What is claimed to be the fastest
voyage for tank vessel is that of the
British steamer Delaware, Capt. I.
Thomas, which arrived on Monday from
Bristol, Eng. She made the run to
Point Breeze and began loading inside
of IL days. Her trip up the Delaware
bay and river was also quick one, tine
time occupied being only seven hours.
The distance covered on tho voyage was
3, 200 miles. Her average speed was IL
knots an hour and her best days run
was 304 miles. On each of two other
days she covered 300 miles. She had
good weather with the exception of two
days, when she experienced easterIy
gales. Capt. Thomas, who has been in
command of the Delaware since she
was built, three years ago, reports hav-
ing a spendid view of the northern
lights on Saturday night, when his

Register in Chancery Colen Ferguson,
of New CASTLE county, whose term will
expire next May, is candidate for re
appointment. Alfred p. Crockett OF
Middletown, ia an applicant for the
position.
James Whalen is candidate for the
position of sergeant alarms of the
lower house of the General Assembly.
Democratic and Republican candi-
dates for the Levy Court in Kent
county have received certificates of
election, and the courts will probably
be called upon to decide the matter
1t is said that, while the votes cast
for James G. Shaw and James g. Shaw,
Sr., in Sussex county were counted
separately, they were considered as for
James G. Shaw, but this will not elect
him unless the votes for James G..
Shaw, ST., are given to him in the other
two countios.
Ex.State Senator W. M. Ross of Sea-
ford is candidate for State Treasurer
Chancellor John r. Nicholson, who
has been prominently mentioned as the
probable Democratic United States
Senator to be elected by the coming
Legislature has announced that he was
not candidate.
Union Republicans in Sussex county
will probably make contest upon the
returns on the ground OF fraud by some
of the voters assistants who were
selected by the Republican party. The
Union Republicans allege that the men
spoiled a number Of ballots. They claim
also that the voters assistants properly
belonged to the Union Republican
ri no ono IF tho IN "a rripripul raiitt
cal parties.
Some of the Union Republicans are
exceedingly angry because Joseph
Gould, Jr., did not receive an sppoint-
ment as deputy sheriff. He was the
candidate OF that faction OF the party
and the followers of Addicks endeavored
to have him appointed.
Walter H. Hayes and III. II. Ward,
as counsel for Union Republicans, may
shortly apply to the superior court In
this county for mandamus to compel
the Kent board of canvass to count the
returns which were presented to ii.
Should a favorable decision be secured
from the court the board of canvass
could be compelled to reasonable and
count the vote. In that event il the
Republicans had the highest vote there
could be no question as to what men
the certificates of election belonged.
There has been decision, however, that
the court has no power over board
of canvass after 1t has adjourned, but
1t is held that this board had not com
pleted its work and could not, therefore,
properly adjourn. Should the court
refuse the application the Republicans
may still contest the election of the
Legislators before the respective houses
OF the General Assembly. Candidates
for county offices may move through
court for recount,
