PISTOLS IN THE SENATE.
Philadelphia Press Washington Letter

Phtiadelphta Press W hshington Letter.
Calling upon an ex.Der ocratic
member of Congress from Louisi-
ana, a few days ago, he showed me
the handsemest pair of dueling pis-
tolls l have ever seen. They were
made by Purdy, of London. The
barrels are of the finest Damascus,
the locks of the choicest tempered
steel and the handles of polished
rosewood. The pistols were made
30 that they could be loaded either
from shs muzale or the breeCh, ac-
eording to the stipulaLlons of the
sombatants. The triggers are SO
adjusted that the slightest touch
Will tire the weapon. The owner of
these pistols is an expert shot, and
some idea of the accuracy of the
arms can be formed when il is stated
that he has shot bi ds on the wing
with them at distance of 100 Yards.
These pistols have been in request
on more than one occasion during
the past ten years. The last time
they were applied for was prior to
the scene which occurred in the Sem
ate between Senators Conkllnp and
Lamar. The events of the few
hours which preceded the memora.
BILE interchange of fighting words be.
tween those gentlemen had con-
yinced several Southern senators
that serious trouble was brewing
Some of them looked for an alterca.
ton on the floor, and it was deter.
mined to make that expected alter
cation bloody one, if need be. Th,
two pistols were taken from the res
idence of their owner to the Senat
chamber, and were loaded in one O
the committee rooms. When Mr.
Conkling delivered his scorchine
criticism of Lamar those pistol,
were in the pockets of men upon
the floor. And after the contro-
versy had ended without the inter
change of blows the pistols were
retained by friends of Mr.. Lamar
possibly without his knowledge. il
anticipation of hostile meeting be
tween the two senators. The owner
OF the pistols says he has loan o,
them once or twice to persons desl
rous Of adjusting difficulties, but il
each case peaceful solution of tn,
trouble has been reached before ex
changing shots.

The unfinished business, the Dawes res
slulisn for the election Of officers. A
motion to gs into executive session was
made, but Withdrawn at the request Of
Mr.. Dawes, who said sit had not been
expected" The real reason for iss with
drawal was in the fast that, If persisted

would be shown to be present. Messrs.

Dawes resolution from the Democratic,
