SUMMER TRAVEL
IS STILL HEAVY
Railroads and Steamboat
Lines Continue TO Handle
Vacation Travellers

Travel on the railroads and steam
boat lines is perhaps greater now than
at any other time this season, accord
ing to officials of the transportation
companies located in this city. While
many are returning from vacations
spent at the seaahore and in the noun
tains, the sales Of tickets to all the
well-known resorts indicate that
thousands delayed their outings until
this month. The heavy travel is fur
ther indicated by an increase in the
number of trunks handled at the sew
eral railroad stations and on the steam
boat wharves daily.
At French street station there are
rlles of trunks, and while many had
just been taken Off trains and were
awaiting delivery TO the homes of their
owners, q great number, it was said,
were checked for resorts. An increase
in baggage is also being felt by tho
Baliimcre and Ohio at this season Of
the year, as far as trunks are con-
.cerned.
Atlantic City Business Big.
All during the summer travel has
been heavy, especially to Atlantic City.
The railroads have on all special oc-
casions run extra trains to the resort
in addition TO the special Saturday
excursions. on nearly every regular
train to Atlantic City this summer an
extra coach or two had 20 be added
LAT Wilmington, thus showing that the
resort has been well patronized. Then,
too. IL has been necessary for the rail-
roads to add coaches to the New York
trains from time to time. There are
hundreds who, no matter what plans
they may make for spending their va
.cations by the seaside, seem to always
feel lost without day or two in New
York first
Many Special Excursions.
Special excursions to various resorts
have been run from time to time this
summer by all the railroads One of
the best indications of the increase
in travel on the railroads this year,
however. is TO be found in the reports
of cars borrowed from other roads. At
times all railroads find it necessary to
borrow passenger equipment from
friendly roads, sometimes for a day
and sometimes for a week at a time.
This summer, il is said, there has been
more borrowing than usual Whenever
a railroad finds itself getting short
of coaches and is unable TO get cars
from some far-away city where there
may be some extra equipment, another
road Is called on. The Pennsylvania on
a number Of occasions has had 10 bor-
row cars, and the Baltimore and Ohio
has had TO do more borrowing than
usual The railroads have sufficient
equipment 10 handle their business, but
every now and then, It is explained by
officials, the demand for accommoda-
tion on regular trains win increase
without any warning. and cars have
to be secured wherever possible
At the beginning Of the season the
jamestown travel was rather disap-
pointing, but during the last few weeks
il has been steadily on the increase.

SOME SCHOOLS
ARE CROWDED
superintendent Twitmyer To-
day Began Transferring
Some OF the Pupils

There are about ten thousand pupils
in the public schools Of Wilmington,
which is several hundred more than
during the opening week Of last year
after vacation.
While several OF the schools are fll-
ed and some have more applicants for
seats than can be accommodated, no
necessity has yet arisen for a new
school TO meet the increase.
Schools Nos. 13, II, 10, "a and % are
the most crowded at present, but Sup
erintendent George w. Twitmyer to-
day will begin a transfer of pupils to
other schools that will relieve the con-
gestion.
Every child who has applied has
been given a seat and will be cared
for" said Superintendent Twitmyer to-
lday Professor Twitmyer has been re-
lceiving statistics for the past two days
from the different schools, and today is
enabled to begin transfers of pupils to
other schools to relieve the crowded
condition.
School No. 13 contains the primary
as well as the grammar grades and is
situated at Thirteenth and Walnut
streets School No. II is in the east
ern end of the Ninth ward, and School
No. 10 is in the Eleventh ward. School
No. "a is at Washington street bridge,
and No. 2S is at Eighth and Adams
streets There will be no trouble in
transferring enough pupils from these
to other schools.
School No. %, the new structure in
the Ninth ward, also is well filled,
showing the necessity for the build
ing there. The school term is now
under way in earnest and studies have
been taken up according to schedule
since the promotions have been made.

DID THEIR DUTY.
How Eleven Midshipmen and Men
Met Death.

Met Death.
Colonel CAST and his assistants
made an inspection of the Minnesota's
launch which was sunk with the mid
shipmen and crew a week ago. Al
ter a careful examination, 1t was
found that the launch, while bound
from the jamestown exposition
grounds to the battleship Connecticut,
at Anchor off Old Point, had run into
steel hawser, such as are used In
towing gigantic car floats used by the
railroads.
1t YVES found that the brass PROV
of the launch showed signs OF nav
ing struck the hawser. The latter
then, no doubt, passed under the keel
of the tiny craft When the cable
struck that part Of the boat IL came
in contact with the condenser pipes.
They were torn away, and the shock
threw the launch over on its star
board side. The tiny craft then was
hurled to the bottom of Hampton
Roads and became the tomb of its
eleven occupants.
| Part of the hull of the launch was
crushed in by the impact with the
cable, but the steamboat inspectors
and the members of the naval board
| of inquiry expressed the unanimous
opinion that the Inflated vessel was
not struck by a barge or tug, but hac
colided with the cable between the
tug and car float.
The developments established the
| fact that the men charged with the
navigation of the launch were at theii
posts and did their duty when the ia
tai collision occurred.

When the cars struck the water
they were not badly damaged, but
the current Of the rapids carried them
to the whirlpool, where they were
broken to pieces. A brakeman had a

An Earthquake Theory.

son See, astronomer of the United
States naval observatory at Mare
Island, Cal, now in that city, visiting
his old boyhood home, says he has
discovered the one common cause of
earthquakes-the leakage OF the ocean
bottom, which gives rise TO steam
beneath the earth's crust.
He also points out that the chief
danger of the agitations is along the
sea coast.
1T seems to be clearly proved" said
DR.. See, that the earth is not con
tracing, but that the effects of cool
ing of the globe are insensible. The
earth may be slightly expanding. San
Francisco is not likely TO have anoth
