REPORTERS or THE TEtcK.
The representatives here Of several New

look out for the parties. They kept an eye
on Mr.. LOubaf- SAW him come down from
his room Yesterday morning, and saw him
20 70 ards the breakfasi-room. saw hin
talking with the clerk. and they think they
heard him say 20 that gentleman that he did
not want 70 give up his room; that he
wanted il kept for him; that be would pro-
habiy return here in q few dgys. and that i
be never returned bis friend would settle

LOuhat and Bruguiere called for . caI-
riare 10 70 down 70 the Aleghany depot.
but none was "a; hand: time was precious.
and the clerk sent them Of in m omnibus.

Richmond had received . telegram from
New York asking for news Of the L0ubat-
TUnbul duel
They wanted 70 know who was killed.
who was wounded. and where II took
place. AL that excitement came from the
sun article printed above.
Next % a firsi-cia-s murder mystery
duel j. the best thing for the newspaper
business. People Ike 10 read about anv
duel: more especially do they Ike 70 read
about a duel wherein the figure Of beauti-
ful woman appears n the thread Of The
storT unwinds.
20 the New York newspapers wanted 70
know, you know, and their " own CORE

TIE BLOODY BATTLE-GROUND.
The correspondents had no idea when
they started away where they were going
20 stop. but they thought they would stop
when Loubai stopped. and THAT was enough
for them 70 know. The consequence was
that il was hours and hours before il was
known here exactly where tie party had
stopped. for il was believed that the Cedar
Point and Irwin inquiry was % throw IN
