DOVER, Jan. 16.-Governor- Stockley
was a uspiciously inaugurated at noon TO day
and in the event genuine interest and enthu-
siasm centered. Trains last night brought
into the town hundreds OF men of promi.
nence, and to-day many hundreds more
arrived from ALE parts of the State. The
regular and excursion trains from the north
were crowded with well-dressed and intelli-
gent-lo oking people, and the up trains were
even mo re crowded by people, who were
equally well-dressed aud intellIgent-looking.
The representation from Sussex county was
especially large ,and Nj. .Stockley's neighbors
were numbered by the hundreds aud his
friends by Thousands. Many people drove
In carriages, and 1t was . gala day despite
the leaden aspect Of the clouds that obscured
the sky, threaten ing to fall in faky snow
drops at any time.

They Piunder Shipley Street Residence
Will the Family is at Home.
The residence of John H. Cook, No. sos
Shipley street, was entered by sneak thieves
Yesterday afternoon aud robbed of a large
sum OF money aud some valuable jewelry,
With Mr.. Cook lives his wife's two sisters
and brother, John Sayers. Just
before o'clock, yesterday, Cook,
who is ship-carpenter, left for
his work, and his brother-in-law Sayers
sauntered out of the house about half an
hour later. At 9 o'clock one of the listers
of Mrs. Cook went UP stairs and obtained
her poeket-book, containing about SIS,
having occasion to pay a small bill, aud one
Of the other ladies' had gone to the front
door about the same time, finding both it
and the double blind vestibule door well
secured.
About $50 Mrs. Cooks daughter
notified her mother that the front
doors were open. One of the ladies,
all three OF whom were busy
IN the basemen; :, proceeded to room In the
second story back building; just at the head
OF the front stairs. There she found every
thing in the greatest confusion. Three
trunks were broken open, bureau drawers
pulled out and clothing scattered over the
floor.
Calling to her two sisters, who were In
the basement, hurried search was made
by the women, who discovered that they
had been robbed Of large amount of
money, and valuable jewelry which had
been placed in the trunks and bureau.
From one trunk, belonging to John Sayrrs,
1862, the savings Of three years, was taken
from stocking.
From another, 500, belonging to Cook,
was taken, and SIS III gold belonging to
Mrs. Cook. An od-iashioned set of coral
jewelry, which Miss Say ers says she would
know anywhere, aud valued at SS5; two
chain gold and enamelled bracelets, valued
at SS5; Cape May diamond pin, brilliant
buckle, silver watch, and two white shirts,
were the other artil les taken. A number
OF valuable dresses and suits of clothes auda
quantity of siverware were left behind.
The police were at once notified aud the
neighb0rhood searched, but no trace of any
suspicious characters could he found. How
the sneaks entered the house is not posi-
lively known, but it is clear that they left
bv the front door The vestibule door is a
double one, and it is presumed the bolt at
the top of one side of 1t was drawn by
either reaching over the transom or through
the Stats.
Tne robbery was done in manner point
ing 10 either professional thieves or :, IN one
thoroughly acquainted with the ia niN's
possessions aud their after dinner habits and
the affair has u flavor of mystery.
From comp etc canvass OF the neig bor-
hood no one could be- found who had seen
any strangers leave the house at tn, Time 1t

DOVER, Jan. 15.--Interest was ut white
heat to-day over the caucus which was
held last night, and large delegations were
here from New Castle and Sussex, re-
| spectively in the interests of II. A. Nowland
and Jshn M. Houston. Things were ma lie
very lively all afternoon, except when the
Houses were IN session, and at night before
the caucus met.
The caucus was held in the Representa-
tives' chamber, and commenced soon after
$50 O'Clock. Senator Horsey was made
chairman and DR.. Crawford clerk. The
nrst business taken up was that OF choosing
candidate for United States Senator,
which Is TO be voted for to- morrow. Thos.
IL. Denny nominated Hon. Eli salisbury,
and moved that the nomination be made by
acclamation which was carried, and Mr..
salisbury was selected.
The Iext business was the selection of a
candidate for State Treasurer, and H. A.
Nowland, John M. Houston and Thomas A.
Cavender were nominated. The New Castle
members made an earnest fight for Mr..
Nowland, but 1t was Unsuccessful, and Mr..
Houston was nominated on the second
ballot. On the first ballot Houston got IL
votes Nowland 10 and Cavender 5. On the
oeco ballot 1t stood Houston l6, Now
land y and Cavender and this decided the
result.
For State Auditor the leading candidates
were Drs. Cooper OF keuton aud Whitley of
Frederlca, aud Jesse l.. Long Of Laurel. 1t
required i've ballots to decide the contest,
and the result was the selection OF Mr.
Long, this being due to the fact that the
New Castle menbers resented the rack of
promised support In Kent IOr Mr. Now and.
and voted lur the successful cand date in
preference to either of the neuical applt-
cants.
In connection with the State Treasurer
ship contest the interesting fact wus de-
vclOped this afternoon that New Castle
county mas had one State Treasurer since
the Rev0luthn--who was elected in 1S4g.
This distinguished individual was Jac, b
taris, OF Pencader hundred, father ut u.
Brainerd Ferris (the SUBS changed the
photography Of the family pame) u member
Ot the lower House OF the Legislature in
1873. The discovery was made by Nathaniel
williams and VIM. Gre Of MiddleIown,
who patiently searched the old volumes of
state laws until the desired iutoi nation was
obtained.
