MAHONE DRAWS Il PISTOL.
The RepudiattOnist I'm Danger at
the Polls.


Malone came near being wiped out
physically as well as politically Tues
day. He drove up to the polls in the
Fourth ward OF Petersburg, Va, just be-
fore negro moved up with Democratic
ticket in his hand. A little alteration
ensued between Democrats and Read
justers, with view of influencing the
negro's vots. Then the Senator pushed
his way into the crowd, crying out ex-
citedly: al have come here to see fair
play" ..
''You are pretty one Mr.. Mahone, to
talk about free ballot and iair
count" said William Long, who stood
near. "You have been cheating ever
since you have been in politics"
At this point Mahone's son, who
accompanied his father, rushed forward
with stick in one hand aud a pistol in
the other. "The first man who insults
my father | mean to kill on the spot |"
he threatened. &C. damn 1t | have a
pistol too" put in the Senator. Then
the crowd began to close in on the S-ns
tor. Somebody Knocked the pist j out Of
young Mshone's hand, and he was
pushed about and showed out OF the way.
Every body thought that the Senator's
hour was come. There were many men
present who had the strongest hatred for
him, hut there were some cool Democ ats
present who interposed TO prevent the
difficulty which could not otherwise have
been avoided.
The Democrats listened attentively and
gradually Withdrew from the Senator's
presence. The pistol which young Nc
hone tlonrished was then picked up and
carried to the judges OF election by q
Democrat. He made the charge that it
been taken from tue young man and
asked that the judges order his arrest,
but nothing was done in the matter.

A Philadelphia letter in Sundays
Star says that those in a position to
know state that in short time work on
ths new Baltimore & Philadelphia rail-
road extension will be indefinitely post
pvped and the scheme abandoned. 1t Is
slso rumored that the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company has made permanent
contract with the Baltimore & Ohio, in
which satisfactory freight aud passenger
rates are guaranteed to the latter
company. A railroad magnate, rep
ressnting the Gowen-V anderbilt-G Gar
re,t system, says that the rumors
as to the new line not being
finished are foolish. Mr., Garrett would
not stop work on the line II he could, and
could not II he would. A rumor was
current in this city last week that John
W. Garrett, president Of the B. & o. COM
psny, ard his son Robert Garrett had
some Misunderstanding. As far as could
be learned it was given out here that the
elder Mr.. Garrett, upon his return from
Europe, made some objection to certain
transactions the son had had with the
Psnnsylvanis Railroad Company, and a
disagreement resulted. Also, that the
younger Mr.. Garrett had lent his ear to
the Pennsylvania railroad people and
that an arrangement had been made by
which the proposed new extension line
would be abandoned.

Dispute About IA Pail Of swirl
Leads to Deu1b

Alexander Webb, eol1red, died at his
home In Marshalltou Monday night from
The efieots OF wound on the head in D..
hieted on the night Of tn. 31,t Of October
by John Allen, also colored, during u dis.
pnte between the two men.
On the evening OF the fight, W, bb WA
sitting In his yard and, with loaded gun,
was jealously guarding some cabbage
growing in the garden against a
threatened onslaught from party of
youthful hallowe'en's. After watching
some time, he saw Allen coming from a
neigh boring yard with a pail OF swili
Webb challenged Allen to stop and, at
the muzzle of his gun, ordered him to set
the vessel down.
A dispute then ensued as to which OF
the two had the right to gather the re-
fuse from that particular house. Both
claimed it and the dispute grew very
warm.
Webb eventually grew very angry,
and, cooking his gun, pointed it in
Aliens face and pulled the trigger. The
weapon luckily missed fire. Webb tried
as ain to get it to 60 off, but failed.
Allen, who in the meantime had been
scar thing for something with which to de
fend himself, picked up heavy stone
and threw it with great iOroe at HIS
assailant, The missile hit Webb, just
back of the ear, knocking him aenseless,
and fracturius his skull. He was found
lying, in his yard, just as he fell, still
unconscious, about midnight. DR..
Chandler was summoned and rendered
aid, but the man died from his wound
Monday eve niDg.
The deceased has been in the employ
Of j. R Bringhurst at Marshallton mills
for some years and Is said to have been
a sober and industrious peaceable negro.
He was about 40 years OF age and leaves
a wife.
John Allen, after inhioting the wound,
came to this city aud the next day went
to the Chief of Police and offered to sur
render himself, at the same time telling
what he had done. The police refuse to
take him into custody, telling him to re-
turn home and wait to see ii the wounds
terminated fatal.
From Every Evening of yesterday.
Coroner Smith went to Marshallton
this morning in company with Drs. 0sle
and Springer and held an inquest upon
the death of Alexander Webb, colored,
John ALIENS victim.
The facts OF the case were fully stated
in yesterdays EVERY EVENING and to-
days first edition. Witnesses testified
that W hen Webb assaulted Allen he was
armed with a shot gun and pistol that
no snapped the gun in Aliens face and
the latter took it from him. Webb then
drew his pistol saying, II have some
more for YOU" when Allen struck the
fatal blow, knocking hts opponent down.
Webb arose to sitting position
and exclaimed "I'll shoot you when l
get up" Allen, however, did not wait
for him to arise, and the wounded man,
seeing that his would be victim had
gone, orawled into the house. The jury's
verdict was that alexander Webb came
to his death from stone in the hands of
john Allen, who acted in self-defense."
Drs. 0gle and Springer held q post
mortem examination. Allen is still at
his home and will probably not be ar
rested.

following account OF the whale recently
stranded on sand bar II miles from that
place When first approached he would
spout great quantities of water 80 or 40
feet and lash his tail furiously from side
TO side, spreading terror among his
assailants. With the aid of long poles
sharpened at the end they finally man
aged to Kill him. AS he lay upon the
bar at low tide he presented formidable
spectacle, measuring more than 65 feet In
length, rs feet around the body, and
supposed to weigh more than 20 tons.
The flaps OF his tail were more than 20
tee from tip to tip. 1t is estimated that
700 people went down to the bar last
Sunday to see the whale. He belonged
to the sperm species and might have
been converted into valuable oil at some
OF the fish factories, il he could have
been gotten off the bar with ease. The
contents of his oapacious stomach are
said to have been varied, including
almost everything from gold watch to a
ouspidore.
