A Fight with an Eagle.
Monroe, Ga, Advertiser. |

On Thursday morning John ABB
ernethy brought monster eagle
into town which be had killed on
bis place the day previous. He
had gone to q field to work carry
ing q little son two.and-a.half
years old with him. 1t happened
that he had his shotgun In his
hands, thinking that he would
need 1t to kill game. Suddenly he
heard o sound in the air, which he
decribes as equal to the roaring of
the wind, and saw q large shadow
on the ground. Looking up he
saw q large bird swooping down
upon his son. AS quick as possible
he raised his gun and fired, and
was fortunate enough to bring the
eagle to the ground.
He picked him up and started
homeward, carrying the bird on
his shoulder. Suddenly the eagle
buried his talons In his right arm
and seized his left with his beak.
Mr.. Alternately called for help, and
some neighbors, four in number,
came to his assistance. 1t required
their united efforts to release the
bird from his firm hold. When
released he found that his arm was
badly lacerated, the flesh being
torn from the bone In several plsc-
es. The beak was sunk to the
bone In the right hand. The eagle
measured 7 feet 4 inches from tin
to tip, and weighed seventeen and
one.half pounds. He was never
eeen In the neighborhood before,
and 1t IL probable he strayed from
the coast. Mr.. Alternately says
his strength was prodigious. He
would have readily carried off the
little boy had 1t not been that his
father was fortunately armed with
y gun.

KvlIsor Grain speculation.

BUFFALO, n. Y, NOV. 14.-The mem
bers of the Senate Committee appointed
to investigate the system Of grain deal
ing in futures, with reference to its et-
feet upon commerce, held their first
meeting in this city to-day.
Alonzo Richmond, eX-president OF
the Buffalo Board of Trade, In his e1-
animation before the committee, spoke
strongly against the system, citing in
stances of vessel coming light from
Chicago, thereby Occasioning great loss
for the reason that their owners could
not wait tho pleasure of grain specula-
tors. He claimed that the system dis
turbed the business Of the entire CON-
mercial world.
Supply and demand alone, Mr.. Rich
mond maintained, should govern pri-
cos, and he strongly urged that legisla-
ton be brought to bear to break up the
system. He considered" bucket shops
and "option- houses" of all grades as on
par with policy. shops. Charles G,
BrundaGe, a prominent grain dealer,
corroborated all of Mr.. Richmond s
statements, and declared himself oD
posed to the entire system. Othel
gentlemen will be heard tomorrow or
the subject.
