IHonvy Fines Imposed ON Monday
For Illicit sale OF Liquor.
Chief bwigRett's desk at the city court
Monday morning resembled go much the
croupier's counter at 0 rouge-eE- noiI
table, on account Of the large sums OF
bank notes and rouleaux of silver dollars
heaped upon it by the convicted traffickers
in illegal sale of liquor that Oty Solicitor
Turner remarked to the court, "The
liquor business must be more profitable
than Richmond terminal stock"
The court was thronged with an i'm
mense audience Monday morning.
As tho name of Mary Barenbach Of
Browntown was called, there were four
informations sworn against the defendant.
MIR. Turner stated that Mrs. Barenbach is
a widow, and that in consideration Of her
pleading guilty to one Of the counts Of
illioit sale OF liquor, he would, upon the
defendants promise not to break the law
again, ask the court to retire the other
three infoEPations for the present, which,
however would DO Brought up again in
case of the prisoners arrest for similar
offence.
Judge Ball told the prisoner he would
accept the city solicitors suggestion but
warned her OF the risk she ran in attempt
ing any further infiaction of the law. He
added that the mayor Is determined to
break up tho Illicit business. Mrs.
Barenbsch WAS fined $50 and costs.
Matthew Henner OF Rosendsle Park
was convicted on three separate counts of
selling beer aud whisky illegally. The
testimony as given by 4. 3. Truman was
not questioned. The prisoner was flnsd
on each information; total fine $3.50 and
costs.
In the case of Oatharine Clark, charged
In three counts with selling liquor without
a license, Mr.. Turner made similar ap-
peal as in the CASE of Mrs. Barenbach.
Judge Ball extended elemenoy In this
Gaze also upon obtaining promises in re-
gard to future good conduct. Mrs. CLARK
was iined $50 and costs on the one case to
which abe pleaded guilty.
Robert frankfort, Of the frn. OF Whit
craft Il Franktord pleaded guilty to one
charge Of selling liquor without license.
Five iBformations we're sworn out against
the prisoner. Certain circumstances
uctuaied the city solicitor to state to the
court that as Frankford had pleaded
guilty to one of the counts he would not
Dress the other charges on the present
oooasion and apked the consideration Of
the court therefor. Judge Bal. reph-
mended the prisoner sharply and eau.
tlpued him rs to the risks he ran should
he arrested again upon the same charges.
The Other four informations will he held
uu against him He was fined $50 and

GONE TO SEN HARRISON,
Trent nud Doyvnhnn said 10 Hny
Taken n Journey TO IudinnnnnIk,

Trent nnd DoNvnhnM said 10 Have
Taken n Journey TO Indianapolis.
There Ia q well-detlned rumor around
Wilmington to the effect that Charles II.
Treat, late Republican candidate for
Congress, and McKendree Downham, Lte-
publican member elect of the Delaware
House OF Representatives from Sussex
county, have gone TO indianapolis to
visit President elect Harrison. Both left
their homes, in Georgetown, on Saturday
morning, and no one In Geor getoWn
Seems TO know whittier they were bound.
The object of the visit, II is presumed,
is TO help Mr.. Treat In his senatorial can.
vars. lie means business in the fight,
and Downham Is his right hand man.
Treat, as delegate TO the Republican
national convention at Chicago was an
"onginal Harrison man." and voted for
the finally successful candidate from first
to lsat. Now, II he can induce Harrison
to endorse his senatorial claims in a letter
TO be exhibited to members Ot tine Iegls.
lsture, 1t might help him amazingly.
And suoh letter, 1t is said, Treat and
Downhsm have gone to indianapolis
after.
The Higgins adherents are terribly
alarmed at this move aud greatly fear
that Treat will succeed In getting what he
desires, although they console themselves
with the reflection that Gen. Harrison
will not be 80 foolish as TO interfere in
the senatorial fight In this State. Some
refuse to believe that Treat and Down
ham have gone to Indianapolis, but all
ere dreadfuliy worried and fearful of the
result.

The one fact made apparent To tha
Democratic politicians Of Delaware h.
the result OF the recent election In thia
State was that faotionAl quarrels. n ns,-
sisted In, will utterly defeat thu mart,
and place tho stats entirely undar NJ

lature and Republican United Statas
Senate comprise the penalty thus far
paid Tor the luxury OF INDUCING in fierce
faotionai qusrTels, and II was clear TO all
that unless halt Is called and the party
lines reformed Republican governor
Will be added TO the list in the campaign
OF 1890.
For some time past prominent leader

The participants In the caucus pIedg ed
themselves to do all in their power 10
secure this desirable result.
The question Of the attitude of the
Democratic members Of tho General

mite plan OF action was determined upop
This question was deferred until il ear
I be seen what line Of policy ia likely tC
be pursued by the Republican majority ii

pnny's store Broken open.
Thieves broke into the candy and
cracker bakery Of the James Barley d
Bsothers Company at Fourth and French
street between and 8 O'Clock Tuesday
morning, hut they failed to hnd the
booty which they were seeking. They
evidently used some powerful lever in
forcing the lock of the store on the
Fourth street side and during the opera
tion they broke one of the panes Of glass
In the door. After gaining an entrance,
they pried open the two money drawers
but found nothing as tho money had oil
been removed.
Shortly before the discovery was made
policeman in passing the corner saw
three men sitting on the door step. One
of them either was drunk or pretended to
be drunk and the officer notified the
other two to take the man home or he
would look him up. Shortly after the

1t is believed that these three men were
the perpetrators. Nothing of value has
