Business Men of Delaware Endorse the Legislative Opposition. Dover, Del., Jan. 24. - Each Republican member of the Legislature who has not pledged his support to ADDICKS for united States Senator has received a copy of a letter from E. Tatnall WARNER, of Wilmington, President of the Charles Warner Company, and a leading Regular Republican, in which the writer says: "I am informed that a report has been circulated in Dover to the effect that the manufacturers and others located on and doing business on the Christiana have shown a disposition to effect a compromise with Mr. ADICKS in the matter of the Senatorial election. This I felt to be of so much importance as to warrant my calling on the different parties interested in this report, as, in every interview I had with them on the subject, they were strongly opposed to any compromise, preferring to sink any present loss rather than to have Mr. ADDICKS represent this State in the Senate. "I have, accordingly, called upon all the leading manufacturers, and every one of them that I saw declared most positively that it was false in every particular, and that they felt on this subject as I do; that it was to the interest of Delaware to sacrifices any present necessity rather than be represented by Mr. ADDICSKS. It is proper to state that two parties I called upon were not in, and, therefore, I had no opportunity of interviewing them. "I suppose I meet in my business life as many active business men as any other man in the city, and I have to say that of all the men I have met who profess to be Republicans only one, William Michael BYRNE, esp., has expressed himself in favor of a compromise with Mr. ADDICKS." ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ DE-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
