ing that Franks had a wife living in
Detroit. Mich, from whom he had
not been divorced when the marriage
to Miss Barber was performed At

FIND BOY HURT
in CITY STREET
George BrattOn Too Dazed
Today to Tell How He
Received Injuries
AUTO MAY HAVE
RUN DOWN THE LAD

George Bratton, aged IA years, Of
No. oil Linden street, has been in the
Delaware Hospital since yesterday af-
ternoon badly hurt and too dazed to
tell how he received his injuries. He
was found along the tracks Of the Will
mington and Philadelphia Traction
Company, at Thirty-eighth and Mar
ket streets. His right wrist was
broken, his head badly cut and nu-
merous bruises on his body He was
still too dazed at noon today to tell
just how he was hurt.
Much mystery surrounds the af-
fair. Whether the boy fell from a
trolley car or was hit by a team OF
automobile and tossed on the tracks,
nobody seems TO know. No report OF
an accident of any kind on the trolley
line was reported yesterday II is
thought, how ever, that George was
struck either by an automobile or a
team. He was seen lying along the
tracks by the crew OF a car and re-
moved to tho hospital.

FARMERS WANT
TO SAVE TROLLEY
Say They Will be InCOn-
VenienCed if Delaware
City Line is Abandoned

Farmers in lower New Castle hum
dred and in Red Lion hundred are
considerably alarmed over the possi-
bility Of the abandonment Of the Del
aver City line. Under an agreement
with the receivers OF the line, the
Southern Traction Company is now
operating the road. Farmers along
the line are interested because a
freight car that operates between
Wilmington and Delaware City carries
their milk, and if the road is aband-
oned they will have to either haul
their milk to New Castle or ship It
by railroad out of Delaware City.
The road was sold several weeks
ago to a committee representing the
bonholders. for $4,000. These bond
holders hold bonds valued at Sl20,-
600. Since the sale two more bonds
of $1,000 each have been turned into
the Court Of Chancery, but no one
knows who holds the other three
bonds. General Manager J. r. Wall
lace, of the Wilmington and Southern
Traction Company. which owns the
New Castle line, said the other day he
is not anxious TO operate the Della
ware City end of the line longer be-
cause it is a losing proposition. There
is possibility, however, that the
present agreement between the conf
pany under which the the lower end
of the road is operated, may be con-
tinued, the New Castle company re-
ceiving all the fares collected on the
division. The bondholders are anx-
ious to sell the line, but it has no
power house, no rolling stock and
ends in New Castle.
