two more fortunate drivers cared for their
friend, whom they believed to BIO only
unconscious. Every effort was made to
revive tho man, but when DR.. John
Palmer arrived he declared that death had
been instantaneous.
The deceased had been in the employ of
the Ice company since boyhood and was
one of the best drivers
The crossing responsible for the mans
tragic death is almost impossible in bad
weather
The city made some repairs to it last
summer but instead of lettering it made
it worse in that the centre Of the street is
foot higher than either gutter. This
condition allows water to flow in such
way that the stream is widened and in
cold weather ice is formed from the gutter
to almost tho stone which marks the
street intersection. Had it not been for
this condition Worrall would not have
been KILLED As it was his horses slipped
on the ice frightened and the remainder
has been told The animals ran to Sixth
and DUPONT streets before captured.
Deputy Coroner Chandler, has charge
of the body and will hold an inquest
probably tomorrow

The packers complain about the scarcity
Of stock, There were only few oysters
in market yesterday, and these readily
brought As cents per bushel. Few boats
come to the Crlsheld market at present.
and it may be safely stated that one no use
could have handled all the oysters that
have bren brought here during the past
two weeks, The packers want OYSTERS
so there is a demand without supply.
Some of the packers, not being able 10
plant oysters in Maryland are planting
all their shells in Virginia. The Tawes
Brothers have planted 10000 bushels in
that State this winter, If the packers in
general pursue this policy they will soon
have enough oysters from their own beds
to supply their trade.
The shuckers, of whom there are about
eight hundred in Crlsheld, are barely
able to make both ends meet. At present
they will not average So per week. They
feel the depression in business more than
