Successor First Official Meeting
Tomorrow Morning. '. ,
It is now Mayor Parker Quince
yoore instead of Councilman. Moore,
ss durins the past two years.
At noon today in the presence of a
crowd which taxed the capacity of
the office in the
city hall building
and of the corrid
or without, Mayor
;J Moore
and his
lieutenants, as
follows, were duly
sworn into office,
and are now . at
the helm of the
political ' ship;

Second Ward. Mr. T. W. Wood; Third
Ward. Mr. B. A. Merritt; Fourth
Ward, Mr. D. N. Chadwick, Jr.; Fifth
Ward. C. C. Loughlin, Esqv Before
turning over the keys of the city to
his successor, Retiring Mayor Jos. .T.
Smith made a neat "speech, which
was highly complimented, as were
the remarks of his 'successor, Mayor
Moore. . .
Immediately after the exercises
were finished adojurnment of the new
Council was taken. The first formal
meeting of the body will be held to
morrow at Jr:15 a. m.
Some minutes before the noon Jiour
the mayor's office commenced to . be
filled with persons who wished tcv wit
ness the inauguration of the new city
fathers. There-" were1 fecores brifiehdl
of the new administration who found
it impossible to get within the con
fines of the rather Bmall Councilmanic
chamber.
Promptly at noon, -the members of
the retiring board, with the exception
of the new mayor, took their seats at
the official table. They were called
to order by Mayor Smith. A feature
of the assemblage was the presence
of a number of ladies, who gathered
to witness the exercises. They dis
played marked interest in the differ
ent features.
In calling the assemblage to order
Mayor Smith asked the spectators not
to talk, and to remain as quiet as
possible throughout the exercises.'
Captain Thomas D. Meares then
read the official result of the election,
which stated the majorities of the
new officials. The returns did not
vary from the lists as made up last
nilht. In concluding, Captain Meares
stated that the document held the
official stamp of the members of the
City Board of Elections; declaring
the new mayor, and the five members
f Council the choice of a majority
of the voters of Wilmington.
Mayor Smith stated that before
turning over the keys of the city to
his successor he had a few remarks
to mak He stated that he had often
been urged by a number of his friends
t( write out statements but that he
ad thought it unwise to do-so.
Throughout his official term as mayor
he had tried to fill honestly and truly
the obligations of the oath which he
took two years ago. He felt that the
splendid progress which had been
made by the city under the guidance
of the retiring Council would be con
Ceded even by any enemies. What
eTr success his administration had
met with had been due to the co-operation
of ,he members of council and
the citizens. Special credit had to be
glven to the streets and wharves de
partment, and .'to the police -department,
for Sjgnal accomplishment. Of

possiblev tWhile1 the -mayor's work
may.-not have shown up, he had tried
to keep his feet on the ground and
pursue a careful course. He believed
that conservatism and delay, in many
cases, had served to save the city
money, mentioning the sewerage
question. The mayor had sought a
higher power daily for guidance and
believed that aid and comfort had
been given.
Mayor Smith then appealed to all
fair-minded citfzens to join hands and
co-operate with the new adnrinistra.
tion. He thought the new mayor and
members of Council would ever heed
advice and would lend a willing ear
to advice or counsel. He asked any
one with - grievances, or suggestions
not to rush into the newspapers post
haste, but to take up the matters
with the new officials. The latter
would . ever be ready to assist and
listen to reason or argument. The
mayor hoped tha tthe good orders of
the past two years would be main
tained, and that in future if some one
said his own administration had been
a good one, that it would also be said
that the succeeding one of Mayor
Moore had been a better one.
Mayor Smith then asked Recorder
John J. Furlong to administer the
oath of office to the new mayor. This,
the Recorder did, a new Bible pre
sented to the new mayor being used
for the purpose. The Bible contained
the following inscription: "Wilming

The oath of office taken by Mayor

SPECIAL HEW JERSEY
SESSION STARTS
Trenton, N. J., May 6. Pursuant to
the call of Governor Fielder the New
Jersey legislature convehed in spe
cial session today to take up the sub
jects of jury' reform and the calling
of a convention to revise the Constitu
tion. Suggestion is also rnade in the
Governor's call that the legislature
should pass a valid enactment ratify
ing the popular vote in - adopting the
provisions of a small freeholder board
act in several of the counties.
The' principal subject to be consid
ered by the lawmakers is the question
of having commissioners, appointed
by the courts, select grand jurors in
stead of the sheriffs. A bill with this
in view failed to pass the legislature
at its Tegular sessions which adjourn
ed April 1 4th, despite 1 the efforts of
President Wilson and Governor' Field
er to have such a law enacted. Since
the call "f or the special session both
the President; and thev Governor have
.delivered public f addresses , strongly
OTging me peopie xo support tne pro
posed reform of the jury system. The
opponents of the President in his own
party are expected to renew their at
tempts to block any legislation divest
ing sheriffs of their power to summon
juries. '
