BOAT BUILDING
In DELAWARE
Many Vessels Turned Out in
Yards in Wilmington
Showing Good Year

To have read the article published sew
eral days ago IN which II was said that
four boats. namely the steamers olsen
and Mahoney. st. Helens. Delaware and
Pawnee were built at the yards Of the
Harlan and Hollingsworth Corporation
during the year, might lead one to be-
lieve that these vessels were the only
ones constructed here in 1907. AS a mat
ter Of fact the Harlan and Hollingsworth
Corporation built ten large boats as fol-
lows: The ocean going tugs El Chico and
El Toro for the Southern Pacific Rail-
road: the steamers above mentioned, the
wreclSing steamship Relief and the ferry
boats Bay Ridge Gowanus and Nassau.
This company also completed the govern
ment boat Sunhower Not including the
Sunnower. the total aggregate tonnage Of
the remaining ten vessels was 1924 tons.
Work on some Of these boats was start
ed. however. in the year 1906, but they
were all completed during the past year.
Aside from the shipbuilding done at
Harlon's. the Pusey and Jones Company
also turned out several boats. including
a revenue cutter. a steamer for the quar-
termaster's department Of the United
States Army.
The jackson and Sharp plant Of the
American Car and Foundry Company
here was also busy during the year build
ing scows and other similar craft.
There were also five steamers aggregat-
ing GAO tons built in Milford. Milton and

Walker represented in any way the
brotherhood Of Grace Church, which,
through Herbert H. Ward, bid On the

The sale created more interest than

WIDOWS BEHIND
Philadelphia Coroner Gives
Body TO Woman Who Mar
ried Baxter First

Coroner Jermon, Of Philadelphia, de-
cided a controversy yesterday between
two women, each of whom protested
that she was the lawful widow Of Will

Mrs. Mary Baxter, 1919 South Mel
Vile street. He awarded to her pos
session Of the mans body for inter-
ment
The rival claimant was Mabel Bax-
ter, 1916 Marston street, whose mar
rage certificate recorded the fact that
her wedding took place in this city in
1904, while the successful woman held
q certificate showing that she was mar
ried to Baxter in Philadelphia In 1901
Confident in the belief that she was
BaNter's only wife, Mrs. Mabel Baxter

arrangements for a funeral today. Bax-
ter was accidentally run over and killed
by a Reading Railway freight train al
Sixteenth and Hamilton streets on De-

gan an inquest yesterday he learned
for the first time that two women laid
claim to the title of widow, and he
postponed the investigation until he

body. Baxten's funeral will take place
on Monday from the Melville street

DOVER, Del. Jan. 4--When Henry

make no special charge for his services
which have lasted throughout the year,
there was some CONSERVATION in
committee
What. lawyer charging nothing FOR
service like that?" exclaimed Senator
Alvan b. Conner Of the commission
when he heard IL. and Il was some
time before Senator Conner could re-
cover his equilibrium
Il knew he would not charge the
commission any exorbitant sum for
his researches and investigations, but
TO charge nothing is simply ridiculous
and embarrasses us about asking
further information Of n man Of the
attainments of Mr. Ridgely. ] am in
favor Of reaching a compromise by FIX
ing a sum which he ought TO be paid,

cept IT, dividing II by half and making

SISTER DENOUNCES
WHITMORE AS MURDERER
Husband Of Woman Found Dead in PassaiC
Swamp Locked Up, But Makes No
Damaging Admissions

he did not hear them. Mrs. Smithers,
grasping the bars of the cell with both
hands, her face thrust as close to his
as possible, quivering with excitement
and anger yelled: "You murderer!
You Coward You Dogi You killed
my sister You struck her down as
you often threatened to do. You strip
ped her body and threw her into the
swamp"
Whitnore jumped. He started as
though he would strangle the woman,
then, taking in the group Of detectives,
he smiled and drawing himself up to
his full height he said:
"Did you come all the way over here
to kid me?"
II came to show you murdered my
sister," declared the almost frantic wo-
man. "1ou know you killed herl You
always hated her and you were never
satisfied except when you were beat
ing her. You are a murderer at
but here the woman tainted and had
to be carried away while Whitmore
with a half contemptuous smile on his
face resumed his former attitude.
Made No Admission.
The police plan had failed. He had
retained his composure and no damag-
ing admission had been surprised from
him. Mrs. Smithers and her husband,
after leaving the cell room, turned over
to Judge Branagan several letters and
telegrams they received from Mrs.
Whitmore between Christmas and New
Years. These purported to tell Of the
woman sending her effects to their
home and going visiting to Schenect-
ady. Judge Branagan at once called
in detectives to substantiate their ac-
curacy. The police openly charge that
these letters were written by Whit
more, and have obtained samples OF
his writing for comparison. But If
Whitmore actually killed his wife the
police confess 70 being mystified as to
why, when he stripped the body Of its
clothing he did not carry it away with
him and dispose of it in the river. They
admit his cleverness and say he does
not impress them with being the kind
of a man who would make the fatal
mistake of leaving palpable clues be-
hind when the body was stripped and
the rings taken Off the fingers to make
identification almost impossible.
Husbands Story.
''I saw my wife last on Christmas

when she came into the house I &c

GO OVER THE
TROLLEY ROUTE

1--WE we're received with open arms; the
residents OF Brandywine hundred GER
tainly want the line built" This was the
statement made to-day by Thomas II.
O'Connell. president Of the West Chester
and wilmington Electric Railway Com-
pany, following a trip throughout Bran
DIVINE hundred yesterday in the interest
OF the company. Mr. O'Connell was ac-
oompanied on the trip by John A. Os-
mond, an official Of the company, and
Isaac c. Elliott and J. Atwood Weldin'
who are interested in the trolley project.
The party followed the projected way Of
the trolley from the city to the State
line and all along the route the farmers
promised all aid possible looking TO the
construction Of the line.
The company has not yet filed appliea-
ton with the State Department, at Dover,

be done in a short time. however.

GOOD PROGRESS
ON SYNAGOGUE
Adas-KOdeSCh Congregation
Tabernacle May be fin
iShed Next Month

Rapid progress has been made on the
building of the ss5.Ooo synagogue Of
the Adas-Kodesch congregation, at
Sixth and French streets, and it will
probably be ready for occupancy by
the last Of next month. No arrange
ments have yet been made for a for
NAL dedication, however, and it is
probable that it will not be made until
sometime after the building has been
finished.
The building was started last July.
The architects were Kennedy Brothers,
and the builders are c. II. Tindall &
Son. The structure covers an area Of
s5 by so feet and, besides the large
auditorium, will contain a Sunday
school room in the basement and side
apartments. The exterior is Of iron
clay brick trimmed with grey stone,
and gives an admirable impression Of
modern church architecture. The au-
ditorium. which win be furnished in
keeping with the purpose Of the struc-
ture, will have a seating capacity of
500.
The structure is a striking evidence
Of the rapid growth and prosperity Of
the Jewish colony in Wilmington. The
congregation, which numbers about
600. now worships at Third and Mar
lxet streets, over the Western Union
Telegraph Company's offices, and is
without a rabbi. When the synagogue
lis completed the congregation viii call
a rabbi from one Of the Jewish theo-
logical seminaries Of New York.
The building committee, which is
,stul in need Of considerable money, has
made an appeal for funds TO the pub
llic. and many persons are responding
lliberally. The committee is as fol-
lows: Louis ToplSis, chairman; Abe
lTollin, chairman; Joseph Lichten-
baum. treasurer; George Winter Ma
