ABOUT We'll
Appointment Was Very Hard to
Believe.
LAUGHED AND THEN sW0RE
Announcement Made Yesterday That
He wss to Succeed Magistrate
Sasse---His Candidacy Was
Never Taken Seriously.
AUGHED AND THEN sWORE

The announcement made yesterday that
Moses We'll had been appointed magi.,-
trate to succeed Justice of the Peace
Lewis Sasse came ms shock to the pGO-
Dle of Wilmington yesterday afternoon.
When the news was first received it
was taken as joke and everyone re-
fused to believe it. Later in the after
noon when it WAS confirmed by dis
patch from Dover and there seemed to
he no reason to doubt it the numerous
side was lost sight of in wave of in
,lignation that such a man would for the
next four years fill such an important
office.
We'll was never considered seriously by
anyone i'm Wilmington. He has lived
here for a number of years and durin.
Ill of that time he has been the laughing
stock of everyone who knew him. To
mention his name was to provoke a
laugh. For this reason his candidacy
was never considered seriously. He was
the only one who seemed to think he
would get the appointment. Followed
by his two dogs who were about his only
companions he walked up and down
Market street stopping every one he mrt.
Those with whom he managed to get
into conversation for any length Of time
were asked 70 support him. The thoughS
that he would ever hold such respon:
sible position never occurred TO any Of
these people.
He asked for the office on the grouni
that he was repr, sentative German
| citizen. He was never identified with
any of the prominent Germans, however.
socially or in business way. He was a
l .,e l.,n x,-bn IN
get ''grafts" for himself. He saw his
chance wher the time drew near for tho
rxpiraticr of the term of Mr.. Sasse.
We'll could speak German and in some
way he got it into his head that If he
could pose as German he might got
the position Of magistrate. He was soon
In candidate and from that time until
he was appointed yesterday he stood on
the street corners or IN any other public
place proclaimiug his candidacy and max
ing gestures the like of which have never
been seer before IN Wilmington
He did not have a quality that fitted
him in ary way for the position. On the
other hand he had all the traits tha'
would unfit him to hold it. 1t was ne
wonder hat laugh went up all ovei
Wilmington when he was named for the
Iplnce yesterday.
Il don't believe it." said one man whci
the report of the rumor reached his yes
ltcr'iny.
Another said "IIis appointment will
make it better for the other magistrates.
.He will not get any of my business,
said another.
"What. that funny Moses We'll" sale
lanother. II will go to his court every dd!
it will bc ms good az circus" Thes
are only few OF the expressions heard
The police have had some experienc
with We'll. 1t has not been so very loni
ago that he was arrested on the com
plant OF a boarder in Market stree
lodging house. He was charged witt
acting disordprly by going into the roor
Of woman boarder and causing dis
turbance.
His first case will he waited with mnc
interest and the local theatres will hay

No action was taken by the Street
and Sewer Department yesterday on the

posed elevated tracks through the city.

peared before the board and said that
although he had not as yet prepared an
opinion on the amended resolution ns

had several suggestions regarding the
subject which he desired to lay before the
board
Continuing. Mr.. Reinhardt said that he
had expected John Bggs, attorney for
the company, to be present ut yesterdays
meeting in order that he might confer
with the department on the subject, and
that he had already handed to Mr.. Biggs
Il copy of his suggestions. AS Mr.. BisgS
was not present. Mr.. Reinhardt suggested
that action had best be postponed until
u conference between the officials, him
self and the attorney could be held.
Acting upon this suggestion, the d.
rectors agreed to meet Messrs. Rtin-
hardt and Biggs. the engineer OF the
PENNSYLVANIA Railroad Company. and
City Engineer Boughman. on Friday

/ City Solicitors suggestions. If Mt that
time an agreement il reached. an amend

will he presented at next Tuesday s

parties who may have objections to max"
may then appear, and the subject VIII
be taken up.
In speaking on the subject. Mr.. Rein
harlt said that he had no intention OF
delaying any action. nor did he believe
the Street and Sewer Department had
It was a serious question, however, am,
onc that required deep consideration. tlt
did not believe that such franchise
should be granted hurriedly. thereby

CAPE MAY COLLISION.
Harlan & Hollingsworth Co. Com
plains to Levy Court Commissioners

The Harlan & Hollingsworth Company
has addressed communication to tn"
Levy Court Commissioners that the cause
OF the ferryboat Cape May c0lliding with
the approach to the .,iarket street bridge
on Saturday last, at which time tn"
ferryboat was slightly injured, is due to
the draw not being turned off ut tn"
proper time. In communication seit
to the Levy Court Commissioners the
company states that on approaching the
bridge the Cape May blew her whistle
for the draw to be turned off and that
no attention was paid to the whistle by
the bridgetender.I also states that the
ferryboat then blew the danger signal
and that the Cape May was so near the
bridge when the draw was turned off
that the collision with the approach re-
suited.
Willard Il. Gregg, day tender at the
Market street bridge, was much surprised
yesterday wnen he learned of the Har
Ian Il Hollingsworth Company's action.
Mr.. Gregg stated that at the time the
Cape May blew for the draw he was in
the boiler room fixing the injector. i;
was on market day and great many
teams were crossing the bridge at the
time. Mr.. Gregg claims that the draw
was turned as soon after the Cape Ma
blew her whistle as possible. The bridge
was turned in the opposite direction from
which the Cape May was going and MIR
Gregg says that it did not cause thf
boat to collide with the approach. He
says that the boat did not give the dan
ger signal but blew her whistle five con
secutive times which he thought was q
signal for the men in the yard to get
ready to dock her.
-Mr. Gregg has been one of the most
careful men ever employed by the Lev,
Court in a like capacity and since he
coming brdgetender he has kept TIL
bridge in excellent condition.
