ARCHER MAY Be ASSAILANT

tive Francis. went to West Chester
this afternoon to look at Jacob w.
Archer. who was arrested there yester-
day afternoon on the charge of muir
derously assaulting Mrs. Cora Wanner,
near that town. on Tuesday. It is
thought that Archer may have been
the man who feloniOusly assaulted Mrs.
Ferguson.
1t is said that Archer was working
on the Sellers farm the day Mrs. Fer
guson was assaulted. 1t is alleged that
Archer assaulted Mrs. Emma Cox, OF

Work on the Shellpot canal, which
the pennsylvania Railroad Company is
cutting through to Brandywine creek,
has been stopped for the present and
it is likely that the railroad company
Will change its plans.
II is probable that Shellpot creek
will be diverted to the Delaware river
instead of running into the Brandy
wine, as at present Much work had
been done when the company and the
property owners decided it would be
better to run the creek into the Dela-
ware. The railroad officials and the

MANY PEOPLE FAVOR
SRIPLEY FOR MARKET
Street and Sewer Directors Melvin
and johnson Think II Is Not
Wide Enough

Before the light question is settled,
the Directors of the Street and Sewer
may have the question Of
moving the street market from King
street to deal with. AS was stated in
the Evening Journal yesterday, the
Peoples Railway Company is contem-
plating doubletraclking its line on King
street. If this is done there will not
be room for the market wagons. Many
people favor removing the market TO
Shipley street
Last night Manager Crook, Of the
Peoples line, said he would double
track the street. According to his state
ment his franchise gives him the right
to do this without getting the consent
of the Street and Sewer Department
This morning Mr. Melvin said the
department had received no formal ap-
plicaton for permission to double
track the street. Mr.. Melvin admitted,
however. that Mr. Crook had infor-
mally said that he proposed making
application. Neither Mr.. Johnson nor
Mr.. Melvin would say whether the
consent of the department would be
given.
Both said they were opposed TO Ship
ley street for a street market because
it is narrow. French street. they
thought. was too far east Although
CITY Council has charge Of the street
market. naming and paying the clerk,
Mr.. Melvin and Mr.. Johnson thought

would have some authority in the mat
ter. inasmuch as it has charge Of the

CASE has BEEN A LONG ONE

The combine of city firemen, which
has existed since 1891, was legally en-
dorsed this morning, when, in Superior
Court, Chief Justice Lore issued a per-
emptory writ of mandamus to install
Michael T.. Conway, of the Weccacoe
Company. as chief Of the department
Exhaustive argument on points Of
law in the case was heard by the court
yesterday. The question was whether
the city ordinance of 1902, providing for
rotation in the election of Fire Depart
ment officers was or was not in con-
nict with the statute Of 1891, which
provides for the election in whatever
way the firemen may deem proper The
answer of the court declares that the
statute and the ordinance are not con-
sistent in their terms, and upholds the
validity of the statue.
The opinion of the court was an
nounced immediatel yafter the opening
of the tribunal Chief Justice Lore af-
terward issued the order
Victors Are Jubiant
When the combine firemen theard the
news they celebrated the victory by a
generous ringing of the house bells.
In all probability some formal celebra-
tion will be fixed for one night next
week.
The order Of the court means that
on Monday of next week John p.
Welsh, James Palfrey and Harry Wiley
will retire ne Officers of the dpnart-
ment in favor Of Michael r. Conway,
chief; Robert Porter, first assistant,
and Thomas Starr, second assistant.

London, June 24.-Those around
King Edward continue to be aston
ished at his rapid recovery. The
slightly annoying symptoms mentioned
in the bulletin issued at IL o'clock last
night are quite inconsequential com
pared to the fact that mis- majesty

all last evening, and only left him af-
ter he had fallen into peaceful sleep.
The following bulletin was posted
at Buckingham Palace at IL o'clock
last night:
1.-The king passed a fairly comfort
able day and has maintained his
strength. There is a returning desire
for food, which has been very carefully
given. There has been some return Of
pain in the wound.
"TREVES,
Taking.
BARLOW"
Mention by the kings doctors of the
care with which food is administered
to the royal patient and of the return
of pain in the wound can safely be
taken as merely an earnest Of their
conscientious intention to make public
the slightest adverse symptom, how
ever unimportant. The kings courage
and good temper are remarkable, and
yesterday he personally wrote several
kilograms and one or two notes.

in every way. The return of pain in
