AMERICA MlRU WIKI
NOT INTER HARBOR

Three long blasts of a whistle this
morning announced the arrival of
the Togo liner America Maru in port.
She arrived outside about . o'clock
this morning, but, for some reason,
has not yet entered the harbor.
The America Maru has on board
a large amount of Christmas mail and
her passenger list is full, according
the agents of the company at the
Hackfeld Office. Steerage accOmmo-
cations were at a premium on the KO-
rea of the Pacific Mail line when, she
came down. and 1t is expected that
the Maru will have many Chinese
and Japanese on board.
1t is probable that the America
Maru will not enter the harbor at all
mail and passengers being brought
by launches, and, if so, she will con
tInue her voyage to the Orient to-
night

INDEPENDENTS GET
MARYLAND COMPANY

Indications that the Maryland Tele-
phone Company would be sold to the Bail
interest after the merger of the cleo ric
light companies of Baltimore, which
would effect the Wilmington Light, Power
and Telephone Company, which is afili-
ated with the Maryland Telephone Com
pany by a long distance agreement. were
dissipated yesterday at Baltimore by the
requirement Of the Maryland company by
a powerful independent c'mpany which
will operate the property IN competition
with the Bell interests.
The sale OF the Maryland Telephone
Company to an independent interest came
as a great surprise in Baltimore, as il had
been conceded that the Bell interests Had
the company and that an end would be
put to telephone competition in that city.
1t appears that the Bell Interests Were
permitting negotiations to hang fire in the
belief that after a brief time ihey could
dictate their own price. In the meantime,
however. negotiations had been opened
with the independents. who are forming
an independent telephone chain through
out the country in opposition to the Bell
Company These. negotiations end d n the
contamination Of the sale.
AS the independent interests that have
obtained control OF the Maryland Tele-
phone Company are largely interested in
the automatic telephone companies
throughout the Western States. il IS
stated that the probabilities are that Inn
mediate steps will Se taken for The install
lation Of the automatic in Baltimore.

Sanzone shot at officer John Ward

and to this is due the fact that Ward

Patrolman Ward testified In court

there was a drunken man down IN the

true. He called the patrol wagon

on its work and spirit Of push" at The

phia, at which Air Moore was made presi-
dent Of the Atlantic Deeper Waterway s
Association. He writes, "rhe Wilmington
Board OF Trade constituted a tower OF
strength at the convention and helped TO
make the waterways movement well nigh
irresistible" He referred especially TO
the large membership of ahe Wilmington
Board. At the same conference Frank Le-
lame. president Of the National Beard
of Trade compllmented the Wilmington
Board of Trade on its activity and large
membership.
At gatherings in which the trade boards
of other cities take part II has been noted
that in recent years the local board has
gained great prestige because of its large

BORING FOR OIL
DOWN THE STATE
PrOSpeCtOrS Think Lower
Delaware May Rival
Texas Fields

Lower Delaware ana upper Mary
land may become the rivals of the
Pennsylvania and Western oil fields.
Two men in different parts OF the
peninsula are boring for oil and tests
are being made. Two men near Del
mar are making a prospecting tour of
the. country and receiving expert opin-
ions from United States chemists.
They have obtained at least thirty oil
leases upon the property of farmers
and are now preparing to sink a big
well, which they believe will be a
''gusher." and VIII open up an entirely
new gas and Gil territory in the
country.
Men who have spent their lives in
the oil and gas fields OF Texas and
Pennsylvania have been at work in the
section. A small pipe was sunk. and
from it flowed a stream of gas many
feet in height. The men are certain
that they have not struck marsh gas,
as il is sometimes the case. The con-
dAtsans are the same as those which
surrounded Beaumont. Texas, the
center Of the great southwestern oil
district.

The December meeting Of the Board OF
Trade will be held Thursday evening.
December 1e. instead Of tomorrow night,
the regular meeting night, owing to the
absence of members who are attending tre
National Rivers and Harbors Congress.
which began fn Washington to-day 10
continue until Friday.
One Of the most interesting items to
come before the board at the meeting will
be the reading Of the report OF the dele
cation that attended the Atlantic Deeper
Waterways Conference in PHILADELPHIA.
AT the same meeting the delegates to the
convention Of the National Board Of Trade
in Washington win submit the PROPOSE
tions they will bring before the national
convention.
There will be an interesting discuss on
relative to the improvement of the Chris
tiana and Delaware river front. An inn
portant subject in regard to the Christi
ana will come up and it IS requested that
every firm on the Chrishana should be
represented at the meeting.
Fake" advertising schemes. which have
been annoying members of the board will
be further subject Of consideration. The
board has not approved of advertising
schemes OF any kind and announces that
It is the boards opinion that the most
profitable advertising is that which is
placed with the Wilmington newspapers.
Foreign shipments coming 'in bond"
through the local custom house viii be
brought up. If the foreign shipments are
permitted to be released in New York
or Philadelphia, those ports get the credit
of the receipts and in consequence are al
lowed congressional appropriations to
which this city should be entitled. AS the
material is actually shipped TO, and used
in Wilmington, the board will request the
members to have their foreign Shipments
come TO this city through the local GUS
tom house.
Interesting reports win be received from
the standing and special committees Of
the board. Considerable progress has been
made in forming an organization TO pro-
tect and develop the commercial and in
dustrial interests in the peninsula in the
