George s. Capelle president of the Ma
tional Bank Of Wilmington and Brandy
wine said: II consider IL would be
useless TO call an extra session OF the Leg
islature. as the members | feel would
continue TO vote against Mr.. Addicks and
the condition to-day is as good as we can
hope for under existing circumstances"
Howard T. Wallace, president of the
Diamond State Steel Company, is one Of
the few leading manufacturers who favor
the election OF two senators. He said:
1.-TWO senators are preferable TO two
vacancies all the time, for unless we are
represented in Washington our business
interests will suffer II we cannot have
two senators without Mr.. Addlcks, l feel
that we should accept him, so that we
will be represented by some one in Wash |
ington."
DOG IN MANGER POLICY.
Wilmer J. Ellison, secretary Of the VIII
mington Savings Fund Society, and also
OF the Ferris Industrial School, in speak
ing OF the present situation, said: II say
let 1t remain as It Is. Addicks has played
the deg in the manger SO long that his
election to the United States Senate under
any conditions would be an everlasting
disgrace. Two vacancies are preferable
any time to Addicks's election
The entire corporation OF the Pusey and
Jones Company, one of the most conserva-
tive and soundest manufacturing con-
Germs in the country arose In opposition
to Addicks This firm, in addition io
being extensive ship and boat builders,
do large export business in cotton, sugar
and paper machinery, and are possibly
as much interested In having Delaware
fully represented In the Senate as any
other concern. They have large shipping
interests, and, Of course, are vitality con-
cerncl in harbor improvements. yet ap-
parently, if such Improvements are to be
the price of Addicks' election. this en-
tire corporation is willing to do without
them. Charles w. Pusey. president, who
was a Mckinley presidential elector last
November. said he had not changed the
views he expressed during the session OF
the Legislature. and Thomas II. Savery.
the vice-president, and w. W. Pusey
secretary and treasurer, took the same
position as himself They have had no
treason to change the anu-Addicks opinion
they expressed in January, when it was
urged that unless Addicks was elected
harbor improvements in Wilmington
would suffer
