sisters elsewhere In the United States,
are quick, deft, energetic and ambitions.
viii ana spirit work with brain and
hand to make the American wage-earn-
ing woman the most effective worker
Of her sex to be found anywhere upon
earth. They are so not because of pro-
lection, but in spite of it. Projection
only increases for them the cost of their
necessities, taxes them under the pre-
tence Of aiding some other wage-earners
less fortunate and effective, but really to
enrich the men that contribute to the
Republican campaign efund and insult
Delawareans with threats Of purchasing
the State.
Self-respactlng wage earners in Della
ware of either sex need no protection
from the tariff, and the energetic and
courageous women Of the State should
join fathers, brothers and lovers in re-
cetving with contempt the insulting offer
OF aid that no political party can give
aud no Congress has right to confer.

PIrrsBuEG, Pa, Oct. 23.-Thc rotten
financial concerns of this town suffered
another trying day. The chief interest
centred around the run upon George
NJ. Twins Syndicate, on Fourth ave-
nue.. Panic.strickcn depositors damned
the office all forenoon, ard from behind
desks piled high with cash Irwin and
his clerks paid all claims for while.
Twins troubles are of peculiar in
tercst in Philadelphia and that vicinity.
Residents of Manayunk are favored
with branch of his syndicate, which is
said to do considerable business there.
Whom Twins office opened this
morning crowd OF anxious people
filed in. There seemed to be more
money on his desk than there was yes
terday, and as fast as the depositnrs
came forward they were paid. Presently
the room was so crowded that the
police were obliged to keep the people
back. They pressed so closely upon MIR.
Irwin while he was counting out the
money that he finally told them that if
they would not keep back he would
stop paying them. The doors were then
closed, and those inside were paid
before any more were allowed to enter.
DEPOSITS OF 3 100000.
The run continued until after dinner,
when Mr.. Irwin announced that Il would
be impossible to make any further pay
ments, as the banks had refused TO
honor the drafts he made on them. 1t
is said he had fully $l,OGO,0OO of de-
posts in the syndicate He stated tn
the impatient crowds that as soon as he
could get the money in shape he would
resume paying. No suits have yet been
brought against him.
LOOKING FOR A BAIL JUMPER.
William +. Delaney, the manager of
the Public Grain and Stock Exchange.
who forfeited his bail yesterday, will be
arrested as soon US he can be located.
Five new informations are pending
against him, each charging conspiracy

G. H. Delaney, brother OF the miss
ing man, and one at the defendants.
surrendered to the police at noon To-.
day, giving himself up on new charges
that were entered this morning. MIR.
Delaney said his brother Henry would
be in latter to surrender.
Concerning his missing brother, G. II.
Delaney said: ale is attending to some
business affairs. He is still in Pittsburg,

Snow HILL, Nd, Oct. 23.-The Octo.
Der term Of court for Worcester county
was begun yesterday with Judges Hoi-
land and Lloyd on the bench. h. Ii.
Dryden of Pocomoke City, was ap.
pointed foreman of the grand Jury.
Judge Holland delivered the charge 10
the grand jury. There are 50 cases ON
the appearance docket, on appeals, 30
on judiclals, so on trials docket and /
case on reference docket. There will
be probably Il shortterm Of court, owing
to disposition to continue cases on &C.
count of the new Court House not being
completed. Court is now being held in
McAllen's Hall. Two vacant shanties
on Market street are used by the grand
and petit juries. Such a condition Of
things is decidedly announcement, and it
will he q great relief to Judges, iuries
and all persons who arc attending court
when the day of adjournment is reached.
There are but two prisoners in jail, and
1t is not thought to be probable that
many bills will be found by the grand
Jury,

Scattered over this State in perhaps
half score of villages are factories Of
one sort or another employing from 20
to 100 young women at wages above
the average of those paid to women in
the occupations hitherto open to their
sex. Some Of these factories make shirts,
some make berry boxes or crates, and
some can fruits or vegetables. In every
such factory the machinery necessary
to the work is Of the latest ana most
effective pattern, and in all each of The
young women employed earns in pro.
portion to what she, with the aI Of
the machinery, can produce. In no
other country on earth do women thus
employed earn such wages as are paid
10 these young women of Delaware, the
daughters and sisters of other wage
earners who suffer naught by the com
petition Of this comparatively new force
in Our industries. Had such industries
eenintroduced here forty years ago the
grandmothcrs Of these young women
must have worked for far smaller WAGES
than the women wage-carncrs Of to-day
receive.
1t is the habit Of Republicans to
ascribe the building up of all industries
to the benetlcent influence Of d protcc.
tive tariff. We're the facts set forth
above presented to Republican, his
prompt reply would be: 10 the bless.
iGgs Of protection" As matter of fact
protection had nothing more to do with
the evolution Of these industries which
have brought hope into thousand
Delaware homes, tGan with the changes
OF the moon or the procession of the
equlnoxeS. Young women in Delaware
to-day earn more than their grand.
mothers could have earned sixty wears
ago because steam aud electricity, ana a
hundred ingenious mechanical devices
have been called to the aid Of industry.
Young women in Delaware earn more
than women in like traIesabraad, partly
because we have higher standard of
living than the people Of the old worl,!,
partly because our population is less
dense than that Of the old world, parity
because We use machinery more fully
and effectively than any other people
on earth, and partly because women

The cause of these frequent changes to

about July 18th, and have sunk nearly

A Disortieriy Republican Calls the Speaker
IL Liar lit the Democratic Massneeting
and Is Promptly Arrested.
While the Hon. james Il. Gordon of
New York was addressing large and
enthusiastic Democratic massmeetng III
the Academy of Music saturday night, he
had OCCASION to refer to the obnoxious lea
lures OF the Mckinley Tariff bill and gave
the figures 10 prove the truth of his asssr-
ton. just hs he had made statement to
the audience in regard to the tariff Thomas
w. Knox, II Republican, who was standing
back near the street door, shouted out at
the top of his voice YOU'RE u liar" In
stautly there came cries of Put him out;
Put him out" Municipal Court Clerk
Samuel 5. Adams, Jr., who was standing
near the man who created the disorder, at
once placed him under arrest and handed
him over 10 a special officer, VINO in turn
surrendered him to Sergeant Shields. lie
was taken to the patrol booth at Tenth
and Orange streets from which point lie
was sent to the City Hall.
II is probably fortunate for Knox that
an officer was present To take him in Gus
tudy, or he might have been pretty severely
dealt with. IFS ungentlemanly and lis
orderly remark was heard all over the
theatre, and was made in grossly insult.
ing manner.
The speaker was not Mt all embarrassed
by the insulting remark, although there
was considerable confusion in the hots :
for time After the confusion had sub
sided Mr.. Gordon brought forth ire
menduons round Of applause by the state
mtnt that he was TOO busy killing the
Republican dog TO ply any attention to
the ileLs on his back" A little later on in
the evening, after Mr.. Gordon had made
more extensive remarks on the Mckinley
bill, be asked, Now is there amy other
sweet scented Republican geranium pres
ent that would like To call me Il liar on
this statement
When he learned that the man had been
taken to the hall, Mr.. Gordon was not
anxious to prosecute him for his disorderly
conduct, thinking that he was drunk when
he made the remark. When informed
that he was perfectly sober aud was not at
all under the influence of liquor, MIR. Cor
don was satisfied To allow Judge Ball TO
settle the young hoodlum's case.
When Knox was arraignea in munich
| pal court on Monday he entered plea oil
guilty. Sergeant Shields. Sewell Scott and
Salnncl 5. Adams, Jr,, all testified to hear
| ing Knox make the indecent remark.
Judge Ball, i'll passing sentence. informed
| the culprlt that 1t was u remark no decent,
respectable man would make, no matter
what political party lie belonged to. For
a man to go Into II political meeting to
| insult the speaker was us bad as man
| going into crowded theatre and yelling
tire at the top of his voice. lii either case
he should be severely dealt with. He was
sorry that the law providing punishment
| for disorderly conduct was inadeq late for
the offence. He then gave Knox the ex.
IRENE penalty, which is $40 and costs.
