According to Port Deposit correspon-
dent, suit will be entered at Elkton In a
few days against the Baltimore Ohio
Railroad and the American Bridge Co., Of
New York, for damages aggregating $40,-
600, resulting from the food which swept
Port Deposit and Lapidum on January
%. 1910.
The plaintiffs who are residents OF the
two towns, allege that the Ice gorge on
that date was caused by the temporary
construction work used in the erection Of
the new bridge over the Susquehanna
river, north OF Havre de Grace and not
removed at the completion Of the work.
The contention is that there was not
sufficient ice to have caused damage had
there been any freedom at the mouth Of
the river. AS 1t was, the piling left in
the river held the ice until an accumula-
tion of water sufficient to force the ice
in on the town tore all the oDstructions
from the channel.
The liability Of the railroad company,
it is held, comes from the fact that per-
mission was given by the United States
engineers to erect the bridge conditional
upon the payment of any loss incurred
to the Susquehanna Valley residents by
gorges caused by the bridge being there.

Walter Burris In Bankruptcy

Walter Burris, of Bear, Del.,. widely
known in New Castle and Cecil county
as a dealer in live stock and fertilizers,
filed voluntary petition in bankruptcy
in the U. S. Court, at Wilmington, on
Monday last.
His wife joins him in the action, filing
petition on her own account. The pc
titions were referred to Leonard E.
Wales, referee in bankruptcy. The
Sheriff's liabilities are placed at s., ,243. 40
and assets at $3,4Oi.S9. His wife has
liabilities of $2,679.12 and assets of $475.
Mr.. Burris was until recently postmas-
ter at Bear Station, fourth class post
office. He resigned when elected Sheriff,
with a salary of $4,000 year 1t is be-
lieved the sheriff's activity in politics
for some years had something to do with
his financial embarrassment.
Mr.. Burris was inducted into office a
sSheriff of New Castle county on Tuesday
of this week. He is Republican.

STATES GROWING DEBT

In subnaitting his annual report to
Governor Goldsborough, State Comptrol-
Ter Emerson G. Harrington calls atten-
tion to the large increase in State ex-
penditure and suggests that the most
rigid economy be practiced In every
department of the State government. The
States expenditures last year were $443.-
$50 in excess of the previous year OF
this amount $1S2 400 went for Legislative
expenses, showing outside of the legisla-
tive account. large increase in State
expenses.
OF the remainder OF the increase, part
is due to the large payments made on ac-
count of the various loans and the con-
stantl yincreasing cost of the State gov
ernment. While the report makes no
mention of the fact, 1t Is nevertheless
true that each succeeding Legislature has
increased expenses here and there, in
raising salaries, increasing the number
of employees or increasing the appro-
priations that are made every two years.
In his report Comptroller Harrington
goes on to express his opinion that the
rapidly mounting tax rate demands that
no additional burdens, in the way of ap-
propriations, be made in the near future.
Here are his exact words:
when we consider that only a few
years ago the State tax rate was only 16
cents on each $100 and that 1t was ne
cessary to increase the same to 81 cents
to take care of the above loans, provide
an adequate revenue for the public
schools and the maintenance of state
roads, prudence, in my Judgment, de-
mands that no additional burdens be
made in the near future, and the most
rigid economy be practiced in every
branch of the State government"
According to the report, the total debt
of the State aggregates $13,O2s,O95.63, or
an increase of $2,599, 1880. After de-
Quoting, however, the bonds and cash
held in the sinking funds, $5,701, ,S36. IS,
and the mortgage of the Northern Cen
trail Railway Company of $150u,000, the
net debt is shown to be s5,S26, ,25S.SS.
There was invested during the year S55G,-
10 in the bonds of the State of Mary
land while S54, ,7O7.S3 of cash was carried
oyer into the next fiscal year, which has
sissss been invested in like securities.

Court Imposes Fines

AS told in last weeks WHIG, in the
case of Eugene Feucht VS.. the Commits
sioners of Cecil County, et al, the Court
found the defendants guilty of contempt
of Court, for having ignored the injunc-
tion issued against them last summer,
but had not imposed the fines at the
time of our going to press. Later the
Court imposed fines of s25 on the Allen
Construction Co., $40 each on the County
Commissioners, and IS each on the men,
bers of the Auxiliary Road Commission.
The defendants were also ordered to pay
the costs of the proceedings.

Warming Up In Delaware

The Delaware Legislature met and or
ganized at Dover on Tuesday last. Wise
acres see, in the organization as well as
elsewhere, evidences of the election of
Willard Salisbury, Democratic National
Committeeman from Delaware TO the U.
S. Senate, to fill the seat now occupied
by Senator Harry A. Richardson The
fight on Salisbury has not, however,
been abandoned. In fact it grows hotter
as the hour of election draws nearer. Old
animosities have been raked up, party
feuds that were thought dead and forgot
ten, have been brought to life; and
Saulsbury's enemies profess to have him
beaten. They do not, however, seem
able to agree on the man to beat him
with, simply declaring with great bit
terness that Salisbury shall not have
the place-that they will, in fact, sooner
see it go to a Republican.
Saulsburys friends claim that much of
this bitterness is being fathered by the
DUPONT machine. They say that if there
is any man in the State whom DUPONT
fears and would hate to see elected to
the Senate, that man is SALISBURY. They
declare that II Salisbury is elected, it
will not be long before charges OF brib-
cry will be brought against dupont. 1t is
also alleged that the Pennsylvania R. R.
is arranged against Salisbury. who has
fouslt it often and hard in the courts.
In spite of these elments against him,
it is conceded that If the Democrats go
into caucus, Salisbury will win out. The
only hope of beating him is to keep
some of the Democratic Legislators from
going into the caucus.
While Salisbury, on the surface, kept
out of the fight, Tuesday, for the organi-
cation of the Legislature, it is regarded
as significant that Charles p. Folcomb,
of New Castle county, strong Sauls-
bury supporter and lieutenant, was elect
ed Speaker of the House, his opponent
being Edward G. Bradford, Jr., (Rep),
son of Federal Judge Bradford, of Will
mington. Mr.. Bradford did the courteous
thing in moving, after the vote, to make
Mr.. Ho,comb's election unanimous.
The Legislature heard the final mes
sage of Governor Pennewill. The mes
sage congratulates the State on its pros
porous condition, on it's remarkable ag-
ricultural development, on its improv-
ed methods of farming, advocates build

Heavy Storm On Coast

This county, as well as the entire At
,antic Seaboard, was swept by one of the
worst storms in it's history on Friday of
last week The stories of damage done
,o shipping and to tide water cities and
towns form a pathetic chapter in the his
tory of storm-ravages. Fortunately our
local suffering was comparatively slight.
The high wind, amounting to a hurricane,
did some damage to trees and buildings.
The tide, coming up from the Bay into
the rivers, was the highest seen here in
years and for time looked threatening
at certain points Aside from blocking
travel in places, it subsided however
with no serious harm done.

State Auditor At Last

]. Enos Ray, of Prince Georges county,
former Speaker Of the House of Dele
gates, was elected State Auditor yester-
day by the Board of Public Works through
the votes of Comptroller Harrington and
Treasurer Vand.yer. Governor Goldsbor-
ough, the third member of the Board,
voted for Wilmer Black, an expert ac-
countant.
Because of deadlock between General
Vandiver and Mr. Harrington, Deputy
Auditor was not chosen, but II was agreed
by the two Democratic members of the
board to fill this Office at a meeting of
the board at Annapolis Monday.
After the meeting Mr.. Harrington an
nounced that he was prepared to vote for
Raymond c. Reik, 2501 Guilford avenue,
who is assistant chief clerk in his office,
for Deputy Auditor General Vandiver,
however, favors Thomas Murray, of Cecil
county, but Mr.. Harrington VIII not vote
for him because he Is not an expert ac-
countant. Mr.. Harrington would have
mentioned Mr.. Reik, but said he had con-
suited Mr.. Reik, who informed him that
he was not prepared to say he would ac-
cept the office If elected. General Van
diver then suggested that the election of
the Deputy Auditor be postponed until
Monday.
While agreeing to Mr.. Ray for Audi
tor, Mr.. Harrington made it plain that
he will insist upon the election of
an expert accountant for the second
place. He has informed General VAN
diver that he has no personal candidate
for the Office and is inclined to Mr.. Reik
simply because he knows his qualifira
tions and ability.
Unless General Vandiver nominates an
accountant for the deputyship Monday,
the indications are that Mr.. Harrington
will nominate Mr.. Reik or some other ex-
pert and then allow the board to fight it
out Governor Goldsborough is also in
iavor of an expert.

Poist Exonerated

AS stated some weeks ago in this
paper, Frank II. Nickle, of Perryville,
brought charge of embezzement of 800
against his nephew, George w. Poist,
who had been associated with him in the
business of cattle buying, Nickle claim
ing that Post could give no account of
the 800 which had been used in buying
cattle last summer. A hearing was held
before Squire Cameron, in Elkton, on
January g. at which decision was given
for Po!st, the Magistrate finding no evil
dence of embezzlement or of existence
of debt.

PUBLIC LANDS SALES
HEAVY, SAYS TUCKER

In his annual report to the governor,
madepublic this afternoon. Land Com.
missioner Tucker give some interest
ing figures on territorial land sales
aid purchases since the land law of
1269 went into effect. Under that act
sales have totalled $24,424, and pur-
chases $13,50S, with $13.412.7O of this
amount being spent in Honolulu. All
OF these sales were on the island of

all Of these purchases being at Hilo
leaving a balance on hand for further
