DEMAND SUNDAY
TRAFFIC SOUTH
Down State People Wish Della
ware Road Trains to
Run Sunday

The residents of the State of Della
ware located along the Delaware ran
road have for many years been deprlN.
ed Of the advantage OF railroad traNe'
on Sunday because Of a long eAlsiins
fiction hat the Delaware railroad couiu
not legally run trains ON the Sabbatn
dav AS a matter of fact the railroad
docs run one Sunday train which
leaves Wilmington at ten minutes past
,nidnirht saturday and goes throughout
the length of the road.
For years the shoppers in the lower
sections of tho state have been handi-
cappsd by this lack of accommodation
In railroad facilities II also makes the
patrons of the road who desire to visit
on business any down state town re-
main over Sunday IF his trip should
last late into Saturday
The peorle who are the real suffer
ors. however are those who desire TO
visit this city on a shopping expedition
and who are kept from doing so be-
cause of the lack Of railroad accommo-
dations which necossitates their re-
naming here over Sunday and then
returns Them late Monday morning.
4 II is believed that the railroad has
heretofore made the excuse for the
absence OF any Sunday trains other
than the cary train spoken Of that the
traffic did not warrant their being run.
The advocates IN favor of a Sunday
schedule claim that once inaugurated
the trains win be crowded and that
when given a chance the people will
travel.
Attempts are now being made to
bring the matter in a positive form
before the Delaware road officials In
the hope that they may adjust matters
to the satisfaction of the citizens and
merchants of this city and the many
would-be patrons along the line Of the
road.

NATURAL DEATH
SAY THE POLICE
In Case Of Pole Who Was
Supposed TO Have Been
Murdered

AS the result of post mortem eN-
animation. Coroners Physician j. w.
Basuan and County Physician H. w.
Briggs yesterday. ay.ofternoon reached the
conclusion that wladyslaw Woycz-
chowsM. better known as Edward
FrankowslSi. whose body was found on
the Pennsylvania railroad at Third and
Pine streets carly yesterday morning,
met death from exposure. They also
learned that the man had had a violent
hemorrhage Of the Kidneys
Knife Caused Wounds.
The scratches about the mans throat
and head are accounted for by the
dead mans wife. who asserts that she
caused the wounds herself. She is
much larger than her husband and IN
a quarrel on Sunday evening she
clutched him by the throat with one
hand and pummeled him with the other,
causing the bruises and discolored eye,
which convinced the police at first that
the victim had been murdered.
While the womans statement clears
up the questions Of the wounds, there
sun remains the fact that the dead
mans pockets were turned inside out,
and his time key and empty pay envel-
one found beside him. The police
however believe that the man himself
was responsible for these evidences OF
a possible robbery.
The dead mans wife said her hus-
band came home from his worf on
Tuesday night and gave her 81 of the
.SS his weekly Day. and 81 moro he had
palot Kolewsl a boarder, TO buy a pain
Of working trousers and that was the
last she heard of him.
Kolewski does not know how he be-
came separated from his companion

in front of WOODBURY. and Martin halls
In a bloody conflict.
Freshmen of the university attempt
ed to nail flag to one Of the college
buildings yesterday morning and a
fight ensued between the freshmen
and number of the sophomore class.
The tide Of battle was reached in the
street directely in front of the library
and the belligerents wiped up a good.
ly portion of dust from the street.
The flag of the freshmen was torn in
a number of places and one husky
sophomore succeeded in getting his
hands on the biggest piece and sped
down the street with freshmen at his
heels. Some Of the men lost their
hats in the scuffie and others had
their clothing torn.
In the evening the war was re.

MISTAKES lN HISTORY.

The Parkersburg Dispatch, speak.
ing of the ancestry of Miss Alberta
Gallatin. who is starring this season
in Cousin Kate" and who will be at
the Grand Opera House tonight,
says:
And moreover, she is descend.
ant of Albert Gallatin. one of the
signers Of the Declaration of indie.
pendence. and the first Secretary of
the Navy under George Washington"
This item contains many errors
which should be corrected. Mr.. Gal.
latin did not sign the Declaration of
Independence. He was born in &C.
neva, Switzerland, January, 20, 1761.
and hence was only about Is years old
when the Declaration of Independ-
ence was signed. He came to this
country in 17s5. In 1898 the Legisla-
ture of Pennsylvania elected him Uni
ted States Senator, but he was de.
clared ineligible because he had not
been a citizen of the United States
nine years, as required by the Con-
stitution Of the United States.
Then he was not Secretary of the
Navy under George Washington.
There was no such office during
washington's administration. Until
1913 the War and Navy constituted
one department. General Knox was
the first Secretary of War and Navy.
Gallatin was not member of the
Cabinet until he was appointed Sec.
rotary Of the Treasury by President
Jefferson in 1902. He was continued
as Secretary of the Treasury by Presi-
dent Madison until 1914. serving in all
more than IL years, He was an ex.
treme anti-Federalist. From 1895 to
1901 he served as a representative in
Congress from Pennsylvania. and
showed himself a bitter anti-Federal
partisan. In a speech which created
quite sensation at the time, deliver.
ed in Congress while Washington was
still President, referring to the treaty
negotiated by Judge Jay with Eng
land, he charged Washington and
Judge Jay with having "pusillani.
mously surrendered the honor of their
country. ~
George Cabot, of Massachusetts,
was the first person appointed Secre-
tary of the Navy. He was appointed
by President John Adams, May 8.
1888, and declined to serve, where.
upon Benjamin stoddert, of Mary
land. was appointed May 81. 1898.
