WILMINGTON QUIET.
Normal Conditions Again Prevail at
Scene Of Lynching.

WILMINGTON, Del, June H.-Thfs city
today is In it's normal condition. the ex-
element over the lynching OF George
White and the events following the burn
ing having entirely disappeared. The clos
ing Of the saloons last night had good
effect There were no drunken brawls
during the night and the police were not
called upon to quell any disturbances. BY
order Of the police commissioners all sa-
looms will again close their doors for the
night at 6 pm. today. The liquor dealers
have heartily acquiesced in the closing
movement and they are being commended
generally by the citizens for sacrificing
business to the peace and order of the city.
Precautionary plans adopted by the police
a few days ago will be kept In force until
all danger OF further lawlessness is past.
There was an apprehension that Satur-
day night would see more disorder. but
the closing Of the saloons, 1t is thought.
will have the effect Of keeping disorder at
a minimum. A detail of eighteen men Of
the LIST Regiment, National Guard, is on
duty in the armory today, protecting the
arms and ammunition in the building.
They will be relieved by another detail to-
night
Mayor Fisher at noon today sent out a
suggestion to all stOrekeepers that they
close their places Of business early tonight
in order that their employees may have an
opportunity of getting to their homes early.
The mayor thinks the closing Of the stores
will have tendency to keep people off the
streets and thus reduce the possibility of
large crowds gathering.
The cleaning of the streets tonight will
probably be abandoned by the street and
sewer department. Large numbers of
negroes engage in this work and some of
them have requested to be relieved from
duty tonight because they fear trouble
There have been persistent rumors afioat
that large bands of negroes from Chester
and Philadelphia will invade this city to-
night but the police authorities do not
was in communication with the police de-
partments of Philadelphia and Chester to-
day and the officials of those cities agreed
to assist the Wilmington police with regard
to any invasion that may be made.

GREAT BREWERY TRUST.
Gigantic Consolidation Being Formed
in New Jersey.

The New York Tribune says: con-
solfdation Of ten Newark lager beer
breweries into big corporation is in a
formative state, and il the combination
goes through, the other Newark breweries,
and some in Hudson, Union and Passaic
counties, may go in also. as a consolida,
ton of interests was favored by many OF
the breweries a few years ago.
The germ Of The possible combination is
the United States Brewering Company,
which was organized fourteen years ago by
an English syndicate which purchased the
Kruger and Trefz breweries of Newark.
the Hauck brewery of Harrison, N. j.: the
Hupfel brewery Of this city and the AL
bany Brewing Company Of Albany. The
capital stock, preferred and common, of the
English company was 100000.
Messrs. Kruger, Hauck and Hupfel who
managed the five breweries for the foreign
syndicate, recently purchased the remain
der OF the stock held by English stock
holders, so that five breweries are in pos
session OF the former American owners.
Messrs. Kruger, Hauck and HupfeI and
their associates control other breweries
in Newark. They are the Home the Es-
sex County. the Eagle and the Lyons. and
also. it is said. the Hill brewery. All OF
these are to be merged into the United
States Brewing Company. and after the
charter Of the latter expires in January
next, a new company will be Incorporated,
1t Is said. with a very large capital, proba-
bly, not less than s1OOOO,OOO.
If the Ballantine, Hensler, Feigenspan
and Weidenmayer breweries should join the
merger. Newark would have a gigantic
brewing company, and II the breweries of
Hudson. Union and Passaic counties fol-
low suit. all the big brewerfes in northern
New Jersey would be in the combination.
One of the men interested said that all the
breweries now controlled by Messrs.
Kruger, Hauck and Hupfel will be
merged into the United States company,
making a combination Of ten big breweries.
He could not say what the owners of other
breweries might do but as consolidation
of all kinds of business in order to econo-
nlize in the cost of production was the or
der at present. he believed the other brew
cries would eventually join the merger

derer's Sentence Considered.
The Department OF Justice is giving con-
sideration to petition for the commuta-
ton OF the death sentence Of Benjamin q.
Hill the wife murderer, who is under sem
tence to be hanged July "a Mr.. Easily
Smith. the pardon attorney. is going over
the papers, and when he has passed upon
them will present the case to Attorney
General Knox. who Is expected to make q
recommendation within a few days. and
forward the paper to the President for ac-
ton.
The petition for Communication Is presented
by citizens of Culpeper. Va. They repre-
sent that Hill has always borne a good
reputation; that he was a confederate SOL
der with a record for bravery and fidelity
to duty; that he committed the murder
while under the influence Of whisky and
belief that his wife had been unfaithful to
him: that he was not in his right mind at
the time, and that executive clemency ought
to be extended to him by reason of his good
character in the past and the conditions
under which he acted.
Hill, himself Is apparently Indifferent to
what becomes of his case. He has done
nothing to bring about a Communication of
his sentence and has rather stood against
anything of this kind. He has given his
friends no encouragement to seek commu-
tatfon, and the consequence Is that his
friends In the District have made no at
tempts to save his life.
