a Delaware man by nativity residence
His wife owned a house located about 800
feet inside the state line. and thereby Mr.
AddickS claims to be citizen of Delaware
When he first made his appearance before
the public he declared that he was moving
into Delaware to be elected United States
senator. Delaware has been proud of her
senators in the past. Bayard and Salisbury
have represented the little state, and the
senatorship has been to the people posi-
ton of honor to be given to distinguished
citizens. Mr. Addcks is resented by many
republicans. we'll as democrats, because
Of the methods he is alleged to use in for
wardng his candidacy. He IS millionaire
accust omed to deal in large sums. When he
wants block of stock he buys it. He is
said to belong to that school of modern poll
ticlans who make no distinction between
votes and chattels.
Hns Received Many Rebuns.
Since his first entry into Delaware politics
as candidate for United States senator
Mr.. Addicks has received a number of re-
bluffs. Nothing dismays him, however, and

ACCIDENTAL DEATH.
Verdict of Jury i'm the Case of Julia
Archer.

Archer.
Coroner hewitt held inquest at the
sixth precinct station this morning in the
case Of Julia Archer the elderly colored
woman, who died at the Emergency Hospi-
tai about l o'clock yesterday morning from
an injury to the head received by falling
from a METROPOLITAN car. The accident
happened about IL o'clock Wednesday night
on Al street southwest, Just below Mary
land avenue Mrs. Archer resided in Hills
dale. She had attended a meeting Of a
lodge of Good Samaritans and had started
toward home. When the transfer station
was reached at the intersection Of AZ street
and Maryland avenue she got on the
wrong car and went south instead of going
east. 1t is probable that when she realized
her mistake she became excited and at
tempted to get off the moving car Wit
nesses described the accident, and the jury
returned a verdict Of accidental death.
Mrs. Archer who was more than sixty
years old, had charge of the ladies' toilet
room at the Center Market for number
of years. Her body was removed to her
late home, in Hillsdale, this afternoon. Ar
rangements have been made to hold funeral
services in the Baptist church of which
Rev. Howard is pastor, in South Washing
ton, Sunday afternoon.

one can count definitely upon The full
strength Of the forces of the opposing fac
ton even at this late day, upon the very
eve of the legislative session. The opponents
Of Mr.. Addicks find it impossible to esti-
mate accurately their strength. Probably 1t
will not be known until the first roll call
on joint ballot discloses the alignment, and
even then the Addicks people may not show
all their hand.
Indications point to mis- control of the
legislature. That will mean the election Of
probab bly, will be a deadlocked legislature.
The state Is intensely agitated over the
situation, and nothing else IS talked about
within the borders. and even sleepy, seda te
old Dover is in q tumult. Mr.. Addicks has
built up for himself a large and earnest fac
ton. His friends are loyal, and as siren
uous IN their advocacy of his claims as his
enemies ale in opposition. He IS undoubt-
today, whatever his enemies say against
him. n. O. M.

Joseph Whipper, coored, who conducts an
oyster saloon at No. 1910 18th street north
west, reported to the 9Th precinct police
last night that he had had trouble with a
young colored man named James Hicks.
About 10 o'clock Whipper was in his place
Of business, so he reported. when Hicks en-
tered and claimed a bicycle that had been
left there about three months ago by Alice
Clark Upon his refusal to surrender the
wheel to Hicks the latter, he alleges, fired
one shot at him, but the bullet did not
strike him.
A warrant was sworn out for Hicks
charging him with the alleged shooting and
the police are looking for him.

the most prominent democrats in the state.
The object of the gathering was to devise
ways and means to prevent Mr.. Addicks
election to the Senate. The democrats in
Delaware regard his elimination from poll
tics essential and their chief aim and OBJ
tect In life is to that it is accomplished.
The meeting did not hit upon any plan to
shelVe Mr.. AddickS. Several met hods were
proposed. Among them was one that the
democrats should vote with the anti-Ad-
dicks republicans and elect some good
publican to the place. The sense of the
meeting, however, was thai this was not
good politics. Up to this time. therefore.
the democrats have no wel-marlred plan
to accomplish their end, but will go into
the legislature when it meets next Tuesday
with the general idea Of opposing anything
and everything likely TO be productive of
good to Mr.. Addicks.
Deadlock Not Imoossible.
A deadlock in the legislature is not an
impossblity. If ii occurs 1t will be a repe-
Addicks. He has Geadlocked two legisla-
lures causing thereby vacancies 10 exist in
the United States Senate. In 1895 and
again in 1899 Mr.. Addcks dcadlocked the
legislature, Insisting that if he could not be
elected the state Of Delaware should have
no republican senator. 1t would be rather
an Interesting occurrence if the legislature
should adjourn at the end Of it's sixty days
tenure, leaving the state unrepreSented in
the upper house of the national Congress.
1t is said that Mr.. Addclls IS capable of
such a performance. although his friends
claim that it Will not be necessary, and that
he and Mr.. Higgins will be elected early in
the session.
Mr. Addcks is Il thorn in the side of
many of the people Of Delaware. lie is not

Fifty tons Of candy have been sent to the SOL
