WE BUILD TROLLEY CARS
Shipments Being Made This
Week From Wilmington.
AND THEY'RE ALL UP TO DATE

Electric and Cable Cars Now Being Com
pIeted, Ready for Shipment. This Week,
to New England Cities and Western
Towns-Incressing Demand [for Them
Everywhere.
"Msny people moving about the city
all day do not know that trolley and
cable cars are built in Wilmington
that, are finer than the finest they
ride upon out Delaware avenue. said a
leading business man to an EVENING
JOURNAL reporter this morning, "but
those are facts. The luxuriant coaches
for the railway service that are turned
out from the shops of the Pullman, Jack.
son and Sharp and Harlan and Holl ngs-
worth Company are not the only artistic
products of Wilmington in the way Of
rolling stock.
You know the demand now seems to
be for more rapid transit by means Of
fast cable and electric railway cars, and
whenever these vehicles Of modern
adoption are run outside the limits of q
city, that city is rapidly building up and
has to extend its limits. Thus to cope
with this growing demand our manu-
facturers have had to put in the neces-
sary machinery and material for the
manufacture Of these modern carriages. q"
Can Average One Day.
1t was found by visit to the extern
sive plant Of the Delaware Car Works,
better known as the Jackson and Sharp
Company. that when there is rush of
orders they can turn out one street car

than half dozen all ready for the finish.
ing touches and others upon which the
final exterior decorations were drying In
he paint shop and they will be about
ready to go tomorrow.
When an order for street railway cars
is being worked upon this firms present
small force of 800 men cannot turn out
many cars In the railroad day coach de-
partment as so many of the skilled
builders and painters are needed for this
smaller rolling stock.
VIII Ship Trolley Cars Tomorrow.
Since this firm began the work OF
manufacturing electric, and cable cars to
meet the growing demand, about forty
"trolleys" have been constructed, on the
latest pattern, for Long Island service
alone Now the cars are being put NJ
for points much further away.
Tomorrow ten fne new electric cars
will be sent of on gondolas to Potts
Vile, Pa, and Hartford, Conn. These
cars are probably better than the oroi-
nary or average Wilmington street car
there being several points Of difference
in their construction. Some are painted
q rich yellow, some almost white anC
others Of entirely different hues.
Within the past month shipments
of electric Gears have been made

BUSINESS MEN FAVOR IT.
THE PLAN FOR ENLARelNG THE
PULLMAN CAR WORKS.

What Some of Oar Leading Merchants
say-The Good of Many the Result
OF Any Improvement - Manufactures
Wanted to Employ Our Resident Work
TinR People and Increase Population.
The plan suggested and put on foot
by the Wilmington Improvement Com
pany looking toward the enlargement
of the Pullman Palace Car Company 8
plant In this city, has met with the
heartiest commendation of business men
generally. Said a prominent Market
street merchant to an EVENING JOURNAL
reporter this morning:
''Such action as this is Just what the
Improvement Company was organized
for We are an enterprising people and
there isn't a resident of Wilmington
who isn't eager to see our beautiful city
thrive Manufactures are what build
any place up. They bring additions to
our population. and that means the sale
of more provisions, clothing and the
hundred and one necessities and luxuries
of life. It means the bringing Of money
here, and it means the spending OF
money here What we want is more
manufacturers, to give employment to
our resident population, aud to draw
reinforcements from other places.
Another we'll know business mar
and property owner said: 'There seems
to be mistake about this invitation ex
tended to tn PullmRns 1t isn't for q
moment believed that the company
could be induced to withdraw its plant
from Pullman, ILL.,, to this city. while
that would be Just the thing we world
like, it would SAVIOR a little too mucl
of the millennium to be true What WI
want, however. what we think we are
entitled to, and what we believe and
hopel We can secure, is the material en-.
largement of the work. now here, say Il

lists, but who will be as loyal to theil
employers as the present force has shoWI
itself. In the event of a reply beinl
received from the parent company tina
the invitation of the Improvement Com
pany has made a favorable impression
our citizens should get together ant
take such action to back up the worl
already started, as will result in tn
attainment Of the desired end. We ar
all interested. Every dollar put in cir
culation here mesnss portion of tina
dollar to each resident of the city, di
rectly and indirectly"
No answer has been received, as YET
from the Pullman Company officials. no
is one expected before next week. Their
exists belief, however, among thos
who have taken an active interest In tn
matter, that the company will give th
invitation careful consideration and tina
the result will accrue to the benefit Q

Amateur Anrlers Are sehemsrs.

According to reports from up the
country, a new plan has been adopted
by the Reading fishermen, who have
been several times caught in Illegal acts
along the Brandywine, up In Chester
county. They come down the Whining
ton and Northern railroad until a point
just beyond Granogue or over the state
line is reached, and here they pitch their
tents. Then these connlving fellows
creep up into Pennsylvania to the good
fishing grounds and here violate the law
by catching fish, and return to Delaware
Then on Monday morning they can take
train for home after a stay Of two
days. Bass and other fish are being
caught in large quantities in this
