Special to the Cincinnati Enquirer.l
New ORLEANS, January N.-At
half past three o'clock this afternoon,
three miles from this city, a duel was
fought between Major II. j. Hearsey,
editor of The States, an evening paper,
and Major 4. A. Burke, State treasu-
rer and managing editor of the Demo
crat. The weapons used were dueling
pistols with hair triggers, and the dis
lance ten PAGES. State Senator l.. NJ.
Mutt and Leon Jastremski, ex-mayor
Of Baton Rouge, acted as Major Hear
sey's seconds, and DR.. Joseph Scott
attended as his surgeon. Major Burke
had for his seconds Mr.. Richard
Weightman and MIR. Page NJ. Baker,
both employees of the Democrat.
The quarrel resulting in the duel
originated in an article that appeared
in the States of Friday evening, enti-
tied The City Printing" in which
Major Hearsey, quoting article q OF
the city charter-which prohibits any
city officer or employee from being in
terested in a city contract-arraigned
Mr.. James d. Houston, administrator
of improvements and one of the pro-
prietors of the Democrat, for being
one who voted the printing contract
to his own paper. Saturday morning
the Democrat denounced this state
ment to be a lie, and its author a liar,
claiming that Mr.. Houston was not
present at the council meeting when
the printing contract was awarded.
That same evening the States pub
lished an article, two columns long,
reiterating its charges and ACCOMPLISHING
an official PRONUNCIATION OF the ordi-
nance awarding the contract, in which
Houston was put down as having
voted in the affirmative.
Sunday morning an article appeared
in the Democrat %intimating that its
first article was written to remove the
quarrel from the columns of a news
paper to one of personal responsible
ity, and that Major Hearsey was en-
deavoring to shirk the responsibility.
On the same day Major Hearsey sent
Major Burke a peremptory challenge
to fight within the State of Mississippi,
on the line of the Mobile railroad. A
demand was made for delay, which
was aeceeded, and it was reported that
this morning further time was asked
but refused, and the scene of the duel
was agreed upon about noon.
The chief of police lowered about
the Mobile railroad depot during the
morning to interceptthe should
they attempt to leave town by trains,
AT about two o'clock the party left
the city in carriages, driving down the
Shell road. When they reached a
point below the Metairie cemetery the
vehicles turned out in a by path, and
halted under a clump 'of liye-oak
trees, about a quarter Of mile from the
Shell road. Several spectators had
gathered, including ex-G Governor john
MeEnesy, MI. j. D. Houston and
other friends Of Major Burke. Two
shots were fired by each party without
effect. and, the difficulty being ad.
justea, both parties got into their car
riages and were driven rapidly away

Not far away, near the northeast
corner of Fifth avenue and Fifty
seventh street, the reporter visited a
new building, at the suggestion Of
Judge Davis. The front basement
was full of water, and two steam pumps
had been necessary to keep out the
water. Judge Davis said it must
come from the sewers. AT any rate
the drainage was defective, or the
water would not be there in such
quantities.
1t was a curious sight ON Saturday
to see elegantly dressed ladies stand
ing around the broken pottery of the
last sewer pipe in hat magnificent
Fiity-sixth street, only a half a block
from Fifth avenue. They pronounced
it a shame hat the finest ofAmerican
cities should have laid down in its
most fashionable streets little sewer
pipes that would disgrace a country
village. Eight deaths are reported in
the neighbOrhood from sewer gas, two
of them in Mr.. Davis family.

Yesterday the reporter visited the
place where the pipe is being repaired,
and he found a hole in the street
fourteen feet deep, fifteen feet long
and about eight feet wide. 1t was only
a few feet from where the Fifty
sixth street sewers empties into
the the Sixth avenue one. The
eighteen-inch so.eailed "Yitri6ed'
earthen pipe was crushed into frag-
ments. How long it had been in that
condition no one knew. The other
breaks have been mended by supplyiug
new vitrifedl pipes, laid in concrete
and turning a brick Grlh over the spot
repaired. Judge Davis said he asked
for a new sewer for the street, but the
commissions had no Nancy. THE ap-
preparation is too small The entire
street between the two avenues il
filed with magnificent brown stone
dwellings. The reporter called at a
house not a hundred feet from the
broken sewer. The parlors were
l%uKuriously furnished and contain
ed pictures, p9rVings and rare
decorations. The windows were
heavily shaded and a mournful silence
pervaded the apartments, which were
u%noccupied. There was no one to
play on the splendid piano or organ
which stood against the w~ainscotting,
Up stairs in a sick chamber, the
mother watched by her child, who
moaned in a pitiful way, while outside

she had done all she could to save her
family. Her two daughters had died.
and now her child was down
with d%iphtheria. Ms husband
