After the demonstration Of satur-

appears to me that there should be
no room for discussion on the ques-
ton Of a paid fire department. If
anyone doubted that Wilmington had
capable fire fighting apparatus and
capable men to handle it, that doubt
must Of necessity have been dispelled
by Saturdays turnout. The engine
Of the Union Company Is a model In
every respect, and capable Of holding
its own with the best OF them. The
Independence and Brandywine Com
panies viii soon add steamers TO their
equipments and each company has a
full complement Of efficient men.
These together with the old compan es
make up a fire department Of which
any city might be proud AS for it's
efficiency the work done by the Will
mington engines at the Baltimore FIRE
demonstrated what our fighters can
do in time Of need. The fire depart
ment should stand as It is, as ! fail
to see any material change for the
better which could be brought about
by a paid fire department.

RUINED SEASON
Great Loss in Tomato Crop
in Delaware. Maryland

PENNsGRovE. Sept. s-A tomato
packer from Baltimore has been all over
Salem county, or that portion in which
tomatoes were extensively planted tins
season. and states that the wet weather
viii cause a tremendous loss to the grow
ers. The same conditions exist in Dela-
ware and Maryland.
He is after tomatoes for shipment 10
Baltimore, and. states that.there would
be better demand If the syndicate,
known as the Tomato Trust" had NOT
been formed Last year this trust bought
all the canned tomatoes and forced the
price up to s1.25 per dozen cans, The price
was so high that .he public did not con
sumo the goods, and when the early to-
matoes got to the Gamers. this year the
price went down to "a cents dozen. The
trust has lost heavily.
Because Of the high price Of tomarots
last fail an extra demand was expected
this year. and everybody in the produc-
ing district put in tomatoes.
A company was organized at thus
place by Walter NJ. Stanton to buy and
transport tomatoes from along the Deln-
ware river TO Baltimore. All the wharfage
was rented, with the object Of getting a
monopoly. Contracts were made with the
farmers at Is cents a basket for tomatoes.
There seemed to be something wrong
early in July, when there was glus in
the market, and thousands OF baskets OF
tomatoes rotted before they left tile
farmers or before they reached Baltimore.
At one time 5000 baskets were waitins

The attempt TO monopolize the old
wharves has resulted in the building OF
other wharves, and some Of these have
not been used because of lack Of trans
portation facilities. Late tomatoes arc
now coming in, and what the next two
weeks will bring forth is question. The
demand at present is not great
