PENNSY OFFICIALS
MEET DIRECTORS
Conference Held Yesterday in Relation to the Pro-
posed Elevated Tracks for Wilmington.
RESOLUTION TO BE PRESENTED TODAY

From developments yesterday it ap-
pears as though an agreement has been
ht last reached regarding the resolution
giving the PENNSYLVANIA railroad Com
pany permission to elevate tracks through
fhis city, and ii is likely that the drec-
TORS Of the Street and Sewer Department

fent Directors Webster, Carter ana Fa-

aobdcll, chairman Of the board Of Trade
committee, which was appointed to urge
brompt action in the matter.
\ The entire question was gone over and
The sun., 1901-12-03

discussed at length. The principal point
Of disagreement appeared to be regarding
supports, anu this was settled for the
tmc-being by the decision to practically
grant permission to the company to erect
elevated tracks. with the proviso that
before work is begun plans must be sub
mitted to the directors and be approved
by them. This virtually means that n
number OF undecided points will require
further consideration by the directors,
according to the plans submitted to the
company, before every detail is finally
settled. Meanwhile the principal work of
construction will be progressing.
Mr.. Rcinhardt worked until late last
night preparing resolution embracing
ai least all points agreed upon by both
the dlrSctors and the representatives OF
the railroad company. Whatever action
is taken tins resolution will be presented
1T the directors meeting this morning.

BOYS ACCUSED OF THEFT.
Held in Bail by Judge Churchman for
Upper Court.

Few cases came before Judge Church
making an unusually brief Monday morn
ing session.
George Grissom and Elwood Mcdaniel,
eyed II and Is years, respectively, were
charged with the larceny of two brass
scale beams. worth between $25 and $50,
the property of the Hygeia Ice Co., the
articles having been stolen recently from
the company's toolroom, in the rear of
the office, s33 Fast Fourth street. Ed
ward Pusey, the president of the COM
pany, alleged that Mcdaniel admitted
TO him that he was implicated. Police
man Mc(iillon, who arrested Mcdaniel,
said the latter admitted breaking up the
beams with wrench.
Former Judge Ball represented Girls
som and pleaded for both the boys. it be-
ing their first offence. He pointed out
that both boys have good regulations
and asked whether the court would per
nit them to take advantage Of the law
allowing leniency for the first offence.
Judge Churchman said he had never
taken that responsibility, sending such
eases to the upper court. He according
ly held the boys in $100 bail each for the
Court of General Sessions, making the
bail as low as possible. 1t is likely that
| in the upper court the boys will he al
lowed to 20 pending their good behavior

RAIN AND WIND.
After a Long Prokacted Drought.

For some time our people have been
hoping and praying for rain, and on
Thursday at 1870 O'Clock, a rather
heavy rain fell for about 40 minutes,
accompanied by a terrific wind, which
unroofed some of our store houses,
and sheds, al well as uproOting trees
and doing other damage. The storm
or wind did most of the damage on
and near the public square. While
the rain did much good for cotton and
young corn, it vas too late for old corn,
1t was the first rain of any cOnse
quence since June 4th, and 5th. Their
was general rejoicing among u PEG
pie even for this short rain. Tn
indications at this writing are tina
we will have more in a day or two

A NOBLE YOUNG MAN.
In the Person of Mr.. Willie N. DcLoach,
Passes Away.

1t is with genuine regret that we
announce the death of MI. Willie N.
DeLoach, which sad event took place
at his home in Durant, Miss, on
Tuesday morning. July 16, 1901,
about 6 O'Clock, after an illness of
about three weeks.
This noble young man was born at
Abbeville, Lafayette county, June 4,
1874, and with his parents moved to
Grenada county 16 years ago, and in
four years afterwards moved to Gre
NADIA. About January l, 1890, Willie
commenced working in the SENTINEL
office, when a mere youth, and con-
tinued until February, 1899, having
served as foreman the latter four
years. Being in rather poor health he
concluded to make a change and get
work that would give him more out
door exercise. In a short time he
secured a position as brakeman on the
Aberdeen division of the I. c. r. r.
By strict attention to business, he
was promoted to conductor in about
eighteen months, having passed
most creditable examination. Such
rapid promotion is something very
unusual, and proved conclusiyely thai
he not only had push and energy, bu,
ambition and ability.
On December 81, 1900, he married
the kind and lovely Miss Kate Thomas
of Durant. This was truely a low
match, and during their short married
life they were perfectly devoted t.
each other.
During the nine years Mr.. DeLoacl
was with the SENTINEL we found il
him a true, honorable and faithful
employe, always courteous, Cheerful
and obliging. His disposition wa
kindly and equable, and he was highl!
respected and admired by all who knew
him for his many admirable traits o
character. In his death we have los
one of our best, truest and most de
!, voted friends.
!. To his heart-Stricken wife, devoted
} mother, sisters and brothers, as wei
, as other relatives, we extend on
t heartfelt sympathy.

His spirit, as the sun the morning dew"
