TAXI RATES REMAIN.
Council Postpones action an increase fer
Another Week.

The request of tsxicab drivers for a
zone of increased fares met with opposition
in City Council last night. largely because
of the exerbitapt fares charged by some
drivers during recent severe transforms.
The clsim that the men who panhandle d
the public" were not licensed taxi drivers
led to the suggestion that some effective
way of desinating licensed drivers be
included in any change which may be
made in the ordinance.
Councilman Mearns moved that the re-
quest be not granted, but after . plea
for fuller consideration from Councilman
Mulvena, he withdrew his motion.
Councilman Mulvena then moved that
the request be laid over for another week
snd the clerk instructed to secure infor-
nation about taxicab rates in other
cities of the size of Wilmington. City Soici-
tor Huxley suggested that if any change
in the ordinance is to be made, some
provision for posting the fare when the
passenger can see it should be included.

OBJECT TO SIGNS.
Residents Of Sixteenth Street and Della.
ware Avenue Complain.

Removal OF billboards on Delaware
avenue opposite the Traction Co. car
barns WAS requested of City Council last
night by a committee of residents Of the
neighborhood, whose porches on Sixteenth
street face the unpainted backs of the
signs. They declared that in addition to
the disa greeable obstruction to the view
from their horches, the signs constituted
an inducement to commit nulsanses and
that the lot was In a disgracefully unsani-
tary condition.
President Lyon of the Council agreed
that there are now too many signs for
the good of the city" and thought the lot
opposite the car barns WAS blot upon
one OF Wilmington's most attractive
thoroughfares. Robert Hunter, repre-
senting the advertisers who put up the
signs, expressed willingness to raise the
signs, put up painted fence on the Six
teenth street side, or do anything else
within reason" to remove the objections
of the neighbors.
In the discussion after the hearing City
Solicitor John w. Huxley, Jr., pointed
out that the city could not order the signs
removed, as the United States Supreme
court has decided that property owners
may get revenue from their land in any
way they see fit, so long as the signs arc
not indecent or dangerous to passers-by
1t was decided to urge Mr.. Hunter to
make whatever improvements the resi-
dents Of the neighborhood preferred.

is scheduled an appeal from the register Of
wills, being the case OF Joseph r. Smith,
executor, under the last will and testament
Of Mary A. Gordon, deceased, and Violet
Crew and Mabel X Mitchell, devisees, VS..
Daniel Cornelius Crew, Robert Crew,
Benjamin Grew, Howell Caldwell Crew,
James Shepherd, Carey Shepherd Jr.,
and Warren Grow. This case attracted
much attention when being heard by the
register OF wills, when it was alleged that
undue influence had been exercised.
There also appear on the argument list
the following divorce cases: Bertha
Young Cove from Thomas Scott Cove,
annulment of marriage; Samuel L. A.
Morgan from Caroline Morgan; Alex
ander Watson from Alice d. Watson /;
Estelle Schrciner from Edwin A. Schrcincr;
Lizzie Ennis from John II. Ennis; Angeles
X. Cope from Lauren c. Cope; Louisa b.
Anderson from James NJ. Anderson,
annulment Of marriage; Robert B. Filings
worth from Bessie NJ. Ellingsworth
In two of the above cases special in
terest attaches, one being the case of
Estellc Schreiner from Edwin A. Schreiner
This is the case which Was heard by the
court two terms ago, the court at that
time refusing 10 grant the divorce, and the
case was continued. Estelle Sehreiner is
also known as Estelle LsBellc, mother Of
the 5-year-old Edwin Belle,

now confined in the Kent county Jail,
awaiting trial
At the hearing Of La Croix, Schrciner
appeared with his wife and returned with
her to Smyrna, where he remained a few
DAYS before going back to his work at
Atlantic City, N J. Just what disposition
will be made of the divorce case is looked
forward to with considerable interest.
The second case of interest is the apnul-
mcnt of the marriage of Louisa Baker
Anderson from James NJ. Anderson, being
the case in which Anderson, balloonist,
while in Dover at a carnival, in July, 1919,
became acquainted with the Baker girl,
and week later married her and with
whom he lived for quite while before it
was known that he already had wife
living in the South. Anderson was
arrested and brought here, and on pleading
guilty to the offence Of bigamy was
sentenced TO two years in the New Castle
County Workhouse, where he is now con-
fined

All lovers of base ball will have
an opportunity of seeing the famous
Boston Braves and the Columbus

Dawson Wednesday, March 18th.
Baldwin Park will be the scene
of the conflict, and the Boston
Braves, all bedecked and smeared
with war paint, will go after the
scalps of the Columbus aggregation.
But the latter have some ball club,
and stoutly declare that when they
finish with the naughty Boston
Braves they will look like a rooster
with his tail feathers pulled out,
Anyway, all that remains to be seen,
and the local fans as well as the
out-of-town fans can not afford to
miss this game. A great crowd from
the surrounding section is expected
to come to Dawson that day to see
the game.
