn without reason and In violation of law to such an extent that running expenses of the department up to January 1, 1S99, cannot be met out of the appropriation as limited by the One-Twelfth Act for six months. This condition is regarded by the Grand Jurors as indicative of malfeasance in office, and they held that the bondsmen of the School Directors responsible for it are liable in the amount overdrawn. President Barrington state! to the Grand Jury that be had within id numerous bills, among thorn being a demand for payment for eighty typewriters, which were not needed and had not been ordered with authority of the board, he returned the bilis to a clerk In the office, and Chairman Gallagher of tho Finance Coinn ittee was angry because they were not signed and passed to him. Director Waller proved to his own satisfaction that the expenditures were legal, and the Secretary presented a statement of the amount of bills remaining unpaid, and the condition of tho school fund. Election matters were freely discussed, and the Grand Jury determined to adopt res ter election, and I have not yet recovered from tbe fatigue of the campaign.
