Resolved, That T. Wesley Mcbride
came to his death in Wilmington hun
dred. and Jennie E. Mcbride came TO

dred. on December "a, 1897, from in
iuries received by being accidentally
struck by the second section of train
No. rs. of the Philadelphia, Whining
ton and Baltimore Railroad Company
ait Stanton, the train being two hours

opinion the crossing at Stanton should

be both day and night to raise and

no other duty, thereby affording great
er protection to the travelling public.

KNOCKS THE BOTTOM OUT OF A
MORNING PAPERS STORY.
The Sun this morning printed a story
stating that the p, w. & B. Railroad
Company had paid to Carrie Mcbride
something less than $1,000 for the
death of her father and mother. and
for the injuries she herself sustained
at the Stanton crossing accident.
William T. Lyman, attorney who rep
resents the Mcbride interests, was ask
ed by an Evening Journal reporter
this morning as to the verify of the
statement. He replied by denying the
whole thing. mo money has been
asked, none has been rendered, and
none received on account of any Of the
Deaths" he said. The girl could not re-
ceive any, because she is a minor. and
no settlement made by her would be
binding. The first step in her case
would be the appointment of a guard
ian. TO look after her interests, and that
step has not been taken. The admin
istrators of the estate of the dead
father and mother have neither settled
the matter nor entered suit, and the
railroad company has made them no
tender"
