held in the rink, and fully 500 guests we're pre-

been doubled had the weather been favorable.
Promptly at o'clock the division headed BY

AN EDITORS WAR.
DisgracefuI Quarrel between Two sOutI-
ern Editors.

ern E0AkGrss
AUGUSTA, Ga, Nov. 22.-A bitter personal
quarrel is ia progress between E, W. Dawson
editor of the Charleston News ard Courier,
and Patrick Walsh, editor of the Chronicle and
Sentinel of thig city. The first named gentle-
man is member of the Democratic National
Committee from South Carolina, and the sec
ond holds a similar position from Georgia.
Dawson is an English Catholic, while Walsh
is an Irish Catholic. When the Presidential
election was over Walsh telegrsph6d coDgratu-
lations to John Kelly of Neg York, declaring
that Tarnmany made Grover Cleveland Presi-
dent Of the United States This gave rise to q
bitter personal quarrel between Walsh and
Dawson. The latter, ia the News and Cour-
ier, denounees Walsh, and eays: IAN Irish
American stands on the same footing as any
other body of American eitizNns. Their worst
ice, indeed, is the Professics Il Irishman, of
Mr.. Walsh is the type, the Irishman who
trades on the national aspirations of his race,
who makes capital out of Irish hopes and bar
gains with Irish fears; who Is an Irishman as
long as there is a dollar to be gained in Erin's
name, bat is an American VIXEN in Ireland
cause there is sacrifice to cffef or risk to ran.
If the citzeus Of Augusta are ready to submit
to his vulgar tyranny, it is not for us to stand
in the way. Probably theY will thank us in
any cas- for provoking their would-5s boss to
drop the mask and exhibit, in their naked
dsformity, the coarseness, the malice and the
selfishness of which he is made up"
To this Mr., Walsh today replied that Daw-
son is guilty OF malicious falsehood, and says:
"Mr. DawFon's own language illustrates his
httleness and contemplate snobbishness better
than we eau depict them. II he wes a brave
and chivalrc gentleman, he would not have
written about us as he has. His language
proves him to be the counterfeit merely of
gentleman"
AS the quarrel has now reached the fighting
point, it will be interesting to note what will
be done next. Mr. Walsh is bravc enough to
fight, but Mr.. Dawson lie on record as being op-
posed to duelling, having been knighted by
Pope Leo for his opposition to the Gods.

90 the ASSOCIATED Presg.l


BOSTON, Nov. ga wind storm began at
o'clock this afternoon, and at midnight is still
prevailing, with increased violence. The ay.
erage velocity attained between / and 10
O'Clock p. M. was 81 miles per hour, and the
maximum velocity up to 1124 o'clock was A
miles, which was at 10. .45 p. m. The barome-
ter has fallen nearly one inch during the past
"a hours, and is still falling The signal office
reports that the gale may attain even greater
violence during the night Rain began falling
about 10 O'Clock, and still continues. Much
damage has been done ia this city to windows,
awnings, ETC., but no accidents have thus far
occurred. The telegraph and telephone ser
vice is badly demoralized. During the greater
part Of the night the Western Union b as
had but one through wire to New York,
the one leased by the New England Associated
Press, and that worked badly. At midnight
second wire wac patched up, but it is consts Mt
ly iu trouble, and of but little service. North
ern wires are in better condition than those
to the south and west, although working very
hard. The Bankers and Merchants and Bal
timors and Ohio telegraph companies have
been entirely cut off from communication with
New York considerable portion OF the night.
A heavy rain storra accompanied by high
winds is reported throughout New York, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania and also in Missis-
sippi and in the Northwest.
CHICAGO, Nov. 23.-Rsports ars received

snap of the season. The Southwest, West,
Northwest and North are suffering from Sc
we're winds, low temperature and more or less
snow. In some places the temperature is rs-
ported several degrees below zero. The tele-
graph companies report considerable troubls in
all directions from the swapping of wires. In
this city, at II tonight, fine snow was falling.
