Whipping Post Has a Nau-
seating Effect Upon These
MOnaCeS to Society

In the course OF a discussion OF the
brutal murder OF Professor Roy Will
son White, in Philadelphia a few weeks
ago by hoboes, and OF the measures
that must be adopted to curb the
atrocious crimes of this class Of hui
manity. Captain Peter Miller, chief OF
the Philadelphia detective force, said to
a newspaper representative:
The one state In the Union which is
measurably free from the violence and
the depredations OF the hobo is Della
ware. 1t is in Delaware that the whip
ping-pOst exists-one Of the most ef.
fective deterrents for the hobo crimi.
nal which has ever been devised. We
should have the whipping-post here
and We should have the ball and chain
with hard labor in quarries. Only by
these means can respectable people
protect themselves from this growing
and frightful evil. The sooner they d'
it the better"

THE ADDlCKS OUTLOOK

One of the strong and intelligent
members of the Republican National
Committee is Henry B. Thompson. of
this city. Representing the Republi-
can party OF Delaware in that com
mittee, his recommendation with re-
spect to matters affecting the party's
interest in this state naturally will have
great weight with his colleagues. Mr..
Thompson is opposed to the recogni-
tion OF the Addicks delegation by the
National Convention. He knows the
delegates are not Republicans. and he
has an Intimate knowledge of the assis-
tance which the Addlcks party has
given the Democratic party in Della
ware In time gone by. Whatever he
can do to prevent the seating of the
Addicks delegation, will be done.
Commenting on the Addicks effort to
break into the convention Mr.. Thomp-
son says
This Is the fight of Addiclks' political
life. He was beaten at st. Louis, but
he refused to accept defeat, and kept
right on with his endeavor to force his
way into the United States Senate. Last
year he thought he could control the
Delaware Legislature, and when ne
failed he unscrupulously broke all
pledges. and. through the men he con-
trolled, blocked the way for an cleo
tion.
There had been distinct under
standing and pledge that IL Addicl1s did
not receive sufficient votes in the Leg
lslature to elect him to the Senate
other candidates would be voted for
and a senator elected. Addicks failed
and all efforts at compromise proved
futile One hundred and thirteen bal.
lots were cast for senator. the Union
Republicans voting continuously foi
Mr.. Addicks. while the Regular Re
publicans voted in turn for fifteen othei
candidates. For revenge the Addicki
people turned over the city of Whining
ton. which normally has a Republican
majority Of 900, into the hands of the
Democrats.
1t is with this record that Addick
comes before the National COMMITTEES
this year with his demand for eepre
sentation. He knows that II he is beat
en- this time he is beaten forever. Wha
prestige he has will be broken for al
time and he will not be able TO rail,

MANGLED BODY
FOUND ON TRACK
Chester County Has Another
Murder Mystery to
Its Credit
Alfred Green Vas Evidently Killed
and His Body Placed on the
Railroad Tracks

West Chester, June 1.-THE authori-
ties here have been apprised OF some
facts which seem to point to another
murder About ! O'Clock yesterday
morning as two men were walking
on the tracks of the Philadelphia and
Baltimore railroad near Avondale they
discovered the body of a cOlOred man
lying across the track, with his head
On one rail and his feet on another.
Upon their making a close examination
a dep cut was found over one of his
eyes, another at the base OF the brain
and the skull was badly fractured.
These wounds, any one OF which
would have been fatal, showed that
they had been made by a dull, heavy
weapon, but nothing Of the kind was
found
The theory is that the man was MUIR
dered and his body placed upon the
railroad track for the after midnight
train to mangle and thereby create a
false impression as to the cause of
death, but this plan failed
through the finding before the train
was due at hat point.
THE BODY IDENTIFIED.
The body was identified as that CT

PALATIAL HOUSEBOAT CANAAN
BURNED TO WATERS EDGE
Pierre LOriIIardS Famous 100000 Pleasure Craft
Was Built in This City by the PYey and
Jones Company in 1893

Pierre Lorillards famous $1,000
houseboat, Caiman. was destroyed by
fire while anchored in the Indian river,
near New Smyrna. Florida, on June Z.
The Caiman was built in this city by
the Pusey and Jones Company, in 1898,
for Mr.. Lorillard's use in Southern
waters The hull was of STEEL fitted
with transverse bulkheads. and the d.
mensions, as originally built, were 100
feet on deck, "a feet beam and 5i5 feet
hold.
The model was a peculiar one, diff
ferent altogether from any other type
OF yacht seen in these waters. 1t was
taken from the English idea of house
or hotel on a boat. that is in such favor
in the interior OF England by people
OF wealth recreating during the Sum-
mer months, by moving from place to
place in these boats without the incon-
venience of railway travel and the
change of hotels.
The superstructure rising above the
hull of the boat corresponds to the first
and second story Of an ordinary house
This arrangement insures luxurious
comfort for the host and his guests
through months of protracted cruising
No hotel in the land could outdo the
Caiman in this respect, and here was
the distinguishing point between Mr.
Lorillard's yacht and the type regarded
as the standard. which have all the ac-
commodations below deck. The Cal
man was fitted with two Sullivan COM
pound engines driving twin screws
her speed with these engines being
twelve miles an hour. Having made

Caiman we're frequently tested, espe.
cially in riding out severe gales of

was in service Mr.. LOrillard decided tC
