Dilworth. president of the 01 Council, that he intends to retire fr politics. at least temporarily. Mr. Dil'wor‘th made the announcement last night at. the City Council meeting. The surprise is all the greater, be- cause It was contidenOy expected that Mr. Dilworth would make a strong light for the Republican nomination for mayor this fall. Said Mr. Dilworih: "I have decided on this step simply and solely for business reason .' To be a councilman properly takes a great deal of time and [can't tulle part any other way than with heart and soul In the work. ' “During the time i have been in of- fice everybody has treated me finely and“! have enjoyed myself very much. I am no candidate for any further of- fice. It takes too much time from my business and I shall be out of It for a year at least. Later I may get Into the field again." Mr. Dilworth has been a city coun- cilman for three years, this Council making him president of their body. and he has been a fighter from the word go. Not always have his fellow members of the board agreed with him. but they have believed him sincere. One of the most interesting features of Mr. Dilworth's political career has been the manner in which he has up. held City Clerk J. Belden Hllrlbutt, who has ohposod him many times. During his term of office, Mr. Dil- whrih won an excellent record. Among the accomplishments to which he may point with pride is the rebuild- Ing of the Norwulk railroad passenger depot. Others tried to bring the change about, but Councilman Dil- worih kept at the railroad officials un- til the work was actually under way. He was also the means of the bond issue for the present big extension of the sewers. When the time came for selling the 835,000's worth of sewer bonds. he hung out for par and had the pleasure of seeing the price rise steadily from'iii until they brought ex- actly one hundred cents on the dollar. To him is due the installing of many incandescent electric lights about illtI city, ill plucoo‘where arc lights could not be consistently established. thus satisfying many people. lie waged a fight against the promiscuous distribu- tion of poles about the city. nmrring the latter‘s beauty. and this year he has established an excellent system ill the Fire Dcpnrilnnt, which is running smoothly. iio also brought ubrmt many improvements at the Main strct tire house and has others ill contem' pluiion for the Hope Hose quarters in Water street. The voters of the city will therefore miss his smiling countenance at the Water street polls next October: his famous green tin and happy songs, . _ WWI» , m2 l p Aaaoclation'a Annual Meeting at Inb- rray at Hillside.

PHILADELPHIA, June 17.——Attor- ncy General Bonaparte for the gov- ernment and John Johnson. of Phila- delphia, representing the various ruil‘ roads involved. clused the arguments for their respective sides today In the proceedings Instituted by the govern- ment to restrain the conicarrylng rail» roads from transporting coal from mines In which they are financially outside the state. The suit against the railroads ,was instituted under the commodity clause of the Hepburn act and the constitutionality of that clause rests upon the decision of Judges Dab ins, Gray and Burlington, who are sit- ting as an equity. The railroads attack the constitu- tionality of the clause on the ground that it is not a regulation but a “pro- hibition"; that it is class legislation; that it constitutes a taking of the companies’ rights without just com. pcusution and that the penalties pro- vided for are excessive and prohibi- tive.
