the question of labor, II was then ex-
planned by Councilman McManus T. at
the city solicitor was studying four
volumns OF law.
Where" asked Mr.. Long. Down
in Kentucky"
At this juncture Councilman Nc
Nabb exclaimed that: LAS a lawyer
I think City Solicitor satterwaite is
az good as any other lawyer in this
city; he Is good and conscientious and
am sure he is doing his best"
DO we have to test every law as
long as the governor signs it?' was the
bareback of Mr.. Long.
The question was then raised con-
corning President Ward being employ
ed by the du Pont Engineering Co.
Il am not on the payroll Of the du
Pont Engineering Company" was the
reply of Mr.. Ward Although I come
in daily contact with the operation OF
thai department. I am employed by
f. I. deNenlours & Co"
Mr.. McNabb asked whether Coun-
Gilman Vincent was employed by the
du Pont Co. Mr.. Vincent said that he
was not.
Mr. 44VAE GA1AAtlNh AAi%A1 @IAAA@-4AA~AA
McManus had never been partial 10
the Central Labor Union and that he
had slighted the committee when they.
first appeared before Council. Mr., Nc
Manus claimed at that time he had an
important engag agement with the fl
nance committee and later had to go
to a meeting Of the Department of
Public Safety.
Il am tired of hearing your piffle'
over minor details,' said Mr.. O'Kane.
This latter retort brought on some
spicy repartee.
Councilman McNabb made a state
ment that when the opinion OF city
Solicitor Satterthwaite was received
Council might and might not act IN
accordance with the opinion handed
down. He personally probably would
not agree with it, provided the opinion
declares the law unconstitutional.
Mr.. Walsh pointed to the action OF
the du Pont Engineering Co. in hay
| ing inserted in the harbor contract the
clause Of the law dealing with eight
hours as constituting day on city
work. He argued that it was the re-
sponslbility OF Council to see that the
city departments did not violate this
section.
John Hickey claimed that painters
were being paid 80 cents an hour anc
that the rate of go cents showed by
the table submitted by the contractors
was not the prevailing rate. This
statement was challenged by severa
members of Council.
The delay in forwarding the opinion
on the law was the result Of consider.
able criticism. Mr.. Walsh assailed tht
stand OF the city solicitor as "dilly.
dallying." and argued that any deci.
sion given by him would not affec-
the validity of the law.

Local Aquatic Athletes viii
Contest Strong Team
Friday Night.

The Y. NJ. c. A. swimming team
has been working hard during the past
month TO get into shape for the fall
and swimming season and particu-
larly for the meet with Philadelphia
Central tomorrow night in the local
pool.
This VIII be the second meeting Of

months and Coach Sparks proteges

pink of condition for this meet be-
cause * was at the hands of the Phil
adelphians that they were defeated
by the decisive score of 32 to IS.
Since the defeat of the local "mer-
men" by Philadelphia,s aquatic stars
the Wilmington boys have been COM
ing TO the front in the swimming
world by leaps and bounds and have
defeated all competitors both at home
and abroad by large scores. Such
worthy opponents as the Chester,
Baltimore and Washington teams,

still hanging in the balance. have
fallen before the opposition OF the Will
mington boys.
A win over Philadelphia tomorrow
night should give Captain Bardo's
team a claim to the championship of
the Atlantic seaboard.
The people of Wilmington are as
sured Of an unusual treat on Friday
night if Parker, of the Philadelphia
team makes his appearance. Parker
ranks high in acquatic sports, being
diver of unusual ability and swims
the so and 100 yards close to record
time. He alone scored almost as
many points as the entire Wilmington
team in the meet at Philadelphia.
A great deal depends upon the sup
port of the local fans tomorrow night
as TO whether or not the local swim
ming team will get TO take the pro
posed trip TO New York City and some
of the New England States.
! Two-fifths of second was clipped
off the National forty-yard swim re
cord by Ed. Bardo, well-known VIII

The above figures We're part of. the

rates OF wages paid certain skilled and
common labor. j. p. Long speaking
for the labor delegation, questioned
the authenticity of the figures because
the table did not disclose the names
of the firms involved.
How are we to know that table
is correct?" asked Mr.. Long. President
Ward stated that the conference could
not possibly hope to get anywhere un-
less both sides We're willing TO pro-
ceed in good faith. He stated he had
no reason to doubt the work of Mr..
Pierce and that his standing In the
community was evidence OF his vera
city.
Referring to the 2,100 men supposed
to be employed on outside jobs in this
city, Charles Ralston, another labor
delegates, stated that he was unable to
see where these men were being en-
ployed inasmuch as he was familiar
with practically every operation in the

Prior to reading the communication
Councilman James b. McManus, chair
man of the finance committee of
Council. asked that the meeting be
held behind closed doors or that the
newspaper representatives BE request
cd not to publish any OF the facts
forthcoming. He said he raised this
question because he understood that
scrhe matter TO be presented might be
"detriment to labor" The
labor representatives took exception to
the statement and argued Cor an open
meeting. Councilman McNabb further
objected 10 the closed meeting, stating
that he was a member OF both Council
and a trade union. II was decided to
have the meeting open.
The scale of wages paid on the two
projects was next brought up. The
table showed that the du Pont Engi-
