A FIGHT IN COURT.
Personalities Ending In Blows---A Chai-
Ienge But No Duel.


EUREKA (Nev.), March This communi-
ty has been kept in q state Of excitement
since Monday over adifiiculty between Judge
+. w. Cole, lately removed from here to San
Francisco, and NJ. d. Foley, prominent
citizen of Eureka. Last Friday Judge Cole
obtained verdict in the District Court for
$500, which he alleged was due him by
the Richmond Mining Company as an UNI
paid balance contingent upon the success OF
his client in its suit with the Albion COM
pany. Foley, it appeared in the trial, had
been specially authorized by Manager Pro-
bert, of the Richmond company, to make
terms with Judge Cole for his services in the
case. The contract was verbal. Inthe trial
there was a conflict of testimony between
these two gentlemen; personalities were in
dulged in, and some caustic reflections were
made upon the characters of Cole and Fol-
ey. Judge Cole acted as his own attorney
and Tom Wren appeared for the Richmond
company. Very bad feeling was engendered
and both sides felt mad. Monday morning
after the session of the Court, Foley charged
Cole with having lied in attributing to him
(Foley) certain disparaging remarks about
Presiding Judge Rivers. Cole denied the
charge, when Foley struck him several times
in the face. This occurred in the Court
room. The parties were then separated and
Judge Cole went and secured weapon, but
personal friends and law officers prevented
further collision.
Yesterday it was reported that Cole had
sent challenge to Foley to fight duel out
side of town. The day passed, however,
without further incident, though everybody
was OH tiptoe of expectation that something
would happen. To-day the following chal-
lenge was sent to Foley signed by F. w.
Cole:
NJ. d. FoLEY-Sir: was the day before
yesterday struck by you. hereby denounce
you as a coward aud liar. My friend, NJ.
B. Bartlett, will arrange matters for me.
F. w. COLE.
In the evening paper to-day appears the
following card in reply: 'After the chal.
leage was delivered, Wren advised Foley
that to fight a duel or to accept challenge
to fight duel would disqualify him from
either voting or holding any place of trust
In this State; that it was also felony under
the laws of Nevada; and that the challenge
was not ceuched in language that would adj
NIT of Foley accepting it even if so inclined
The latter said that he had understood thai
Cole had armed himself and was looking
for him upon the day and evening upor
which he had slapped his face, that as soor
as he had learned this fact he had placed
himself in position upon the street so tina
Cole could not fail to see him and seek thu
redress that he had repeatedly asserted HI
desired, that for the future he shall neither
seek nor avoid Cole, and he will pursue hi
usual avocation in and about Eureka, tina
in doing so any one desiring to meet hin
will have abundant opportunity, that he be
lieves that TO accept a challenge from Cole
would simply end in farce and make boil
the laughing stock of the State, and he ha
no desire to make himself ridiculous. Thu
the matter rests"

Guiteau on Gran ks.

WASHINGTON, March Stalking of Mac
Lean, who shot at Queen Victoria, Guiteau
said to-day that it was time such cranks
should be punished. He said his act was
different from MacLean's, as it was not
claimed for MacLean that he was impelled
by an uncomfortable influence. During the
week Guiteau has taken in from the sale of
autographs over $500. He says he will use
the money to secure lawyers, as he is tired
of Scoville and Reed.

The Eureka Tragedy.

EUREKA, March 3.--The talk of the town
has been the shooting Of his wife by q. j.
Lansing, one Of the observation-disclosures here.
Two doctors, after brief examination of
the woman's body, reported that death had
resulted from pistol shot. At an examine
ton to-day 1t was found that death was
caused by blunt instrument, evidently .
heavy piece Of kitchen chair which was found
In the room covered with blood. Nothing
was elected at the inquest to throw any
light on the tragedy. Lansing has been on
. spree about ten days and 1t Is supposed that
he struck the fatal blow in fiji of delirium.
He realized his terrible position in prison to-
day, but declined TO speak about the affair.

waaner's Successor.

NEW YORK, March IA special election
to fill the vacancy caused by Wagner's death
occurred to-day and unexpectedly resulted
Ia the choice OF Baucns, Democrat, who beat
Stanford BY 1000 majority. The district en-
braces four counties, three Of which are usu-
ally Republican, one always heavily 50, and
one usually Democratic. Oddly enough ell
the Republican counties to-day went Demo-
cratic and the Democratic county went Re-
publican. There was also another element
In the contest. Saratoga, the most populous
and heaviest Republican county, has been
because the Senator has been 30
long selected from other pavts Of the district.
To-day therefore her usually splendid Re-
publican majority Of 2,50o = changed to
majority o. $50, and Ar. Stan
ord y defeated.

THE CANADIAN PACIFIC.
Heavy Contracts Awarded to Andrew On
derdonk.
S. r. Chronicle. March ID.

Andrew Onderdonk, of San Francisco, con-
tractor, has been recently selected by the
Canadian Government TO construct that por-
ton Of the Canadian Pacific railway between
the Pacific coast and Yale (the beginning of
his present contracts made with the Govern
ment two years ago). Thirteen propositions
were received by the Government for this
new work on February LIST from large con-
tracing firms from all parts Of the world,
and although Mr.. Onderdonk's bid was not
the lowest, it was selected as the most salts
factory. The price to be paid by the Gov
eminent when completed is $2,500,000, the
Government furnishing the rails. The dis
lance is about eighty miles. This, together
with the Sl0,0Oo,O00 contract formerly
awarded to the same contractor, makes about
two hundred and twenty miles under con-
tract on the Pacific coast. Mr.. Onderdonk
has also been awarded the contract for the
construction Of an iron bridge TO cross Fraser
river fifty miles above Yale, the Government
having neglected to include 1t In the original
contract. The contract price for the bridge
Is $3.50, 900. Six designs for the bridge were
received, and the San Francisco contractors
design Was adopted.

Card from Rosecrans.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-General Rose
Grams furnishes for publication the following
card:
MIR. Blaine, In his funeral Grafton before
the two Houses, said: "When General Gar

GUS troubles already well developed and Sc
riously affecting the value and efficiency of
the Army Of the Cumberland Twas the
Commanding General of that army. Gener-
al Garfield was my chief of staff. Had this
been the fact certainly would have known
IL. General Garfield was bound to tell me
Of 1t. Justice to the truth Of history and to
the Army Of the Cumberland requires that
should declare that never heard of such
state of things until the statement came
from the lips Of the orator. The distin-
guished gentleman has been wholly misin-
formed, and the statement of the above quo
tation has no foundation in fact. On the
contrary, II was the general sentiment and
const ant boast of the officers and men of that
army that 1t was singularly united and free
from discussions, and therefore no ones ge-
MUS was required to heal these discussions.
appeal to them to bear witness Of this fact.
4 few sentences further on Mr.. Blaine says:
"His military duties closed on the memora-
BILE field of Chickamsuga--a field which
however disastrous to the Union arms, gave
TO him the occasion Of winning imper-
lshable laurels." He might with Justice
have added: sand to us the city of the South

WASHINGTON, March 2.--The counsel for
ex-senator Christiancy, in his divorce case,
filed dispositions Of a large number of per-
sons In Lansing, Michigan, and New York
City. The dispositions from Lansing con-
tain the testimony of prominent citizens As
to the ex-Senator's habits, and his treatment
Of his wife in the summer Of 1877. All agree
he was not under influence Of intoxicating
Ing liquor during that time. He was sober
in his habits, and kind and consideration his
treatment Of his wife and her mother. The
dispositions from New York City are oil in
contradiction Of statements made by Mrs.
Christiancy's Witnesses, Charles Goodman
and Mary Chamberlayne.
