$I6,995 MORE
FOR STATE TROOPS
Delaware to Benefit Under
the Provisions of
Dick Bill

Delaware will receive s1s.995 in
equipment from the national treasury
this year for fits militia under the Dick
Law merging all the military organi-
cations in the country into the United
states Army as a reserve. The law
went into effect yesterday. Pennsyl-
vania win get about S277 900 and New
Jersey 100000. This does not include
any share Of the s., ,000, 900 appropriation
under the act of May, 1908, for extra
equipment
The new law will give the United
States Government at least $4,000 men,
fully equipped and ready to take the
field within as hours. The state Gov
ernments, however. still retain direct
control Of their militia. The uniform
ing and arming Of the State troops so
as to conform to the regulars has pro-
ceeded rapidly.
Adjutsnt- General I. p. Wickersham
said this morning that Delaware 8
eqipment as provided by the appro-
priation TO this State would be re-
ceived following inspections by a
regular army officer this year. The
time for the inspections has not yet
been set.
The annual State inspections under
the State militia law will be conducted
as usual.

HEALD OFFERS
STATION SITE
Delaware Congressman Wants
Immigrant Station Located
at Delaware City

Congressman William II. Heald, Of
Delaware. yesterday offered Secretary
Nagei. Of the State Department at
Washington, a site at Delaware city
for an immigrant station. Mr.. Heald
believes that the immigrants should be
landed there and kept out Of the large
cities Ele also probably has a view
o. the commercial interests OF Della
ware. since an immigrant station az
Delaware city would have effect on
the Industries Of Wilmington and other
parts OF the State. IL would be a
boom especially TO the lower part OF
the State, where hundreds OF farmers
are in need Of help on their farms.
Some time ago a site below New Cas-
tie was suggested. but the idea WIS
rolinquishcd I'm the discussion attending
the proposed site near Philadelphia.
Now Chester n making q vigorous ef-
fort 20 get the station, and hundreds
OF telegrams have been sent from there
to Secretary Nagel offering him vari-
GUS sites there. Congressman Butler
Of Pennsylvania. is aiding this move
ment. Congressman Moore and Foulk-
rod. Of that State. offered 10 get the
entire Philadelphia delegation 10 ap-
pear before the secretary TO advocate
Chester in case he should decide not TO
accept any site in Philadelphia
In the meanwhile. Congressman
Heald will continue his effort TO have
a Delaware site selected.

This Improvement at ESti-

The War Department sent to Con-
gress yesterday it's report on the sur
vey for the improvement of the Leip-
sic river, a tidal stream, tributary to
the Delaware Bay
Captain l.. Fl. Rand, the officer who
made the survey, submitted a project
at a cost Of s94,5OO providing for a
seven-foot low water depth from Del
aware Bay to the vicinity Of oarrison's s
mill. at the head tide with widths of
100 feet across the bay and so. 60 and
40 feet in designated reaches above.
including five cut-offs and turning
basin. But after consideration of
past and prospective commerce in
volved he reaches the conclusion that
the expenditure required TO carry out
this improvement In its entirety is not
at present warranted. He believes,
however, that the full improvement
planned will not be necessary to per-
init the expected commercial develop
ment. and recommends that three of
the five cut-offs be undertaken at once
to avoid the worst bends and longest
detours. leaving the question of COM
pleting the project to be determined
later.
He proposes a depth Of six feet and
a width of 80 feet for these cut-offs,
and with these dimensions estimates
their cost at Sfs.50O.

ANTI-MEAT
FIGHT SPREADS
Local Petitions May Contain
1000 Signatures Before
End of Next Week
NO GENERAL REDUCTION
In PRICES AS YET

A dozen more names were added to-
day to the anti-meat eating pledge
originated by City Court Judge Coch-
ran and I'm charge of Clerk of City
Court Sasse. There is growing inter-
est in the movement and 1t is probable
that by the end of next week there
win be more than 1000 signatures.
DR. Emil Scharf, president of the
Anti-Meat Eating League, who has
been working here, will go to Philadel-
phia to encourage the movement there.
The meat crusade has spread so
rapidly as TO assume national char
acter.
Ccincidently come announcements
from Milwaukee and Cleveland that
the price Of meat has dropped. In
Milwaukee two retail butchers quoted
porterhouse and sirloin steak at 10
cents a pound and other meats in pro-
portion. The wholesale price Of beef
fell off Is cents 100 pounds in Cleve-
land.
As yet no general reduction in the
price Of meats has been announced
here, although there was noticeable
falling off to-day In the sales of meat.
Pork. in particular was in slight de-
mand. Many sales of poultry were
reported at about the usual prices.
Plan to Reduce Prices.
The effect OF the crusade is to turn
round the law of supply and demand
which the dealers have been quoting
so as to make a reduction in prices
inevitable. AS soon as the demand
slackens, the originators say, the sup
ply is bound to catch up and so the
balance will be adjusted. The Wash
ington plan, which has been adopted
by the housekeepers of Wilmington,
s. thus explained by Doctor Scharf;
I've are tired of investigating and
continually finding that the price OF
food is always rising. We want ac-
ton now. The one way to compel a
reduction in the exorbitant prices of
food products is TO refuse to consume
them. The plan has never failed"
From Denver, Samuel Dutton. presi-
dent of the Western Hotel Mems Pro-
tective Association, announced that a
proposal to cut down the consumption
Of meat would be brought before his
organization at a meeting in Chicago
January 81.
Dispatches from New York, Atlanta
Kansas City. Omaha Memphis, Pitts
burg aud other cities tell OF the rapic
growth OF the meat fast.
Cleveland. credited with being ths
originator Of the scheme, has 100000
names enrolled, while Kansas City re
ports So,00Q
