NO MOVE TO
FURNISH POWER
New Company Not Yet Re-
veaIine and Evidence Of
Fulfilling Terms

The promised announcement Of the
OF the Commercial
Light. Heat and Power Company and
the immediate commencing OF build
ing operations upon the gas plant has
not as yet taken place and there are
many who are predicting that it never
win 10 any great advantage to VIII
mlngton.
Reorganization plans were in the
hands of local counsel for the COM
pnny and owing TO the absence Of An
thony Higgins from the city no one
seems authorized TO speak for or on
behalf of the Commercial Company.
The general impression, however, Is
that the Commercial Company has
been reorganlzed quietly and that the
persons interested financially in the
corporation propose to remain IN the
background
Inquiry at the office OF Anthony
Higgins, who acted as counsel for the
Commercial Company IN obtaining the
franchise elected the Information that
Mr. Higgins was out % town and
fwould remain so for several days
"Thcn you do not know whether he
has effected the reorganization OF the
Commercial Light, Heat and Power
Company" was asked.
"Ah-I-you win have 10 see Mr..
Higgins about that He has that mat
ter In hand" came the hesitating re-
ply
'Is there anyone else in the city
who is In charge of the Commercial
Company affairs In Mr.. Higgins abb
sence?'
Il cannot answer that. When the
Senator returns no doubt he win be
glad to give you any facts which he
possesses regarding the company or
it's plans"
Almost a month has passed since
the franchise was granted and within
sixty days the first payment Of $12.-
500 becomes due and payable to the
city under the conditions OF accept
ance Of the franchise by the company.
The Commercial Company must also
spend within the next five months at
least $4,000 upon the construction OF
la gas plant.
Despite the terms offered by the new
company there are a number OF doubt
ing Thomases who seem TO think the
whole enterprise a promoters scheme
These are now agreeing with Mayor
Wilson I'm his opinion that 1t might
have been wiser to know something
Of the people who promise so much.

AFTER SITE FOR
GUN FACTORY
Colonel Cullen Said TO Be
Here Looking For Ground
For Big Plant

Rumors to the effect that Colonel o.
c. Cullen, Of Minneapolis. Mimi, who
has been visiting in this city, is en-
deavoring to get a suitable site here
upon which to erect a large plant to
manufacture the Cullen ball bearing
rifle gun, seem to have the ear-marxs
Of truth. 1t is understood that the
soldier and inventor has a well known
local firm of attorneys engaged in
finding a suitable site for the gun
factory and arranging for its pur-
chase.
Just now Colonel Cullen is having
guns manufactured i'm this country in
plants owned by others, and it is his
aim 10 erect a factory Of his own in
this city. He has been heard to ex-
press himself as well pleased with
Wilmington and thinks the facilities
for shipping from this point excel
lent.
New Gun a Success.
The Cullen ball bearing rifle gun
was invented by Colonel Cullen and
it was recently given a severe test by
government officers at Sandy Hook.
This test. according to reports, was in
every way satisfactory.
Other inventions Of Colonel Cullen
are the automatic pistol and auto
propulsive shells. Both of which have
been favorably commented upon.
Will Employ Many Men.
Should the gun factory be located
here it will mean work for a large
force of men while large armament
will most likely be made. slx-pounders
will principally be manufactured.

three of his thirty and his ticket was
then declared elected unanimously.

Roe, %; Anthony, 12; Dick, 6.
Addicl<s nnnovs Moore.
Addicks appeared in the Wilmington
caucus at 1890 o'clock in the Opera
House, entering upon tho proxy of
George Byrd, of the Ninth ward. The
gas mans last words as the left the
building where Kents caucus was go
ing in session was to Thomas G.
Moore, whom he kept calling from the
caucus continually. He said: RE-
member, what Tom Moore is for Ad-
dicks is for and ! trust you implicitly"
Ut WAS suggested that Addicks was an
noying and dogging Senator Moore be-
cause Moore had been previously cho-
sen as convention chairman. He want
led the privilege of saying that the
anti-Add.cks men were running the
convention. The Kent vote followed
here. Hiram r. Burton. nominated by
Caleb r. Layton. was the unanimous
choice of the caucus for Sussex coun-
ty. Layton declared in his speech.
"The Republicans of Sussex county
are the greatest patriots and party
workers in the world, and we are 60
ing to show to the world that we are
united and harmonious and are going
to make Democratic misrule a thing
Of the forgotten past" He paid a high
tribute to DR.. Burton's congressional
career.
Sussex Backs Burton.
The Sussex county caucus assem-
bled in the Dover Republican Clubs
room and the two factions agreed upon
Senator Penniwell as the chairman and
Charles w. Vessels as secretary. A

Laurel, -. The nomination Of Cahall.
/ Wright and Curry was then made un-
animous and the question of a Con-
/ gresham was taken up. Magistrate
Tyre. of Delmar, nominated DR.. Bur-
ton. DR. Layton made a ringing speeoh
lseconding the nomination of Dr. Bur
ton. Thomas n Rawlins was later
named as Sussex's choice for Treas
lurer. Robert s. Huston seconded tie
nomination for Treasurer Rawlins.
lsaying; "He is a man Of spotless char
acter. He has begun certain invesri-
cations of this State which must not
be destroyed and which are i'm such o
condition that only Thomas n. Raw
Ilins can carry them into effect"
Burton and Rawlins were unari-
mously chosen.
Frederick walls was nominated for

llins. but withdrew before the vote was
taken. and the unanimous choice Of
