WANT PARTY RULES CHANGED.

ana scoft Desire mn Amend ment IN Their
INTEREST @ t
State Senator Charles ii. Salmcn Of
the Sixth district Of this county, and
Levy Court Commissioners Henry M.
White and William A. Scott Of the two
lower districts, all Democrats. want to
succeed themselves, in spite OF the fact
that under their party's rules, as they
now stand, their denomination is not
permitted. On this account, these three
officials are DESTROYS of securing n
change in the party rifles, and to that
end wish special county convention.
A petition bearing 100 signatures is to
be presented to the county committee,
asking that a special session be called,
The rules of the party provide for
rotation In the nominations for State
Senator and Levy Court Commissioners
outside Of Wilmington, wherever more
than one of the hundie eds is interested.
Thus each OF the Senatorial districts
includes more than one hundred and
under the rules, the hundred repre-
sented by candidate for Senator in
one election, cannot have candidate
again until the other hundred or
hundreds have had their turn. Thus
Senator Hart lives in Pencader
hundred; the next candidate for
Senator from the Sixth district
should come from st. Georges hundred.
One suggestion is that be may move
into st. Georges hundred to qualify
himself under the rules.
The rules make similar provision
in the case Of the Levy Court Commits
sioners outside of this CITY. Mr.. White
lives in New Castle, and Mr.. Scott, in
AProquinimink; the next nominations
should go to other hundreds in their
respective districts.
There is also provision of law that
Levy Court Commissioners are ineligi-
hle for reelection, hut some ambiguity
of expression has raised doubt
whether it applies to the present in
cumbents. %
At any rate, should special county
convention be called. a warm fight may
be expected over the effort to alter the
rules in the interests OF Messrs. Salmon,
White and Scott.
While interested candidates favor the
proposed change, Democrats generally
are opposed to any changee whatever,
and it is probable that none will be
made.

occupying a furnished room. Mrs.
Parker was removed to u hospital. and
Sweeney was arrested az he wandered
along the street, brandishing his pistol.
The shooting, according to the
womau's story, was the result of
jealousy. Sweeney told the police it
was accidental. Mrs. Parker, who has
been for some time separated from her
husband, has been lately receiving the
attentions Of Sweeney, who has wife
and two children. Last night, how
ever, Mrs. Parker, she stated today,
was accompanied to the theatre by
friend named Reilly. When they
returned to the woman g room, Sweeney,
who. Mrs. Parker said, was hiding
behind the hall door, jumped out with
a revolver in his hand. and, accusing
her of being untrue to him, fired one
shot, which hit her in the left breast
Sweeney then ran away.
When arrested, Sweeney admitted
that he had shot Mrs Parker, but
claimed that it was an accident.

Porto Rico Road building TO be Done by
the Central Construction Co. of New York.
The Central Construction Go. of New
York has been awarded the Contract for
building sundty roads in Porto Rico,
Notwithstanding the fact that tho Della
ware Granite and Mining Go. of this
city was the lowest bidder John Il.
Dickey, president Of the Delaware COM
pany, in speaking of the matter yes
terday, said he was at q loss to know
why the New York company had re.
ceived the contract, as his company
had agreed to do the work for S24l, $50,
while the figures of the New York COM
pany were - ,574 higher, being S243, 564.
The contract was awarded on Monday
by Capt Judson, president of the
Board of Public Works of Porto Rico,
and approved by Governor, General
Davis.
~ cannot tell why we lost tho con-
tract said Mr.. Dickey. 1--WE bid like
all of the others and gave our certified
check for Sl,000. am informed that
all other checks were returned and ours
was retained, which certainly gave US
the impression that we were to re-
teive the contract We had ample
proof uf our responsibility from some
of the best known people in this
country and gave security to the
amount of 800, COO, which was required.
We thought they were perfectly salts.

the matter when we left. T"
Mr.. Dickey said his company would
not make any protest, as the decision Of
the Porto Rico officials is final. The
hids were opened on December 23d.
Patrick Fahey, j. j. Smith, John N.
Carswell and 9. j. Horrigan are the
other members of the Delaware Granite
and Mining Co.
Governor General Davis was seen by
Mr.. Carswell of the local company
fow days ago I'M Washington. He ex-
planned that the Central Construction
Co. had done work before, whereas tho
Delaware company was new and not
completely organized, and. that the
quality Of the work done by the Central
Construction Co. would be such as to
more than equal the difference in the
bids.
The local company will continue in
business and will develop the quarry
at Caroroft. 1t already has several
contracts.

Georgia were owned and controlled by
George s.. May and the consideration

ONE SMALLPOX PATIENT DEAD.
No Other Cases Reported and the Hea1,f
Officers Think There is no Occasion fol

No Other Gases Reported and the Health
Officers Think There is NO Occasion for
Alarm.
Nina Yester, aged 3 years, one Of tie
two smallpox patients reported to the
Board of Health few days ago, died
early yesterday, at the residence of
her parents, No. BOG Conrad street.
Her Gaze was regarded as exceedingly
serious from the first and when she
died her entire body was covered with
eruptions. The body was buried ac-
cording to the regulations of the Board
of Health yesterday afternoon.
The other patient, Annie Krautter,
who is in the same house, is reported
to be recovering, and as no other cases
have been reported and every pre-
caution is being taken to prevent the
spread Of the disease, Secretary Wiggles-
worth OF the Board of Health thinks
there is no occasion for alarm.
Nothing has been learned that will
give clue to the manner in which the
patients contracted the disease. They
had not been out of the city and had
had no visitors from other pldces.
About two weeks ago the father, who
Isl laborer in the employ Of the Harlan
d Hollingsworth Co., became sick with
yarioloid, but had only slight attack
and has recovered. How he contracted
yarioloid is a mystery.
Miss krautter's parents live at No.
III West Third street, and, from what
can be learned, have not been at the
Conrad street house or seen Annie for
some time. Tuesday, however, the
teachers at No. 8 School, in order TO
protect the other scholars. sent two of
the Krautter children home. The
parents claim that they have had no
opportunity to come into contact with
the patient or the disease and tire
matter is being investigated by the
school authorities. The children may
be permitted to return. .-.s'.
The city vaccine physicians and other
physicians have been busy fascinating
people during the past few days.

A local morocco manufacturer of
glazed kid said yesterday that, although
the Wilmington establishments are en-
ioying a fair share of trade, the ex-
cessiye price Of raw material, as COM
pared with finished stock, has caused
some of the manufacturers to curtail
their output 1t is expected that some
action to regulate the matter will be
taken at the semi-annual meeting of
the Morocco Manufactur ers' National
Association, at the Bellevue Hotel,
Philadelphia, tomorrow. Nearly all Of
the local plants will be represented.
