The Wilmington sugar refinery is
an Industrial operation even greater
than that OF building OF the new

Christiana river. II Is within $500
feet OF tho city's new terminal and
il heing constructed at n cost Of ap-
proximatc,y $4,000. 900. according TO
those interested.
Although tho initial work on the
operation WAS started nearly two years
ago. delay OF seven months was ex-
perienced, due. IL is said 10 unsettled
labor conditions. As result, excava-
tion and preliminary work was held
UP until last September. For several
months thereafter the lc-acre plot at
the street siding OF the Pennsyl-
vania railroad was a scene OF activity
Later, however. because Of unfor-
seen happenings * was stated by Of
ncials. the work was again halted
During the period OF operation ma jor
portion OF the concrete and iron struc-
iural work was completed. Today one
OF the large skeleton buildings is seen
looming from the shores Of the Christi
ana river. II was rumored early In the
summer that this building. as well as
all other iron structural work, had
been offered for sale. This. however.
was denied by officials Of the COM
psny.
The refinery. when completed. will
have a wharf frontage of approximate
ly 500 feet along the Christiana river.
Practically all the dredging and pile
driving has been completed The
wharf. II was explained. will be of
sufficient length to accommodate two
ocean-going steamships.
Like the new Marine Terminal.
transportation facilities available will
include the Delaware river and bay.
the Chesapeake q Delaware canal, and
the rail- lines entering the city. Prac-
tcally every railroad line connecting
with the Marine Terminal will like
wisc be connected with the railroad
leading through and into the plant of
the sugar refinery. At present the
New Castle cutoff OF the Pennsylva-
MIA railroad, which passes directly
through the l2-acre plot. is being used
20 handle the shipment OF freight con-
signed 10 the Marine Terminal.
Il was further emphasized by Arm
strong 4 I.a;ta officials. that that COM
rany stil; retains the contract for the
work on the refinery.
