CLEBURNE, May 20.--At noon to-
day, as County.Attorney Plummer
was passing along the west side of the
square, he was assaulted by w. II.
Warner, who struck him in the face,
knocking him down, jumping on him.,
and 1t is said kicking him. Bystand-
ers rushed forward and pulled tie as
sailant of. Capt. Plummer was
taken into neigboring drug store and
medical aid called. DIR. j. ID. Osborn
was summoned aud made an examina :
lion. He found the left shoulder
badly fractured, and the mouth, eye
and ear severely bruised. The shout
der was set and 1t Is hoped
will knit together ut once. IL
may be possible that suppuratioD

Awaiting the termination or the in1u'
ries, Warner was placed In Jail.
The cause of the assault seems 10
have been the conduct Of case In the
district court Yesterday. Warner was
tried ON charge Of cattle-stealing,
and acquitted. Ii is alleged that in
prosecuting the case, Mr.. Plummer
was unnecessarily violent In denounc-
ing the accused, and abused him I'M
reasonably. Warner took the present
method OF revenge. The brutality Of
the assault is severely commented on,
and public feeling is decidedly adverse
to Warner.

sideration of the Indiana contested

Mr.. Converse spoke in support of the
claim of contestant, and represented
the grounds upon which the contestee,
Peelle, bases his claim.
Mr.. Lowery advocated the claims of
contestant. He alluded to certain Ian.
guage of j. S. Wise of Virginia when
the O'Ferrell-Paul case was
under consideration, to the effect that
the Virginia bourbon was riding into
congress on the back of one of Bar
NUNS Indiana mules. He supposed
that remark was founded upon the
legend that Chairman Barnum had
once telegraped to Indiana concerning
mules. In view of the spectacle which
the gentleman from Virginia had pre-
sented on this floor, he apprehended
If Barnum had been telegraph.
ing to Virginia for animals
OF the lower order, he would have tele.
graphed for one still more brutal in its
instinct than mule.
Mr.. Wise, who had been in one of
the cloak rooms, asked that the words
be taken down.
The speaker said the proper time for
that request had passed.
Mr.. Wise-I waive all points, and
reserve the privilege of personal expla.
nation hereafter.
Mr.. Lowery then proceeded with his
argument. Ia the course of his re.
marks he referred to Thomas A. Hen.
bricks. Perhaps some of his Republi-
can friends had heard of that gentle
man rs having been the successful can.
didate for vice-president in 1876.
Mr.. Pettibone spoke in support of the
claims of the sitting member. Pend
ing further debate the house adjourned.
