BRlCkLAYERS WALK OUT.
THEY REFUSE TO WORK WITH
CHARLES GALLAGHER.
The Latter Puts the Unions Sec
retary to Flight With
Brickbats.

A half dozen bricklayers employed
on the Ochsner building, adjoining the
Postoffice on K street, are on strike,
and as only two men were at work
yesterday progress was slow.
The source of the trouble, according
to the strikers, dates back a couple Of
years. About that time two bricklay-
ers, Starr and Hanson, were injured
while at work on a wall at Ruhstaler's
! brewing plant They We're employed
by Contractor Lucas Kreuzberger, who
now has the contract for the Ochsner
building.
The Bricklayers' Union gave a benefit
ball for the two injured men, and-so
say the strikers-some of the tickets
We're turned over to Charles Gallagher,
! Kreuzbergers brOther-inlaW. Gal
| lagher, it is said. disposed of tickets
to the value of $91, and failed to turn
| the proceeds over to the union. He
was finally induced, the strikers say, to
| give his note for the amount, but as the
note has never been paid, the sum
named therein has hung over Cal
| lagher's head in the form of fine, or
! biack-mark, which, it is said, practi-
cally suspends him while the money re-
mains unpaid
The strikers say they had no objec-
ton to Gallagher's acting as foreman
or superintendent of the job, so long as
| he left the wall alone, but when he
went to work laying brick they pro-
| tested. The Secretary of the union was
| deputed to call on Gallagher and ask
| him to desist, but the latter, it is al
| legged, took offense, struck the Secre-
| tary and then drove him from the
building with brick bats.
1t was then that the bricklayers
walked out. Mr.. Kreuzberger, it is un-
derstood, declined to take Gallagher
away from the wall, and the contractor
and Gallagher We're the only two men
at work yesterday. A warrant was
sworn out for the arrest of Gallagher,
charging him with having committed
battery on the Secretary of the union.
| 1t is stated that suit has also been
commenced to compel payment Of the
note
The trouble began on Friday, and it
was supposed the breach between
! kreuzberger and the men would be
! closed at once. Yesterday, however,
there was a renewal of the trouble. and
a large crowd of people gathered at
the site of the new building, attracted
| by some sort of commotion. 1t was
merely a wordy controversy, however,
| between Kreuzberger and the strikers,
| but a half dozen police officers gath
cred there in case there should be an
| outbreak of violence.
| It is reported that Kreuzberger has
! secured, or will secure, men from out
side of Sacramento to work on the
| building.

Into Grape Sugar as Nature Does It.
Starch "a Carbohydrate is passed
out Of the stomach into the duodenum
or second stomach and there treated by
the pancTeatic juices, when in time a
microscopic fungi is grown from part
of the grain. Of that has been eatan,)
and these elements with moisture, heat
and time. transform the starch into
grape-sugar, which is the first act Of
digestion.
The processes are duplicated in an
artificial or mechanical way in the
manufacture Of Grape-Nuts, the new
breakfast food made by the Postum
Cereal Co, Linn, of Battle Creek, Mich.
In this food one finds the delicate.
sweet taste of grape-sugar and when
eaten it will be found TO quickly digest
and fatten and strengthen the entire

THE action of the Street and Sewer
Department in actually condemning a
contractor for his dilatoriness in filling
a contract came with such momentuous
surprise as to cause the public to be
solicitious of the Departments condi-
ton. The Street and Sewer Commission
is a body distinctly alone, SO far as
absolute independence from the people
is concerned. 1t makes and unmakes,
does and undoes, at this time and for
all time, without the slightest considera-
ton for the welfare Of the public. Such
las been its record. Undesirable ordin-
ances without number. Failure to in
stitute reforms indicated by the people,
such as was shown to be needed in the
case of the Market street causeway. So
in the face of this record, the final effort
on the part of the Commissioners to
champion the peoples cause and have
the removal of ashes enacted with
alacrity is surely commendable. There
would seem to be guide time coming"

CONSUL WILBoUR of Dublin, Ireland,
writes that he has had inquiries for
American houses handing superpht e..
pilates, gnanos, basic Stag, bone manures
and other chemical fertilizers. They
want to know the price of goods per 100
and per 900 tons free on board at such
Irish ports as Ballina, Galway, Sligo and
Westport, all on the western coast of
Ireland. The percentages of phosphates,
etc, should be given, and the origin of
the phosphates should also be stated.
Perhaps in no other State according to
its size is manufactured as much
phosphate goods as in Delaware. From
Brandywine hundred to Delmar may be
found mills both large and small which
turn out thousands of tons of fertilizers.
Neighboring states are furnished with
immense quantities by Delaware firms.
There is no reason why Delaware manu-
facturers of phosphate should not desire
to cultivate this branch of trade to the
extent OF foreign shipments. The quality
OF the local product is commended in the
domestic market. A chance for foreign
commentator and subsequent financial
Improvement now presents itself. Della
ware manufacturers Of phosphates should
send the Consul prices of their goods free
on board at the ports mentioned, and he
will have them brought to the notice of
lnqnirers.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY is very much in
terested in the various Senatorial con-
tests that will be brought to head with
the beginning of the new year. As
rule new Senators are an aversion to an
Administration. They want much and
expect more. They feel the importanc.
of their position, and seek to have every
body else do likewise. They are sensi-
tive if not fully appreciated up to the
standard they place on themselves, and
both exacting and aggressive if more
than passing attention is extended to
their demands. They want everything
undone that was done at the instance of
their predecessors. They are hardly in
possession of their notification of election
when they begin building for second
term. This, it is supposed, would be es-
pecally the case with Delaware. George
Gray has been long in the service and to
tear down what he has builded would
require active and persistent hustling
This would mean hunting the Admins
t'ation at every step.

There is being organized in New York

known to be at the bottom of the sea.
Somewhere in the Delaware Bay lies
the DeBraak, vessel which was lost in
1898, and which had on board gold,
silver and precious stones valued at
somewhere between $l0,000,OOO and
$25, 100000. Wrecking companies within
a couple of years have spent over $500, 600
in endeavoring to locate the treasure, but
without success. 1t is understood that tho
company will at first make a search for
