It was by this means that dueling was stopped in a cer- tain district in Kentucky some forty years ago. At that time a traveling preacher ed Bowman, a strong, muscular man, was conducting a series of religious meetings in Kentucky. At one of them a well-known desperate character created a disturbance, and, being publicly rebuked by Bowman, sent him a challenge to fight. The preacher’s #-st thought was to treat the matter with silent contempt. Then he reflected that dueling was all too common in that region, and he decided to accept the challerge. As the challenged party Bowman had the choice of weapons. He selected a half bush- el of large Irish potatoes, and stipulated that his opponent must stand fifteen paces distant and that only one potato at a time should be taken from the measure. The desperado was furious, but Bowman insisted upon his rights as the challenged party, and threatened to denounce the fel- low as a coward if he made further objec- tions. Seeing no way out of the scrape the desperado at last consented. The contest took place on the outskirts of the town, and almost everybody in the place turned out to see the fun. The sec- onds arranged the two men in position, by the side of each being a half-bushel meas- ure filled with good-sized potatoe: Bowman threw the first one. It struck his opponent in a central spot and fell in pieces. A shout of delight went up from the crowd which flurried the desperado, and his potato flew wide of the mark. Bowman watched his chance, and every time his opponent stooped for a potato an- other one hit him in the side, leaving a wet spot on his clothes and then scattering on all sides. The fellow was hit in this way five times; then the sixth potato struck him in the short ribs, and he lay on the grass doubled up with pain and groanin; “Enough!” The bystanders went wild with delight, but Mr. Bowman looked very sober. The desperado was taken home and put to bed, and there he stayed for more than a week. And when he again appeared he was grce' ed with so many jokes that life was almost a burden to him. * That was the end of dueiing in that re- gion.

IMULEY HASSAN The Effect of His Death on Foreign Policies of the Powers, FRANCE SENDS A FLEET T0 TANGIER England Urged to Take Similar Steps. GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS a eS TOULON, France, June 12.—Four war- ships, under Admiral Le Bourgeois, have started for Tangier. The ironclads Magen- ta, Admiral Duperre and Alger, under Ad- miral Gadaud, have also been ordered to place themselves in readiness to sail for Morocco at the shortest notice. LONDON, June 12.—The news of a dis- patch of a French fleet to Morocco and of the preparation being made to reinforce it if necessary is attracting considerable at- tention here. The news from Morocco is far from being reassuring and civil war is anticipated. Conflicting reports are still in circulation in regard to the death of the late Sultan of Morocco, and the general opinion seems to be that Sultan Abdul Aziz will have to defend his throne with the sword. The Pall Mall Gazette this afternoon, re- ferring to the jealousy of the powers in re- gard to Morocco, says that the danger to European peace is due to the fact that M. Dupuy is premier and that he may take this opportunity of striking a blow at En- glish prestige. .A policy of aggression would be popular in France and Spain, which countries would certainly be satisfied with a dual control of Morocco, excluding Eng- land from having any voice in the affairs yuntry. fgne Globe and the St. James Gazette ex- t that a civil war will be the only way of settling the succession to the throne of Mthe aiobe, in view of the dispatch of & : (0 Morocco, counsels - Prelate strengthening of the British fleet of that country. ot aispasch fo the Standard from Madrid “fhe Spanish nnuister at Tanglor tele- graphs to the government that the foreign minister at Tangier has informed the for- eign representatives that the sultan died of a malignant fever from which he had suf- fered before. No doctor was present at the time of his death. ‘All the Spanish officers and diplomats here who have recently been in Morocco apprehend serious trouble if the fanatical party, headed by Muley Mahommed, the eldest’ son of the late sultan, should resist the proclamation of his brother 1s sultan. It appears that Muley Mahommed had late- ly given hia father so much offense that he kept him under arrest for some time, and remonstrated with him for his ferocity and bad conduct, but had ultimately allowed him to go to Fez. Four brothers of the late sultan are also likely to prove a source of trouble to Abdul Aziz. TANGIER, June 12.—The remaias of the late Sultan Muley Hassan have been sent, under military escort, to Rabat, for burl ‘The succession of the late sultan’s young- est son, Abdul Aziz, has been accepted at Casa Bianca; but a hostile feeling prevails at Fez, where Muley Ismail, a brother of the deceased sultan, has been acting «s the sultan’s representative.

The disturbance was more severely felt in the latter prov- ince. At Nacimento, twenty-four miles from Almeria, several houses collapsed. Several were killed and a number wounded by the collapse of the buildings at that piace. A church and some school buildings are a heap of ruins. THE FATE OF It Will Be Decided by the Tribunal at Bangkok. PARIS, June 12.—The officials of the Sia- mese legation in this city declare that the trouble between France and Siam, rece! reported from Bangkok, is greatly exag- gerated. They add that the mixed tribunal at Bangkok will shortly reassemble and de- liver judgment in the case of Phrayot, the Mandarin who is accused of the murder of M. Grosgurin, the French agent. Phrayot has already been tried and acquitted of the crime charged against him, which was one of the causes of the recent dispute between France and Siam. Phrayot, it is claimed, will appear in person for judgment to be pronounced upon him. PAIN. PHRAYOT. Quiet Restored in Salvador. LONDON, June 12.—Lazard Freres, the well-known bankers, have received a cable- gram confirming the report that the revoli- tionists in the republic of Salvador have been victorious.

Proposed Legislation Affecting the I terstate Commerce Commissio: PHILADELPHIA, June 12.—The Manu- facturers’ Club of this city is to be repre- sented at the conference to be held in Washington on June 13, between the var- fous commercial bodies of the United States and the interstate commerce com- mittee of the House of Representatives by Mr. Jerome Catty. The conference at Washington 1s in re- gard to the amendments proposed to the interstate commerce act in general and es- pecially in regard to railroad pooling. These amendments comprise: First—Certain powers to the commission whereby their orders and mandates may be carried into effect through the various cir- cuit courts of the United States. Second—Pooling agreements between the various trunk line railroads, provided the terms of the agreements are submitted to and approved by the interstate commerce commission. The conference will attempt to harmonize these important questions as affecting the respective interests of the shippers on the one hand and the railroads on the other ni — KANSAS POPULISTS.

Mrs. Eckloff Objected to His Methods of Fixing Teeth—Judge Mil- ler's Caustic Comments. Dr. Thacker E. Lee, who is at present engaged in the practice of dentistry, at his cffice on lith street, was in Judge Miller's court this afternoon as a defendant in a case involving a charge of assault. The defendant was a member of the police force for several years, and soon after he re- signed he entered upon the practice of his profession. That was seven years ago, and tcday wes the first time he has appeared |in court since he severed his connection | with the force. The charge against hira | Was simple assault, although the prosecut- | ing witness alleged that the assault charged was of an indecent character. The prosecuting witness was Mrs. Annie Eckloff, wife of Mr. Harry Eckloff, and daughter-in-law of ‘ex-Lieut. Eckloff of the police force. Lawyer Shillington rep- | resented the defendant, and Mr. Mullowney prosecuted the case. Mr. Eckloff was the first witness ex- amined, and he testified that he and Dr. Lee had been good friends for some time. The doctor had complained of hard times, he said, and witness had told him that he would throw in his way all the work he could. Last Friday he went to the den- tist’s office, Introduced his wife to the doc- tor, and left her there, as ne had to go to work. When he got home} that evening his wife made complaint to him about what had taken place in the dentist's office. Mrs. Eckloff testified that she went to the dentist's, as she wanted to have a plate made. She took her seat in the dentist's chair, and when other patients came in she stepped aside at the doctor's request and waited till he waited on them. He spoke to her about her weight and appearance, and she told him that she weighed 154 pounds, while her husband weighed more than 200 pounds. When she first sat in the chair, she said, the defendant smoothed her hair, but she overlooked this and really paid no attention to it. Later, she said, he pushed against her. Even then she said Nothing, although she did not like his ac- tions. Then, she said, he put his hand on her knee, and moved it in the direction of her body, pressing against her leg with his hand, us though he wanted to attract her attention. Then {t was, she said, that he told her she was almost as heavy as her husband, and witness then made known to the de- fendant her objection to his cond “I'm a lady,” she told him, submit to no such conduct.” The defendant, she said, then told her that he meant nothing by what he had done. ‘I did it In a weak moment,’ he said to said witness. ‘It was an act of my head and not of my heart.’ ‘The defendant, she said, then went on to ray that her nusband thought he was a gentleman, and asked if ehe did not think £0. She replied that she did not. Defend- ant told her that he was a gentleman, that he was a man of family, and bad a sick wife, adding: “I have never troubled any other woman.” Witness said she told him she was sorry that she was the first victim. Dr. Lee asked her about returning, and she told him she would not return alone, because she was afraid. H2 then besxed her not to tell her husband, and said he was willins co get on his knees and apolo- gize, for he knew if she told her husband, the latter would knock his head off. The doctor asked her if she had ever studied doctors’ books, and she told him she had not. “If you do,” he said, “it will prove that the man js the weaker of the two sexes.” Witness went home and told her husband of what had happened. Defendant's Story. The defendant then took the stand in his own behalf, and gave himself a good char- acter, saying he had served in the navy, and had also served on the police force five years, and made an honorable record. “How long have you lived here?” he was asked. “Seventeen years.” He started out by telling the court that the woman's husband and himself were mutual friends. 3 “There w mutual admiration existing between us,” he safd, “and I certainly would not have intentionally insulted or as- saulted his wife.” He said he had an extended conversation with her concerning her teeth, and told of bex@®.g the compound with which to take the impression. He had no recollection of having smoothed her head, but said it was not only customary, but was necessary, to arrange a patient’s head. Defendant said he talked to her about the weight of her husband, “and my right hand, with no ma- liclous intent, but thoughtlessly, fell upon her knee, and I said, ‘You are almost as stout as your husband.’ ” “No, I ain't,” Mrs. Eckloff said. ‘Don’t touch’ me.” Later they talked about a deposit being made for the work, and when she got ready to leave defendant asked her about her next visit. Then it was, he sald, that she made complaint, and said she would be afraid to return alone. Defendant said he told her then that he meant no disrespect; that he was a gentle- man, and had worked for some of the best people in Washington. Since she felt of- tended, however, he said to her that he was willing to beg her pardon, and on his knees, if necessary. “If that is an assault,” he sald to the court, ‘then I am willing to stand the pun- ishment.” aninet was your purpose?” inquired Judge ler. “I had no purpose,” he answered, “I did joughtlessly and without regard to her it Be ‘Was any part of fixing the teeth neces- sary to put your hand on her as you did?” “No, sir,” he responded, and then he told the court that there was a feeling between dentist or doctor and patient which did not exist between others and sometimes the former is a little more familiar than he ought to be. A number of witnesses were called to give evidence as to the good reputation of the deferdant. Sent to Ja! The reputation of a man in a case like this, Judge Miller said, amounts to very lit- tle. Any one with any common sense knows that a man of bad reputation has no such opportunities. He has to assault peo- ple on the highways, where there are usual- ly persons who will knock him down. The familiarity that grows out of che profes- sion as related by the defendant, the Judge said, he was happy to say did not exist among the dentists generally, for he knew dentists generally are honorable men. ‘When it does exis sald the judge, “it is the duty of the court to lay hands on the defendant in a manner that will put an end to such conduct for a long time.”” Judge Miller praised Mrs. Eckloff for hav- ing the courage to bring the case to the attention of the court, and after further comments said that the imposition of a fine would not answer in such a case, and following in the line of the plea of Mr. Mullowney, he said: “The sentence of the court is that the defendant be confined in the county jail for a period of three months.” The defendant's wife, who was in court, fainted and had to be carried from the gourt room. Later in the afternoon the doctor went to jail. —_ > Tomorrow's Card. ‘The card tomorrow on Alexander's Is- land is as follows: irst rac half furlongs—Cloverdale, 103; Alanthracite, *8; Jim Fagin, 103; Roman, 101; Meadows, v1; Kuby, 1 d Dick, 103; Little Cap- tain, 101; O'Kelly, 103; Finance, 103; Red Elm, 103; Patste, 88.

POLITICS THE CONTROLLING MOTIVE A Coalition Between the Aristocrat and the Populist. TARIFF ITEMS ANALYZED Senator Hoar today made a formal tariff speech in the Senate. The argument for the American policy of keeping American markets for American workingmen has, he said, been stated in many wi Our early statesmen who won the great contest of the revolution, who the leaders of the young nation, liked to put the arguments for protection on the ground that it was essential to nationa! indepen- dence. Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, Hamilton and John Adams held that view, and later Webster and Cluy and John Quincy Adams and Calhoun, until he ceased to be a national ard became a southern statesman, dealt rather with the necessity for nationa: wealth for varlety of employ- ment, for encouragement of infant indus- trjes which needed a fostering care to put them on their feet. Later still, the states- men of the country saw that we were be- coming a great manufacturing nation, and that the destiny of the country was to be controlled by the men who did the work in the workshops and on the farms, that those men would not be fit for the august func- tions of sovereignty unless a seale of wages were maintained enablirg them to live in comfort and to keep a standard of living which would save citizenship from debase- ment. But in all these arguments the ques- tion has been dealt with cn a national and comprehensive scale. I wish to tuke an ex- ample of an individual and local Industry. ma Mr. Hoar then described economic the conditions of the town of Southbridge, Mags., whose 8,000 inhabitants are, for the most part, dependent upon the large works there of the American Optical Company. Speaking of the operatives of this town, he said that there they received twice the wages and consumed twice as much as per- sons performing the same labor abroad. I do not claim, he said, any special pre-emi- nence for Southbridge. She is a fair type of an American community. Massachusetts has sixty-fovr others very much like her. What I say of her I say of all. She has her rational banks, her savings banks, her town hall, the state house of her little re- public, while her freemen meet as equals and debate in honor the things which main- tain self-government. Every man has an equal vote. Every man's vote is freely cast and every man’s vote is honestly counted. She has her churches where, in different forms, the common Father is worship=d with all the essentials of a common Chris- tian faith. She has developed a liberal pa- triotic American spirit. Now, Mr. President, I do not know what our democratic friends may think, but I think a community of this kind ts a good thing. The fathers and mothers are hon- est, temperate American citizens. They can read and write. They understand public af- fairs. They attend the churches. Their children are in school. They have created an honest industry. It is a community without a iord and without a serf. They are customers to their brethren of the south and of the west. “I cannot conceive any good reason why American statesmanship should not be di- rected toward fostering and encouraging communities Ike this. The junior Senator from the state of Texas visited that neigh- borhood two or three years ago and prom- ised to be the Moses that should lead them into the promised land of paradise flowing with milk, honey and free coal. “The Senator from Texas professes to be personally in favor of keeping his promise. But he tells us he ts between the devil and the deep sea. I suppose the devil of democ- racy and the deep sea of popular indigna- Uon. 1 do pot think he ts in any danger of drowning. I think from the wail of anger and rage which he uttered when the word ‘sugar’ was pronounced the other day in his ears that it is quite manifest who is getting him and that all the Senator will be able to make of his good intentions is = make a pavement for his future dwelling place.” Pelitics, Not Principles. Senator Hoar thea pointed out that under the pending bill the industry of that town would be severely crippled, if not over- thrown. The reduction, to a considerable extent, in the wages paid would be inevit- able. “You promised,” continued the Senator, “that as a partial equivalent for the dam- age which you would do you would give them free coal, free wool, free lumber and free sugar. I do not understand that this promise is to be kept. Senators who have been profuse in their promises for Tree.@aw material tell us that they cannot Keep their promise to put coal on the free list because they cannot pass the bill if they do. Why not? Do you pretend that the biH would not pass the House? It has | come over from that body with coal on the free list and the party majority unanimous in its support. Are you going to lose any democratic votes here? If so who are they? Both the Senators from West Virginia, a great coal producing state, Senators from Alabama, and I think both Senators from old Virginia have almost indignantly dis- clainfed this imputation. Who ie it that is constraining the somewhat ostentatisus virtue of the Senator from Texas, the Sen- ator from Arkansas and the Senator from Missouri? The true reason is not that you are afraid of losing the measure here for which you say a majority of the American people declared itself in 1802, but because you are afraid of losing the votes of West Virginia at the polls hereafter if you keep your promise. I wish to call attention to the fact tha these democratic principles are not violated, these democratic pledges not broken, the alleged command of the American people not disobeyed fer want of democratic votes in the Senate. It is for the fear of public indignation exprewed in the elections. You are ready enough to strike at the industry racy has no hopes in the future. You strike down the workimen’s wages, you put pro- tective duties on his food and fuel, and you tax his little savi and then you tell us that you are doing what you do not want to do, doing it because some nameless, shapeless, voiceless, shadowy and unknown phantom ‘stand’ ready to slay your bill if be a man? where is the Senator, if It be @ Senor, who is exerting this mighty power- secret ‘irresponsible, irresistible, before which the knees of democratic committees and democratic majorities tremble, their arms are paralyzed and their tongues are dumb. The most remarkable circumstance of the whole, of which I have spoken, is this curious substitution for the ordinary conduct and function of a legislator of the behest of some mysterious, unknown secret j political power. Somebody somewhere pulls a string, and the regular democratic major- ity is duly registered. Aristocrat and Po; In conclusion, the Senator said: “The power which is to pass this bill is a coalition between the aristocrat and the populist, between the spirit of the old slave master and the spirit which would make war on property, on frugality, on honest labor, on honest moderate earnings. The alliance is between the spirit of sectional- ism of the south, and that spirit at the north which never has known the impuse | of a true nationality, It-protects by snor- mous duties, upon which it piles enormous bounties, the industry of the south, and the ill gotten gains of the trust.

The power which is behind it may seem to secure for itself a brief victory; but the men who are wielding it know well that it is doomed.

TOPEKA Kan., June 10, 18M. Lorenzo D. Lewelling, governor of Kan- sas, who will be renominated Tuesday by the populists, was born at Salem, Henry county, Iowa, December 20, 1846. The fam- lly is of Virginia ancestry, and was among To Be Renominated Conve the pioneers of Iowa. The governor's fa- ther, William Lewelling, was a minister of the Society of Friends in a settlement near Salem, but when the son was but one year old the father died, and, his mother marry- ing again, the lad came under the control of a stepfather. When he was but nine years old his mother burned to death, and the boy was turned adrift upon the world. Then, until he was sixtenn, he worked for the neigh- boring farmers, and attended the district school during the winters. In the debating society and in the Mterary exercises con- nected with this country school he developed a remarkable oratorical talent, which fore- told his subsequent brilliant success as a platform speaker. Abandoning farm work at the age of six- teen, he went to Burlington and took em- ployment as a common laborer on the Bur- lington and Missouri railroad. From this he went to St. Louis, where he became one of a company of men organized to drive cattle for the quartermaster’s department of tired of this life and joined a bridge butid- ing corps at Chattanooga. At the close of the war he secured a discharge, and, anx- fous for a better education than the district schools of lowa had afforded him, he went first to Knox College at Galesburg, Ill., and afterward to Eastman’s Business College at Poughkeepsie. N. Y., where he spent what little money he had saved. When his money was gone he worked during vacations on the farms in the vicin- ity. Then for a time he drove a team on the Erie canal and worked as a carpenter in Toledo. Times were hard with him in the immer of 1865, ard he resolved to work is way back to Iowa. Too proud to ask id of any one, he found himself penniless er he landed in Chicago. There he se- cured employment as a section hand. and saved money enough to take him to his old home. He was then for a time employed in bridge building on the Burlington and Mis- | sour railroad near Ottumwa. But his ea: ambition for an education coming back to him, he, at the end of the year, entered Whittier College, a Quaker institution at Salem, having earned enough money during the summer to carry him through the year. He was a hard student and mastered every | study, and during his last two years at the | college he taught classes in the preparatory | department, thereby supporting himself and graduating free from debt. Thus it was that he reached manhood an educate! man. but after a severe struggle with life from his very infancy. | His fitst employment after leaving the Quaker collece wax as teacher at the state reform school fer bovs. He was soon pro- | moted to be assistant superintendent. but. in April. 1870. he resigned the nosition to | marrv Miss Augre Cook, a teacher in the Red Oak schools.

During al! these years he was closely connected with the educational and charitable institutions of the state. |, He took an active interest in political af- fairs. and the cause of the people appealed to him strongly. In his view, the republican party of Iowa was dominated by corpora- tion interests. and he championed the cause of the anti-ring and anti-railroad element. | In 1884 he was defeated for the republican | nomination for secretary of state. In 18ST he removed to Wichita and engaged in the commission business, and in 1892 he received governor and was elected by 5,432 majority. nen Fall River Mill Dividends. | From the Providence Journal, For the quarter just ended twenty-nine | Fall River corporations have paid to stock- holders dividends »mounting to $270,550, on | @ capital of $19,052,000.
