Argument Begun In Litigation
Which Promises to BE Interesting.
The Coast Line litigation began in the
Superior court yesterday and will likely
occupy its attention for several days.
The case is one in which r. r. Richards,
Esq, w Il. Leakcn, Esq, and Charlton,
Mackall & Anderson, in taking exception
to the masters report, have made charges
against the administration of the roads
affairs by Mr. George Parsons.
Mr. Richards began the argument be-
fore Judge Falligaut yesterday morning
and was still speaking at 10 o'clock last
night The most of his efforts was in in
Producing documentary evidence TO sup
port the charges brought in the Lucy
Greene declaration, and he has not yet
got down to the argument on facts. The
other lawyers who are to speak in the
case are Col George A. Mercer for Will
h1m German, ct al, who are also object
ing to the masters report; Ex-Gov.
Chamberlain, who represents Mr.. Par
sons, and Mr.. Leaken and Mr.. Charlton,
who represent other directors to the re-
port
To-day's speeches, no doubt, will be
quite interesting.

scarcity Of money they marked these
goods at once on very small margin of

Albany to take charge of the melon bust

fight between the Central and S. r. & w.

ever shippers so desire them.
The melon business in that section has
been enormous this year, and by the end
of the season, which is near at hand, fully
5000 ears viii have been shipped from
Southwestern Georgia alone.
Nearly $500 of these have already gone,
most of them going north and west. The
Middle Georgia crop will soon be at its
height, and it will be some time before
melons are exhausted

CHEsTERTowN, MD, Sept. l0.-When
near Blacks Station this morning the
eccentric stretch, steel bar under the
boiler of the Baltimore & Delaware Bay
railroad, broke, ramming hole in the
fire-box and boiler of the engine. The
train was instantly enveloped in a
cloud of escaping steam and boiling
water.
George Brynes, the firemen, to avoid
being scalded, leaped from the train,
which was running at the rate of about
25 miles an hour. The unfortunate man
was caught in some way and was
dragged about so feet Several ribs were
broken and fearful injuries were re-
ceived about the head, while nearly his
entire body was horribly bruised. pr.

companied him on special train to

There is only possibility that Brynes
will recover.

Special Correspondence of Gazette aud journal
NEWARK, Sept. 11.--W Wednesday last,
when the doors Of Delaware College
opened for the admission of new
students they did not apparently open
quite wide enough, since out Of twenty
who applied fer admission to the fresh
men class only twelve were actually adj
mitted, and several of these only condi-
tionally, it is announced.
The reason for this is thatthc entrance
examination this year was designedly
more rigid than for some years back the
faculty of the college having come to
the wise conclusion that the formal en-
trance examination in all the rudimen-
tary branches-arbitrarily abandoned by
President Raub upon his accession to
the presidency five years ago-must be
enforced for the good of the college and
accordingly the requirements for admis-
sion as published in the college catalogue
were lived up to, to the intense surprise
and disappointment of the eight appli-
cants who could not pass the examina-
ton.
Most all the old students are returned
and it is likely that there will be quite a
number more of applicants for admis-
sion. In any event a heroic attempt
will be made this year to raise the STAN
dard all around, especially in the en-
trance examinations and Judging from
early indications the effort is likely to
prove successful.
On the question of higher standard
there has been marked division among
the 12 members of the faculty for several
years, Dr. Raub standing out almost
alone in favor of requiring no entrance
examination worthy the name, a policy
which has done the college grave in
jury, though the fact has apparently
only just been discovered in local circles
The first step has been taken and it will
be hailed with qualification by the
friends of the institution throughout
the State who have always considered q
high standard at Delaware College
rather as utopian dream than feast.

sANp-DAMAGED OYSTERS.


The Maurice River Oyster Beds Ruined
to the Extent of $4,000, OOO---AIr. Aim
soow's Prediction Fulfilled.
The prediction made a week ago by
A. l.. Ainscow, and published in EVERY
EVENING at that time, in regard to the
probability of extreme damage done by
the storm to the Maurice Cove oyster
beds is more than fulfilled by later in
formation received from that place.
A Melville, N. j., dispatch of Sun
day says: Trustworthy reports from
the Maurice River Cove oyster grounds
are to the effect that the oysters have
been ruined to the extent of about
$2,000,000. Nearly two'thirds of the
oysters are dead, having been covered
up with sand and mud during the recent
storms. Others were killed by boreTs.
Many owners of oyster beds lose nearly
all, and some boats will be laid mp i'm
mediately for the season, as there are no
oysters left on their grounds. Several
owners in this city lose from $4,000 to
$4,000 each. The damage is worse than
has been known in the Cove for the past
10 years.
