QUITE fight was in progress in
Dover yesterday, between the law
yers representing the Delaware
General Company and the new syn
dictate of Philadelphians who de-
sired to secure the Delaware trolley
franchises and who are now fighting
for the public roads before the Levy
Court of Kent county. They have
deposited the sum of ST. 500 in the
Farmers Bank. The old Delaware
Electric Railroad Company was
backed by John Edward Addicks,
whom Williams. Hilles represented
Mr.. Hilles said "we are here to
fight this thing out. We are going
to build this road and when l say
tive" mean the Delaware Electric
Railway Company. and it is backed
BY Mr.. Addicks. 1t is no political
dodge. Mr.. Hawkins and the gen
tlemen who own this old charter are
Democrats; Mr.. Addicks and Mr..
Alice, who is here to represent him
are Union Republicans. The Com
pany is in the fight for money, not
votes. States Attorney General
White, who represents the new COM
pany had quite a tilt with John D.
Hawkins and the lie was passed
between them. The fight is an
amusing one to the Kent county
citizens. The Philadelphians pro-
pose to introduce electric locomotives
on the line for the transportation of
fruit through the famous peach belt,
through which the line will pass.
The Levy Court refused to rescind
the resolution granting rights of
way to the new company, and both
companies will go ahead with their
lines. The advent of William S.
Hilles in the case, created mild
sensation when it became known
that Mr.. Addicks was back of the
old charter for an electric road.
Mr.. Addicks evidently knows the
value of having good lawyer to
fight for him and that is the reason
and the only reason, that he figured
in the proceedings yesterday before
the Kent County Levy Court.

DESIRES ANNEXATION

Kingston, Jamaica, August %. 49,
Nelson b. Clarke, OF Boston, who
has just arrived here from san Do
ningo, confirms the recent adyices
of the Associated Press as to the
situation Of affairs in that republic
but he adds that the revolution is
so essentially national and devoid
of personal political element that
the adherents Of Jimiuez are adv.s-
ing him not TO come TO San Domin.
90 for the present. What the peo-
pie are clamoring for is not a mere
change in the political personnel
but good government with financial
solyeucy, with which they associate
the idea of American annexation
or protectorate.
This, Mr.. Clark adds, is the whole
present object of the revolution
and the industrial and commercial
conditions are such that the entire
nation endorses the annexation
scheme as the only real solution,
The government Censorships pre-
vents correspondents from cabling
the truth, and the same applies to
Hayti, which sympathetically de-
sires the suppression of the revolu-

famous Rlngling Brothers.. sole pro-

these big, unwieldy elephantine wind

The crownlng feature OF Kansas
City's fall festivities has always been
the parade of the Priests of Pallas,
and in this the closing year Of the
century, 1t is promised that all former
efforts will be improved upon, that the
pageant will be richer, brighter and
more gorgeous than ever.
There is something In the mystery
which surrounds this great free specta-
Gle which seems TO add to its interest
in the public mind. Based upon the
mythical idea of an annual visit Of the
goddess Pallas Athena, all prepara-
tions for the procession are kept secret.
The subject and form Of the floats,
what they will represent, what ideas
or legends they will exemplify are all
kept profoundly hidden from the peO.
pie until they burst upon their view,
upon the brilliantly illuminated streets
In all their dazzling splendor. Their
parades are always magnificent.
The grand panorama Of beauty will
appear this year on the night of Tues
day October Sd. The floats are said to
be more elaborate and to represent in
their adornment larger outlay of la
Dor, time and money than ever before.
There will be twenty Of these floats to
delight the countless thousands who
will thrOng the route of Athene's tri-
umphal progress.
They will be resplendent with all the
gorgeousness known to the spectacular
art. Clever mechanical effects will add
force to the representations, while
some 400 or 500 living characters, in
in costumes rich and rare, Will COM
plete the pictures.
Everybody remembers with delight
the realistic battle ship Oregon of last
years parade. This year the Priests
of Pallas promise surprise" equally
as startling, "hot number" which
will be at once unique and sensational.
In short the people Of all that broad
domain which looks upon Kansas City
as its commercial headquarters may
confidently expect rare entertainment
in the royal pageant with which the
Priests of Pallas will regale their eyes
on Tuesday night of the festival week.
The parade will be great triumphal
festival procession, Teplete with all the
pomp and ostentation possible in
lustrously brightand illuminated grand
spectacular display.
