WILMISGToN, DEL, August 9.-The
Epeyy ErcniRg Dover DELI correspon-
dent says: Tramps arc still coming
down the Peninsula by the carload,
and what to do with them is how the
question.
Over one hundred Of them are now in
Dover Jail and that building ear hold no
more. Twenty-six were added 10 the
number Yesterday. The railroad officers
are doing all the arreSting, and they
only take men who. have broken into
cars or damaged property in some way.
Last night Detective Hutchlns received
telegram asking him to come to
Wyoming, where full geo tramps were
hanging around the station. But he
didn't go, Us he had no place 10 put them
If they were arrested.
A great many think that the fruit-men
made "a big mistake in passing that
tramp protective resolution " at their
last meeting, rs it has evidently en-
couraged this class 10 come here.
II is estimated that fully 10000 arc
on the Peninsula, and still they come.
1t is proposed by some that the railroad
company run tramp train daily north
ward until about four ifths OF them are
carried back from whcnce they came.
