LID EMPLOYE
UNDER ARREST
jimeS Haney Charged With
the Larceny OF a Brass
Casting

Among the prisoners arraigned in
City Court this morning was John
Haney. who was charged with the
larceny Of a pig Of brass. the property
Of the Pusey and Jones Company
1t was charged at the hearing that
Haney entered an out building in the
yards Of the company and took there
from rne brass. which was concealed in
a bag. which had been stuffed into the
end of a piece of pipe. For some
months the Pusey and Jones Company
has been missing pieces of finished
brass castings and has been unable to
detect the thief. Several days ago an
official Of the firm was notified that a
bag containing the casting. which
Haney is charged with taking, had
been discovered concealed in the ont
building Nothing was said of the oc-
currence. but a watch was placed on
theb uilding with the result that Haney
was seen to enter the place and take
from the bag the brass casting and
carry it off.
Chase was given by the watchers and
Haney discovering that he had been
detected threw away the brass. He
was captured. and when taken into the
office OF the general manager Of the
company stated that he had been en-
ployed by the firm for the past four
teen years. He denied placing the
brass in concealment and said he saw
/ it there yesterday for the first tin.e.
Bail was fixed to-day 'at 5000 for the
Court of General Sessions.
The Pusey and Jones Company is de-
teimined to break up the practice OF
employees or Of some outsiders stealing
brass from the plant. Sa frequent have
these thefts been and so deftly have
they been carried out that the hrm has
been unable to detect the offender.
Hereafter. however. a strict watch will
be keSt in an effort to arrest the guilty
parties.

ADDICKS And
THE OLD GUARD
Met Last N Sht at Turn Hall
and Go Through the Mo-
tiOnS to Keep Alive
FORTY OF CHOSEN THERE

What remains Of the once glorious
Union Republican party of Delaware
met last night in state convention at
Turn Hall and as the peerless leader,
]. Edward Addicks said, Went through
the motions" in order TO keep the SEM
blance of an organization.
These political heirs and successors
of the only Republican party in Della
ware numbered just forty, Of whom
seventeen were colored, and practically
the only enthusiasm in the convention
was created by a colored man and the
applause started by colored men.
Even Mr. Addicks' assertion that
"Our friends in Kent county after a
hard fight have downed Alice" failed
to awake more than an appreciative
rumble or stir a spark Of patriotism in
the breasts Of his followers.
The convention met last night in an
adjourned meeting from the morning,
at which time twenty-eight delegates
assembled and adjourned until even
ing in order that Kent county might be
heard from.
Kent county was not heard from by
the attendance OF any delegates or
representative but Mr.. Addicks got
some of his friends there on the long
distance telephone and was able to an
nounce the result Of the days struggle
there.
What Was Done.
The work accomplished by the con-
vention may be summed up as follows;
The endorsement Of the State ticket
nominated by the Republican organiza-
ton convention at Dover including
Hiram r. Burton for Congress, Thom-
as n. Rawlins for state Treasurer and
Thomas c. Roe for State Auditor; the
adoption Of a platform in which SPECIAL
emphasis was made upon equality OF
negroes and whites at the ballot box
and condemned the actions of United
States Senator ]. Frank Alec; the
adoption Of the FIVE pointed star as the
emblem and Union Republican as the
name Of the party; and the election Of
new state committee.
