Those who have been consoling
themselves with the vain deluslon that
lAddicks had given up all hope OF ever
being able to tear up tho streets OF
this city, for the purpose Of laying his
gas pipes wherever he
pleased, will now see their mistake, as
his determination Ia as fixed as ever,
On Saturday Austin Harrington, one
lof Mr.. Addidks' attorneys, appeared
before Chancellor Wolcott and asked
that John T. Tyler. OF Boston, be APP
pointed commissioner to take affida.
Wits In that city. to demurrer to be
filed before the Chancellor, praying
the Dismissal OF the injunction now
the Oxy-H hydrogen Company In this
lefty. The petition was granted. and
las soon as the papers are returned
from Boston the demurrer Will be
filled.
A reporter afterwards visited Mr..
IAddicks at Ills home at Claymont,
" hen he. in answer to his questions,
replied.
'Yee, we mean business. My Phila-
dolphin agent, G. Berkeley Taylor. Esq,
through our attorneys In Wilmington,
Messrs. Harrington ndWard, has made
I'd the court to have the
dismissed. It is simply
Jour answer to the old injunction,
(which was not made before for certain
Ireasons of our own.
1.-THE suit does not make the Oxy-
Hydrogen company defendant,
therefore the instrument really has no
weight. The defendants named in the
|suit are stockholders. true enough. but
1.-THE fact that the company itself is OF
named will, undoubtedly. cause til {,
dismissal oil the injunction. Then Il
the city wants to restrain US, they VIII
have to sue over In regular way.
Il have no doubt at all what the de-
lcision will be. We have o good char
fer which plainly defines our rights,
land when our rights are established
we will have 10 sue the city for dam
ages for time lost pending the iniunc-
|tion.
'.As soon as the Street and Sewer
Department Of Wilmington receives
notice from the courts that we have
equal rights with other manufacture
ers OF your city, we will begin the
work Of laying pipes. Our charter
gives US, the privilege to run mains
through the city and We are going to
do it. We are pushing the suit to an
early settlement. We don't intend to
do any damage anywhere. but we do
want the rights given us by the State
by the city.
1.-The reason why we have delayed
our answer ih this matter 1s that we
did not want 10 make any excuse for
political capital. This Is not politi-
cal matter at all. 1t Is purely mat
ter OF business. Therefore we decided
to let matters remain quiet until after
the election, and now that it is over
we will go right ahead and establish
our rights. after which we will pre-
pare TO supply the city with our pro-
duct"

RAyoooN, June ee.-For several days
the Moslems have been preparing to cele-
brate religious festival yesterday. In the
morning they were forbidden by Mr.. Flem-
ing, British magistrate, TO sacrifice o COW
near the Hindoo temple. Mr.. Fleming
had threatened on Saturday to issue this
order. and the Mohammedans were greatly
excited before the hour for the sacrifice
When the police appeared near the temple
with the announcements the Mohammedans
began stoning them. The police charged
without firing, but the Mohammedans
held their ground stubbonly and fought
back with sticks and stones. Mn Fleming
went to the spot as soon az the trouble be-
came imminent. Several policemen were
wounded.
The police withdrew, got reinforcements
and charged again, but without effect
Mr.. Fleming then ordered them to fire.
The volley was delivered at short quarters
Twenty Mohammedans fell dead and many
more were wounded severely. As the Mo-

charged ON the double quick with fixed
bayonets. The Mohammedans dispersed
slowly, and still fighting. although many
had been wounded In the charge Of tho
troops.
They gathered again. however, In q
street short distance from the temple.
They were hardly dispersed before they
reaasam b1ed In nnothar of raat A daau1f
ory fight between them and the troops has
been in progress at intervals ever since.
All the military are occupied In clearing
the streets. Many Mohammedans and
Hindoos have been killed and scores have
been wounded. Nevertheless they show
no signs Of yielding, but as fast as they
are driven from one district gather again
in another. The regulars are nsgarded as
unequal to the task Of subduing them,
and volunteers have been called upon to
do duty in the streets.
