DELGADO CROWD ON RAMPAGE
Negro Who Mas Badly SIashed Up
Said Crowd Assaulted Him
Iscoortcd That They Caused Trouble
in Several Sections OF the City-Po-
lice Were Unable to Locate Them.
This IS the First Outbreak on Satur-
day Night i'm Some Weeks.

Anderson Sheets, a negro about SO
years of age, who bears the reputa-
ton of being very quiet and orderly,
was set upon last night at Front and
Nun streets by some six or eight
young white men and fearfully slash
ed up. This is the version that
Sheets gives of the affair and, as a
crowd OF young white men who were
said to lie from Delgado were report
ed as making a tour of the city and
creating trouble on more than one Oc-
c~asion, his story is believed by the
police. People who knew him On the
wharf where he worked spoke well
of him.
1t was about 8 o'clock when a tele-
phOne message was received at the
city hall stating that a man was in
the barbershOp Of Jake Willis at No.
8 North Water street who had been
dangerously cut. Sergeant Woodland
at once went to the barber shop to
see what occurred. He found Ander-
son Sheets lying in the barber shop
with his clothes drenched in blood. His
coat in the back was slashed to pieces
and there were several deep wounds
across his back. Blood had trickled
down his trOuSers and his shoes were
filled with blood. The negro told the
officers hat he was walking along
Front street near Ann when a crowd
of young white men approached MIN
One, he stated, knocked him down. and
another slaShed him across the back
with his knife. After the crowd left
Sheets got up and managed to walk
TO the negro barber shop.
Sergeant WOolard put in a call fol
the ambulance and the negro was
carried to the James Walker Memorial
hospital. 1t was found that the wounds
were not as serious rs were at frs;
thought but the man had lost a great
deal of blood. There were three gashes
across his back.
1t was reported On the streets tina
the Delgado crowd had cut several
people in different sections of the
city. One negro received a stab in the
shoulder, but it could not be learned
who did it Of the name of the mar

FEW M|sHAPs TO SHIPPING
Two Disasters on Cape Fear Bar
Not Due 70 Abolition of PiIotage
Clyde Line Steamers Have Never
Taken Local PilOts-PreSident of
Chamber of Commerce States That
There Have Been Fewer Mishaps
Since Compulsory Pilotage at This
Port Was Abolished Than Ever Be-
fore for Similar Period.

Editor Messenger:
Our attention has been called to edi-
torials in the New Bern Journal and
Mt. Olive Tribune commenting on
some small disasters to the shipping in
this port of recent date, and the sug-
gestion is made that these mishaps are
chargeable to the abolition Of compul-
sorry pilotage. 1t is significant that
Southport.
Fol the public information we will
state that there have been fewer mis-
haps to shipping at this port since the
abolition Of compulsory pilotage than
ever before for a like period as respects
disasters connected with the science Of
navigation. There has not been a
single instance of a disaster chargeable
to absence of Or insufficient pilotage
service since the compulsory laws were
repealed. 1t is true that two ships
have gone aground in the river below
Wilmington in the past few weeks, but
these disasters We're due to natural
causes. The Clyde steamer, under the
charge of a United States pilot, Clyde
steamers eve take a local pilot en-
eountered a stiff gale accompanied by
binding rain at a sharp angle in the
river: the rain was so heavy as to OBJ
scure all lights and buoys, and the
ship was driven ashore under these
conditions. The schooner Ames went
ashore at the same point by dragging
her anchor. This ship in tow of a
tug parted her hawser and anchored
while the tug returned to Wilmington
for equipment While TAU anchored a
sharp gale developed and drove her
ashore. The Ames was of light
draught, and very easily nayigated.
These are the extent OF the disasters
to shipping ON the Cape Fear river and
bar since the abolition of compulsory
pilOtage, and it will tax the ingenuity
J of our critics to establish thGt these
mishaps are in any way connected with
Or chargeable to, the pilotage S5rvice
maintained at this port. AS a matter
Gt fact, the pilotage service now rem
dered is more efficient than ever before.
Two crews are maintained at South
port, and cruising is yer a wider area
and more continuous than has been the
case within ten years. and these IN
ditions ar the direct results of the alb
clifton Of compulsory laws. All for
eign ships employ pilots, but very few
c~oasting vessels find it necessary to do
so. Ships of 81 feet draught are be-
ing brought to Wilmington under tow
without the service of a local pilot.
A few days since the schooner Tun-
mel went ashore off Frying Pan shoals
on her course from Brunswick, Ga, to
Philadelphia, and is now lying twenty
five miles off the Wilmington bar. Her
course did not bring her within the
Cape Fear pilotage zone. Our infor-
nation is that this vessel undertook to
go through an inner channel to shorten
the course
Yours truly,

Wilmington Chamber Commerce.
