MOROCCO FACTORY ENLARGEMENT.
A Large Annex to r. Eiunaenthai & Co.'s
Plant to be Built.


F. Blumenthal s. Co., morocco manu-
facturers at Lancaster avenue and Mon
roe street, have decided to enlarge their
plant and will erect a two-storied brick
addition with frontage of ITO feet and
depth of 40 feet.
The plans were prepared by Architect
Frank r. Carswell A. 5. Reed &
Brother Company have been awarded
the contract for erecting the annex and
are to have ID completed by March 25th.
The building will cost $4,000. 1t will
front on Reed street; and extend from
Adams street to near Monroe, where 1t
will meet the main structure. Its first
wall will he 81 inches thick and It's
second-story wall 10 inches thick. The
walls will be made of that thickness
with the expectation of continuing the
addition to height of five stories, all of
which will be of brick. Before the
second story is finished it may be found
necessary to proceed at once with the
erection of the other three stories. The
new building will be partly used as a
storehouse. On the ground floor there
will be additional lines.
Manager Patzowsky and Assistant
Manager Sparrow stated yesterday
that the enlargement is necessitated by
the company's increasing business. The
factory is running at full capacity and
employs 700 persons. At an early date
the working force will have to be IN.
creased. The two-storled addition will
permit of tine employment of 100 more
men,

DEAD Along THE RIVER BANK.
Mysterious Death of An Unknown Mar
at Grubb's Landiug-Body Revealed by
the Tide.

Mysterious Death of An Unknown Man
at Grubb's Landing-Body Revealed by
the Tide.
The body of an unknown man, APP
parently about 60 years old, with full
beard and hair partially grey, was found.
lying along the river bank at Grubb's
Landing, Sunday afternoon, with a
bullet hole in his head. The bullet had
left large wound in the forehead, and
death was evidently instantaneous.
The body was discovered by Robert
Butler, flagman employed by the p,
the edge of the river bank, and az the
tide went out it revealed the form of the
unknown man.
1t is supposed that the man committed
suicide. A large revolver, with one
empty chamber was found on the bank
few feet from the body. Deputy
Coroner Palmer removed the remains 10
the morgue. The stranger is feet 81
inches in height and weighs about 145
pounds. He was evidently German.
He was dressed in o navy blue suit Of
clothes, and had on heavy woolen
underclothing and stockings. He wore
a sweater over his undergarment and
over that was new fine shirt. He had
on large polka-dot tie and plain lay
down collar. He wore a dark brown
overcoat, new lace shoes and felt hat.
His clothing was of good quality, and
the deceased was evidently German
merchant
There were found on his person two
German coins, the denomination of 10
marks, and five centimes in French
coin. Two new pocketbooks were found
upon his clothes, neither of which con-
tanned money. An envelope bearing the
stamp Of the German consul in Phila-
delphia and addressed to Franz Raab,
Jewish Foster Home and Orphanage,
Mill and Chew streets, Germantown,
was also found on his clothing, which
would indicate that "Raab" might pos
sibly be the dead mans name, although
his identity has not been established.
The fact that two empty pocket-books
were found on his clothing, and in con-
sideration of the appearance of the
stranger, who is possibly a merchant,
has given rise to the suspicion of foul
play. The coroner is investigating the
/ case.

The Pugilist to be Proceeded Against for
Taking Unlawful Possession of Another
Mans House.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Jan. GA special
to the Tribune from Jacksonville, Fla,
says:
"Unless James J. Corbett puts up
5000 to-day he will be arrested ON a
charge of burglary" said Chris Meyer,
a wholesale merchant and shipowner
last night. "He and his gang have
broken into my cottage at Mayport,
damaged the walls and furniture, and |
propose to have satisfaction or put the
man in jail.
Mr.. Meyer was angry. His cottage at
Mayport Is one of the prettiest there
and is well furnished. Two or three
days ago he heard that he had Corbett
for tenant. He was surprised and yes
terday went out to investigate. He
walked into the door he had left locked
several weeks ago and found whole
crowd lounging on his sofas and in his
arm chairs.
"Well, | like this" he said, address
ing no one in particular. "When rent
n house l generally give my tenant the
key"
Then he walked out again and took
an inventory of the damages. One door
had been forced open, two or three
window shutters torn from their fasten-
ings and the furniture was, as he put it,
fused up awful"
Then the irate man had an interview
with Brady, Corbett's manager, in
which he demanded 500 for rent and
$500 for damages. Brady tried to throw
the responsibility on Archie Harmon,
president of the Mayport road, saying
he had told them it was all right to GO
in and take possession. This Mr.. Har-
mon denied.
"I'll sue out an attachment for $500
and levy on Corbett's training outfit,
said Mr.. Meyer Il shall also swear Out
warrant charging him with burglary
If he will not settle I'll have him ar.
rested. l have retained Judge Gibbons
as my attorney. He has similar claim
against Corbett and his party, as they
broke into his house. The officer witt
the warrants will leave for Mayport a

People who have been watching the
work of the Atlas steam dredgers on the
Christiana bank say that it is most in
teresting and curious spectacle to see the
quantity of mud taken up at one bite by
the capacious jaws of the dredge. At
one bite thick compact mass Of loan
three tons in weight is cut out from the
mud bottom and slung over on land. A
total of 81 of these bites is made by the
machines each hour, and they work for
seven hours each day. 1t is said such a
spectacle of wilderness of mud as the
dredges have left behind them as they
finish up the bank has never been seen
here before and is we'll worth visit by
those curious for such spectacles.
