lie buildings, met the judiciary at noon to
talk over the proposed improvements to
the County Court House As the Judges

Watson at 4 o'clock the conference was
postponed until o'clock.
d. J. Reinhardt, of the New Castle Law
Library to-day Inspected the building
plans prepared by the architects. Consider
able feeling is being displayed over the
proposed changes. Advocates OF the idea
to continue the present building to King
street say the proposed wings would be
nothing more or less than "barnacles -
Those in favor Of the wings retort that
the extension TO King street would be a
"carbuncle." One citizen sad the building
would remind him Of a bird in the nest
very small head and a big body.
The Levy Court has appropriated s25.O0C

the contests of DIR. c. M. Allmond and
Is. B. Allen, for the Offices Of city
treasurer and member of Council, from
the Second ward, respectively
1t is expected that the resolution
which Council directed City Solicitor

acted upon. Mr.. Brady said he had
done some work on it but would not
complete it until this afternoon, at
which time he had an appointment
with Councilman John ]. McGovern.
chairman OF the law committee OF
Council.
The resolution looking to the sustain

BE It Resolved by Council. That the
chairman OF the law committee be and

rected to confer with the city solicitor.
and have prepared resolutions sustaining
the contention OF the contestants"
Whether the Republican Councilmen
will sustain the contests tonight and will
vote TO oust Councilman Rash and City
Treasurer Ross remains to be seen. II
was said today that following the count
ing out OF City Treasurer Ross the mat
ter in all probability will be taken into
courts and questions may be raised ar
fecting the validity Of the entire city
election and attacking the right Of Dem
ocrats and Republicans elected in June
to hold Office.
There is surprise among the Democrats
at the Republican Councilmen not oppos-
ing the resolution TO uphold the contes-

OF the Democrats We're looking for the
Republican trick" which they suspect is
lurking somewhere behind the action OF
