Indications are that the Wilmington

buy the Delaware City line unless the
bonds of the company are accepted in
lieu of cash for the road.
Directors OF the Southern Traction
Company and owners of the New Cas-

last evening and decided not to oner
cash for the line.

DYING NOTE
TO HIS RACE
Reese Roberts, Executed for
Casey Murder, Gives Ad-
vice for Advancement
MAKES NO REFERENCE
TO CRIME AGAINST HIM

A letter of advice TO the American
negro is made public by J. Frank Ball
counsel for Reese w. Roberts, the
negro murderer, who paid tho death
penalty for the killing of Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert Casey, at the county
Workhouse, on July a.
The letter was written by Roberts
in his death cell, and he requested
his counsel to make it public after
his death. In it he makes no refer
ence to the crime for which he was
hanged.
In the letter Roberts declares that
tho negro race has not progressed as
it should have done, owing to lack of
self-reliance. Negroes, he says, are
being replaced by immigrants. They
educate their children, but the latter
are handicapped by race prejudice.
The letter concluded by advocating
temperance and thrift and condemn
ing early and imprOvident marriages.
The letter i'm full follows:

BY The United Press
WASHINGTON. July 27--In terms
OF the most bitter deuunciation for
those "who In the intensity Of their
desire to besmirch' all who invest" In
Alaska, operate upon the minds of
weak human interests" and prompt
fabrications of false testimony" Presi-
dent Taft yesterday told the Senate his
version of the circumstances leading
up to the entry of harbor rights on
Controller Bay, Alaska, by Richard s.
Ryan, and in virulent invoctive repudi-
ated the famous "Dlck to Dick" let

The message was almost Roose-

and uglier" word.
"The acrimony OF spirit and the in

of the government in Alaska, and in

WASHINGTON. July 27-"The

This was the opinion EXPRESSED to-
day by Clifford Pinchot, ox-forester

controversy Of the alleged grab of
the key to Alaska's transportation,
contained in a special message to the
Senate yesterday.
He asserted that the explanation
did not explain.

touched" he said. "In spite of all ex-
plantations. the fact remains that Mr..
Taft, in opening the lands around
Controller Bay without notice to the
public, has given the interests behind
Ryan an opportunity to acquire the
key to the channel of Controller Bay
before the public knew what was go
ing on.
The so-called Ballinger-Pinchot in-
vestigation opened the eyes of the
public TO the extensive and success
ful efforts which are being made 10
monopolize the resources Of Alaska.
The facts developed there constituted
a solemn warning and a call upon the

protecting public property IN Alaska
/ In view Of the need for a firm and
careful policy this emphasized, it was
the Presidents duty to hold up the
terminal lands around Controller Bay

the coal lands, the title to the harbol
lands, which are the key to the Goa
lands, should have been held, in any
event, until Congress could act.
1T is possible that the protests al

SOME CHANGES
in TRI-STATE
Present Conditions Predict
Different Circuit for
Next Year
GRAHAM MAY BE
THE NEXT PRESIDENT

Changes in the Tri-State League
circuit for 1912 are already being talk
ed of, and with the present poor finan-
cial standing Of several of the clubs
it looks as if some startling move
ments may be expected before the
next campaign for the Farnsworth
cup.
At the present time Altoona and
Lancaster are showing weakness and
the Red Roses have transferred games
to Trenton, which were scheduled for
Lancaster on Friday and Saturday.
The attendance has been poor and
doubts are expressed as TO the stand
ing of the club for next season. At
Altoona public subscriptions are being
raised to continue the season out, and
the Mountain City's future is uncer-
tain. There is also a possibility that
this may be the last season for Johns
town. Wilmington is picked to stick.
One scheme now being considered
is to have clubs I'm Newburg, ~ Y.
and Paterson, n. j., next season, to
take the place Of Altoona and Lancas-
ter. but II the former drops out the
league will find It impossible to carry
JohnstoWn on account of the extreme
railroad jump which would be neces-
sary for the two games a trip each
club would have to play there. In
place of Johnstown. Elizabeth, n. ].
is being considered. It is the plan
to have Sunday games at Paterson
Elizabeth and Newburg, if possible,
and allow the home clubs TO be al
homo each Saturday and Sunday.
Under the scheme to take in Eliza.
beth and Paterson it is planned to have
Wilmington, Trenton, Elizabeth and
Paterson form the eastern circuit, with
only about fifty miles between eacl
city and to have Harrisburg. Reading
: Lancaster and York form the western
] end, with Allentown to take Lancas
ters place if the Red Rose city should
drop. With this circuit the travel
ing expenses would be greatly reduced
and it is thought the injection OF new
clubs would bring about a better pa
tronage throughout the circuit.
There is also a rumor that this viii
be the last season of the reign o
Charles F. Carpenter as president o
the organization. Several things tina
have broken loose lately indicate tha

With the placing of George Brown,

colony has not been re-established as
claimed by "a member of the colony,
for il has become known today that
the civil courts of the State may be
asked TO force Montgomery Beane, a
resident there. to sell or dispose 7f
his two lots which he holds. Accord
ing to the information secured from
the village over whose gateway the
quotation from Shakespeare, You
Are Welcome Hither" cut, it appears
that Mr.. Beane secured three lots for
lease of ninety-nine years and on
one of them he had built a house.
The other two he used for growing
hay and other commodities, but last
March he paid but one-half the rental
on the lots and the trustees, who are
Frank Stephens, William Price and
iC. r. ShandreW, it IS said, are de-
sirous of letting Edward Ross, of
Philadelphia. have one of them. This
Mr.. Beane will do, provided IL is
said Ross will give to him the con-
tract for building a house on one lot
7 II is understood that Mr.. Beane had
f been offered 500 for the surrender
of the lease, but has refused to ac-
cept it.
The trustees contend that he is
\ holding the land for speculation, but
Mr.. Beane has shown this report e
be unfounded as he tried to grow ,
crop Of hay there this summer. Jusi
what action will be taken is no
known. but Brown, who is serving
five days at the Workhouse for dis
orderly conduct at the club house
will be released on Saturday morning
and will return to the colony.
