raOCT STREET LIQUOR!
DENS OF VICE TO TRAP THE
UNWARY.
i PLACES THAT SHOULD BE AVOIDED
i
i. lhe *'«ent eases of bunko swindling that
I bavo c ? me tü on Front street have at
tr,lctc ^ a 8 rent deal of attention to that
very unsavory locality. The schemes and
u 8 t# concocted and put in operation by
the habitues of the dens there are numerous
aud ingenious. It is hardly safe for u
stranger to wander alone along the street,
much less to enter one of the vile licensed
holes where sharers arc continually laying
in wait for victims.
Not one-third of the cases of robbery and
assault that occur there are ever reported,
the victims in most instances being ashamed
to make known their loss or to seek the aid
of the jiollce. The officers themselves are of
course not ullowed to cuter any of the dive«
unless called u(>on, but they are kept busy
warning and protecting intoxicated men and
•'grecnles" who arc being led into the toils,
The sharper« and runners who frequent
the haunts, s|H»t their victim, particularly If
he apjicursto have money. 11c is approached
by a supposed friend, perhaps given u cigar,
and invited to take a drink If lie yields to
the invitation he is gone, for one glass of
the vile Ce -oc lion sold for liquoi renders
him inen| able. The rest is always the same,
Htopefied aud bewildered ' and without
nioney, he is hustled into the street, and
wanders otfa poorer, wiser, and sicker man.
A few days ago a stranger entered a well
known ranch near Market street, apparently
sober, wearing a silk lint aud wcll-tUtiug
clothes. He was seen to go In. Inside of
an hour he hurriedly eamc out, Ills clothes
disordered, Ids face haggard and in place of
the silk ilto sporting an old slouch hat.
When questioned afterwards by the j>nlico
he said that he hardly knew what hspi»encd
or how he got ont.
A favorite scheme is to entice those who
arrive on the cars and are in Ignorance of
the city. Not long since a stranger having
some business in this city started for the
train. Going along Front street he entered
un "eating house" and after having some
lunch took a glass of liquor. Aliuosc lin
mediately lie began to l#*l stupid and under
the circcts of some drug. Fearing that all
was not right he hastened out and was
probably saved the loss of his watch and
money. Upon entering he had usked the
in attendance what time the next train
for Philadelphia left and was told "not for
two hours," although he afterwards learned
it started in a few iniuutcs.
The presence of the low saloons is a dis
grace to the city, and the Mayor has issued
stringent orders to his odicers to do all in
their j>owcr to' bring the hangers-on, who
prey upon the unsuspecting, to Justice,
proprietors are very careful not to directly
implicate t hcinMelves in any manner, but
oiler, it is charged, the shelter of their
places to the swindler«.
Hardly a day passe« but that a watch or
pocket book is missing. Three-fourths of
the arrests lbr drunkenness made in the
city arc along Front street, aud two-thirds
of that number betweeu Market und Walnut
streets.
Mayor Wales feel* assured that the evil
will not be abated so long as the »y stein of
license now iu vogue continues. He favors
the. living of the license fee at such a ligure
that the cheap and nasty dens will be driven
out of the city. There will always be liquor
as a matter of course, and they
should be kept as respectable as poj-sitde..
A facetious gentleman tliiuks it would he
a good plan for the City Council to erect
sign posts in the neighborhood of the depot
reading, "Beware of Front street rum," and
thus save trouble to the uninitiated.

WILLI AM H. THOMPSON'S DEATH.
Kiul ot the Siitvivliig Member of tlic
firm ol Thompson \ Locke—Sketch of
Ilia Lire.
William II. Thompson, the well-known
ß roprictor of the restaurant at the P. W. tV
. depot, who has been confined to his bed
for a long lime, suffering from enlargement
of the liver, died shortly before 12 o'clock
last night at the residence of John Mcaley,
on Market street near Second. Mr. Thomp
son was the surviving partnt r ot the firm of
Thompson A: Locke, and was taken ill
shortly after the death ol hi« partner Joseph
K. Locke last summer.
Deceased was born in Maine,
town of Auburn, May 2, 1827. In 1855 he
became uii engineer on the I*., W. «V B. rail
road, »ml some years later w as promoted to
the position of train dispatcher at the depot
here, and Liter became a conductor, in
which position lie was much trusted. Mr.
Thompson established the depot restaurant
in 1808 ami shortly afterward admitted Mr.
Locke into partnership. He was taken sick
in August, having had severe hemorrhages.
His death was not at all unexpected.
Tho funeral w ill take pince on Sunday
afternoon at 3.80 o'clock. Until alter the
funeral tho restaurant w ill only be opened
during the stoppage of trains. Since Mr.
Locke's death Thomas Mullen has been Mr.
Thompson'« partner.

A Disgraceful I'erformance.
During tbe progress of tho ''Lights O'
Loudon" last evening, two women and a
K-cupied the lower lelt hand private
box, and their conduct M as such ns should
have ended in their summary ejectment.
Their action* eyen In a variety theatre would
have received i in mod! ate condemnation.
One of the women and tho man were partic
ularly disgraceful in their demeanor, at
tracting fitc attention of the whole audience
to their brnjteu acte. Tbe names of the
offending purties could not be obtained.
The man. who wo*smooth-faced and hollow
cheeked, is said to be u morocco worker
and a member of a social club on Market
street. A feeling of disgust pervaded tho
audience, and tiie management ol the house
will do well to prevent a repetition of the

more widely and in raoro bitter hatred than
ever before. Die recent.attack.- upon chair
man Harrington will have a tendency to
make contest» within the party even more
* lta U'd and can only breed trouble.
This might not be il i. wer« possible
'-o drive Harrington and hi» friend« out of
politics, and the openly avowed object of the
fusilade which the managers have been
pouring at him is to do this,but In this they
will not succeed. The Dover faction-is
terribly down uow, brit its leaders can com-[
ntand all the strength they ever could, and
the denunciation inspired by Mr. Higgins'
friends will need to be backed up by
shrewder plans than they have .vet cm
ployed the next time the tvto wings cross
sword» or the Juntu will still he on top.
Harrington's friends arc very Indignant
and their talk lead» to the supposition that
it will be many a day before il •• bn-ach will
he filled up. "All we want," raid one of
them, "is to see Higgins or one of his
frauds come out for some ollln*. We have

the committee took up Dick as it leader
Mr. llaMingh' friends deny that ho was

other hand," said one of them to day, "I
have it from Wash himself that he was op.
posed to anything ol the kind, and that lie
urged I)r. Collins not to appoint him on the
committee." This denial is. of course,good

LYNCH VERSUS MAR'

THE CASE ARGUED BEFORE
THE GOVERNOR.
LEGAL COUNSEL ON BOTH SIDES.
I. V. Grubb, Ksq.. Represent* Mr. Ljr
And M
pear for Mr. Martin.
rs. Biggins and Bradford Ap
Yeiterday afternoon Governor Hall was
earnestly engaged In hearing arguments by
counsel on behalf of the respective claimants
for the Sheriffalty commission for New Castle
county.
Ignatius C. Grtsbb, Esq., appeared on
behalf of Purnal J. Lvncb, aud Anthony
Higgins and Edward G. Bradford, Esqs,,
for James Martin.
Mr. Grubb's argument was a thorough i
and complete presentation of the facts and 1
the law of Mr. Lynch's case.
He began by saying Mr. Lynch bad the
right, belonging to every citizen, to have
the merits of his case, according to the law
and the facts, fully and fairly presented by
legal counsel. That the public feeling o'r
New Castle county was profoundly stirred
and that there was a deeply rooted convie
tion among the Democratic voters of the
county that Mr. Lynch was lawfully elected
und that Mr. Martin was not, aud that till-»
feeling was intensified because two years
ago the Democratic Board of Canvass had
given the certificate to Philip R. Clark, the
Republican candidate for Sheriff, because
tlic Board then Believed they were thus giv
ing practical effect to the real voice of the
people, although In strict law*, their legal
power to do so was doubted.
Mr. Grubb then claimed that the Gover
nor should now, us the Democratic Board
then did, give effect to the real will of the
legal voters by giving
Mr. Lynch if he could
the commission to
discover any legal
ground therefor which would be sustained
by the court« if contested there. Ho then
proceeded substantially as follows : There
are two certificates before the Governor. The
Governor is hound to issue the com mis
sion to the
in the
•andldate who is named
legal certificate. But
■I which
01 *110 two in really the legul certlflcate !• the
quebtlnu ttie Governor I, called upon to de
ride before he can traue any eomintaalou.
He then claimed that the
Mr. Lynch 1» the legal one amt that Mr.
Martin's is illegal and insuffleient. He
further urged that II Mr. Lynch's certllicatc
was illegal and insufficient then the Uov
ither of the eandi
duu-s but must leave them to a resort to
mandamus requiring, most probably, that
tbe Board ol Canvass should re-convene and
perform and complete Ils duties iu regular
aud legal form.
After a thorough review of the proceed
ings of the Board aud all the circumstanced
surrounding its entire action Mr. Grnbb
claimed that the facts demonstrated that
the ascertainment of the result ol the elec
tion as shown by tbe Martin certificate had
been reconsidered by tlic Board after the
Mill Creek hundred discrepancy Wat dis
covered and thereupon decided iu favor of.
Lynch, and that the Board, by order Of the
Sheriff, was actually engaged In signing 'he
new certificate for Lynch,whenthe Sheriff,by
the revolutionary and advice of his counsel
lors, illegally and unsuccessfully attempted :
to adjourn aud break up tbe Board hv aban
doning their cause and deserting their sworn
duty. He further claimed that the entire
Hoard, according to ids view of the evidence. '
having ascertained the result in favor of
Lynch betöre said desertion by part of its
members, those who remained present after
Us lawlul reorganization were under the
precise letter and real meaning of the
statutes legally competent to complete and
deliver the Lynch certificate to the fiover
Mr. Grubb concluded by reading from
the laws of the State tile statutory pro
visions upon which he based iris proixud
s of law.
