has appeared In the person of Nathan S. Jonas.Mr. lonas Is a member of ihe Commltti a on Bttp-plies of the Lo.ird, aiid has long been known a«one of Dr. Maxwell's eriemie;-. it was rumored

that lie v.;ih the leader in the movement for theelection or Principal Gunnison of th^ ErasmuiHall High School as City Superintendent.

Mr. Jonas was reported as sayinK on Fri<j;iyevening at the Broadway Board of Trade meet-Ing, in Brooklyn:

1 hay« told Controller Oroul end Mayor Mi'-Ckllan that they should know everything we do.Ihave always maintained that the Board of Edu-cation has done nothing, or, rather ought to havedone nothing, that it should i'<: ashamed to havemade public.

Dr. Maxwell, .'is receot disclosures show, is in-tf-rcstoii in many books. 1 am happy to say thatIbelieve that I started this last Investigation ofroyalties. Mr. Maxwell draws several times ssmuch money In royalties as in salary, l wouldrather s<-»- him paid ttf,OQf a year Instead of$.C ,<W.».
