The rules committee will meet to-morrow night and shape up, as far as possible, the new rules to govern the County Democracy.

Educators Say That Growth of the City Demjnds Enlarged Facilities, They Will Soon be an Absolute Ne cessity, Declares Superintendent Brooks, In the opinion of persons actively Inter estcd In the educational welfare of Phila delphla the facilities alTorded by the present high schools of the city are msiimcient to adequately meet the need for this kind of schooling.

As expressed try several promi nent educators to a reporter of The Phil adelphia Times yesterday, this view founded upon the fact that the Girls' High School Is now crowded beyond its efficient capacity. Of the new Hoys' High School it was said that, while there was still room for a slight Increase in attendance, this would soon prove too little to accommodate the additional number of pupils which the crowth of the city would bring to the school. In view of these facts the estab lishlng of high schools iu several parts of the city at a distance from Its centre, according to a system of territorial high schools, advocated some yenrp ago by mem bers of the Hoard of Education, has again become a mutter of Interest to local educators. The following expressions of opin ion on this subject were obtained yesterday by a reporter of The Philadklphia Times: Superintendent of Public Schools Edward Brooks said: "Our high school pupils are unquestionable sn eioselv crovHlod that it will be the very near future to pro vide new accommodations for them, which will necessitate the enlargement of the present school buildings or the erection (t new ones in various paiiw oi iue -uy, Perhaps the chief reason for the estab lisbnient of high schools in different quar ters of the city Is, of course, that It will give much needed accommodation to pupils who now have long distances to travel to reach the present high schools, which are all located near tne centre oi tne cuy. A CONVENIENCE TO THOUSANDS.

"The establishment of territorial high schools will not only prove a convenience to thousands, but will, In fact, In the very near future prove to ue an absolute neces sity. The present high school buildings are fully as large as they should be and the schools are as large in point if numbers In attendance as can well be managed under one school administration. Tlie (iirls High Schools are already overcrowded and In spite of the size of the new building It will not be long before tlie Boys1 High School will be in a similar condition. It has room for only a few more. "Moreover It Is true that the total attend ance of the high schools Is less than It would be were the opportunities for higher education In Philadelphia increased by making the schools more accessible to the different parts of the city.

Many boys and girls are now kept out of the more advanced schools for no other reason than because It Is so hard to reach them. The establishment of new high schools at points more easily reached by all alike would greatly stimulate the demand for higher education. There should be no quibbling over tlie outlay. There is hardly any possibility of too great an expenditure for the education of citizens of a great municipality like Philadelphia." TOO LAHOE FOR ONE SCHOOL. William Dick, assistant secretary of the Board of Education, said: "Our statistics show that the Increase in the attendance at the high schools Is steadily increasing.1 It Is apparent thnt the city of Philadelphia Is now too large for one Central High School for girls and one for boys.

The aiiiountl appropriated for the new Hoys' High School, however, makes it Improbable that Ii request to Councils for additional boys' high schools at this time would meet with a popular reception. In the ease of girls! high schools a request for nwre appropriations would appear justified by the number of pupils In attendance there. When a school has an attendance of more than 1,000 It is as much as should be under one person's supervision." William Vare, Recorder of Deeds-elect, last year secured the passage by Councils of an urdinaoe for the appropriation of for the purchase of a site for a new manual training school to be located smith of Catharine street. An ordinance. Introduced by him, is now pending In Councils, being iu the bauds of the committee on tx'hools, for the appropriation of $200,000 to lie applied to flic purchase of a site for and the erection (if such a school.

EC 0 I It EOT VARE FAVORABLE. Mr. Vare said: "The building of the school which I would like to have erected would be In line with the plan of having schools for higher education in the more distant parts of the city. The need for It. I think, is to be seen in that down town Is a growing section.

Thou-1 sands of new homes have gonl' up there In the last few years. "Then, too, the population 111 this neighborhood Is largely composed Of mechanics who would value such training as would be given in this school. The present manual training schools are overcrowded. I see no good and sulticieut reason, therefore, why the young people of the southern part of l'hlladelplila should go to the northeastern part to an overcrowded school for their education." WILLED FORTUNE TO HER SON An estate valued nt $44,000 Is disposed of by the will of Mrs. Hallle J.

Magulre, of 700 Callowhlll street, a aloonkeeier, charged with intimidating voters, unlawfully entering election compartments: and conspiracy.

Frank rjcott, the minority inspector, and Ills Kmll Schwarz, who appeared In court In rtnswer to the subpoena, were held In $200 bail each to answer the charge of making a fraudulent return. The court, an-nouueed that so far as the evidence showed the returns were tilled up according to the facts, but thnt the officers had violated tlie law in signing the blank return slieets De-fore the polls closed and before the ballots were counted. PRISON" US SECURE BONDSMEN. Albert Fink, 4''7 Darieu street, the judge of election in the division, and Jerome Huck. North Eighth street, majority inspector in that division, were held under $7M bail for signing the returns before the proper time and for neglect of duty in disregarding challenges and for wilful fraud.

Rudolph Iiuedingcr, SOT Callowhlll street, was required to enter $1,000 bail to answer the charges of Intimidating voters.

Wurstcr, 817 A'iue street, grocer, entered security for Grady and Fink, and George Idleinnii, 4.10 North Third street, optician, entered security for Schwarz and Scott.

Mr. Clement exhibited a portion of 1 torn ballot of the 8th division of the lid ward, which, he said, he was prepared to prove had been found In rort nslihigtoii lie said the law required that all unused ballots should be returned by the election officers, and asked the Court to take cog nizance of this apparent violation. Court did not consider the torn ballot sutti-cient evidence to warrant an action being taken. THREATENED VOTERS. Deputy Sheriff William I.ecdoni.

who had been delegated to serve the subpoenas on the election officers of the 2d and ltd divisions of the l'Mh ward, reported to the Court that he called at the house of Thomas J. Mitchell, the judge of the 2d division, and was told that he hnd left the city the day after the election. At the house of Leo Weintz, the majority Inspector, he said it was stated that Weintz had gone to see his sick sister. The other, election officers of the division were In eolirt. They said Mitchell had ignored challenges and accepted the votes of non-residents and repealers and allowed toi intimidate the other otticers audi voters and enter the compartments and assist In the marking of ballots, against the protests of watchers anil the voters.

Frank J. llngden, the Union watcher, testified that Magulre marked nearly all the ballots cast and, with Mitchell, repeatedly threatened any one who dared make an objection. It was testified, that iu the 3d division Rudolph Iiuedingcr had behaved in the same manner Magulre had in the 2d division. The Court will sit this morning for the purpose of granting a hearing to the men for whom warrants were issued. SIXTY-EIGHT WARRANTS OUT Allied Organizations Begin Crusade Against Election Officers.

of wo STOKES SCHOOL LAW UNCONSTITUTIONAL Educational Machinery of New Jersey Disarranged by the Supreme Court's Decision. Special to The Philadelphia Times. TRENTON, November 35. The Stokes school law of 1IMKJ was declared unconstitutional to-day by the unanimous vote of the Court of Errors and Appeals. This upsets the school machinery of the State, except in Jersey City, where the law was not accepted and where steps were taken to test the act.

it Is probable many municipalities will continue to operate schools under the Stokes plan until the next Legislature takes action. It is their privilege, however, to go hack to their former scheme, it being revived by the decision. The opinion was rendered by Chief Justice Depue. who said the law was vicious, lie-cause it undertook to classify municipalities having wards as distinct from those not so divided. The decision occasioned a surprise, as great care had been exercised in drafting the law, and Attorney General Grey, It is said, had declared it to be constitutional in every particular.

The hill was drafted by a special commission comprising E. C. Stokes, of Cumberland; Assistant State Superintendent of Public Instruction Hetts, and St. John McCntcheon, of the State Educational Hoard. Three years were spent in preparing the act, during which time eminent counsel aided the commission.

Clerk in Chancery Stokes, who fathered the act. to-night said that prompt steps would be taken to have the incoming Legislature pass a bill remedying the flaws in the law and meeting the objections of the Court. Stokes further stated that the action of the Court will not affect the law passed last winter whereby $.800,000 was appropriated from the State funds for distribution among the local school districts. Tlie decision of the lower court in the ease of Charles C. Keen against, the Maple Shade and Land Improvement Company was reversed, and a decree ordered in favor of the plaintiff against the directors of the corporation as individuals for the sum of $200 and costs.

This corporation has been dissolved after a distribution of assets among all the stockholders except Keen. The widely-known Dexter will case was decided In favor of Editor John J. Streeter, of Vineland, who will secure the estate involved. The contestants were Marv J. ltamsdell et al.

The decision to-day has the effect that Sparks must now tile an answer to tlie bill iu the Court of Chancery, where the case will be settled on Its merits. Thewrit of enror taken out iu the ease of the State vs. Peter Groonwitld to the Indictment of the treasurer of the former town of Stockton, Camden county, was dismissed by a unanimous vote of' the Court on the ground that the case disclosed no flnnl judgment.

The case of Receiver Thomas French of the cild Mlllville Insurance Company, against Avalina Iligglns was affirmed. In the divorce case of Helen A. Kcmpson against St. George Kempsnn, of Perth Ambny, a reargument wns ordered to take place at the term of Court opening next week.

Tills Is an important proposition, nnd Its result will determine The sort of service necessary hereafter to be had on defendants In this class of cases.

Henry C. Lea, owner of the building, testi fied that it was erected In 1S77, and that It was rented as a store and not for manu facturing purposes. According to Sir. Lea the insurance rates were increased on the building during the last few years. Mr.

Lea was asked by the foreman of the jury 1f he had ever been notified that the building was very unsafe In case of fire, and he replied that he had never received any such Information. He also said that he wanted to plnce another stairway in the building, but the objected. The testimony of Oliver Earnshaw, employed as chief engineer by Mr. Lea, suggested a probable cause of the lire. He said that on the day before the fire he visited the building nnd saw some excelsior lying on the floor, but not near the shafts of either the passenger or freight elevators.

Karnshaw Rlso testified that on the same day he saw William llruy, the engineer, who lost his life in the fire, put a piece of oily waste over tlie gas jet, and, after lighting his pipe, throw 1t upon the floor. The waste was blazing, and Earnshaw stamped it out, at the time saying to Bray: "If there 's not a fire In this building some day It will be a wonder. I wish you would not do that." Earnshaw farther said that he often remonstrated with Hray about leaving oily waste about the basement floor and near the elevator pumps. Itray was a careful man In many respects, according to Earnshaw, and especially so with the tires. Herbert Wllmenling, secretary of the Hoard of Fire I nderwrlters, said that the building was not considered fire-proof and the wood encased elevator used iu the building wis thought to be the worst kind in ease of fire.

Mr. Wiiinerillng railed the attention of the jury to certain laws which the Fire Underwriters' Association thought should be enacted to prevent tires of this kind. A verdict will be rendered by the Jury to-day.
