Fresh from their victory at Media,
the Wilmington basketball team
win play the ST. Luke's Guild. Of Chess
ter Pa at the Country Rink tonight.
The Media team had won seventeen

sulting I'm a victory for the home team
by one goal, the score being % to 21.
The excitement was so intense that

was fully a half hour before quiet was
restored sufficiently for the game TO
proceed.
return engagement for the Media
boys viii be arranged soon on tho

That there will be some fast doings on

horses are showing up as the racing sea-

many horsemen that should the rule be

race for two and three-year-olds. This
would stimulate the breeders to race their

It is now possible to secure well bred

SAYS RAILROADS
DISREGARD LAW
dupont Powder Co. Official
at Hearing Before Con-
ereSSiOna Committee

That the railroad companies are persist
entity violating the laws governing the
carrying Of explosives was the assertion
made by W. B. Dwinnell, Of this city, an
official of the development department
of the L. l. DUPONT de Nemours Powder
Company before the House Committee on
Interstate and Foreign Commerce at
Washington on Saturday.
The committee was discussing a new
law to safeguard the transportation OF
explosives, and in the course of the hear
ing an impromptu lecture on high ex-
plosives was delivered by DIR. Charles p.
Dudley, Of Altoona, Pa, president Of the
Bureau FOR the Safe Transportation OF
Explosives. comprising representatives OF
ninety-three railroads owning and operat-
ing seventy per cent. OF the steam road
trackage Of the United States.
Mr.. Dudley appeared in support Of the
Sherman bill whose object is to promote
the safe transportation, interstate COM
'merce Of explosives and other dangerous
articles. This bill provides strict regula-
lions for the commercial transportation
Of dynamite. gunpowder or other explO-
sives excepting small arms ammunition.
Mr.. Dwinnel's Statement.
With Dr. Dudley appeared Mr.. OWN
nell I'm advocacy of the bill.
THE present laws governing transporta-
ton Of explosives" said Mr.. Dwinnell.
'were drawn some years before dynamite
became known as an article Of commerce
and to-day are so impractcable that in
order to obey them the railroads would

will be appreciated when I tell you. for
instance. that the principal revenues Of
the Pennsylvania Railroad are derived
from freight produced by the use OF
coal. iron and limestone. The use of high
explosives in blasting is one Of the big
commercial factors Of to-day The net re-
suit is that the railroads have been and
are to-day systematically and universally
violating the explosives laws.
Representative Mann Qll) said Il had
been asserted to him that the Explosives
Bureau is allied with the so-called pow
der combine and that the transportation
restrictions favored by the bureau would
operate seriously against the independent
manufacturers.
