Snle1 IHaglSIfatcS Mcklnloy ana Dole
Exchange Formal Visits.
Washington, Jan. 27.-President Nc
Kinley called yesterday afternoon on
President Dole, Of Hawaii, at the Ar
lington hotel President McKinley's
call was entirely formal, and did not

Funny Things We Hear and See.
A STANDING DISGRACE.


The roads leading to our city are stand
ing disgrace to our pc ,ple. The read o |
from Market street bridge to New Castle
and In fact to Hare's Corner Is something
awful to behold After all the money that
has been spent by the Levy Court on the
causeway 1t should by this timo have been
in better condition than 1t is now We
think 1T would be good thing for the
Levy Court to appropriate few hundred
dollars to place severa. car loads of broken
stone on it. which we think would be
money well spent. Even tho money tha5
has been wasted on Judge Balls stone pile
at New Castle would have paid for several
miles Of road which would be some credit
to the country.
Tho mud is four to six inches deep on
nearly every road leading out OF the city
and IL Is high time some effort was being
made to improve our coantry roais the
same as has been done in Delaware and
Chester county. The thousands upon
thousands of dollars which have been spent
by the county to pay county constables
could have been Used to great advantage
in bettering our roads Farmers should
themselves see that the roads arc put in
travelling condition during tho winter
months. Who will DO the first to move in
this matter? Or arc the farmers 80 dila-
tory that they do not caro- what kind of
roads they have to drive over to bring
their produce to our markets.

FOUR MEN DROWNED.
Tugboat Lost Her Tow and the Barge
Yonkers Went Down.

Yonkers Went Down.
New York. Jan. 27.-The towboat
Walter A. Luckenbach, which sailed
from Newport News last week, having
In tow the barges Yonkers and Halycon
: bound for Providence when off Barne-
gat last Sunday morning discovered
that the Yonkers had sunk. with the
four men on board.
The captain reported that at a. m.
Sunday he observed that the tug was
making better headway, and upon go
ing astern found the towline slack and
nothing attached to it. The Lucken-
bach at once turned about, and had just
started back in search of the two
barges when she nearly ran into tho
Halycon.
On the Halycon as little was known
about what had become of the Yonkers
as on the tug, she being far astern at
the end of a hundred fathoms of tow
line, and in the darkness she would be
hardly discernible. The men on the
Halycon, however. thought they saw
something dark rise in the air short
distance in front of them, and then dis
appear, but short time before the tug
came up. 1t Is supposed that the
Yonkers must have foundered in the
heavy sea raised by the strong gale
and gone down only aIeW moments
before the discovery of the parting Of
the towline, carrying with her the four
men composing her crew.
The Luckenbach, after the accident,
put into this port yesterday and re-
ported the loss to her owners and then
proceeded to Providence.

"Whc didn't" asked McVcy.
"You didn't" was the answer.
"You're liar, declared the chairman.
Tho roinarks were reiterated by the
quarrelers and It begun to look as If a
fight was imminent To cap the climax
some person on the opposite sids of the
room shouted: "sSit down, or I'll knock
you down with chair" Quiet eventually
was restored, and John e. Gray made d
speech in which lie said he thought the
Single Takers should be allowed to vote
for delegates. lie said they supported
Bryan and Sewall, Congressman Handy

A heated discu sion, which, could not be

OUR SPANISH VISITOR.
The Warship Vizcaya to Anchor in
American Ports.
AFoRMIDABLE MARINE MONSTER
The Vessel Is Larger, Faster and More
Powerful Than the United States
Reports All Quiet In Havana.

Inc Nessel Is Larger, FASTER and More
Powerful Than the United States
Steamer Maine-Consul General Lee
Reports All Quiet In Havana.
Washington, Jan. 27.-All the advices
received by the state department and
navy department from Cuba today were
satisfactory. General Lee last even
ing reported that all was quiet and or
der prevailed in Havana. AT about the
same hour a cablegram came to the
navy department from Captain Sigs-
bee, of the Maine, saying that general
interest was manifested on the arrival
of the Maine in Havana harbor, but
there had been no demonstration. FIe
had been ashore several times, Of
ficially, and had been received with the
greatest courtesy. He expected to visit
the palace today.
The information from Madrid that
the Spanish government had decided to
send the warship Vizcaya on a visit to
American ports caused no comments
in official circles. She is a formidable
craft, larger. faster and more power
full than. the Maine. The ship was
launched In 1891, cost $4,000, 900, and is
capable of 81 knots speed, while the
Maine is but liz knots. Altogether the
Vizcaya Is formidable ship.
Secretary Long, when informed Of the
proposed visit of the Vizcaya, said that
the Spaniards were perfectly welcome
TO come and go as they pleased, and as
far as he was concerned he would be
delighted to have them come. Span
ish warshiDs have frequently visited
the United States since the insurrec-
tionary movement broke out in Cuba
three years ago without having excited
the least unfriendly comment, and there
was no reason why any Significance
should be attached to their coming
again whenever they felt disposed to
do so. The Spanish flagship on this sta
tion took part in the ceremonies con-
rected with the dedication of the Grant
monument in New York about year
ago and also at the subsequent cele-
bration In Philadelphia last summer,
after which the Spanish admiral and his
staff visited Washington and paid their
respects to the president and the mem
bers of his cabinet. Secretary Long
said he recalled with pleasure the visit
of the party to the navy department
Secretary Sherman also said he saw
no reason why Spanish ships should not
visit the United States, and in fact he
would be glad If they did come. They
would be welcome.

MR.. DAWES DETERMINED

Affairs of Slngerly's Failed Bank.

Affairs of Slngerly's Failed Bank.
Philadelphia, Jan. 27.-Comptroller
Dawes, in Washington yesterday after
noon, made the following statement re-
garding the PENDING negotiations for
settlement of the affairs of the Chest
nut National bank:
In reference to the statement of the
managers of the plan I will say that
] cannot modify the conditions which 1
have imposed, as in my best Judgment
they are necessary to protect the peo-
pie of whose interests the law consti.
tutes me the guardian. cannot con-
sent to the plan unchanged, which
would legally endanger the claims
against the directors and stockholders"
When shown the above dispatch
Mr.. Earle said: Under no circum-
stances will we so on with the plan, If
the comptroller insists upon his latest
conditions"
1t is now believed that the comptroller
will at once move for a permanent re-
ceiver, and the liquidation will proceed
under the government.

Some merchants imagine that there Is
no use OF bidding for this Or that County
institution for furnishing supplies. That
iswhere they labor under mistake. The
writer has had occasion for several years
to b. present when bids were opened for
furnishing supplies to two of the County
Institutions and invariably the lowest and
best bidder received tho contract Whore
the TWO bids were alike in price then tho
older bidder was given the preference.
Then some bidders get mad because they
do not secure the contract and say things
that are not true, forgetting TINT they
would have another opportunity to bid
again in some future time.
The Almshouse gives out their contracts
for supplies every three months. while tho
Delaware Hospital for the Insane give
theirs out every six months. II there wis
any favorltism the writer could have an
opportunity of finding it out, rs the bids
ore opened and read before him. The bids
are lew-butthe supplies furnished are up
to the standard and care Is excrti: cd in
seeing that the bidder lives up to his con.
tract. Over sixty thousand dollars are
dlsbursed for supplies yearly for those two
institutions aud distributed among our
store keepers.

Fall River. Mass, Jan. 27.--Although
the striking frome spinners at the Iron
Works mill have no union, they are

Havana, Jan. 27.-In spite OF the opt.
mistic cable advices that are being for
warded to Madrid, it Is not believed
in political circles here that the Journey
of General Blanco through the east of
the Island will bring peace. Although
he carried about $lJ0.0OO with him when
he left Havana, no one believes that
any important leader will surrender.
The presumption is that he went in the
expectation Of meeting General Gomez.
Should he return without having in
duced the principal insurgent chiefs to
surrender autonomy. 1t is believed.
would be considered failure at Mad
rid
