BROTHER WISHES
 HER DEAD
Story of Abuse and COnspir.
 aCy Heaped Upon His Sis ter by P. Sax

According to the story told below by Fannie Sax, sister of P. Sax, a clothing merchant on Main street, the girl has been made the victim of two petty schemers, who had the unmiti. gated gall to set price of SIS pef month on her services as seamstress in their store at Lowell, after induc- ing the young lady to leave good position at the Copper Queen.
 The sister tells of further mistreat- ment at the hands of this fat and sassy brother. who would grow rich at the expense of her time and labor at the munificent salary of SIS per month. On one occasion he told her he wished she was dead, and on an. other, according to the girls pitiful story, thlE tender @ hearted brother threw her out of doors and forced her to seek aid at the hands of kindly lneighbors-
 l It is reported that the Fannie Sax lversus L. l. DTeeben case will again come before Justice Hogan at Lowell this morning. Although Miss Sax got judgment for only S25 of the S63 which she alleges is due her for sewing, the plaintie insists that he will not pay her a cent, but will fight the case through all the courts. P. Sax is a brother of Fannie Sax. He admitted I on the witness stand that the sl5 which she drew was to be sent tc their father for his support, and he asks that this be considered as all oi l brothers-in-law and partners in the Lowell store against which Miss Sax l is bringing suit to collect wages due her for sewing.
 l Miss Sax, when asked for state
 ment by representative of the Re view yesterday, said:
 ''P. Sax, my brother, and Dreeber are conspiring against me to beat me out of what they eve me for sewing
 My brother has never liked me, ana told me once he wished l was dead J He came home one night, when l was working for him as domestic, and threw my trunk and clothes out in the street and ordered me to leave the premises. l had to leave, and as he
 would not pay me cent be owed me was at the mercy of the neighbors think he had been drinking or he
 would not have done this. .~4
 When I went to Lowell to go te work in the store, had been sewing for the Copper Queen store for which received s4 day. My brother in duced me to go to Lowell, saying he would see that l got a good salary The S15 which l drew 1 sent home to my father for his support, as iny | brother admitted on the witness stand i, When I wanted to leave they claimed that I agreed to work for s15 month I had to pay my board and room rent and anyone would know that ] could not work for a salary of this kind. could have gone to work in most any store for S4 day. Dreeben and my brother are partners in the Lowell store and if they can beat me out of the money it will be just that much in their pockets"
 On the witness stand Dreeben and Sax both .swore that Fannie agreed to work for SIS month. Sax swore, in addition, that he knew she had drawn her wages in full. but could not tell how much she had drawn. Attorney Ross, who is prosecuting the case for the woman, said that if they wanted to take an appeal to the district court, le would fight it.

THE COUNTY ASSESSMENT.

In referring TO the proposed new
county assessment of city property presi-
dent c. Candy Hopkins explains the in
structions given the assessors by tho
Levy Court as follows.
"Ihe Levy Court instructed the asses
Hors TO make a fair and equitable assess
ment. We had an impression that there
are properties in Wilmington that are
not even on the assessment lists, and we
told the assessors TO make am assessment
OF every property in the city, subject to
taxation, and TO omit none. Our object
is to get fair and equitable assessment.
II property is assessed too low we told
the asscssors to increase IT, Ii IL is as
nessed too high we told them to lower it
20 q proper figure"
"Were there any intructions for gen.
eral increase In the assessment Mr..
Hopkins was asked
There were no such Instruction. said
Mr.. Hopkins. Gas ! remarked before, our
object Is 10 get an assessment that win
Be fair TO all property owners and viii
include all taxable properties. We de-
sired this adjustment made so there
would be no mere copying Of the lists
that were used last year. We also called
attention to the ridiculously low number
Of horses assessed in Wilmington, and in
connection with this, Mr.. Scott pointed
out that even lame COW is assessed in
the country districts. The attention OF
the assessors at the time was called to
the law regulating assessment, which
provides that properties shall be assessed
at their supposed cash value"

While Official confirmation Is lacking,
there Is a well-credited report 20 The Ell
feet that the Pennsylvania Railroad 20.
contemplates supplying water to its en-
tire line between Wilmington and the
Susquehanna River, and probably as lar
north as Chester, from Buiort Lake, az
Christian, from which a large main is
now being laid to the company's right OF
way, near Newark.
The proposed new reservoir, near Shell
pot Park, which Is now being built for
The company, will, il is said, receive its
supply from this source, as viii also tho
water stations along the Maryland d.
vision within the limits stated. soon al
ter the construction OF the Shellpot reser-
voir was begun the company made APP
plication TO the Board of Water Commits
sioners Of Wilmington for city water,
but the request has never been acted
upon, and Il is understood that the Water
Department is not inclined 10 grant the
request. The matter was held up be-
cause Of an impression among the mem
bcrs that there might be some legal OBJ
lection, and, though the application was
made several months ago, nothing def
mite has been done, 80 far as is known.
The object of the reservoir is under
stood 10 be two-fold-to keep q sufficient
supply on hand all the time and also TO
furnish head that will make additional
pumping unnecessary.
The company has various water sta
tions along the road from which the en-
ptnes are fed. but It is belRael to be tho
inAsntion TO do away with all of them
where it is necessary for the engines TO
! stop 10 take water. The company has
been following this policy for some time
and il is now working ON that line.
Engines drawing through trains in
either direction have been taking water
Tor some time from trenches IN the
tracks 40 Ruthby, just above Newark,
which made il unnecessary for the en-
ginea 10 stop 10 repenish their supply.
II Is now proposed TO make stops for this
purpose in Philadelphia unnecessary.
+ Trenches are being CONSTRUCTED in the
trucks at Glonolden and when they arc
finished engines win take water there
from while running between Wilmington
and Philadelphia. Under The present ar
rangemcnt the engines ON local trains re-
ceive their water supply at the round
house IN each city before starting out
This, of course, does not cause loss of
time, tor the watering Is done while the
engines are idle, but matters are different
with respect 10 through trains between
Wilmington and New York After Oh,
Glenolden trench Is completed tn,
through engines between Washington
and New York win take water at Ruth.
by and again at Glonoldcn, which will b,
sufficient until Bristol ON the New York
division is reached. where there is also d
trench, and water win be taken from IN,
truck there
II is believed, therefore, that the com
pnny will be able, from the Bufort LAX,
source, partly through the Shellpot rcsor
voir and partly direct, to supply an OF
the water required for tho locomotives
and stations on the division. IL is sal,
that the mains will be laid along The
company's right Of way, SO that the,
can be tapped wherever il is desired L
do SO.

From present indications, the Penn
sylvania Railroad Co. will have its ele
waited railroad in this city in use for its
entire length, except between Lombard
and Justison streets, by the first of Feb
ruary. Hurried work is being done on
the lower end and it is being gotten into
shape for use, while the upper end is in
use as far south as Fifth street and the
remainder to Lombard street is being
closed up as rapidly as possible.
In order to get matters into proper
shape to use the lower end when the
track and bridges are ready, temporary
interlocking switch tower is being erect
ed in the west yard not far from the
Delaware Junction, which viii be equip
ped with Is levers and from which the
switches on the elevated road south of
French street station will be operated
The section of the elevated structure
between Lombard and Justison streets
cannot be used for some time, from the
fact that litigation interferes with the
completion of the structure at West
street and work on the new station has
not reached far enough to permit of the
completion of the section of the overhead
road there, although it is believed that if
the West street matter was out of the
way the company would hasten the work
at French street so as to make the ele-
waited structure continuous.
The upper end of the elevated road has
been in use for some time and assists
the company materially in cutting down
the time of trains, as there are no cross
ings above Fifth street about which the
engineers have to concern themselves.
When the lower end is put in use all
trains passing through the city or arriv-
ing from the south, over the Pennsyl
vania railroad, viii be run over it, in
Guiding those to and from the Delaware
road. Under the present arrangement
the Delaware trains use a single track
4 between the point where the Baltimore &
Ohio and Philadelphia & Reading tracks
cross the Pennsylvania tracks and Della
ware Junction, but after the elevated is
in use this single track will be shortened
very materially, for the Delaware trains
will use the Maryland division tracks to
the end of the elevated structure, which
is near the southern city limits. and from
that point the Delaware division win
branch off on one track, which crosses
the Christiana bridge and runs to the
point where the present double track
starts.
Orders have been issued by Superinten-
dent Barnard that the two tracks to the
elevated road at Front street shall be
placed in commission after the passage of
| the 81 train northbound on Wednesday
next. Many people will watch the first
train pass over the incline, which will be
the 2.O5 p. m. train southbound.
