NV YORK, January 23.-Arthur P. War.

Bueno, two sons Of wealthy Brazilian mer.
chsnts, were arrested last evening by In.
spec'Or Byrneg Cn u charge OF attempting
to fight q due. Wanna lives at the Hotel
d,l Kecras No. Is living pare and Bueno
lives @ No ljJ Lexington ayenUe. Yesterday
afternoon a handsome youH: Cuban lady
called upon Inspector Byrn2s, and, upon
being ushered into tie Inspectors private
office, said that her name was Miss Pauline
Durant, and that two of her most intimate
friends intended 10 light duel in Canada
to day on her account. Miss Durant,
with the Inspector, went to Jefferson Mar
ket where Justice White issued warrants
for the arrest of Wanna and Bueno. De-
stctive SerSeants, Di!kes and Lewis were
detailed upon the case. Both would-be
duelists were arrested last night. Bueno
when taken to the Central Office said that
Wanna borrowed money from him, and on
being asked TO pay it back became
and said that he had been insulted
and demanded the only reparation
possible between gentlemen. Friends were
SUNNI cped by both parties, and in con
sultation at an up town hotel, it was dc.
CideG to settle the difficulty with swords.
To this Bueno objected, as Nianna's quick
eve snd practice with the foilS were well
known IN Rio de Janeiro. As the chal
leng,d party Bueno asserted his right to
the choice OF weapons and conditions
After another conference had been held,
he named pistols at twenty-five PAGES. The
matter was kept very quiet, bat by accl'
dent it reached the ears of Mrs Durant,
who SAYS that she felt that in justice 70
her two friends and the community, that
il possible il was her duty to prevent the
duel. Vianna's father is mem Der OF Dom

never tel the names Of my seconds" In
reply to Inspector Byrnes, he said that he
lid hot know in what part OF Canada the
duel was TO have taken place; their friends
hsd arranged all Details "and today
they will expect us on the ground"
Wanna said this pistol business was no de-
sire Ct his. "I wanted swords, then drop
u b.ood would have stopped us. But
uistols-srlppose kill my friend? Gould |
then live? No. would then put my pis-
ul 10 my own head" Both prisoners

LOBBYISTS WHO COMPLAIN
Because They are Excluded from The
Floor Of the House.

Because They are Excluded from The
Floor Of the House.
That portion Of the lobby which is ex-
cl1ded from the floor of the House is be-
ginning to complain that it is put at con-
siderable disadvantage as compared with
members of it that have access to the floor
by virtue of having, at one time, held
seat in Congress. The number OF ex-Con.
gressmeE who are here, and who are re-
puted to be employed by parties having
legislation to be attended to, is a large one
already and is constantly increasing. The
plan now proposed is to require ex-mem
bers who want TO use the door to secure
cards of admission from theSpeaker, such
cards to be forfeited if the holder is detect-
ed in lobbying measures before Congress
and admission to guilty parties thereafter
refused.

Special TO the REGISTER.

Special TO the REGISTER.
kIsGwLoD, W. Va, January 23-While
other towns in different parts Of the State
are enjoying railroad booms, We, here in
KipgKoo1, are not behind in this matter.
The revival of the proposition to build
Narrow Gauge road between this place and
Tunnelton has caused no little sensation
ard talk about the matter here and along
tine line. The opinion prevails that the
70 dwill be butt.
Men who Fought the Proposition
two years ago are very conservative now,
and those who favored the building Of the
road then still feel willing to lend any aid
they can TO push toe enterprise to q final
coBsummation. Our town is situated here
within one mile of coal helds which are
inexhsustible, and adjacent to the town
are vast supplies of timber Of an excel.
lent duality, and in adequate quantities
TO pay q company to work II, had they
means OF getting away from here, is iron
ore In close proximity to the town. II
We get railroad there is every reason to
believe that this will make one Of the most
hourishiDg towns OF the State.
There has not, as yet, been any marked
developments in political matters in this
.cop1 The Democracy arr, keeping quiet
anUf We Republicans seem to be actuated
by the same motive. While nothing has
been done openly, yet still the campaign
in this county next fall
Promises TO be q Hot
There will likely be vigorous time
among the Republican office.seekers to get
possession of the different offices within
the gift of the people. We have heard the
names of several gentlemen mentioned in
connection with the two clerkships, but
most of the political news ahpat now is
merely rumors, and, while the state for
the different county offices may be made
up at present, it will remain in the hands Of
the bosses and has not yet been given to the
public. The only man who has publicly
snpounced his candidacy is William d.
TitChnell. Mr.. T. IS a candidate for the
House of Delegates from the East Side.
He is an active Republican, somewhat OF
politician, and it is known that he is
looked upon favorably by those who have
the political prominence to dictate the &C
tior of the convention. He is Certain Of
being nominated.
