DOVER, Del, Nov. 2.-THE Suns story
of the manner in which the sorry gang,

Scharpes against Republican voters, has
been largely commented on here to-day.

When the attention OF Attorney 1en-
eral White was called to Clerk licksons
procedure. he plainly stated tina the
clerk had no legal right to thus Issue
summons.
In addition to the Clark case Il rumor
was current last night that an ellort
would be made to hatch upa charge OF
attempt bribery against the Republican
.hrievaty candidate, John B. Wharton.
The runor could not be verified, and
the scheme may fall through, as some OF
the more respectable Democrats have, 1t
is understood, called a halt on the
methods the Claw building gang are
irving to inaugurate.
There are those, however, who are in a
position to know. who openly state that
before the pol = close in Kent county

WILL BE MUSTERED OUT.
War Department Decides to Leave
Delaware Unrepresented in the
United states Volunteers.

Horace Greeley Knowles received a dis
patch Yesterday afternoon from the War
Department at Washington, which con-
tanned the glad tidings that the First
Battalion, First Delaware Regiment,
now at Camp Meade, Middletown, Pa,
would be mustered out of service.
As soon as Mr.. Knowles was apprised
of this decision on the part OF the War
Department he informed number OF
persons and his office was soon thronged
with a number OF joyful women who
have been wishing for the return of their
husbands for months.
As the matter now stands, Delaware
will not be represented in the United
States Volunteers, as this order takes the
last battalion representing this State out
OF service.
1t also deprives Col Walter H. Gordon
of the najorship Of the battalion, as he
had been commissioned to take command
of it while it WAS to be on garrison duty
in Cuba.
The news OF the mastering out OF this
battalion was received in divers ways,
some contending that it should have
been kept in service and Others that the
order was a just one.
1t is expected that the First Battalion,
which comprises about 400 men, will re-
turn to Wilmington on Monday of next
week
Under an order issued by Col. Walter
II. Gordon, the roll call OF the First and
Second Battalions of the First Delaware
Regiment will take place at the a,lnory,
Thirteenth and Orange streets, at ll.3O
O'Clock next Monday morning, instead Of
8 O'Clock, as under the original order.
The purpose OF the change in the time is
to give the Kent and Sussex members
OF the battalions an opportunity to come
up on Monday morning and still be in
time for the roll call; whereas if 9 O'Clock
bad continued the hour they would have
had to come to Wilmington on Saturday
night in order TO be here in time.
After the roll has been called on Mon
day the physical examinations OF the
men will be begun. The War Depart
ment will send one or two physicians
here to assist DR.. J. L. France, the regi-
mental surgeon. The men will continue
on duty until November 10th, by which
time it is expected everything will be
ready for their final payment and muster
out
