VACATION SCHEDULES SET Arrangements Are Made for Summer Schools, S235,051.24 Directed Paid, Banks Apply for Funds and Other Business Up. Several important items of business mere acted on at a meeting of the Board of School directors yesterday afternoon. The schedule providing for vacation schools was adopted in the form submitted by Superintendent Aldermarv. Bids were opened for all kinds of supplies required by the Board for the year 1915-1918 and were referred to the committees for tabula tion. Several banks applied for deposits of school funds and these applications, approved by the District Attorney, were laid before the Board, which ordered them submitted to the finance com mittee. In this connection, R. H. Thomas school clerk, submitted an opinion from the District Attorney that special funds could not legally be created by the segregation of amounts which might be placed so as to draw more interest than other school moneys. Salaries of high school secretaries who have been receiving $50 a month were ordered increased to $75 a month The board committees were reor ganized so that four will handle the business which formerly devolved upon eight. It was decided to dispense with citv examinations of school teachers after the coming examination is concluded. The Board ordered warrants drawn tor the payment .of claims amounting to $235,051.34. The renewal of the bond of Clerk Thomas was approved. , Water Meter Iebate Announced. A large attendance Is expected at to day's luncheon Tneeting of the Port land Realty Board, where E. G. Hopson, formerly of the United States Reclama tion Service, will debate the water meter question with City Commissioner Daly. Unusual interest has been aroused because of Mr. Daly's loud boast that no one dared to debate the question with him in public. Clarence R. Hotchkiss will preside. The meet ing will be held in the new dining-room on the fifth floor of the Commercial Club building, and the general public is mviiea to oe present. MR. DALY TALKS METERS Large Crowd Hears Explanations r Plan at Baker. Before a large crowd at the Baker Theater last night City Commissioner Daly explained his attitude regarding the city-wide water meter issue to be voted upon at the city election Monday. The meeting was arranged for the ben efit of those who wished to hear Mr. Daly expound his views. He spoke at considerable length upon the subject of the Bull Run River and the source of the city's supply, saying that in the Summer the river gets so low that at times there is only suffi cient water to supply the city. He declared that Portland has cause for conserving Mts water supply. He spoke at length also upon the subject of the saving in water that, he said, is possible with a meter system. He said that by reason of the decreased strain on small mains due to reduced use of water, the Water Bureau will be re lieved of the necessity temporarily of constructing reinforcing mains. 1 At the close of his address questions were asked him by various persons, some for and some against meters. MILK INSPECTION IS BEGUN Two Dairy Plants, Already Certified, Examined by Commission. " Members of Portland's new Medical Milk Commission yesterday started an inspection of dairy plants to ascertain which are entitled to certification by the Commission. Two dairies which have been certified heretofore by the State Board of Health were examined by the Commission. i Before a dairy can be -certified it must measure up to the most exaclng details of sanitation and cleanliness of milk supply. ROBBERS GET $1000 Safe of Tauscher's Cafe at 146 Second Street Blown. EXPLOSION HEARD AT 3:20 Employe Thinks He Interrupted Plunderers, sas Casli Register "With Several Hundred Dol lrs Was Left Untouched. A hon?ry man wonders If a woman 11 V alone ever iulm a square meal. Gaining entrance by means of a rope through an open rear window, two men blew up the safe at Tauscher's Cafe, conducted by R. Tauscher at 146 Second street, about 3:20 yesterday morning, and escaped with more than $1000 in cash. A bottle -of nitrogly cerine was left on the bar and ham mers and chisels were scattered about the floor when the place was entered, Immediately following the burglary, by Frank Johnston, who is employed at the place. Two men, evidently the robbers, were seen leaving the place on the run by Tom Cocotas, who conducts a fruit stand at Second and Alder streets, about half a block from the cafe. Mr. Cocotas said he heard a muffled ex plosion and shortly afterwards saw the two men leave the saloon on the run and disappear into a stairway leading into the building located on the north east corner of Second and Morrison streets. He could give no description of the men other than that they wore mustaches. The explosion was heard by a num ber of streetcar conductors, all of whoni testified that it occurred at 3:20. None of them saw the men, however. A. H. Dooris. conductor of a Sellwood tar, said he heard the explosion as his car came to a stop at Second and Mor rison streets, half a block away from the scene of the burglary. A. R. Kei ser, 1132 East Twenty-second street. conductor on a Woodstock car, also heard the explosion as his car ap proached Alder street. B. Orrell, 620 Marlon street, s- conductor, said, lie heard the explosion from Second and Alder streets. The burglary was reported to Pa trolmen Morris and Tully by Frank Johnston. Mr. Johnston is of the opinion that the burglars were still In the place when he arrived at the front door to unlock it. This he declares Is indicated by the fact that the men Lleft their tools lying about and that the cash register was not touched. Mr. Johnston said that he heard no one leave the place. He also said that he did not hear the explosion, al though it must have occurred but a few minutes before he arrived. The window through which en trance was gained to the saloon is high, its top being on a line with the ceiling. It was left open last night. The men reached it by climbing a standpipe outside and lowered them selves into the room by a rope. Everything in the safe was taken with the exception of checks for about $200.

The boy, who has been in the em ploy of the Marshall-Wells Company since 1911, is said to have been taking various articles since 1913.

Limerick Accused of Con ducting -Main Sunday. GRAND JURY WILL ACT Defendant Declares Sale Was Con templated, ' So Demonstration Was Being Given Flight of Spectators Held Damaging. J. P. Limerick, of 417 San Rafael street, prominent raiser of game chick ens, who was arrested Sunday morning on a. charge of cockfightlng, was bound over to the grand jury yesterday by Municipal Judge Stevenson. Lewis W. Pitts, who made the arrest, testified that two of the birds were fighting in Limerick's back yard, surrounded by a ring of spectators, of which Mr. Lim erick was one, and also testified that he saw one dead bird. After watching the fighting from a hole in the back fence for a few min utes the officer testified that he ap peared on the scene and arrested Mr. Limerick. He said the spectators, of which there were about a dozen, scat tered, running in every direction. He was unable to discover the birds which had been fighting or the one which had been killed, and is of the opinion that they were put in a valise and carried away. Mr. Limerick testified that there had been no fighting at his place that day, and his testimony was corroborated by several of the men who were there at I the time of the arrest. He said he was planning to nave a saie oi euros ana bad a number of them on exhibition. Mr. Limerick said the war in Mexico had ruined the cock-raising business, and consequently he was going to get out of it as soon as possible. It was for that reason, he said, that he was celling the birds. In turning the case over to the grand jury Judge Stevenson said that, while the preponderance of evidence had been for the defendant, flight was the most damaging kind of evidence, and the tes timony had shown that the majority of the men gathered at Mr. Limerick's home on that morning had fled on the arrival of the policeman.
