the District Reform Schoor submitted to the Commissioners today a re- port of the operations or the school for tht endrd June 30 The report gives de information as to the inmates of tli institution the amounts received from thb sale of surplus farm products and various industries on at the school for the instruction boys the dispo- sition of these sums an Jienjized state- ment of the receipts and payments of the treasurer of the school aTrlnv ntory of all personal property belonging institcr tion and a statement of the number of em I ployes and the compensation of each The average number ofwboysV according to tire report ic the during the year was 187 This numaer if conslderanly smaller than that of previous years tn number in 1839 being 224 jn 189S 23Cr and in 1897 223 Figures aregiven to show that in the eleven years from 1887 to 1S9S the average number of boys In creased 1D7 to 236 falling off in the I to 224 and then to 197 i reasons are given for thIs among which is mentioned the multiplica- tion of agencies for the care of boys The Board of Childrens Guardians Intended primarily for charitable work obtains through the courts the control of many boys who should be sent to the Reform School the reasons for their commitment being bUsed upon nets committed 6r a gen- eral condition of behavior callingj for ref- ormation rather than support the pbject of the school being refor- mation arj supplemental carrying out of control wcere the a e no longer able to exercise it frequent- ly commit boys to jail or the workhouse because the parents or relatives in charge thir serving a short term of these places to what a much longer one in the Reform School The school has at present a capacity for 250 boys and if would seem as a mere ques of economy to he much wiser to utiU it to the limit of Its capacity than to iiistrfoute toys to farms and other private places where the boys themselves get lit- tle or no instruction the persons to whom they aa committed getting not only their services but compensation making an ad ditional expense to be paid from the pub- lic treasury During the year covered by the report the necessary repairs for the proper care and preservation of the buildings and per sonal property belonging to the school have ben made including those to the workshops family buildings barns sta bles fencing sewers roadway steam plant etc in all of which the boys have been employed wherever practicable Spe- cial mention may be made of the repairs to the boiler house and coal vaults which were thoroughly overhauled walls repair- ed and the vaults cement lined so as to exclude dampness The green houseu were in great measure rebuilt and all are now in excellent condition The old bathing pools one of which was located In each family building have been replaced by shower baths thus avoiding the necessity for a number of boys bathing in the same water a measure conducive to health and cleanliness The character of the work fa the school- room the manual training school j and in struction given In the various shops as well as in outdoor work has been perhaps better usual i At session Congress passed an act raising the age fffr admission tote school from sixteen to under seventeen years and gave the Trustees au- thority to make regulations as should be necessary to give parole in- stead of absolute discharges thus giving the school the right to reclaim its boys who after being discharged on parole into vicious ways and who if absolute- ly discharged could not be reclaimed be- cause of being over This legislation ought to have influence with the in doing away with the commitment to the and workhouse where they ate in contact with criminals and causing commitment to the Reform School to take their place The health of the school has been excellent and the general condition of the entire property is good The Commissioners have had under con- sideration the changing of the drinking fountains in some of the public schools To this end James Nolan Sons recently sun mitted a sample drinking fountain of im- perial porcelain which they think should replace the enameled fountains speci- fied in the contracts The con tractors claim for the porcelain fountain that is Is in every way superior to the fountains now in use acd they propose to furnish the new ones at the same price as- thft iron fountains The proposed fountain was inspected a few days ago by the Inspector of Plumbing who reports that the porcelain drinking fountain proposed to be oaDstltuted for the iron one is a most admirable fixture and its sanitary qualities and durability as well as its appearance inake it much su- perior to the fixture specified With respect- to the character of the installation I think certain changes should be made The back of the fixture Is winding and should be made flat by on a bed such as is used for that purpose It can then be placed snugly against the wainscoting which is not now possible The fixture at present is not properly secured to the wall It is supported on brackets and held in place on them only by the water supply connections One can readily be moved an inch or more from the wall The brasswork of the outlet is excellent and well suited to the purpose except that I think the small strainers should be lowered to the depth specified one and a half inches below the flanges In view of the superior quality of this material and the generally good features- of the fixture it may be thought desirable to allow some of the defects in setting which I have noted above to remain un corrected but I cannot so recommend- It should be stated in this record that this porcelain drinking fountain is de signed substantially aToTrg lines suggested- by this office in frequent conversations with Messrs Powell and Madden in which the superior sanitary features of such a type of apparatus were clearly recognized These applicants should be requested to state whether it is their intention to malt a substitution of similar fixtures if ap- proved for the fountains specified in the Garnet and Gales schools If this is found to be the case it should be an absolute condition that such fixtures be provided with ground backs Capt D D Gaillard Assistant to the Engineer transmitting the report of Plumbing took occasion to say that inasmuch as fixture Installed in the Grant school in every way superior to the fixture specified he would recommend it be accepted provided that it is secured to the wall by a screw or halt extending from one of the brackets through a hole drilled into the fixture itself If similar fixtures are to be for the drinking fountain fied in the Garnet and Gales schools the contractors should be notified that ilrtlie backs are winding they should be made fiat by grinding previous to Installation Mrs Robert re cently wrote to the Commissioners corn a second time the dangerous condition of the sidewalk and roadway dn Thirteenth Street

ELECTBICAX WORKERS STSHCE l Massager Graham Gives the Com panys of the Case The conditions of the strike declared f against the National Electrical Supply Company by the local union of electrical workers remains practically unchanged today No further conference has been held by the two parties A statement has been issued by the Na Electrical Supply Company giving of the disagreement from its i point of view E C Graham manager said this morning that of the eighteen men who had gone out fifteen had been re- placed but that the receipts of new busi- ness since the inauguration of the trou- ble provided work for an additional force Referring to the statement issued by the company he said j In February 1S99 an amicable agree ment with the electrical workers was reached by which we agreed to pay 3 a day on a basis of eight hours We agreed- to employ no journeymen wiremen other than members of the union Helpers were not required to be members of the union but not more than three helpers to five Journeymen were to be allowed to work These conditions have been faithfully car j ned out by this company The facts of the disagreement with the workers are these We had a contract j at Fort Washington Md upon which work was called for immediately This is conceded by other trades unions to be without the jurisdiction of local labor or- ganizations Circumstances wore such that we were unable to send any of our journeymen owing to other work from which they could not be spared The work was therefore started by one of our skilled helpers Our Intention was to I him with a journeyman at the ear- liest opportune moment This was done with no motive to injure union labor and with no benefit to ourselves A committee from the workers advised j us that the contract was considered with in their jurisdiction and demanded that the Job be placed under a union msn i We agreed to this stating that we so pro posed to do when the first capable man would be available in about three days The committee next demanded that we j remove the helper who was then at the work We assented to agreed that he should be laid off until the arrival of the journeyman The commit 1 tee then insisted that this helpdr should be removed from the job at Fort We proposed to the com mittes a that the arbitration We received the icply that I upon the unions demands being complied j with It would consent to arbitrate This we in turn refused We lave conceded the union every possible demand We have been tsorsnpell ed to employ nonunion men in selfde fence The men who are employed by ua will be retained to position where We are paying Skilled workmen the rate as to the union journeymen New conditions must obtain when the union men desire to xeturn to work WANT WILL CONSTRUED SuJ Over the Estate of the

Cecil Clay President of the Board of
Trustees of the District Reform Schoorsubmitted to the Commissioners today a re-
port of the operations or the school for thtendrd June 30 The report gives deinformation as to the inmates oftli
institution the amounts received from thbsale of surplus farm products andvarious industries on at the schoolfor the instruction boys the dispo-
sition of these sums an Jienjized state-ment of the receipts and payments of thetreasurer of the school aTrlnv ntory of allpersonal property belonging institcrtion and a statement of the number of em I
ployes and the compensation of eachThe average number ofwboysV according
to tire report ic the during theyear was 187 This numaer if conslderanlysmaller than that of previous years tnnumber in 1839 being 224 jn 189S 23Crand in 1897 223 Figures aregiven toshow that in the eleven years from 1887to 1S9S the average number of boys Increased 1D7 to 236 falling off in the
I to 224 and then to 197i reasons are given for thIs
among which is mentioned the multiplica-tion of agencies for the care of boys TheBoard of Childrens Guardians Intendedprimarily for charitable work obtainsthrough the courts the control of manyboys who should be sent to the ReformSchool the reasons for their commitmentbeing bUsed upon nets committed 6r a gen-eral condition of behavior callingj for ref-ormation rather than supportthe pbject of the school being refor-mation arj supplemental carrying out ofcontrol wcere the a e no longerable to exercise it frequent-ly commit boys to jail or the workhousebecause the parents or relatives in charge
thir serving a short termof these places to what a muchlonger one in the Reform School Theschool has at present a capacity for 250boys and if would seem as a mere ques
of economy to he much wiser to utiUit to the limit of Its capacity than to
iiistrfoute toys to farms and other privateplaces where the boys themselves get lit-tle or no instruction the persons to whomthey aa committed getting not only theirservices but compensation making an additional expense to be paid from the pub-
lic treasuryDuring the year covered by the report
the necessary repairs for the proper careand preservation of the buildings and personal property belonging to the schoolhave ben made including those to theworkshops family buildings barns stables fencing sewers roadway steamplant etc in all of which the boys havebeen employed wherever practicable Spe-
cial mention may be made of the repairsto the boiler house and coal vaults whichwere thoroughly overhauled walls repair-ed and the vaults cement lined so as toexclude dampness The green houseu werein great measure rebuilt and all are nowin excellent condition The old bathingpools one of which was located In eachfamily building have been replaced byshower baths thus avoiding the necessityfor a number of boys bathing in the samewater a measure conducive to health andcleanliness
The character of the work fa the school-room the manual training school j and instruction given In the various shops aswell as in outdoor work has been perhapsbetter usual i
At session Congress passed anact raising the age fffr admission toteschool from sixteen to under seventeenyears and gave the Trustees au-
thority to make regulationsas should be necessary to give parole in-
stead of absolute discharges thus givingthe school the right to reclaim its boyswho after being discharged on parole
into vicious ways and who if absolute-ly discharged could not be reclaimed be-
cause of being over This legislationought to have influence with the indoing away with the commitmentto the and workhouse where they ate
in contact with criminals andcausing commitment to the Reform Schoolto take their place The health of theschool has been excellent and the generalcondition of the entire property is good
The Commissioners have had under con-sideration the changing of the drinkingfountains in some of the public schools Tothis end James Nolan Sons recently sunmitted a sample drinking fountain of im-
perial porcelain which they think shouldreplace the enameled fountains speci-fied in the contracts The contractors claim for the porcelain fountainthat is Is in every way superior to thefountains now in use acd they propose tofurnish the new ones at the same price as-
thft iron fountainsThe proposed fountain was inspected a
few days ago by the Inspector of Plumbingwho reports that the porcelain drinkingfountain proposed to be oaDstltuted for theiron one is a most admirable fixture andits sanitary qualities and durability aswell as its appearance inake it much su-
perior to the fixture specified With respect-to the character of the installation I thinkcertain changes should be madeThe back of the fixture Is windingand should be made flat by on abed such as is used for that purpose Itcan then be placed snugly against thewainscoting which is not now possible
The fixture at present is not properlysecured to the wall It is supported onbrackets and held in place on them onlyby the water supply connections One canreadily be moved an inch or more fromthe wall The brasswork of the outlet isexcellent and well suited to the purposeexcept that I think the small strainersshould be lowered to the depth specifiedone and a half inches below the flanges
In view of the superior quality of thismaterial and the generally good features-of the fixture it may be thought desirableto allow some of the defects in settingwhich I have noted above to remain uncorrected but I cannot so recommend-
It should be stated in this record thatthis porcelain drinking fountain is designed substantially aToTrg lines suggested-by this office in frequent conversationswith Messrs Powell and Madden in whichthe superior sanitary features of such atype of apparatus were clearly recognizedThese applicants should be requested tostate whether it is their intention to malta substitution of similar fixtures if ap-proved for the fountains specified in theGarnet and Gales schools If this is foundto be the case it should be an absolutecondition that such fixtures be providedwith ground backs
Capt D D Gaillard Assistant to theEngineer transmittingthe report of Plumbingtook occasion to say that inasmuch as
fixture Installed in the Grant schoolin every way superior to the fixture
specified he would recommend itbe accepted provided that it issecured to the wall by a screw or haltextending from one of the bracketsthrough a hole drilled into the fixtureitself If similar fixtures are to be
for the drinking fountainfied in the Garnet and Gales schools thecontractors should be notified that ilrtliebacks are winding they should be madefiat by grinding previous to Installation

I have examined the paint complained-of and find that the drainage from thewriters property has washed in gulliesthe sidewalk and parking space which hasbeen left above the grade of the roadwayfor the purpose of affording an entranceto the property The condition of theroadway is good and I cannot see thatthere is any remedy for the condition ofthe sidewalk but to cut it down to thegrade of the roadway fV era these gullies filled the materialplaced would be wash eil away bythe that the complainarit be informed that this office seesno way to relieve the situation at thistime except to shave the sidewalk cutdown the complainant to pay onehalfthe cost
This recommendation has been approved j

ELECTBICAX WORKERS STSHCE l
Massager Graham Gives the Companys of the Case
The conditions of the strike declared f
against the National Electrical SupplyCompany by the local union of electricalworkers remains practically unchangedtoday No further conference has beenheld by the two parties
A statement has been issued by the NaElectrical Supply Company giving
of the disagreement from its ipoint of view E C Graham managersaid this morning that of the eighteen menwho had gone out fifteen had been re-placed but that the receipts of new busi-ness since the inauguration of the trou-ble provided work for an additional forceReferring to the statement issued by thecompany he said j
In February 1S99 an amicable agreement with the electrical workers wasreached by which we agreed to pay 3 aday on a basis of eight hours We agreed-to employ no journeymen wiremen otherthan members of the union Helpers werenot required to be members of the unionbut not more than three helpers to fiveJourneymen were to be allowed to workThese conditions have been faithfully car j
ned out by this companyThe facts of the disagreement with the
workers are these We had a contract j
at Fort Washington Md upon whichwork was called for immediately This isconceded by other trades unions to bewithout the jurisdiction of local labor or-ganizations Circumstances wore suchthat we were unable to send any of ourjourneymen owing to other work fromwhich they could not be spared Thework was therefore started by one of ourskilled helpers Our Intention was to I
him with a journeyman at the ear-liest opportune moment This was donewith no motive to injure union labor andwith no benefit to ourselves
A committee from the workers advised jus that the contract was considered within their jurisdiction and demanded thatthe Job be placed under a union msn i
We agreed to this stating that we so proposed to do when the first capable manwould be available in about three daysThe committee next demanded that we j
remove the helper who was thenat the work We assented toagreed that he should be laid off until thearrival of the journeyman The commit 1
tee then insisted that this helpdr shouldbe removed from the job at Fort
We proposed to the committes a that the
arbitration We received the icply that I
upon the unions demands being complied j
with It would consent to arbitrate Thiswe in turn refused
We lave conceded the union everypossible demand We have been tsorsnpelled to employ nonunion men in selfdefence The men who are employed by uawill be retained to position where
We are paying Skilled workmen therate as to the union journeymen
New conditions must obtain when theunion men desire to xeturn to work
