Washington, March 20.--The senior
Senator from Delaware. Hon. l.. Heie-
Ter Rail. indicated today that ne feN
aggrieved at a recent publication In
Every Evening from It's Washington
correspondent, In which an effort was
made on the part Of the writer TO tell
something OF the harmony agreement
between the senior Senator and Sena- 81
tor Coleman du Pont. and what seem 10
be contributing factors 10 the result
You have done me a great Unjust
tce." Senator Ball said. "in your cor
respondence TO Every Evening. in
which YOU discuss the relationship be-
tween Senator du Pont and myself and
the result OF our understanding with
each other.
The part that particularly object
90. is where you say that Senator du
ront brought about the appointment
81 John W. Herring as internal revenue
collector OF Delaware. and that he In
consequence OF this. Ia and will be
Senator du Points friend and support
cr. and not mine.
The truth is. am responsible FOR
the appointment Of Mr. Herring, and he
81 my warm personal friend l could
have had only one appointed 20 the
place. but l chose to give the appoint
mont to MIR. Herring. Tho chief deputy
Mr.. Brown, is my friend. and that
fact ts one OF the reasons he got the
sob"
senator Ball indicated that the ap-
rointments under Mr.. Herring would
show conclusively whether Mr.. Herine
IS his loyal friend and supporter or
that of Senator du Pont. He said this
was a sure test OF the relationship be
tween himself and Mr.. Herring and
that he was willing for the question
20 be settled on that basis.
Senator Ball said he had no quarre,
with senator du Pont in this matter
and that II in no way would interfere
with their friendly relations. He said
he could not blame Every Evening for
iis effort to drive a wedge between
Senator du Pont and himself. as the
paper was Democrtic and Il stood the
PAPER In hand TO do this; but he said
he objected TO criticism that would
place him in a false light before the
eople of Delaware.

day they were called into service Mt
four different fires. the most serious
OF which occurred at tho homo OF G.

hard job combining the flames TO the
room in which they started but they
SUCCEEDED in doing this and thereby
saving the house from serious damare
or total destruction.
The contents OF the room were prac
ucally destroyed. The loss 20 the
furniture and the house was esti-
mated at 5000 covered by insurance.
About : O'Clock yesterday morning

ried from their quarters Just around
the corner IN Tatnan street and when
the iremen get into the building they
found the smoke was due TO some
ashes on the basement floor and that
there was no fire In the hall other than
that in the furnace.
Last night about T.so o'clock A
portiere IN a second story back room
