Changes in Smyrna Com
paDy Cause Considerable
Surprise There
Special 70 the Evening Journal.

Hlttldi 10 the l4NtNlnE Journal
Smyrna, August a. Considerable sur
prise was expressed in business circles
here last night whom 1t was learned that
reorganization Of the Philadelphia and
Smyrna Transportation had taken place
10 go into effect September l..
The history Of this company which does
an extensive business in shipping freight
between Smyrna and Philadelphia, also
in coal, etc. is an interesting one. 1t has
weathered many a storm and is now ON
a sound financial basis. The late Con-
gressman John IL. Hoffecker was for a
number Of years president Of the concern.
Seeing there was an excellent opportu-
nifty for competing boat line the Mlessrs.
Brady and Middletown. when the present
company was in financial difficulty, had
the George +. Brady built, and then the
boat war began in earnest and so intense
became the rivalry between the two COM
panies that every business man within a
radius OF ten miles Of this town became
a champion Of one concern or the other
The Bradys finally began to tire OF a
losing game and after loss Of some $50,
600 sold out TO the Philadelphia and
Smyrna Transportation Company. Then
the Farmers and Merchants Company
was formed and for a year more the war
was continued with the result that the
latter named firm quiz the field. This left
the present company without competition
and a good paying business has been
built up. all the directors being business
men Of Smyrna. a. Il. Jardine has for
years been the head and brains OF this
business acting as secretary and treas
urer.
The surprise was created when II was
learned that he has been deposed from
this position. At meeting Of the stock
holders Former CONGRESSMAN W. o. Hof.
fecker, John A. Hoffecker, J. Edwin
Hoffecker and Hcrvey p Hall, their
brother-in-law. were elected a board Of
directors. The directors organized by
electing w. o. Hoffecker, PRESIDENT j.
r. Hoffecker. secretary and treasurer,
and Mr. Jardine, manager. The four di-
rectors are native Smyrna men and will
push the business in every way possible
Ii is expected the reorganization of the
company will bring together those who
have been opposed TO the old concern.
with the result that Smyrna viii have
the largest and best service of any or the
towns south Of Wilmington, .sata

MANY FIRMS ARE PROTESTING

Manufacturers operating plants along
the route Of the proposed elevated rail
road tracks in the city OF Wilmington are
beginning to fear that their work will be
interferred with by the tracks, il they are
not placed higher than the plans specify.
At the meeting Of the Street and Sewer
Department this morning a communica-
tion was received from the Harlan and
HollingswOrth Company asking that the
railroad company give them clearance
of eighteen feet at both West and Justi-
son street entrances TO their plants.
Victor Il. Woolley, attorney for Joshua
Simmons and Willard Salisbury, attor-
ney for S. q. Simmons & Co., made the
same request.
The protests were filed along with other
communications Of the same nature and
wiu be considered in due time.
The B. and o. Railroad Company in
formed the board that Ninth street bridge
is in need Of repairs and that it is the
city's place to pay for such repairs, ao-
cording to the agreement of 1897. The
railroad company will tear the bridge
down if the city does not want it. The
directors will look into the matter.
For $4,000 A. G.. b. Anderson received
the contract for keeping the city ashes re-
moved. The contract is for one year.

SAYS DRLAW Arb
WILL BIB IMPROVED
Chief Of Engineers Reports
Project Soon Will be
Realized

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 27.-Brigadier
General Gillespie, chief of engineers,
who, in company with Lieutenant Colonel
Raymond and Captain Spencer Crosby,
took a trip down the Delaware river on
Saturday to examine the channel improve
ments there, in speaking yesterday Of his
tour, said
I'VE visited New Castle. Wilmington
and Delaware Breakwater, not for the
purpose of ascertaining the needs of the
channel, but TO examine into the defenses
of the bay. We found everything in a
very satisfactory condition. The work,
under Colonel Raymond. has been pro-
crossing with all possible haste and to
the entire satisfaction of the War De
partment. As Colonel Smith is about to
succeed Colonel Raymond in this work,
we inspected what had been done to see
just how matters stood before being
turned over to Colonel Smith.
while the desire Of the department to
obtain a thirty-fOOt channel for the Della
ware river has not yet been realized,
have no doubt but that in the near fu-
ture this will be accomplished. Congress,
feel confident, will appropriate all the
money necessary TO improve the Della
ware river. Philadelphia, by its enter
prise and industrial growth certainly
merits this much, and in my opinion it
will not be many years before that city
becomes one Of the best shipping ports in
the United States. The work that is now
being done on the Delaware river will do
much TO further this interest.
Il have already approved the recon.
mendation Of Mayor Ashbridge for-an ap-
preparation Of 100000 to be used in pre-
pairing plans for the improvement Of the
Delaware and Schuylkill rivers, and the
matter is now before the Secretary OF
War for his notion -

FAILED TO RAISE VESSEL
Unsuccessful Attempt to Float the Tug
Rambler Made Yesterday

After working for several hours yes
terday afternoon, in an effort 70 raise the
tug Rambler, which was burned at Third
street bridge last week, the attempt was
given up and the vessel still lies on the
bottom of the Christiana river.
The pile driver Wells, the tug Frank J.
Pidgeon and the Liberty fire engine took
part in the attempt, but it was impossible
to raise the sunken craft and the effort
was abandoned.
1t is probable that Captain Brink will
employ lighters for the work, but it viii
be necessary to tow the Rambler out
farther into the stream before the boat
can be raised in that manner.
