SUFFRAGISTS
CONTINUE FIGHT

Local sufiragists are looking to
Senator Salisbury TO assist them in
the fight for the ballot and with this
end in view. the work undertaken by
the Suffragists here will be continued.
The various Organizations viii wage
the fight for the ballot before the
next session of the State Legislature,
and petitions now being circulated for
endorsement will be followed up.
In speaking OF the defeat Of the
amendment by the United states SEN
ate on Thursday, Mrs. Florence Bay
ard Hilles, chairman Of the Delaware
Congressional Union Of this city, to-
day said: "Inasmuch as the vote that
defeated the amendment was so close,
It shows that the suffrage cause has
gained and in consequence II gives US
hope that by continued efforts In this
state, we shall have gained the VIC
tory even sooner than some OF us had
dared to hope for.

depend on the support of Mr.. Sauls-
bury. which support he could not give

that the defendant. because of hi.
conduct, did delay the passing OF tn,
passing of the cars on the railway
company. and in doing so uses the
exact language of the statute above
quoted.
Il am therefore of the opinion that
the offense charged constitutes dis
orderly conduct within the meanine
OF the definition above given, as Il
charges an offense made unlawful by
the statute of this State; but it must
be shown, in order to convict, that
the defendant did wilfully delay the
passing of the cars on the railyay
tracks, as alleged, to bring the case
within the statute.
THE motion to quash the informa
tion is refused"
Mr.. Salisbury then entered a plea o
not guilty for Elliott and the first wit.
ness called was Ernest Timmons, VIII,
testified he was employed by the Peo
pies Railway Company on March a.
n conductor on one of the Eastlake cars
The car stopped at Sixth and Popla
streets and Elliott boarded il. Elliot
told him the boys were all going to tht
barn" Again at midnight at Seconc
and King streets Elliott walked up &c
the curb and asked Timmons not 10 take
the car out OF the barn next morning

ished by a fine not exceeding
Fifty Dollars, to be by it re-
covered in any Court having COM
petent jurisdiction in an action
of debt; and further shall be

1T is clear that the Legislature Of
the State, IN this statute, has declared
IL to be unlawful for anyone wilfully
or maliciously to either obstruct a
railway company In the legal use of
its tracks, OF to delay the passing Of
cars on the tracks, or 10 aid or abet
any detention or delay of railway
cars. And the Legislature has pro-
vided in the same statute, that any
one who does do so, shall be punish
ed by a fine not exceeding Fifty Dol
lars, and shall be liable for all dam
ages sustained by reason of the do
ing of any af the prohibited acts.
1T is therefore clear that If any
person Is charged with oh tue ng
any railway company in the legal use
of its tracks. or who delays the pass
ing of cars on the tracks. or who
aids OF abets in the detention or any
delay OF cars, he is doing an act for

SPRING BRINGS
OUT PARADERS
First Day Of New Season
Sees Women In New
Styles
EXPECT SUNDAY
TO BE BALMY

Women had the chance to spend the
arst afternoon Of spring promenading
through the shopping districts Of the
.ity and wearing the howers of the sea-
son. sweetpeas, violots and dollhouse
roses.
The outlook for such an event is based
on the forecast for today, which calls for
lair weather and rising temperature. BY
the afternoon IT should become warmer
and tceorrow win probably see a bright,
mnshiny day that may lure many into
the streets and parks again-that Is, OF
course, II some uniorsecn storm does
not break mp the prophecies.
Spring entered into her own az nine
minutes after o'clock this morning,
From the appearance of things yester-
iay morning it looked as ii the advent
of the new season would be under
wintrv auspices. The snow was coming
down steadily then and the thermometer
was none too kind At Q o'clock the
minimum temperature of the day, % de-
rrees, was registered. Then the mer-
curry started TO climb again until the
maximum. - degrees was reached late
IN the afternoon.
According to the weather man yes
torday's snow will be the last snow
bf the present year. During the en-
tire year Wilmington has had but l6
inches Of snowfall. which Is cons d.
erably less than other cities. Of this
amount III IL inches fell during last
month.
Last year Wilmineton had but two
and lour-tenths inches Of snow, While
in 1912 "a inches fell. The previous
year there was only 22 inches but In
1910 80 inches Of snow fell over The
city. In 1892 there was a real winter,
"a inches of snow falling during the
