The committee ask ed the Aldermen last nrgnt for further time and the board granted the re quest with the stipulation that the re port shill not be made later than Wednesday of the coming week. It is absolutely necessary for the order for the election to be (made during the coming week if the vote is to be had during 1907, ana If this is -vtot done then the whole ground will have to be gone over again with entirely new petitions for an election in 1908.

It is said to be entirely within the range of possibility that there will be no purchase of the existing plant at all. The committee which negotia ted the purchase, it was pointed out yesterday, had been led to believe that the plant was earning net $16,- and evenings at 7:30 P. M Rev. Dr. Hale, a member of the State Anti-Saloon League executive commit tee and recognized as the leader of the prohibition forces in Wilmington, in connection with Mr. Ham's visit. Was asked last night if the lqcaj antl saloon league would likely inaugu rate a campaign here for an election on the question of prohibition. Dr. Hale replied that this was undecided; that the anti-saloon league here had asked him to have Mr. Ham make the prohibition feature strong in his revival with a View of educating pub lic sentiment along temperance lines but it would have to be decided later whether the prohibition forces would try for an election before the meeting of the Legislature, which is fifteen months hence. Mr. Ham's work has been largely in prohibition campaigns he given the question during the meet ings here looking forward to some re form at least in the liquor, traffic as j000 per year when as a matter of fact, it is conducted in Wilmington.

KIRTON HERE Pastor of LumbertonChurch May Ac cept Lyceum Engagement. The Star has been furnished. by a friend the following tot, publication: : "Rev. P. L. Kirton, the eloquent pastor of Lumbcrton Methodist Church passed through , the city yesterday on his way to meet some engagements in South Carolina. It is rumored that Mr. Kirton may give Hp the pastorate to accept a flattering offer with a well- fk-nown Lyceum Association. Mr. Kirton is a young man and has filled some of the imost prominent stations In the Methodist Church. As a speak er before the average audience he has no superior. When seen- yester day he said that he was delighted operating expenses furnished the com mission during the deliberation look ing to the-rflnal consummation ' of the trade, that the cost of operation since the filter plant . was installed is ap proximately $24,000 per year, reducing the net -earnings to- about v -$li,ooo, The estimate of .netrearnings- of $16,- 000; -UPO the basi3 pf iwhich the.city agnsen tai traae.-triseems, was ior ine year 1906 before tne filter was; put in, this , increasing . the cost, of operation very; greatly. Mayor Springer and members of the Bord of Aldermen, who have been most active in- the ne gotiations for the purchase, say that they were led to believe that the plant was now earning $16,000 instead of $11,000 or ..thereabouts and in this view of the cas3 they are unwilling to go further with the negotiations unless a majority of both Boards think it best to proceed in the light of what they blandly say has been a misrepresenta tion. As the city pays to the water, company for hydrant rentals and the Service in the public buildings some thingMike $7,000, it is pointed out that outside of what the city is paying the water company, it is payng practical ly nothing on the investment. On the other hand the water company says that ewn with the net earnings of $11,000, this is a five per cent. Invest- 4 State b Waterway Convention ia United States Court Room .
