place the present Court House build
ing, at Tenth and Market streets. q
building to be in keeping with the
improvements already projected by
the duPonts.
Members of the Levy Court are
holding back on the matter of max
ing improvements to the present
Court House. IL was said that the
duPonts may have some proposition
to make TO the county and the con-
templated enlargement OF the pres
ent building by the county is not be-
ing acted on so that the Levy Court
men may confer with some Of the du-

The rumor today was to the effect
that Alfred I. DUPONT might erect a
county and city building and present
Il to the people. He denied the story,
through his private secretary. saying
that there was no truth in It. There
are persisted reports, however, that
