WILMINGTON. DEL.
tlEMftT H. CONDON, Solt Oner.
Says the Daily Republican: "the Wil
ington Electric Uglit Company should
be compelled by an actof the Legislature
to furnish the city of Wilmington with
its light free for tlie privilege of erecting
their poll, and stringing their deadly
wires throughout the city. It is time
the city of Wilmington was receiving
some pay for the different franchises
which it has to give out to different c ir
orations. It would not be a bad idea
for tbe city to own its own electric light
ing plant and if managed as well as the
Water Department it would pav a bte
revenue to the city." °
itis not enly time that the citv of Wil
mington was receiving some pa'v for the
different franchises which it lias fo give
out to different corporations but it is
time that the peopleof Wilmington were
recognized by those corporations.
A railway that runs unfendered care
recklessly through tlie streets an electric
light company that makes prices irre
spective of the people's demands be
cause of no competion, a gas company
that charges enormous nrices for that
llluminant because it is the only com
pany supplying the people is tlie propo
sition that confronts tlie citizens of Wil
mington today.
The trouble is not always with these
corporations. They are controlled bv
men who are eager to gain money. Their
policies, so undesirable to the peonle
could be modified by the Municipal
Government. Hence the people must
themselves set their wrongs right by at
tending tlie municipal primaries, and by
making a canvas of tlie Street and Sewer
Department.

Today he will come into court to

The surprise in the way of a motion
District Attorney Vandegrift that

court opened in the morning. He

the statement made by Senator Kenney
at the close of the case Tuesday
noon, that he had received the retainer
of 300 shares of Bay State Gas Company
from J. Edward Addicks and not
the Bay State Gas Company.
Mr. Vandegrift said lie was surprised
at the testimony of the defendant,
lowing the production of the voucher
Tuesday afternoon, and as soon
after as possible sought to obtain
that the retainer was what it purported
to be. He said he made an effort
day night to inform counsel what
proposed to do, but as he was unable
communicate with them, had put
their hands yesterday morning a list

of his motion, winch authorities lie
Mr. Biggs of counsel for the defense
objected to the district attorney's motion
to reopen the case. He thought to
open the case at this stage would open
very wide door and establish a danger

the motion. He Baid it was an unheard
of application. Mr. Bird claimed
lie and his colleague or client were
afraid of any testimony that might
given, but were not prepared to answer

final argument for the reopening of

itself to the discretion of the Court.
thought the jury entitled to all the
formation obtainable concerning
voucher which he had seen for the
time Tuesday. Mr. Vandegrift said
did not know when the voucher
produoed, what any of tbe men who
approved the voucher could say about
and did not speak of having th
moned at that time. If lie should be
lowed to put his witnesses on the stand
and they should give different testimony
from that of the defendant, he (the
trict attorney) would favor giving coun
sel for the defense time to .produce
additional evidenoeen the point if it
desired.
Tlie court decided that the ease should
be reopened.
In rendering his decision Judge Brad
ford referred to the explanation of Sena
tor Kenney regarding tlie voucher
said at the time there was a great
I of uncertainty in tiieCourt's mind,
tlie contents of the paper, showing
transfer of stock from tile Bay State
Co.,to Kenney and Kenney's bill for legal
services, did not state for whom
legal services were.

to leave as twelve o'clock was the hour

an
an
set for bis wedding. It was 11.45 o'clock
when Mr. Addicks left tbe Federal
building. Tbe marriage took place
at Claymont without any postpone
ment.
During the first half hour of tbe after
noon session the district-attorney fin
ished his prayer and Mr. Biggs presented
the prayer of the defense. The jury has
eight counts in the consolidated indict
ment to consider, six being in the old
indictment, and two in the new con
spiracy indictment.
It was just 3 o'clock when District-At
Vandegrift addressed the jury
saying "Gentlemen, it is not necessary
for me to say that this case is not only
important to the defendant, but to the
people of this Government whom you
and I represent."
Mr. Vandegrift said that, the United
States Government does not ask a jury to
find a prisoner guilty if there is a reason
able doubt us to his guilt. "If there is a
reasonable doubt in your minds that this
defendant is guilty, then it is your duty
to acquit him. But, gentlemen, I say to
you now that there is no doubt. There
never lias been a doubt since the close of
tbe testimony. The defendant is guilty.
"The defendant has had every oppor
tunity and able counsel to present his
case but every point that would show a
reasonable doubt has been met by the
Government and destroyed.
"He is stripped of every defense he
has undertaken to make except when lie
says in his own behalf, 'I don't know'
or 'I don't remember.' The defendant
in this case is a man of business, a lead
ing lawyer of the State, a man who has
held public offices for years and yet he
gave check after check, draft after draft
on the First National Bank and now
says he drew them without any regard
to his bank account.
"He is convicted out of bis own
mouth" said the district attorney. "A
man of his ability never would do this.
The testimony shows that he did know
that he was giving checks for which lie
did not have the money to meet."
Mr. Vandegrift then took up Mr. Ken
ney's bank book and his deposit slips and
then referred to the testimony of the de
fendant where he said he made out his
own deposit slips, Mr. Magee only mak
ing out six. Down the columns were
the figures and amounts and to say that
Kenney did not know how his bank ac-1
count stood would be absurd.
"The defendant was asked to produce
lie check book stubs for the vital period
in 189(>. What does he produce? He
brings his stub books prior to and after
the vital period but not for the period
which would show the actual balance of
his account.
"That a man (Slling public places, as
this defendant does, didn't know his
balance in the bank is utterly incompre
hensible. Do you suppose that on Mav
Jj, when he drew a check for *2,800 and
only had $254 in the bank that lie didn't
know what he had in bank?"
The district attorney then referred to
the testimony of W. N. Boggs and said
that this would be attacked by counsel
for Mr. Kenney. Mr. Vandegrift said
that .the jury could leave out the testi
mony of VV. N. Boggs and yet find Ken
ney guilty or. the evidence of the books
of the Farmers'Bank and of the First
National Bank. "On these books the
defendant is guiltv as charged in tile in
dictment." Then the district attorney
took up the draft sent by Kenney to a
man in Beaufort, N. C., and showed that
Boggs'- testimony in regard to it iiad
been confirmed. "4>3,260 worth of
checks," said Mr. Vandegrift, "given
with an understanding on this bank
without funds to meet them, and then
this defendant expects you to believe
that lie didn't know Boggs was carrying
them." '
The district attorney showed that
"wlierever Boggs states a fact, and you
gentlemen, stretch out to facts over
which he had no control, he is born out
in every instance." Mr. Vandegrift
took the case of the William M. Dickson
check which Boggs had said was given
by Mr. Dickson to Kennev and the cash
deposited to Kenney's account in the
First National Bank.' "Kenney eaid he
gave this check to Mr. Magee and Magee
caehed it. Mr. Magee came on the stand
and testified that at the time the check
was given in Dover lie was at the Uni
versity of Virginia.
"Let the learned counsel for the de
fense tell me what object IV. N Boggs
had in carrying *3,000, and $4,000 and
$o,000 for this defendant if it was not by
an understanding with this defendant
Boggs didn't yet a dollar of it. He was
carrying checks, which if his employes
Mad discovered lie would immediately
have been lost. 1 \
'Do you do that for fun?" said the
district attorney, "do you do that
because you like to? No—because you
have to. Because von are in' it
with the other man, 'with whom you
have lost money, striiMin* hand* in

does not appeal one-eigbth as much

Mr. Vandegrift said that all Mr. Ken
ney's ounnael would talk about would
tbe ignorance of Kenney and the rascal
ity of Boggs. He said the jury night
sweep Boggs out and take the books and
documentary evidence before them and
still Kenney is guilty. The district at
torney in meeting the defense's argu
ment that Boggs had malice toward
Kenney, went on to show how Boggs
had destroyed every vestage of evidence
against Kenney and all the others that
were in it witli him, and walked out
into night and desolation. ''Boggs did
not confess the crime against these peo
ple. No, he shouldered the crime him
self and left these men high in the social
world and in matters of State, to enjoy
life and the comfort of their families, tie
left his wife and four little
went out into a life of desolation.
"I)oe9 this look like malice toward the
men who had sacked his young life? No!
it looks like a man who says 'I am
guilty. I won't ask that the crime be put
on those men whose families are as dear
to them as mine is to me. Let the cur
tain drop.'
"And he went and he didn't disclose the
crime of Kenney or any of the other
men. How was it disclosed? Mr. Bate
man the cashier has told you. In the
trouble just after Boggs fled, Mr. Morris
and Mr. Cooper of the Fanners' Bank in
the kindnesB of good neighbors offered
their services to the First National
Bank. While Cooper was in the First
National Bank at work straightening out
the defalcation, he said to Mr. Bateman
that 'these names of the drawers of these
checks are itemized on the foreign check
book of the Farmers' Bank.' Mr. Bate
man went to Mr. Morris and found such
was the case. Then the door was laid
open. It's the old story,you can't cover
crime so that it wont come out."
Mr. Vandegrift described how the in
dividuals connected in the defalcation
were thus discovered by tracing the
books of the Farmers' Bank. All this
was over when Boggs returned from his
life of exile.
"Mr. Ross told you he would never
have found who the individuals were in

ac-1 this defalcation if it hadn't been for the
Farmers' Bank. Remember this then
when counsel for this defendant under
take to deflect you from the real issues
hi this case by vituperation of William
N. Boggs.
Mr. Vandegrift took up the testimony
of the defense which had been brought
to contradict Boggs and in every ease tie
showed conclusively that the contradic
,ion had failed flatly as the Government
had produced competent witnesses who
bad testified contradictory to the de
fense's witnesses,
The district attorney said that tf W.
N. Boggs had malice against 11. R. Ken
'"W be would not upon leaving Dover
have left all his worldly assets with him
(Kenney).
After speaking of the testimony of
James F. Mclvor and James Cody who
testified respectively that Brockson and
Hazell had sworn falsely, the district at
torney said "there is another rung in the
ladder on which Kenney tries to climb
out of his crime, distroyed in your
sight.
"The defendant Eaid E. T. Cooper and
Boggs suggested his going into Bay Stale
Gas. I asked Mr. Kenney 'were you
counsel for the Bay State Gas Company
ot Delaware?' He said, 'never in my
life.' 'Did you receive a retainer from
tbe?' 'No, sir.' I then asked him if
be didn't on August 8 transfer seme
stock to another man. He said no, but
it was getting hot for him and admitted
getting 100 shares for a private gentle
! nan ,' but didn't want to say anything
birtlier. Boggs said Kenney gave the

BoggsI away because Kenney was counsel

"Gentleman, if there.wasn't anything
but that awful swearing, you would
have to convict Richard R. Kenney and
1 ask you to regard it leniently. The de
fendant knows be is guilty."'
Mr. Vandegrift showed that Kenney
paid up the money gotten on his account
but did not pay up the money gathered
on Boggs' account.
"If the revelation of the defalcation
had come on in May 11, 18UG, this de
fendant would have been wiiere poor

guilty."
Mr. Vandegrift showed that if the
crash had come on July, 15,1880, Kennev
at that time bad *4,380.01 of the bank's
money without the consent of the bank.
On July 22, 1890, he had *4,070.01 ap

NATURAL GAS.
A New Fuel Without the Use
Coal.
The writer saw today a new invention,
which, when introduced, cannot help
but revolutionize the methods of heating
cook and other stoves. It is the Cham
pion Oil Burner exhibited by David
Barnhisel and F. M. Hopkins for the
Cleveland Company, and what It will
do is surprising. The principle
this burner is that common coal oil
converted into gas; tbe oil is placed in
large can, which may be stationed
dozen or a hundred feet away from the
stove. Tlie oil is carried through
small rolled pipe to the burners, which
are first heated, and then as fast as the
oil flows it is converted into gas, which
mixes with 90 per cent, air and 10 per
cent, carbon oil gas, passing through tlie
burner anu producing a long blue flame
intense heat, free irom smoke and odor.
The combustion being perfect, there
no waste of fuel. When we add to this
that there is no danger, it is impassible
not to feel, as we see the intense flame
circling around tiie flue, witli the power
to hold so many pots, that the cooking
and heating question lias been dealt
with in a masterful and successful
ner.
man
These gentlemen are located here at
41o Market street, opposite the 5 and 10
cent store, for a few days, where they
will be glad to exhibit the invention to
anyone. It may be put in any stove
will,out changing or damaging the latter
in the least, and after it m in, will heat
tlie largest size cook stove or range for
three-quarters of a cent per hour. The
Tbe company is soon to put the burners
in tlie hands of agents, who will retail
them at about *10 apiece. To get them
started in this vicinity, one may buy
direct of tlie manufacturers free on board
cars at Cleveland ior half that sum for
the next few days or until an agent is
appointed. Whether one wishes to buy
or not, it is worth one's while to visit
trie store to see tills ingenious article.
Heat Without Cost.
Attached to any lamp the Lex Radia
tor will warm a room the coldest weather.
Mailed to any address 80 cents, and if
not satisfactory return and get your
money back. Liberal terms to .agents.
