ANOTHER PLAN PROPOSED

Other Offices to Be Equally Divided, Alternat-

ing Down the Line Suggestion Meets Ap.
prOval of Senator Alice and W. Hastings.
All kinds of political rumors were
afoat in this State yesterday. The
Philadelphia daiIies had it that the
Republican factions had agreed on a
common ticket with w. W. Lobdell,
the car wheel manufacturer of Will
mington. for governor. This was al
terwards denied by Mr.. LObdell, who
declined to serve. Possibly the most
pertinent suggestions concerning har-
mony were those reputed to have ta-
ken place between Washington Hast
ings, regular, and Senator j. Frank
Alice. There is a.great desire for har-
mony and it is persistently rumOred
that the factions will come to terms
this week. In the conference that took
place between Mr.. Hastings and Sen
ator Alice, the latter is reported to
have said ''that he was extremely de
sirOus of effecting a reconciliation be-
tween our conflicting factions, and to
make it short, he submitted to Mr..
Hastings not as one in authority, but
simply as one who has the good of the
state and the party at heart-the fol-
lowing propositions: "First- That DR.
Joseph H. Chandler and Henry c..
Conrad, the nominees for governor of
the Regular and Union factions, re-
spectively, shall withdraw from their
respective tickets and not re-enter any
future contest or candidacy, nor allow
their names to be used in such, for that
Office during the present campaign.
Second-That the Union Republican
organization will concede to the Reg.
ular' Republican organization the
right and privilege to name, abso
lutely and without dictation or com
ment-barring the two above-nameC
present candidates-the candidate. fol
governor, which candidate they will
promise to Loyalty and faithfully sup
port under any and all circumstances
provided Third-That the Regular Re
publican organization will and pledgt
their candidate for governor to agree
if elected, to appoint to the Office o
Secretary of State of Delaware, whom
soever the Union Republican organi
zation, duly qualified, may select
nominate or choose for that office
Fourth-That the state and county
, nominations for Office shall be a
equally and equitably divided betwee
: the different candidates in the respeC
tive factions in the party as is found t
be possible, and in absolute good fait
= to all concerned"
/ Mr.. Hastings thoroughly and heart
e lily approves Senator Allee's propos
r ton. Having nothing to ask for hin
3 self, and only desiring the success {
+, the Republican party and elsewhere

IS thirty years and more-he hopes thf

His Friend, the Pipe.

Pilot Ashcraft, of the local pilot
office, has a pipe which he prizes very
highly. 1t is only a common briar
pipe, but it is dear to his heart, for it
has been a good companion of mis- for
a long time. Two years ago, while
taking the big steamship Atlas out,
Captain Ashcraft forgot the pipe. and
left it OH board. For thirteen months
he was without it and it seemed as if
he had lost a dear friend. Finally,
after the steamer returned to New
York, her commander sent the pipe to
Captain Ashcraft and he is very
careful of it.

TAKING CARE
OF THE SNOW.
Street Commissioner Has Usual
Force Of Eight Men
at Work.
NO AVAILABLE FUND.
Unable to Put More Men toIWork Owing to
the Money on CrosswaIks in the

Burke Gives Instructions to Police.

The snowfall of yesterday and last
night, although quite heavy, is being
taken care of by only the regular
street cleaning force of eight men.
They had the crosswalks in the bust
ness sections cleared off by noon and
at 3 o'clock there remained but a
small number of walks in the outlyin
districts which had not been temper
arily cleared.
Owing to the small force of men
only temporary relief can be afforded
until Monday when second and MOI g
thorough tour of the city will be
made.
There are several hundred cross
walks throughout the city and at
nearly all of them there are sewer
basins to be opened up, which has
been done in every case.
No carting was done today, but
may be necessary in the early part of
next week. There are no available
funds to be drawn upon in the case Of
an emergency like today's snowfall
for eight men are not sufficient to
accomplish what should be done.
The force is handicapped greatly by
the fact that treet.msCommissioner
Matt Weirup has been confined to his
home for week by illness. He hopes
to be able to go out by Monday.
Chief Burke instructed the patrol
men to notify the storekeepers and
residents on their various beats, whose
sidewalks were not cleaned and to soc
that the work was done. A large
majority Of the citizens obeyed tho
official warning and the walking about
town was very good long before noon
time.
The walks in City Hall Park were
cleared of the snow this morning.
The commissioner told News report
er this afternoon that he anticipated
no difficulty IN having the city we'll
cleared by nlghtfall.

New Brunswick, Jan. 30:-The jury
disagreed in the Jacob Rablnowitz
disorderly house case. They retired
at O'Clock yesterday afternoon and
remained out all night They came
In at 10. 80 clock this morning and
announced that they could not arrive
at verdict and they were discharged.
Judge Strong charged them on the
law with little reference to the facts
which he left to the Jury. The charge
was very fair to the defendant.
The lawyers summed up yesterday
the opening for the defense being
made by Lawyer George Plechner.
He spoke of the sentire case in
detail. 90 Judge Cowenhoven Efol'
lowed and based his argument on the
theory that the case was the outcome
OF personal greed on the part of Morris
Sloboaien, who owns the Rabinowit2
s,loon property, and first told Chief
Burke as to the kind of place it was,
and the revengeful spirit of Chief
Burke whom he declared wanted the
defendant punished because the Heb
sws in his ward went against him on
7 election day.
The chief ha more power in Perth
Amboy than the Governor of the State
and because of this every one of GER
tain classes were in fear of him. He
had made this charge and had not the
name of q single informant in the case
except Slobodien, when as every chief
should, he ought to have had the
names and their testimony in writing
before he made the complaint.
Prosecutor Voorhees, praised Chief
Burke as ons,of the best officers in
the State and one ever ready to do his
duty. He declared all the talk abou,
politics on the part of the chief was
an effort of the lawyer for the defense
to throw dust. The chief was Demo
crat and Officer Huff was Republic.
an. The defendant was Republican.
The prosecutor said he, himself, was
O Republican and if the defense was
correct he was irving to have Re.
publican saloonkeeper punished fol
tho sake of Chief Burke, Democrat,
and Lawyer Cowenhoven, Democrat,
was advocating Republicanism. This
was very strange mix-up indeed.
He scored the defendant and said he
should be convicted.

stood eight to four in favor of convic
tion. There has been no mention Of Q
retrial as yet.
