r. II. WHITE AND R. L. M'VEIGH
CHOSEN LIEUTENANTS OF COM.
PANY A.
Company A, National Guard Of Della
ware, held an exciting election for
lieutenants at the Armory last even
ing. Several months ago forty-eight
members of the company asked for
their discharge. which was refused and
when the annual inspection took
place, on December %, the men refused
to attend. which was partly RESPONSE
Bile for the inspection being held be-
hind closed doors.
Several days ago an order was issued
for the election of first and second
lieutenants OF the company, and a
number OF the forty-eight enrolled ap-
peared, with the intention of voting.
Prior to the election an order was
read from headquarters announcing the
discharge Of the men. This enraged
them. and they charged Captain Car
ter with underhand work. and after
the election a delegation called on Col
onel Townsend, who explained the en-
tire matter.
Captain Matlack, of CompanyC. held
the election, which resulted in f. H..
White being chosen first lieutenant
and r. L. McVeigh second lieutenant
to NIL vacancies caused by resignation
and promotion. In few weeks six
corporals and six sergeants will be

Wilmington people appear to have
forgotten that there exists a gas COM
pany that has a charter from the Leg
islature authorizing it to lay pipes in
all the streets, lanes and alleys Of this
city without regard to the wish, will
or whims OF the Street and Sewer di-
rectors.
This company, The Citizens Coke and
Fuel Gas Company, is now preparing
to utilize its charter. The incorpora-
tors are Alfred d. Warner, James
BARLEY, Preston Lea, Thomas b.
Smith, William C. Pennypaeker,
George G. Lobdell Jr., Charles N.
Trump, Andrew Wilson. James II. Hoi-
fecker. Jr.. Samuel N. Trump and Lin
ton Smith.
The present officers and board Of di-
rectors are: c. N. Trump president;
S. n. Trump, vice-president; George
r. Hofecker, secretary and treasurer;
severson B. Cooling and Christian
Frederick.
The company was chartered by the
Legislature on the 21st day OF April.
1887, to exist twenty years; with a
capitalization Of 100000. The char
ter was amended and made perpetual
and the capital increased to 100000
on March %, 1899
The Citizens Coke and Fuel Gas Com
pany win proceed to erect thirty Semet-
solway coke ovens, capable of produc-
ing a daily output of 1870 tons Of coke.
The average Of surplus gas produced
by this process is 1000 feet for each
ton. This is a by-product of the busi-
ness, as are also coal tar and ammonia
which are obtained in large quantities
The company proposes to sell the
gas to Wilmington consumers. The
right OF the company to use the streets
does not depend upon the Street and
Sewer Department, but upon the City
Council.
The act creating the Street and
Sewer Department became a law on
April 20. 1887, and this act on April 21
1887. Being the later act it, by neces-

sary implication, repeals anything
conflicting with IL that is found in the
act creating the Street and Sewer De
partment. This fact makes section
OF the act Of Incorporation Of interest
just now. This section is:
Section 3. The corporators shall
have the right to lay pipes and mains
for distributing gas to consumers there
of in and under the streets, lanes and
alleyways Of the city Of Wilmington,
Delaware, subject TO the direction OF
the City Council Of said city, or OF
such officers and agents as It, the said
City Council, may empower 60 super
intend and direct the laying Of said
mains and pipes"
The Incorporating act empowers the
company ito purchase, take, hold
grant, sell, mortgage. alien and dispose
OF lands, tenements, hereditaments,
goods, chattels and effects" thus Civ
ing it authority to do a much greater
business than merely to make and sell
coke. gas and such products.
Section two defines the primary OBJ
jects Of the corporation:
Section 2. The objects OF this cor
poration shall be the manufacture and
sale Of gas, coke and other products
resulting from the distillation Of coal,
shales, wood, oils and other sub
stances"
From this it will be seen that If it
so desires the company may make
I water gas, too.
President Charles n. Trump is now
taking subscriptions for stock. and ii
is being taken with eagerness. The
Semet-Solway Company has indicated
its readiness to take half of It. That
company has several establishments in
successful operation and never fails tc
take stock in any company using its
system, as the profits are large. One
/ SITS 900 plant, using the class OF Goa
that will be used here, cleared last
year s129.S27.
The price OF gas will be greatly re-
duced to, consumers by this company. d.
The Citizens Coke and Fuel Gas
Company will notify the City Council
at its next meeting Of its desire to be
gin work at once, and to use the streets
under authority OF its charter, and
lay mains and pipes while construct
ing it's plant SO that it may be pre-
pared to sell it's gas as soon as 1t;
ovens are put into operation.
