MUST COMPLY WITH LAW.

A dispatch from Dover says:
ut ia the intention of Secretary of Stnte
Layton to push his demands upon repre-
ientatires of foreign corporations for a $50
AK Into the the courts unless the representa-
lives comply with the law.
1.-The secretary Is much concerned over
,nisipterpretation of his recent manifesto
issued to various representatives, making
the demand upon them, as required by law.
1t has been published that this demand was
upon the lawyers who represent companies
chartered in this State, and that it would be
knockout blow to the corporation husi-
ness at Dover.
The fact is, however, that not one of the
concerns chartered at Dover will be called
upon to pay one penny in addition to their
franchise and annual State taxes demanded.
These are not foreign corporations, but
most decidedly are domestic, or home, cor
porations.
AS not more than so corporations which
came into this State to do business had maid
the $50 fee and filed ut the State House
statement OF their affairs, Secretary Layton
began his investigation, and now has a GER
titled list, showing $50 foreign corporations
doing business in New Castle county, and
nearly 90 corporations at work In Sussex,
Kent county's foreign list includes over so.
'Thus the State is losing the license of
800 concerns In New CASTLE county, and
possibly 40 In Sussex, which, II the law
were complied with, would give the State
an additional revenue of $40, OOOp

Take Any Action without Going Over
the Ground in Person.
No mention was made at Tuesdays meet
ing of the Street and Sewer Directors OF the
application of tho p, W. d B. Railroad Co.
for permission to build an elevated railroad
through the city, but after the meeting, in
reply TO question asked by reporter of
The Gazette, Director sFahey said it was
not likely that anything would be done until
the directors could learn more about the
matter. As yet they know nothing, officl-
ally, beyond what is In the resolution which
was introduced last week. The resolution
has had one reading.
II is likely that the directors will make
personal examination of the route of the
proposed elevated tracks, in company with
representative of the company who Is
familiar with the subject; then they will be
in position to know just what the COM
pauy's plaus ara.
The members of Select and Common
Council of Chester, Pa, go to Elizabeth,
Nd, today as guests of the company to
inspect Its elevated railroad there and ses
how it looks and what the result is.

of the marty was most thrilling.
The fire started in the hay. and spread
SO rapidly that NO one had time 10

from the cabin, aud his daughter fol-
lowed. The latter, in jumping to the
pier, distance of eight feet, broke
her ankle and injured herself inter
nally. Her hair had been singed by
the fire. Before the captain could get
his wife to the edge OF the burning
barge, the fire had burned through the
hawsers. and the barge drifted from
tho pier into the slip. Mrs. Shear p
hair and clothing we're ON fire, and so
were ine captains. Taking his wife
ir his arms, he jumped overheard. The
plunge extineuished the fire OIL their
persons, but Mrs. Shear became un-
conscious; and although the captain is
n powerful swimmer, he had difficult
task in supporting her snd himself in
the water. Their danger was increased
by the flames from the blazing barge,
which drifted towards them, and thv
captain had to struggle amid a shower

ing emoke, that concealed him from tho
view Of those on the pier. A tugboat
fortunately appeared at this tiue, and
