NEW YORK, March 21.-Mr. Washington
Seligman is the son of one of the we'll
known bankers of that name, and is him
self member of highly respected stock
exchange firm in New street. Baron BIeioh-
roeder is the son of the government bank
er at Berlin. The senior BIaichroeder is
also special partner in leading banking
and stock commission house on Exchange
place, and it is in connection with this bus
mess that the son is on visit to this coan-
try. At the Purim masked bail at the
Academy of Music on Thursday night last
Mr.. Seligman, who is tall and handsome
man, was promenading with lady in mask,
when he was accosted by the baron, who is
short and dark, with closely cut black hair
and good natured expression. The baron's
intimate and closest friends state that he
simply touched Mr.. Seligman upon the
| arm and said politely: II would ike to
| have few words with you "a soon as you
are at leisure" 1t is claimed by his
| friends that the baron had overheard Mr..
! Seligman make, rather openly, some dis
paraging remarks in reference to the
| abilities and courage of young gentlemen
| who hail from the Fatherland, and that
\ he desired aninterview with Mr.. Seligman
| on the subject. The baron was soon after
| ward joined by Mr.. Seligman,, who is al
| legged to have called him "a Dutch loafer,"
asserting that the baron had insulted him
and the lady with whom he had been prom
enading, by addressing him in an offensive
manner while in her company. The &C
count of what followed is thus given by the
baron's friends: The baron said little,
but promised to send a friend
to call upon Mr.. Sel1gman the
| following morning. Mr.. Seligman was at
the place of business of his firm early the
next morning. He was soon Joined there
by two friends of the baron, who pre-
| sented him with q communication from
| that gentleman. They asked the honor
of visit from g friend or two Of Mr..
| Seligmsn, in order that the necessary ar
Engagements night be made. Two friends
acting for Mt. Seligman called upon the
bsron's friends and endsavored to effect
| q peaceful settlement, but at first without
| q favorable result. In case meeting was
agreed upon, pistols were accepted. Mr..
SsliENaa accompanied By his two friends
made call upon Baron Bleichroeder
The latter was present with the two gea-
tlemen who had acted for him, and in the
presence of the four gentlemen. Mr.
Seligman withdrew his Objectionable re-
marks, and apologized to the baron
for the words Gscd. Mr.. Seligman when
seen by 9 reporter to-day declined TO talk
about the affair at all until he had had an
opportunity of consulting some of his
| friends.

ficted with great men, a strife between

GEN. ". 7. SRERMAN's testimony in the
star route trial yesterday did not give the
government counsel much to lean upon
when in speaking of several routes and
their expeditipg and opening on tbs ex-
treme Western frontiers ne said that he
believed the opening and running of these
routes was the best means of checking snd
breaking up Indian raids, and often saved
the troops the expense of line of cour.
iers. 1t was the FIRST ray of genuine viii
that has cleaned in upon the dull routine
of this court, when in answer to Bliss IL
regard to the pay of contractors on These
lines, he said that with the thickness OF
grizzlies and cinnamon bears and Apache
Indians, any man who would drive on
such a route for less than $50 day hi
should consider to be fool.

The Republican proposition to run ex-

Hayes has had luck in politics, but never

small for that. The apple-sass fellow 5
can't elect him, and they had better not
nominate him unless they want to dump

in regard to the progress of the railroad:
Another section of about two miles of
the grading on Dry creek has been com

this week. This brings the terminus in

and about seven miles from Hilgard, the
objective point this winter. All the grad
ing to gard will be finished this month.

bing at Orc Dell has been commenced
and it is stated will be completed in two

ly as the road bed is completed and there
is now little doubt of its reaching Hilgard

MR.. CAKES VERSION.

Being interviewed at Portland Mr..
Oakes, vice-president of the Northern
Pacific railroad, said he had made COM
plete examination Of the road in all its
parts, and made large reductions in the
operating force. The condition of the
line he found frst-class. Earnings in
November are at the rate of 100000 a
week. Construction work, including i'm
provements on the bridge, union depot
hotel and shops in Portland and Albina
will be continued. No special haste will
be made in the bridge and depot, but the
building of the shops will be pushed with
all possible dispatch. Mr. Cakes says
that the new mining developments on the
line Of the road are extensive. The rail
road business of Helena alone exceeds
800, 900 per month. The Ceur d Alenc
mines are likely to be as extensive and
valuable as the famous Leadville mines,
and the Kootenai country is likely to de-
velop. Mr., Cakes thought there was
little complaint as to the through rates
OF the company, but promised to meet the
merchants of Portland, and if dissatisfac-
ton exists, would correct the cause. He
illustrated the difference in local traffic
rates between the Northern Pacific and
the Central Pacific as follows: "Produc-
ers living 50 or 100 miles east or west OF
Ogden are subject to a tariff made up OF
the combined local rates of the Union aud
the Central Pacific. Under like condl.
tons on the Northern Pacific, rates are
based on continuous mileage. In other
words all parts Of the Northern Pacific
line are open on equal terms to all ship
pers - Tacoma Ners.
