has decided not to stop here on Sundays
It is asserted that by an arrangement she
will stop at the long pier and take
Wilmington patrons. This will make
her traffic larger. Then again, IL is
said that the crowd from here is,so rough
that the Clyde does not want the New
Castle patronage However, it is being
agitated that when the Clyde throws her
gang planks here on Wednesdays that
not soul is TO 60 aboard. One injured
excursionist said to-day. '1f we are
good enough to stop for through the
week, why not then on Sunday. New
Castle people always could and did behave
themselve properly, but when rowdies
try to molest and only for the sake of a
little city fun then New Castle people
are always justified in acting in self de-
fense Il would be imagined that New

from Philadelphia than New Castles
