the Richmond Wing, and Beirne, OF The
State, yesterday left town, presumably to
fight q duel. EIam's paper on Wednesday
had an editorial in reply to one in the
State on Tuesday, commenting in strong
language on the Wing as the organ Of Boss
Malone, and concluding as follows: "ln
making this comment upon Boss Malone,
we wish to be distinctly understood by all
of his corrupt henchmen that what we
say, and have said, OF him we mean and
have meant Of them, personally, indi-
vidually, collectively, or in any sense they
feel it.. A more vicious, corrupt gang
never followed an adventurer than that
which hangs around the party boss" The
Wing takes this extract from the States
article, replying to each charge, and con-
cludes: "Now, we might be content by
simply giving the lie to all this, as we do
generally for the Readjusters' party,
especially in so far as the charges are
meant to apply to the Wing, or anybody
connected with the Wing in a responsible
way, but we wish further to say that the
whole article, from which we make these
extracts, is q tissue Of general denuncia-
ton, which would humiliate il it we're
not accompanied by lofty p~retensions Of
superiority in manners, morals and letters
that are ~laughable and ridiculous, coming
from q source so pitiable in all moral and
intellectual resources. Consequently. I'M
intimidated and not utterly crushed, we
laugh at the States vituperation and
vaporing, and beg to remark that not only
does the State lie, but that its editor and
owner lies" Up to 80 P. M. nothing has
been heard from the duelling party. There
is much excitement over the affair, and
the anxiety to learn the result is undated.
1t is believed that no meeting ook place
this morning, but will this afternoon or
early tomorrow.
The uJlI investigation.
WASHINGTON, June 22.-In the Hill in
vestigation yesterday, Frank Taylor, Sec
rotary of the firm of Manley, Cooper &
Co., of Philadelphia, took the stand and
testified as to the manner in which Hill
let contracts for fire-proof shutters for the
Cincinnati Postofice, relating how his
company. who we're the lowest bidders,
were put aside by Hill, and how a repre-
sentative Of a successful company offered
him $4,000 to withdraw his bid for the
shutters, which proposition he refused.
He also related how he demanded a test,
and was refused by Hill, Supervising
Architect. Hill took the stand, and when
asked whether he knew of the attempted
bribery Of Taylor by Dana, the successful
competitor, he said he did; that be spoke
to Dana about it at the time, but the latter
denied the charge III writing. He did not
take any stock in the bribery charge at the
time, and made no investigation in the
matter himself. To many of the questions
Hill answered, Il don't remember" Cole
man, attorney for Murch and the other
compliments, claimed that since Hill
came into office the United States Com
pany, which Dana represented, controlled
the contracts for shutters for public build
ings, and it had been impossible for any
other company to compete. He called
attention to the fact that Manly. Cooper 4
Co.'s bid was Sal 500 less than any other,
yet Hill gave the contract to the United
States Co., which had offered Manly,
Cooper d Co. $4,000 to withdraw their
bid. Adjourned.
