 did not condescend to g personal scramble
 for his nomination. His record is clean. No

 The Davis bill for the relief of the Supreme Court which has passed the Senate by vote of 32 to IS provides for the establishment of a court of appeals in each of the nine judi cial circuits of the United States The court will consist of six judges, including one jus tice of the Supreme Court, three circuit judges and two district judges. This will re- quire the appointment of two additional cir cult judges in each district, or eighteen in all, which appointments the President is author
 zed to make. Two sessions annually are re-
 
 Philadelphia, Richmond, New Orleans, Gin cinnati, Chicago, St. Louis and San Francis co. The bill provides what appeals may be made to this court, and makes it's decision final except in certain points of law which may be carried to the Supreme Court. This will cut of great deal of litigation which now cumbers the Supreme Court, and in rio of which ia now denied. It is predicted that the Demo crats will make strong fight to defeat the bill in the House.
 All the Republican members of Congress from Pennsylvania are said to have united in recommending Harry W. Olive, jr., of Pitts burg, to the President for member of the tariff commission.

Another Pennsyl vanian who is strongly recommended for place on the commission is Eckley Cox, large coal operator of Luzerne- The Demo cratic members from Pennsylvania are sup porting him. Judge Kelley has suggested to the President the appointment of Robert P. Porter, of New York, who was special agent in taking the last census, having charge of the collection and compilation of statistics Of debts, and who has recently pub lished a volume on the development of the Western States during the present century He is now in England studying the industrial condition of that country with the view of publishing another work.

The dullness which has prevailed in the New York and Boston stock exchanges dur ing the last few days has not been very en- couraging to the brokers. In New York Thursday the operations footed up 12o, ,0Oo shares of stock to be divided among HOO brokers. In Boston on the same day the transactions in stock amounted to less than 1,60O shares to be divided among about 70 brokers, or an average of about 22 shares each, which, on very liberal estimate, would not yield over $5 with which to pay office rent, clerk hire and all other running expenses.

THE RAILROAD WHARF

1 Ah6
THE RAILROAD WHARF
Is loo ated at San Pedro, about two
miles and half beyond Whining
ton, the road to it, for the greater
part of the way, except where 1t
crosses Boschke Island, being laid
on trestle work. From Mr. VIM.
Millen, the Superintendent, we
learned that the wharf is 1000
feet long, with approaches 600 feet
In length, giving total length Of
1900 feet. Two tracks are already
laid and others will be put down
as soon as the warehouse and the
portion of the wharf on the inner
side of this warehouse, which is
being extended shoreward, is COM
pleted. This building is 260x20
feet, fifty feet of the outer end be-
ing two stories high. The lower
story will be used as offices while
the second story will be occupied
by Mr.. Mansfield, the agent, as a
residence. The wharf and ware
house building will be completed
and ready for business by the end
of this month.
OTHER RAILROAD WORK.
Under the bluff back of the
wharf, and for some distance be-
You'd, three switches for the stor-
age OF cars have been laid, and a
switch is new in process of con.
struction from the outer end of the
wharf to intersect them at point
about midway between the wharf
and Timms's Point. A second
switch, 500 feet long, will run on
trestle work from the end Of the
wharf to the bluff. Itis the inten-
ton of the Railroad Company to
run track along the bluff, 20 feet
higher than the tracks already
laid, for the transportation of coal
to the bins, which will be placed
under it at such height as to be
easily accessible 10 cars on the
track below. When all the work |
contemplated is completed, it will
be such as to assure ths greatest
and utmost dispatch |
OF business.
A SUCCESS.
The excursion altogether was u
success and will, we have no doubt,
result in great good to the object |
for which it was projected-unitiDg
our people in an intelligent and
earnest effort to secure the Con.
gressiOnal aid desired. Many of
those who were present, even of
our own citizens, visited Viii.
mington for the first time and all
were impressed with the magni-
tude and Importance Of the work |
done. The strangers who |
went down, of whom there was
go0dly number, expressed surprise
at what they saw and would scarce
ly believe that SO much had been
accomplished in 60 short time |
and st so slight cost. Barring
the tediousness of the ride to and |
from Wilmington, every body was
delighted with the days expe.
