occurred here between John NJ. Rarex, edi-
tor of the Northpest, and II. c. Leonard, of
the Bowie Free Press. For some weeks
past they had been indulging in personalities
through their papers. Rarex came to town

asked him If be proposed to apologize fol-
what he had said. Rarex said he did not.
Other words followed. Leonard drew

simultaneously, and each missed his man.
Officers interiered and took the pistols from
them. They waived examination and gave
bond in the sum of two hundred and fifty
dollars.

cluded his by wishing Mr.. Vanderbilt
pleasant journey and safe return, and that
he also placed the cable service at his
disposal. Regarding Mr.. Vsnderbilt's
reply it was insisted that he also said that
his brokers had their orders before he

fcient He deposited the money in his own
bank, but did not show that the bank was SOL

The Court also thought Mr.. Harrison's excuse
insufficient and said the inventory should be
closely examined before the report could be
passed upon.
Mr.. Miller said the law was clear; that If Mr.
Harrison had embezzled the funds he could
be punished for his crime in another court, and
said that he should ask the court to direct the
receiver TO draw his checks Immediately upon
the First National Bank, of this city, and the
First National Bank, Of Shelbyville, for the
