 Alyah Collier Has Claims.

Suit was filed Thursday afternoon in the circuit court h which Alyah Collier is plaintiff and Fannie B. Loveless, ct al., defendants. Mes SITS. White & Althelmer represent the plaintiff.
 Plaintiff claims that heis the own- CT of certain property in Pine Bluff and Jefferson county.
 It seems from the complaint that up to the 23 d day of February 1891 this land vas owned by one Dawson Narce and that both the plaintiff and defendants claim title thereunto. On the 22rd day of February 1891 Dawson Nance died, and b3 will bequeathed the lands to his wife, Rebecca Nance. who on the 18th day of January 1895 dled in testate: without making any will.
 Plaintiff claims to be the sole heir of Rebecca Nance and by virture of her death the property descended to him. He claims, in his complaint, that he is the legal owner in fee thereof. He charges that defend ants have been, and are, in un.aw- ful possession for the last three years past: and by reason of what plaintiff charges, he further alleges that he Fas sustained damages to the extent of $l8O. He prays judgement for the recovery of the land and damages

The Business situation.

RIG. Dun g. Co. IS Review of Saturday
says; Nothing appears in business, or
In money markets, to prevent oontinu-
anee Of the heaviest trade ever trans
acted at good profits. The payment to
Spain is supposed to have caused some
rise in foreign exchange, which would
amount to nothing in any case, as bal
ances due from other countries more
than cover the payment, and advance
bills against crops to come forward in
July and later will soon be offered.
Loans on industrial securities are still
at higher rates than on railway stocks,
but on good commercial PAPER or rail-
road stocks money is in ample supply
and at low rates. Nor have stock
operations caused any appearance of
pressure. The financing of new cor
Porations has passed thus far with less
trouble than had been feared, though
the completion Of some organizations
is hindered or has failed. The usual
time for financial troubles in spring
has passed, and tho usual alarm about
crops has done its work, and still in
dustries are undisturbed''
The current Issue of Bradstreet's
notes that IAN enlarged demand for
this country'S manufactured products
in some degree counterbalances the
falling off in the value CT agricultural
exports, notably cereals and cotton,
shown as compared with year ago.
For the month of March a drop Of
SIS, 600, 900 in exports of hreadstuffs,
cotton, provisions, live cattle and min
eral oils has been partly made up by
gain of nearly $40, 600 in other pro-
ducts, leaving net deficiency as COM
pared with a year ago of per cent.
Imports reflect the increased purchas-
ing power of the country, the total for
March, in fact, being the largest since
May, 1897. For the nine months
period exports, as whole, are little
less than double the imports. Wheat,
including flour, shipments for the week
aggregate 1882. 959 bushels, against
1883, 6l9 bushels last week, 3, 232, 106
bushels in the corresponding week of
1898, 1,654,66S bushels in 1897,
1926, 400 bushels in 1886, and 2, 431, 1884
bushels in 1895. Since July LIST, this
season, the exports of wheat aggregate
1893, 1852. 178 bushels, against 191, sos, 686
bushels last year. Corn exports for the
week aggregate 1901, $40 bushels,
against 1866, 1875 bushels last week,
3, 1863, 4S2 bushels in this week year
ago, 4, 769, 315 bushels in 1897, 981, 2O6
bushels in 1896 and 1872, 800 bushels in
1885.
Since July LIST, this season, corn ex-
ports aggregate 1875, 047,744 bushels,
against 147, 1913, 1874 bushels during the
same period year ago. Better weather
has favored trade in light fabrics at
some Western markets. Chicago iron
and steel manufacturers are rushed to
the limit of their capacity, while sup
lies of raw material barely equal re-
quirements. The California wheat crop
will be heavy one, and wheat charters
are in in increasing demand. -

ARREST OF SCHAFFNER AND MCAULLEy.
Held for 80 Days TO Await the Action of the
Delaware Authorities.

Held for 30 Days TO Await the Action OF the
| Delaware Authorities.
Fortune favored Detective Money
when he captured Herbert McCaulley
and A lbert Schaffner in New York City
ON Thursday night on the charge of
forgery. When he arrived in New York
Detective William Capper was detailed
to assist him. They started in to
search the places in the Tenderloin dis
trict, in the vicinity of Twenty third
street and Broadway. When near the
corner of Twenty third and Broadway
Detective Money saw man be had
seen frequently in Wilmington. Mutual
recognition followed and the detective
asked whether any other Whining
tonians had been seen in New York
recently. The person addressed said he
had seen a young man who was at one
time employed in an attorneys office
here in company with another young
man no did not recognize. From the
description McVey felt positive he was
on the right track,
After searching the places in the
vicinity Of Twenty-third street for
some time and failing to find the men,
Detective Money saw a woman with
whom he had understood they we're ac-
quainted. She was watched until she
entered place known as the Hay
market, at Sixth avenue and Thirty
third street. Tho detectives followed
and going to Dollar Smiths saloon,
which IS ON the second floor of the
Haymarket building, saw Schaffner
and McCaulley sitting at n table. where
they had evidently been drinking.
Their backs were turned toward the
detectives and McVey walked up to
them and placing his hands on them
said "Cope, take one with mo-"
Schaffner and McCaulley were at
once placed under arrest on the charge

Gently passed in this city on William
Alsentzer and Dominick Sustillo. They
We're taken to police headquarters, in
Mulberry street, where they were
searched. A quantity of iewelry, be-
lieyed to be the property of the woman
the detectives had seen, was found on
one of them and he explained that he
had intended to pawn it, as they ex-
pected to go to Paris. The money had
evidently almost been exhausted, as
Schaffner had only 60 cents and Nc
Caulley 81. %. One of them told the
officers that they had 500 when they
went to New York last Saturday night.

Magistrate Jewell in the jefferson
market court and held without bail for
30 days to await the action of the
Delaware authorities. Steps looking
toward bringing them here for trial
will be taken next week, and they will
probably be given hearing the follow
ing week.
The police are of the opinion that
there are checks ont which have not
come to light and a search is being
made for them.
At Saturday mornings session of city
court Walter Kettlewood and Warren
W. Yerger were arraiened on the charge
of forgery, but at the request of Assist
ant City Solicitor Cahoon the case was
continued until next Saturday, when,
he informed the court, the men arrested
in New York would probably be here
and the whole matter could be taken
up at once.

DELAWARE DIVrsIoS CUTOFF.
Work of Track Laying viii Probably be
Started Soon.


The work of building the new track
OF the Delaware railroad from the west
yard to Bear station is expected to be
started. Engineers have been visiting
New Castle and Farnhurst and survey
of the latter place has been made 10
order to ascertain what is to be done
and thus be able to estimate the costs
and intelligently bid on the work.
Some trouble has been experienced
in securing land below Farnhurst. The
Trustees Of the New Castle Comomns
sold to the Delaware Railroad Go.
several years ago several acres of land
at $500 per acre. Recently an effort
was made to secure another lot of about
three acres at the same rate. The re-
suit was that the residents of New
Castle soon got up In arms and the
trustees refused to sell the land at the
price offered and they now ask 500 for
each acre. This has had the effect
of cooling matters off and it is under
stood that on this account the work
contemplated has been held back.
During the past month a right of
way through the Jason Davis farm was
secured. The proposed change of line
will take the tracks directly through
the site of tenement house ON the
farm. The indemnify has been decided
upon.
1t is stated on good authority that as
soon as the company can secure the
ground at Farnhurst the work will be
started In earnest and pushed with
vigor. The changes recently described
in these columns will be made, and
Pencader will be one of the most i'm.
portant points along the Maryland di-
vision. This will add materially to the
Importance of Newark and will be of
great benefit to that place.
