sIoERED A GOOD ONE.

PREMISES.
Yesterday afternoon the Evening
Journal gave exclusive news Of the pur-
chase OF the Finn farm at Green
bank, not far from Brandywine
Springs Park, for a site for the county
workhouse.
The Finn farm is the property Of
Miss Ann Catherine Finn, and is situ-
ated near Greenbank, about five miles
from this city. One edge skirts the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, while the
Red Clay creek also is a short distance
away. making a natural receptacle
for drainage. Likewise, the new road
is but a short distance away, along
which the Wilmington and Brandy
wine Springs railway passes. This
gives the trustees a site that affords
steam railroad. wagon road and cleo
trical railway transportation advan-
tages, and with natural drainage fol
all buildings that may be erected, be-
side a suffieiency Of stone.
Another meeting OF the trustees will
lsoon be held, when an architect vii
lbe authorized to draft plans and speci
hcations for a workhouse that can b'
lerected with the funds available.
The trustees seem agreed that the
workhouse shall be a stone structure
with the building for the superintend
ent and wardens at one end, from
which will lead a long corridor, alonl
leach side of which will be the cells fol
men. At the other end will be anothei
building. which will contain the cell
for women prisoners, and also will b.
Furnished with the heating apparatus
and any other machinery that shall b
necessary. The stone with which tn
workhouse will be built is to be quar-
lried on the site decided on yesterday.
At present the trustees are disin
clined to state the price paid for tn
forty acres Of land.
Joseph L. Carpenter. Jr., one OF tn
: trustees. was not present at the meet
ling. and to-day he remarked to a
q Evening Journal reporter that he doe

Local morocco manufacturers say
they are buster now and are making
less money than for years. They state

BUILDING INSPECTOR TO ACT
WILL HAVE JERSEY TRUCKERS AZ
RESTED FOR VIOLATING LAW.

CITY SOLICITOR CONRAD DECIDES
THE JERsEYMEN HAVE NO
RIGHT TO ERECT FRAME BUILD
INGs-wILL BE ARRESTED TO
DAY.
The conundrum when is shed not
a she'd that has been worrying Build
ing Inspector Cassidy for some time
has been partially solved by City So
licitor Conrad.
When the New Jersey Truckers
struck against paying the wharfag,
levied by the Street and Sewer Depart
ment for the use of Front and Churcl
streets wharf they proceeded to cree
a shed on private property adjoining
in violation Of a city ordinance. Sec
retary Wiley, of the Street and Sewer
Department, was notified, but upon in
|vestigation found that the alleged VIC
lation did not come under his juris
diction, inasmuch as the structure wa,
on private property, but belonged di
rectly to the Office of the building In
spector. Mr.. Cassidy investigated ans
ordered the shed torn down, as ii
erection was in direct violation Of th
fire ordinance regarding the erection
of frame buildings. The Jerseymen fail
ed to comply, however, claiming tina
shed was not building.
City Solicitor Conrad was appealel
to by the Street and Sewer Department
for an opinion, and in a communica
ton received yesterday by the boar
he stated that the ordinance was be
ing violated. and that the parties coul
be arrested and brought before Judg
Ball The penalty imposed is fin
of not less than SO, nor more thai
500, and not less than $50. nor NOR
than 500 for every twsnty-four hour
the shed remains standing after tn
first conviction is secured. In accord
ance with this opinion. Mr. Cassid
will swear out warrants for the OF
tending parties.

GARBAGE UNCONSUMED
Board of Health Office Still
Flooded With Complaints.
ORBMATORY SHOULD RUN LONGER
CARTS COMPELLED TO STAND
SEVERAL HOURS AT CREMA-
TORY BEFORE UNLOADING.
COUNCILMAN WILLIS SAYS
MORE HELP is NEEDED.

MORE HELP is NEEDED.
Residents and contractors are still
complaining that the city crematory
ca1not consume the garbage collected,
said Secretary Of the Board OF Health
Wigglesworth this morning.
"The great trouble seems to be,
continued Mr.. Wigglesworth, "that the
immense amount Of garbage that col
lects at this period OF the year cannot
be handled by the crematory in sat
isfactory manner Especially is this
true OF Saturday, when the furnaces
shut down at noon. Garbage collect
ed after that hour must stand in the
carts until Monday before it can be
consumed, and as there is no a suffi-
cient number of wagons to collect all
the garbage in the city and keep it
standing over Sunday, a quantity Of it
must necessarily be left untouched.
Complaints have been made that
the Board OF Health Office does no busi-
ness after noon on Saturday, but where
Is the use OF keeping it open to receive
complaints that cannot be attended to.
II the crematory continues in opera
tion until midnight Saturday nights
this Office will remain open and the
contractors will continue to haul gar
bage as long as it can be disposed of.
mot only is the trouble experienced
Saturday night, but during the day
also, MS on Monday over half the teams
were down at the crematory all night
as the place was choked up. I'm
doubtedly more help or longer hours
are necessary at the crematory"
MR. WILLIS INsPECTS.
In conversation on ne subject this
morning Mr.. Willis. chairman of the
ICrematory Committee Of Council, said:
Towing to the many complaints re-
garding the working of the crematory
being made. inspected the plant and
found It in frst-class condition. al
Though the place was two-thirds full
lof unconsumed garbage
There is no question but that more
help is needed, as there are only two
men on at q shift now. and at least
one more is required. I shall recon-
mend another man to Council at its
next meeting. as the cost of additional
help would be saved in the coal con.
|sumed."
