sany Persons at New Castle in Peril OF
Their Lives. They Went where They
Had Been Forbidden TO go.
BY letter to EVENING JOURNAL.
NEW CASTLE, Del, Aug. 25.-A most
startling accident occurred here last night
which might have cost the lives of over
100 persons. The William Lea & Sons
Company's wharf is being torn down,
preparatory TO the building Of a new one.
and a large part Of the foundations upon
which the wharf was built, was removed
on Thursday and yesterday. Last even
ing a moonlight excursion on the steamer
Wilmington attracted large crowd to
the wharf. good many of whom went
on the excursion. There were several
men stationed on the wharf, however, to
warn the people not to go
on the end Of the wharf, but notwith-
standing it was crowded when the
steamer arrived. just as the steamer
touched ut the wharf there came crash
and the wooden portion of the wharf
crowded with these people caved in
Women tainted and screamed Bnd every
one seemed half-crazed A number Of
people jumped on the boat and were thus
taken off on the excursion as the Will
mington could not get to the wharf after
the accident. A number of persons who
had their tickets and were all ready to go
were left standing on the wharf.
The escapes seem providential to every
one who saw the accident. One cannot
understand how anyone could have
escaped death who was on the wharf
The excursion was composed Of the

No tariff and no profit,
except to the purchaser, is
the way J. T. Mullin &
Son are selling Clothing
these days. 1t needs no
argument to tell you why,
but we'll tell you it is the
end of the season. and for
us to carry one or two
suits of a kind over to
another season we think
would be foolish. Any
way we are going to sell
them, and if you want you
can get a good bargain in
either a mans or BOYS
suit, and, while you will
be Rrofted, you will
be helping US to turn them
into cash. We are selling
lots of good Pantaloons
on the same terms and
have plenty of them yet
to offer, but at the rate
they are going they'll
soon be gone. Come and
