THE WALL STREET ROW.

Oh, what is the row in Wall Street about.

Have tried to scoop water out of the pools
With sieve instead of dipper.

ADVENTURES WITH BURGLARS.
The Thrilling Experience of P, N. Pursell-
Captain Maloney's Desperate Fight.

Captain Maloney, who lives at No. 665 North
Mississippi street, had a spirited fight with a
burglar whom he discovered in his house yester-
day morning, about o'clock The burglar was
a negro, and he fought desperately While the
Captain was struggling with the negro in the
kitchen, Michael Cain, a sonin-law, who lives in
the same house, came to his assistance, and
pounded the burglar until he dislocated his
knuckes The negro kicked vigorously while
he was being closely held, and finally succeeded
in breaking away. He was pursued for two or
three squares by Mr.. Cain and policeman, but
escaped
Early after midnight burglars were discovered
in the house of P. N. Purcell, at the corner of
Lincoln avenue and Peru street, while in the act
of administering chloroform to Mr. Purcell and
his wife The lady was awakened by drop of
the liquid falling upon her face. and she aroused
her husband They found themselves, however,
under the light of dark lantern and covered with
revolver. The burglar who confronted them
was half masked, and conducted himself in the
cool and daring manner of an experienced rob-
ber Mr. Pursell and his wife were quietly told
to make no noise and to keep their hands from
under cover. Two or three times Mr.. Pursell
reached for his revolver, which was under his
pillow, but threatening movement by the
burglar and the click of his revolver as it was
cooked made it easier for him to
remain quiet. The strange visitor con-
Quoted conversation with him, slasting ten
minutes or more. He inquired if there were
any diamonds about the house. and when told
that the only jewelry on the premises was up
stairs, he remarked that he understood his bust
ness well enough to know the advantage that
might be taken of him. He refused to take q
gold watch, for the reason he said, that he
never took anything but money and diamonds
When he started to leave he WAS told that he
could get out at the side door, but he replied
that he would make his exit as he had made his
entrance Before leaving, he informed Mr.. Pur-
sell that his trousers, which had been handed to
confederate on the outside, could be found in
the stable and as he moved away he said that if
any attempt was made to follow him he would
use his revolver. Mr. Pursell's thrilling expert
ence cost him only dime.

THE BLAINE LIBEL SUIT.
Editor Shoemaker Evidently Not DESTROYS
for Early Trial-Current Comment.

There were no developments yesterday in the
libel suit of Mr.. Blaine against John G Shoe
maker Although pretending that he desires a
speedy trial of the case, the defendant has not
yet taken any steps, so far as known, toward
filing an answer to the complaint, and it seems
quite probable that he will avail himself of the
fifteen days allowed 1t was suggested by
Senator Harrison, yesterday, that if Mr. Shoe
maker desires that there shall be no delay in
bringing the case to trial, he can waive the time
allowed him in which to appear in court to file
his answer, and at once enter plea of iustifica-
ton The taking of testimony could then begin
next week Senator Harrison says that he will
press the suit to trial. and if the
defendant does not take advantage
progress he thinks that decision can be reached
before November.
Mr.. Blaine has been informed of the nature of
the Indiana criminal libellaws, and there will be
no action in the matter of instituting criminal
prosecution until he can be heard from, for the
reason that his presence as witness at the trial
of the case would be required.
There is also probability that the Sentinel
may be prosecuted by the federal authorities un-
der the general postofice law, against the use of
the mails for the circulation of indecent publica-
lions. Section 1898 of the United States Re
vised Statutes, makes it misdemeanor for
any one to deposit or cause to be deposited in
any postoice for mailing or delivery any obscene,
lewd or licentious book, pamphlet picture, paper,
writing or print, or any other publication of an
indecent character The punishment is not less
than 800 nor more than S., 600, to which may be
added Imprisonment at hard labor for not less
than one year nor more than ten.
Mr.. Blaine's action in bringing the suit is gem
orally approved So far as known, no one has
yet been heard to justify or defend the Sentinel
in its infamous libel and the popular expression
of the people, irrespective of politics, is in APP
prevail of the course which he has taken to pun
ISL the publishers of the libel upon the honor of
his family

the attempted robbery of Paymaster
Whipple, of the army. He found a de-
serted shack in the woods near the

appearance of a regular resort. The
hlghWaymen were new hands and eyi-

up their man without firing a shot, as
the place selected was particularly fav-

portions of their reservations to the
United States. The house committee
on Indian affairs have informally agreed
to the Sioux reservation bill. The "a

its passage. The friends of the measure
say they are willing to accept the am

bill will go through the house and be-

sensation was created in the house by
the action of Horr in rising to a ques-
ton of privilege, and charging Hon. W.
English with violating the privileges of
Che house, as an ex-member, by lobbying
IN the interest of his son as contestant
in the English-Peele election case. Eng
lish was vigorously defended by Ran
dali and Cox, of New York, and no ac-
ton was taken, though a resolution will
very probably be adopted by the house
to-day before the committee on rules
to inquire whether English has violated
the privileges of the floor. AS a result

English has been sworn in as a member
