HARDESTY AND HILTON
HELD IN $4,000 BAIL
Charged With Attempting to
Break Into Sacred Heart
Church a Few Nights Ago.

Harry Hardesty and Fater Hilton,
the two young men who were caught
by the police when apparently i'm the
act Of breaking into Sacred Heart
Church, at Tenth and Madison streets
on Thursday night and who are re-
ported TO have confessed to entering
several dental establishments in this
city, were held under $5 900 bail each
for the Court of General Sessions by
Judge Hastings in Municipal Court
today. Two charges of breaking and
entering and two Of attempting to
break and enter were placed against
the men.
Testimony was heard on the charge
of carrying concealed deadly weapons.
hut these charges were dismissed. De
tective Sutton testified that he and
three other detectives took the men
into custody as they were crouching
in a stairway at the church Two
loaded revolyers were found on the
step where they had been standing.
The men admitted, he said, having
brought the guns from Baltimore in
a suitcase and after they arrived in
this city put them in their coat
pockets. Judge Hastings decided that
although they admitted carrying the
revolvers in their pockets, it did not
necessarily follow that the guns were
concealed.

TO DECIDE EAST AND
WEST ROAD PROBLEM
At DOVER ON FRIDAY |:
Question Rests Solely on Re-
suit of Audit and Cost of
This Years Contracts.
UPHAM MAY BE RETAINED

Dover, June AT n meeting of the
State Highway Commission at Dover
'on June 10, it will be definitely an
nounced whether there will be any
money left over. after the north and
south boulevard throughout the State
is completed. for the building of east
and west roads. Forecasts by the
auditors who are going over accounts
and have already gotten a general
idea of the cost of the new roads TO
be built this year are, that there viii
be no money for anything but the COIN
pletion OF the north and south high
way
When this audit il completed, it
is the intention Of the Highway Com
mission 10 prepare a resume of the
figures and give them TO the public.
50 that il may know at first hand
where the money is being spent. how
ard why there is not money for east
and west roads.
II there should BE- enough surplus TO
build a few miles of east and west
roads. then the commission would
have the very undesirable question 10
decide. as 20 which county should be
ava rded sums for road building.
There are uncompleted roads in
Kent and New Castle counties-State
aid roads--that the Highway Com
mission is obligated 10 finish IL there
is the money. At the meeting of the
commission this week, many delega-
tions appeared to the commissioners
to build some short stretches Of roads.
but until the official audit of the books
is completed and the contracts ex-
amined, il will not be definitely known
how the Commission stands financially.
The matter of Charles NJ. Upham,
state engineer having an offer from
southern state to become state high
way engineer, has not been brought
officially before the members of the
commission. While the construction
work on Delaware's highway viii pos
sibly be completed this year. it will
still be necessary to have high grade
man TO look after the roads and see
that they are kept in good shape.
With the completion of present con-
tracts, the state win have roads worth
$40 ,000, 900 TO keep up, and this is be-
lieved to be a job big enough for a
man of Engineer Uphani's capabilities.

has failed, so far, at least, TO either
straighten out the matter or inform
the public as To just why the city has
50 far failed TO obtain the money.

the support Of all of his Democrats

members of the present body have
been trying to accomplish something
along this line. but so far without sue

such movement. and they are ex-

The situation is paradoxical. The
city appears 70 have lost all of this
