FIRST EDITION.

More residents of West Whining.
ton are beginning to realize the fact
that admission into the city limits
will prove beneficial, instead of detri-
mental, to thei. personal and property
interests. Thirty y-seven Of the largest
property owners in the district signed
The original petition for annexation,
and up TO Saturday night forty-nine
residents who had signed the remon-
STRANGE, attached their names to PEI
tition setting forth tnat they had first
signed the remonstrance from a mis-
understanding, and by reason Of being
misinform9d an to the results of the
proposed annexation. This latter Pc
Lltion, will be forwarded to Dover to-
morton evening, by which time, it is
expected. 1t win bear the signatures
of at least one hundred former remon-
strants. The bill will also be amend
ed SO as TO make the city liue extend
from Maryland avenue to Beech and
Union streets, and insert the names
of George X. Roberts and Solomon
Cook, Republicans. as Inspectors to
hold the first election under the new
arrangement, in two of the districts.
Thus amended, the bill will come up
as fair, open business measure, and
as such will be considered by the Leg
islature, with favorable sentiment in
West Wilmington and the city proper
that will sutely convince the Legisla-
ture of the necessity for it's passge.

IN BALTIMORE AND DAGsBoRoUGH
HUNDREDS.
From Georgetown'Inquirer.
Mrs. George Furmau, of Selbyville,
died on Thursday week. Her funeral
took place on Sunday, and the little
church in which the memorial servi-
ces were held was crowded by coun-
try folks. According to custom
long esta blished in this part OF the
State, the coffin of deceased was open
ed and hundreds of people embraced
the opportunity to take the last look
at the deceased. The cause of her
death was yet a mystery, bat when it
was remembered in the community
that the dead lady had recently re-
ceived from Philadelphia a buffalo
robe it became matter of gossip that
she had died of small pox. On the
heels of this conclusion came anoi her
case of similar character, another, still
another, and SO on until the number
yesterday, it was reported, reached
forty In the meantime Mrs. Fur
mans two children, according to lat
est advices, had died of the plague
and her husband was i'll of the same.
On thursday, az Frankford, several
physicians of the lower part of the
county held a consultation as to the
character of the disease and, it is
said, were unanimous in the conslu.
sion that it was small pox. Immedi-
ately, or as soon as the news could
spread, genuine panic ensued, and
telegraphic order was sent TO Phila-
delphia for virus sufficient to iaocu-
late The inhabitants OF Baltimore and
Dagsborough hundreds. Yesterday
DR.. Layton, here, was asked to trans-
init virus for 100 persons and in The
afternoon DR.. Richards sent a lot
down to the afflicted community.
People are leaving the infected dis
trict III large numbers, and it was re-
ported yesterday that the schDols,
churches and business places OF Bish-
opvllle, Selbyville, ,Roxana and Frank
ford would have to be closed unless
the disease abated. Everybody is flll-
cd with fear, and tb people of George.
town are becoming apprehensive that
the plague may find foothold here.

FIRE LAST NIGHT.

GIenn's Boiler Works and Douglas d Halls
Machine Shops Burned DOtcn- Loss About
S11.5OO-Insurdnce Sc, 600.
At few minutes past o'clock last night a
fire was discoveredin NJ. W. Glenn's boiler
works. The flames made rapid progress, and
before the fremen could get to work they had
almost consumed the boiler works and had al
SO enveloped The machine shop of Douglass d
Hall. The firemen fought nobly and within a
very few minutes after the first outburst of
the flames, strings of hose diverged in every
direction, and water was quickly flowing in
perfect torrents upon the burning buildings.
Nevertheless both establishments were soon
burned to the ground. At the present writing
it is utterly impossible to arrive at the exact
amount of the loss. In both the shops was a
vast amount of work in process of compile
ton. Doubtless considerable of the machin-
erp will be saved in slightly damaged condi-
ton. Douglas & Halls loss will probably
not exceed seven thousand dollars, and insured
for four thousand five hundred dollars.
Gienns loss is about four thousand five hun
bred dollars, with one thousand five hundred
dollars insurance. Douglas & Hall were burned
out three years ago, at the time OF the great
mill explosion

WHAT is THE MATTER?

SouaetHin1 Most Decidedly Wrong te TIE
advancement of the Minneapolis POST
office.
Complaints against the present management
of our postoffice are by far too frequent Ap-
parently something is wrong. The reporter
is informed of one instance where an import
ant letter, containing pension money Tor an
invalid soldier, laid in the postofflce, as conclu-
sively proven by the postmark, five days. Now
during these five days the pensioner had called
daily for the same at the delivery window IN the
postoffice He invariably received the answer
that he had no mail there. BY this time the
soldiers attorney had received an official no.
tice that the money had been forwarded from
the pension Office. The attorney told his ell
ent to 90 at once TO the postofiece and make
a positive demand for the letter, as he
"kneW it must be there.
He went as instructed but
received an answer similar TO those of all former
occasions, nsomuch as it sayored more OF
insoIence The pensioner demanded thorough
search, with unusual emphasis. At this juno
ture, another employe of the office stepped up
and volunteered to endeavor to ind the letter.
After few minutes search he brought 1t and
delivered it to the man.
Another instance is the case OF an employe
of the Northern Pacific railroad. He had been
at work at Mandan, but having been granted
leave of absence, was spending vacation in
this city. When he was ready to return, he
telegraphed the fact to the civil engineer at
Mandan, his employer, and that he wanted
pass This was on the 7th day OF May. On
the same day a letter was mailed him at Man
dan containing the desired pass, reaching this
postoffice on the 10Th. The man called daily
at the postoffice for his expected pass, but was
as frequently told that there was no letter for
him. This programme was continued during
the entire month. On Wednesday, June 9th,
he received a letter from his employer telling
him to report at once at headquarters IN
Mandon. This letter had been mailed on
May 7th, reaching this postoffice May
10th, but was not delivered to
aim until the sixth day of June.
Again he received postal card, this was de-
Iivered with reasonable promptness) ingulrlng
the reason of his delay. Up to the present
time the missing letter containing the pass to
Mandan has not come to hand.
This is only two of many instances which
have been brought to the notice OF the re-
porter. Space forbids their detailed publlca-
ton.
Tina question naturally arises, What is to be
done to protect the patrons of the United
States mail service? The interests of business
men and others are being daily jeopardlzed by
similar reprehensible mismanagement or gross
carelessness in our postofice department.

THE IRISH STRUGGLE.
The London Times Recommends the
Slaughter of One Irish Mob-1roops
Under Orders to Prevent Meeting at
ANY Cost-The Liverpool Prisoners Re-
manded.

A TINES RECOMMENDATION.
LONDON, June 1.-THE Times, cJm-
menting on the growth of lawlessness in
ireland, says: One experiment which is
most obvious and most certain to succeed,
remains untried If one mob of Fenians
or land leagues, or whatever other title,
were Just for once not suffered to have
it's own way; if its appeal to force were
met and overcome, and if the mob were
disposed and forbidden to reassemble, the
consequences might be happy
in the extreme. One victory OF
law would be the signal for others.
The objections to such an experiment are
obvious, but not conclusive. The forci
bic dispersion of a mob in Ireland would
be certainly followed by howl Of exc
Grafton from their parliamentary friends
and champions The Irish press, which
is silent over injuries to. police, would be
eloquent in the case we are now suppos-
ing, but the Land league would receive
something very like its death blow, and
might itself fall iuto the contempt with
which the law is now treated in Ireland.
THE LIVERPOOL PRISONERS.
LIVERPOOL, June 1.-THE examination

present at the examination, and only per-
sons having business were admitted to

formally remanded.
