There Will be None On Munici pal Ownership of the Sew erage System-. ALDERMEN MET YESTERDAY. Several Important Matters Discussed, la. clading Paving of Princess Street, . Receiving of James Walker Memorial Hospital, Etc. There will be no election, for the prevent, at least upon the issuance of $100,000 bonds for the construction andfnunicipal ownership of a system of sewerage. " That was the outcome of another hour's Aldermamc wrestle with the question at a special meeting of the City Council yesterday afternoon at which Mayor Wadfell and all mem bers were present except Aldermen West and Spencer. The meeting was called primarily to take some action relative to the formal receiving of the James Walker Memorial Hospital but before it was ended there were spirited discussions on a number of very im portant municipal subjects, principal among which was sewerage. Alderman Harris forestalled several other resolutions that were in the hands of members j awaiting to be launched upon the session and in a lull of an excited- discussion under head of "Streets and Wharves" and before several other members could get missives from their coat pockets and other places, he read the following which started the "ball to rolling" and which was finally adopted with a slight amendment by Alderman Bail ey, which is incorporated 'therein and printed in italics: Whereas, Since the July meeting of this Board it has been made to ap -pear that the amount authorized to be voted for, to wit: $100,000 for con structing a system of sewerage for the city is vastly Inadequate to construct, a complete system of sewerage, and the financial condition of the city is such that to impose an additional tax upon its citizens, would greatly in, crease their burden, especially since the issue by the county of $50,000 for road improvement, which is practi cally the debt of the city. And it fur ther appearing that the act under which the proposed bond issue is to be submitted to the people dees not pro vide adequate machinery for construct ing a system of sewerage, and if the bonds should be voted, would require additional legislation, which cannot be secured before the year 1903. And Whereas, His honor, the Mayor, has stated to the Board that he has been reliably informed that the Wil mington Sewerage Company is willing to enter into a contract to construct the sewerage system they .are now engaged in putting in the city of Wil mington under the supervision of a competent engineer to be appointed by the city and to sell the said plant after its completion to the city at a price to be agreed upon between the f.itv and said comnanv. and is further willing to agree upon a schedule of rates for sewer services to be charged its citizens satisfactory to the city. Now, be it Re80lved,Th&t the Mayer be and he is hereby empowered and instructed to appoint a committee of three Aldermen to: confer with said company or any -other responsible nnrtii and airre uDon a contract and submit it to the board for its approval. Be it Further Resolved, That the election ordered by the board at us last meeting be postponed lcdenniieiy. The first attack to which the resolu tion was subjected ! was a motion to table-by Alderman ' Johnson. The motion was lost in a vote of 4 to 4, those voting aye having been von Glahn, Johnson Mann and Bailey; ny, Maunder, Harriss. Skinner and Parker. - The next motion was one by Alder man Harriss to adopt the resolution. Alderman Johnson! offered a substi tute providing flatsfootedly for an elec tion upon the bond issue and carrying with it an appropriation of $500 for ex penseof holding such an election. ,Then Alderman Parker amended Mr. Johnson's substitute by moving that the whole proceedings be deferred. Alderman Johnson ' accepted that amendment in lieu'of his substitute, and the amendment was lost in a vote of 6 to 2, Messrs. Parker and Johnson alone1 voting "aye."; Then Alderman Bailey made a hur ried examination of the resolution as offered by. Mr. Harriss and put in nis amendment, which was accepted by Mr. Harriss and a vote called upon th whole. Those voting aye were Messrs. Maunder, Harriss, Bailey, VonGlahn and Skinner; nay, Johnson, Parker and Mann. This put an end to the affair until iust as the meeting was adjourning. Mr. Bailey gave his usual notice of the right at a subsequent meeting to reconsider the approval of the plans of the Wilmington. Sewerage Com pany. . The first step taken at the meeting was the reading of a communication from Messrs. James Sprunt and Wm. Gilcnrist, executors of the "will and testament of the late James Walker, the donor of the handsome new in stitution bearing ;his name and which the communication stated is now ready' to be formally turned over to the county and city. Upon motion , of Alderman Harriss; Mayor Waddell appointed Messrs. VonGUaJra, Harriss and Maunder to confer with the Board of County Commissioners .relative to the transfer. Mayor Waddell in speak ing of the magnificent gift paid a tri bute to the lamented ! Mr. Walker and suggested that upon the formal trans fer it would be fitting that the Board should attend the exercises in'a body. This was retailassented to. . : ' A petition from prominem .mer chants along the wharf relative to the emptying of. sewer pipes above low water mark at .Uhesnut street aoc, referred to the - Street and is Committee. - . Alderman Bailey made an informal report for the Streets and Wharves Committee to the effect that with the excessive rains and the filling up of the shafts of the rock quarry and the failure of the Board of Audit and Finance to concur in an appropriation for an additional pump, it had been found necessary to cease all opera tions at the quarry. He asked what course to pursued - Alderman Harriss spoke on what he termed a "double-headed" govern ment and asked what the Board had a right to do. Clerk Northrop, of the Board of Audit and Finance, who was present, said, upon being in quired of, that his Board had not re fused to concur in the appropriation, but had simply deferred action for further information. While this cross firing was being indulged in, Alderman Mann called attention to ponds of water at Seventh and Wooster, Third and Qneen and Ninth and Orange streets. Coming back to the original quest ran Mayor Wadcflll spoke in a spirted manner of the apparent tardiness in the permanent street improvement and Alderman Bailey explained the handicap under which his committee had labored. The Mayor further sta ted that it is absolutely necessary that something be done to Princess street in pursuance of a resolution adopted months ago, that Princess should be the first street permanently improved. It would cost the city but about $3,500 for the blocks from Second to Fourth as the County and Street Railway Company would bear their proportion ate parts. This he explained was the cost of vitrified brick and the commit tee had a perfect right to go ahead with the work out of its regular ap propriation. Alderman Maunder then made a motion that the paving of these two blocks with vitrified brick be let out under contract to the lowest rea sonable bidder and that the work be done at once. Then a squabble arose as to who should award the bids and the up shot of the whole matter was a defeat of the motion 5 to 3, Messrs. Harriss, Maunder and VonGlahn alone voting aye. Then Alderman Harriss criticised Alderman Johnson rather severely for a committee action in re gard to the pump and this was finally adjusted by an authorization of Alder man Bailey to purchase the pump out of the regular appropriation lor Streets and Wharves, approval of the Board of Audit and Finance under these conditions, being deemed unnecessary. J. B. J. Sandlin wa granted liquor liceese to retail at No. 6 South Second street Petition of Mr. W. H. Yopp for certain change in tax on fish - and game, alam, crab and other dealers of this character, was referred to the Market Committee.. The Board then adjourned. LOCAL DOTS.

Inability to hit the ball as deliv ered by Mr. Bush had much to do with it. "Davy" Crockett played first base for Detroit Saturday. He got two hits, a run and an error on three times up. We surrender reluctantly and temporarily this morning to Mr. King Kelly, late of New York, in search of a short stop. " Good morning, Mr. Bryan ! The way your team Bush-whacked us yes terday has much consolat ion in it for Kelly's Turtles. No, there was no change of bat teries. Allen pitched his usual heady game from start to finish, but our team could not hit behind him. Don't shake, your gory locks and say Allen did it. He allowed only eight hits; our team got ohly five with three errors. Thereby hangs the tale. A North and South Carolina league next season is now being dis cussed by the newspapers. Richmond is talking of putting a team in the American League. Twelve fine large goose eggs, five runs and thirteen hits for both teams in the game will give you an idea of the ball they played. It. was good and the only pity is that we were not "'tuther fellow." . Pitaher McJames. of the Brook lyn National League team, has been given his ten days' notice of release. He lives at Cheraw, S.

Will Dudley, colored, aged about 40 years and employed since about 1885 as porter at the office of the Navassa Guano Company in this city, was shot and instantly killed last night about 9 o'clock near Sixth and Nixon streets by a negro youth named John Wal lace, who came here several weeks ago from 8outh Carolina and who has been employed atlthe Powers & Gibbs' fac tory up the river as a fireman. Wallace-fired the shot from a 88- calibre pistol and immediately made good his ticape. The bullet entered Dudley's breast and lodged in his lung, causing a severe hemorrhage after death. From hett accounts obtainable last night, the difficulty was over a negro woman, named Pboebe Sterling, who livesoa Seventh, between Nixou andf Taj lor streets, and with whom Dud ley was talking, on Sixth and Nixon streets, when Wallace 6red upon him. The negro woman was promptly taken into custody by Chief of Police Furlong, who reached the scene soon after the shooting with a squad of men j and she will be held as a witness, though at present she de clines to say more than that Wallace came upon-Dudley and shot him de liberately without a quarrel" at the time. It is learned, however, that Wallace, just prior to the shooting, tried to induce one of his associates to go down the street with him after Dudley. Coroner Bell also went to the scene of the murder last night and had the body removed to the morgue at the City Hospital. He will hold an in quest over the same this' morning at 10 o'clock. . Dudley is a married man but his wife is North. The Sterling woman also claims that she has a husband at the North. Diligent effort is being made by the police to capture Wallace. I ENDOWMENT RANK, PYTHIANS. An Important Meeting To-morrow Night. Joist Session of All Lodges. . An enjoy able lodge function will be the joint meeting of the Knights of Pythias of the city with Jefferson Lodge, No. 61 to-morrow night at Castle Hall. The committee e-t ar rangements has prepared an interest ing programme, the most important feature of which, perhaps will be a special report from Supreme Master of Exchequer T. D. Meares, who has just returned from a special meeting of, the Supreme Lodge held at Chicago. This report will be of special importance to members of the Endowment Rank and in order that as large a crowd as pos sible may hear it, special arrange ments have been made by which every member, whether in good standing or not, may enter the meeting and hear the report which will be made with reference to the financial condition of that Rank. Mr. Meares has encouraging news and for that reason a large crowd is expected. It is needless to say that the other features, including short talks, recita tions, etc., by members, will be of the usual high order of excellence and every Pythian is urged to attend.
