ing Pistols and Knives.
W ashington Special.
The talk of possible duel between Exon
gresham Whitthorne and Governor Porter leads
to some interesting gossip about the shooting
habits of members of Congress and others i'm
high official positions 1t is common belief that
the habit of carrying pistols and dirks, which
characterized the average Southern congressman
of twenty-five years ago, has disappeared. But
this does not seem to be the case in all partcu-
lars.
''You will be surprised" said one OF the at
tendants at the cloak-rooms on the Democratic
side Of the House, Ito see what large numbers
of congressman on the Democratic side of the
House still carry pistols and dirks / know
something about it-more, in fact, than almost
anybody else You see, ! worked in the cloak
rooms for q long time and helping members on
and off with their coats, brushing their clothes
and seeing them when they take off their coats
to be shaved, know all about their
habits in this direction. Now, there is General
Whitthorne, who has been so prominent in this
Porter affair. You wouldn't think him the sort
of a man to carry pistol, would youi Hc is
quiet sort of old fellow--goes about like an old
farmer. You wouldn't think him shooting
man at ALL But he is tell you. He always
carries pistol, anu, nave neaIu, HAS uScu ~
several times in his life, too Dc you remember
General Hooker, who was in the Forty seventh
Congress- one armed man. from Mississippi
Well, you wouldn't think of him as q man who
went armed all the time but he did. He always
carried twelve-inch dirk tell you he meant
business and fellow had to step around lively
when he waited ON him. Then there is E. John
Ellis, of Louisiana. You know what nice
smooth speech he could make Well, he always
had pistol in his pocket when he was making
them. There are lots of Southern fellows who
carry dirks-big, savage ones. too l suppose,
of tho hundred and fifty or sixty fellows l used
to wait on there were at least seventy five or
eighty who carried pistols or drks or something
of this sort. There's Phil Thompson, he al
ways carries his pistol, and will use it, too, as
quick as any man you ever saw. Indeed, tho,
Southern congressman who doesn't carry one is

Washington Special.
Mr.. Cleveland, naturally invasive, has not
shown that softness of manner which comes
from long practice in public affairs, or from keen
appreciation or care for the motives and feeling
of men. He is abruptly direct. He employs the
explosive rather than the equally effective,
though quieter methods Recent events have
satisfied the long common report that no Cabinet
officer feels his way SO sure, or his tenure Of
office 80 unquestionable, that he has cared to as
sert himself by either speech or act or disport
himself otherwise than as man expecting to
render abject obedience to the power above The
valorous Bayard has given up his weekly bull
letins to the New York press. He has. without
doubt, been made to feel that in posing
as an official of consequence he has not the ap-
prevail of the man who made him what he

Bayard has been eclipsed and the fiery Lamar
subdued9 Does any body believe that the hui
initiating reduction of Cabinet positions is to the
liking of such talented men as the Delaware
statesman and the morbidly organized Missis-
siDpian9 No, indeed; but the bridges are down
behind them, and retreat is impossible. The
game is no longer theirs. The naughty senators
have fallen into the pit that was dug for them,
and their independence and power gone AS
leaders in the Senate they would have been pow
erful to help or defeat the President; but as
members of his administration they have no
identity They have met with irreparable loss,
with no means Of helping their sections. Their
ambitions have been stifed, and they have been
obscured by master who will brook no division
of honors. 1t is safe to say that if the senate
rial trio-Bayard, Lamar and Garland-coud 60
back to the Senate, they would go with sud-
denness that would demonstrate their dislike to
playing private soldiers under the command of
an exacting captain.

The body of John A. Benson, late Sur

ing on the floor close TO Benson was the
body Of al man named Brown. with a
number of bullet holes pierced through
him. Brown is said to have recently ar
rived here from Wyoming. The case is
surrounded with mystery aud many cen
lectures as to the tragedy are aAoat The
most tenable theory is that Benson and
Brown had some difficulty, which re
suited in the death of both men; however
the detectives say this is impossible be-
cause there is no appearance Of struggle
between the two men, and had they
killed one another their wea pous would
have been found by their side as the
wounds received by each caused almost
instant death. There is much excite
ment over the affair. Benson is we'll
