RUSSIAN NOTABLES CROWD TO SEE BITTER SCORE SETTLED. Military Authorities Sanction Duel, the Out. come of Clash of Stoessei’s Men at Port Arthur, and Cowardice Charges That Followed, ST. PETERSBURG, March 18.—Lieut.-Gen. Fock and Lieut.-Gen. Smirnoff, officers until recently high in the Czar's favor, to-day fought | well as remarkable meetings on the field of honor. Smirnoff fell probably fatally wounded, and Fock tetired without a for another meeting, hi xt combatant being Gen, Gor- batotisky, with whom Fock has a bitter score to settle. Women of title, military officers of the highest rank and other per- sons prominent in the official and social life of St. Petersburg sat to-day as spectators in the riding school of the Chevalier Guard Regiment and watched with intense interest, as Gens. Fock and Smirnoff, who had won fame on the battlefield and helped make history at the siege of Port Arthur, faced each other at twenty paces in a pistol fight which it was agreed to be to the death. LIKE A SCENE IN ANCIENT ROM It was all like a scene in the arena in ancient Rome, the principals gle, while tier upon tier in the riding school amphitheatre was crowded, the aristocra ind notables of Russia arrayed for a life-and-death stru all eager for the fight and the outcome. The duel concerned not only the two principals and their friends, but the entire army; in fact, it might be said all of Russia, for the meet- r scores dating from the siege and fall of Port Arthur and on which the army has been divided. So it was that all details and preliminaries had been arranged with the ing was to wipe out the bit care devoted to a court ball, All present were there by invitation and there were no late arrivals so decp was the interest in the meeting. The riding school was placed at the disposition of the combatants by the Commander of the Chevalier Guard Regiment, and the duel occurred with the full knowledge and approbation of the military authorities. Shortly before ten o'eloek Generals Fock and Smirnoff appeared at the riding school, Without saluting they took their places and assigned their seconds. For Gen. Smirnoff the seconds were his brother-in-law, Vladimir M. Purishkevich, a member of the Duma, and Capt. Schultz, of the navy, while for Gen. Fock Capt. Sido, Adjutant to Gen, Stoessel, and Lieut Podgursky, one of the Port Arthur heroes, officiated in this capacity. BULLET STRIKES SMIR The distance between the two combatants was twenty paces, and the duelists were instructed to open fire at the word of command and continue until one or the other was hit. The word “fire” was given each time by Gen. Kireleff, the Russian au thority on duelling he second exchange Gen. Fock’s coat was per- forated the third exchange Gen, Smirnoff accidentally fired prema: turely, but Fock magnanimou leclined to shoot at a defenseless oppo were then exchanged, irnoft groaned and sank forward with a wound ight hip, He was carried in a litter to the ul, Where doctors were waiting to minister to the wounded nent, and the fourth and fin At Fock's fourth shot Sr In the abdomen above the Military Hos one in the duel.
