r P3HE SIX L Ml Much excitement exists In public school circles because ol the fact that iiulto a number of well knewn teach ers will not be re-employed for next year, including u number who have taught in the Jledford schools for years, several of whom have been and ure regarded by the public ami. among tho teachers themselves as among the ableit und most efficient of tho teaching corps in their respec tive grades. They havo not been sent contracts for next year. This fact has created much excite inont in schodl circles and not a little indignation among the marked teach ers and their friends and acquain tances, to say nothing of the surprise to the general public. A meeting or protest was held by tho teachers who have been dropped for next year, and theSr friends among tho teachers gen erally and parents of their pupils Sat urday, at which it was decided to de mand of Supt. Davenport the oxuet roasons for tho rejection ot each toucher. Mr. Davenport when interviewed this forenoon said that ho was not at liberty to discuss tho situation pub licly as yet, and Intimated that a statement would be forthcoming Horn tho school board when all tho con tracts had been sent out. Thu board will hold its next regular meeting tomorrow night. It is understood that tho contracts already sent out give substantial sal ary Increases in acconlanco with the Dorcentngo announced in tho Bevori l oiades hv tho hoard recently. It Is ulso understood that each teacher's caao has been considered individually, by tho Ix.'aru as to qualifications and rotontion, and as to amount of salary. It Is reported that ono grade school principal who this year received a salary of $1200 or $1100, has boon tendered a contract which calls 101 ilflSO. Ono of tho well known teachers hero for years, a single woman, who owns her home In the city, has m.'t boon offered a contrai l. It Is under stood that all married teachers also arodronned. The Washinglun school building has been hard hit and it is said that next year thu majority of tho high Bchool faculty will bo new teachors. NEW YOUK, Mar. 8.

Offic ial orders lo the above effect were received today by Captain II. A. C'u niiilay from Adjutant General Slraf fin. Wlui the order came some time ago without warning transferring the coinpanv into the artillery battalion the members were very indignant and practically iinanimouslv drew up a protest lo the adjutant cencrul against Hie transfer. The men argued that they hail enlisted in the coin panv bccaJise of their liking for the infantry branch of the service, and that it was unfair to transfer them into Hie artillery. While word came back inilirectlv from various unofficial sources that the adjutant general's office bad no disposition lo force Hie coinpanv into n branch of service ils members did not like, the tniHsfcr order was not rescinded unlil the arrival of Hie let ter received today, although techni cally the coinpanv ill Hie interim was officially a component part of the artillery battalian.
