Tho Wilmington and New Castle
Electric Railway Company owes a duty to
the public which it's called upon TO fulfill
On Saturday night several young men
from Wilmington boarded one Of the
company's cars. There were n other
passengers aboard No sooner had the
conductor commenced to take up the fares
than some OF the men began TO curse and
otherwise act disorderly. The glass in the
front Of the car was broken, the motor
man assaulted and interfered with-even
overpowercd SO that one pinned him fast
with the brake while another held the
motor
Tho men are known and it Is the duty
OF the Company to have all hands arrest.
cd. Good order must be obtAinsd on the
cars and special officer should be em-
ployed to ride over and back on the cars
when the travel is heavy.

The band concerts yesterday afternoon
and evening at Rogers Park were listened
to by about 1000 persons at each concert.
The electric storm on Friday night had
demOlishing effect on the electric lights
The result is that the New Castle people
are without light in several sections of tho
city. OF course it is not fair to criticise
the electric light company for every little
thing, but still two days should bo sutii'
cicnt time to put the system in working
order.
The police one time kept tab on the gas
lights to see how long each light failed to
burn. One gas light did not interfere SO
much with travel as the lamps were close
to each other but it is different now with
the electric lights. We were promised
better system of lighting for our city |
Then give it to us. We have to pay more
taxes or rather more money goes for the
lights and less to clean the offensive gut
tiers and bitches.

TARIFF DEBATE NEARLY ENDED.
The Senators May Complete Their
Work This Week.

" OfR lnIS w eek.
Washington, June 2S.-The Republic
can tariff managers are still hopeful
that the present may prove to be the
last week of the tariff debate in the
senate. All the schedules have been
gone over once, leaving nothing to be
done but to consider the paragraphs
in the various schedules which have
been passed when reached in their
regular order because of differences Of
opinion among the Republicans them
selves.
Many of these differences have been
adjusted in the Republican ranks, but
the Democrats will naturally take ad-
vantage Of their knowledge of the feel
ing existing among their opponents to
debate some of the questions at length.
1t is understood now that coal, leather,
hides and lead ore will each be vigor-
ously discussed, as will also the ques-
tions, though more briefly, Of reclproc-
ity, the treatment of trusts and tn.
disposition Of the Hawaiian reciprocity
treaty.
In view Of the determination of the
Democrats to exploit all these ques-
tlons, and others as well, it would
seem impossible to conclude the sem
ate's work on the bill before the end
of the week, and it is more than prob
able that the final work will be reserved
for the following week.
The house will continue this week
its policy Of adjournment from Mon
day until Thursday. After that its
course will depend on the action Of
the senate. II by any chance vote
should be had on the tariff bill We'd
nesday or Thursday the house prob
ably will remain in session to receive
the bill, disagree to the senate amend
ments. and appoint confereres. Other
wise an adjournment will be had from
Thursday to Monday.

A NEW YORK MURDER Mystery
Portions of Body Found In the
Water and on Land.

NdteF anu Ou lduus
New York, June 2S.-The lower part
of the trunk of man was found by
two boys In the woods at One Hundred
and Seventy-sixth street and Under
cliffe avenue yesterday. 1t was ter
ribly mutilated and shows plainly that
a murder has been committed. 1t was
wrapped In oil cloth and MANILA pa
per, exactly as was the upper part Of
trunk found in the East river off
Eleventh street Saturday. The two are
parts of the same body. The two pieces
were found more than eight miles
apart, one in the water and the other
on land. The part found yesterday
comprised the lower part of the trunk
from the fifth rib to the hips, the legs
having been severed from the body at
the hip joints. The upper portion of the
body was already in the morgue, and ii
was terribly hacked with knife wounds.
The two portions of the butchered
trunk having been found in such wide
ly separated localities, the police are
puzzled in forming theory as to where
the dreadful work Of murder and
butchery was committed. The police
are also wondering in what spot the
limbs Of the corpse will be found. They
think they will turn up in some place
before long, but do not think it likely
that the head will ever be found. They
think the murderer has either buried
1t or burned it in a furnace in order to
keep secret the identity of his victim.
This would hardly be done, however,
unless the identity Of the murdered
man would easily lead to the identity
of the murderer
No surgical skill was employed in
dismembering the body. On the breast
of the trunk large piece of the flesh
had been hacked away. This may have
been done to prevent identification by
means of tattoo marks. The murder
was possibly done on board of a vessel,
but if this was the case some portion
of the body would hardly have been
placed on land and the other in the
water.

COST OF THE JUBILEE.


Honoring Queen Victoria.
London, June 2S.-With Saturdays
naval review off Spithead the jubilee
festivities practically ended. 1t was
the biggest week any country ever saw.
The ceremonies and decorations cost
the British public not less than 10000
O00 while the loss of business by small
tradesmen is estimated at IS, ,0o0, 900,
and the cost to the government of en-
tertaining guests and doing Its share
is not less than SS,OOO,OOO.
The naval review is conceded to have
been the most splendid demonstration
Of the kind ever witnessed. The Prince
of Wales, representing her majesty re-
viewed a magnificent fleet Of foreign
warships, representing all the mari
time nations of the world the proudest,
strongest and swiftest of these craft
being the United States armored cruis-
er Brooklyn, flying the flag of Rear Ad u.
miral Miller. The prince also inspected
about so miles of British warships, in
which were 1G6 fighting ships Of differ
ent classes, carrying about 900 heavy
guns, manned by over $4,000 men, and
of about 500, 600 tons in ALL

Hank Burglars Uso ElectrIcity.

Cleveland, June 2S.-Burglars re-
sorted to a novel scheme to open a
bank safe at Chagrin Falls, this coun-
ty, Saturday night. They entered the
bank of Rogers & Son, some time early
in the evening. They had previously
attached wire to the trolley line of
the electric railway. This wire was run
through an alley, over transom and
to the safe. Another wire attached to
the rail of the street car track was
brought into the bank. At the ends of
these wires were carbon points. With
these carbOns an attempt was made
with the arc light thus formed to melt
the knob Of the combination. The ex-
pertinent worked all right, and the
knob had beSn nearly melted away
when the current was shut off shortly
after midnight. The burglars then gave
up the task. The thieves had even
gone to the trouble of placing a little
pile of sand under the knob for the
molten metal to fall on and thus avoid
setting fire to the floor.
