PECULIAR ACCIDENT IN NATIONAL

BISMARCK, Oak, Nov GA report O
an accident comes from National park. a
driver and tourist were engulfed in a
geyser while drying over the formations
last week. 1t appears that the tourist
whose name is given as James Nc
Donald, of London, England, in
sisted on going close to the Excel
sor a geyser which has been erupting
very irregular of late He was determined
upon looking into the crater of the I'M
mense geyser, and the driver who was also
acting as guide. followed him to the
brink to guard against accident. Just as
the unsuspecting Englishman leaned over
the verge of the crater, the geyser erupted
with terrific force, hurting them back into
the air many feet.
Excelsior geyser is over 800 feet wide at
the crater and throws out the greatest
volume of water of any geyser III
the park. Fortunately for the men
they were caught in the strong
est current of the upshooting
stream or they would have been swallowed
in the unknown depths of boiling water.
As it was, they Were severely scalded and
there are grave doubts of their recovery.
This is the second accident of this char
acter in the park, and while there Is not
the slightest danger to those who are sat
isted with seeing and not investigating, it
is understood that congress will be asked
TO appropriate money for the building of
protective walls about the curioslties.
Since the attempt of Gen. Howard's son To
commit suici1e by jumping over the Vel
lowstOne falls which are 365 feet high, the
question OF erecting ratings or protective
walls about the different points of interest
has heen discussed quite generally.

THAT NEW YORK DUEL.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27.-Further develop
ments of sensational nature but Of
questionable authority in the story of the
alleged duel in Central park. based on the
finding of blood besmeared handkerchiefs
and a revolver, were brought to light to-
night. A note was sent TO the park police
last Thursday night stating that
two club men were going to
fight duel oyer prominent
lady in the park. The following morning
the articles mentioned were found in a Sc
questered place. Subsequently blood
marks were found on the sward and a
cork also similarly stained were found.
1t was thought these things were placed
there by a practicle joker. A story was
given out tonight by Captain Reilly of the
Thirtieth precinct going TO show there was
a duel but without giving the names of
those concerned. A hackman, whose name
is withheld, states on that night he drove
two men, one OF whom was called doctor,
and that they We're met by another cab.
The cabmen Were sent Oft to return at a
certain time When he returned the two
men again entered his carriage and he sub
sequently found blood marks on the seat.
Another story is that of the district tele-
graph manager at Thirtieth and Broad
way. He states that woman greatly eX-
cited entered his Office that night and
asked for two messengers. She sent q
note of warning of the duel to Captain
Reilly, and also to Captain Beatty, of Park
police.

THE SUPREME COURT.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-The supreme
court of the United States rendered an
opinion in case No. 67, Henry Il. Denny,
plaintiff in error, VS.. Charles c. Bennett,
assignee of A. B. Van Norman s. Bro, in
error to the supreme court of Minnesota.
The principal point raised in the case is
that OF action of the state legislature, pro-
viding that whenever the property of a
debtor is seized by execution against him
he may make an assignment OF all his
property not exempt by law for the equal
benefit of all his creditors, who shall file
release of their debts and claims, and that
his property shall be equitably distributed
among such creditors is repugnant to the
constitution of the United States, SO far as
it effects the citizens of other states than
Minnesota. 1t was claimed by counsel for
plaintiff in error that this statute is invalid
because it impaired the obligation of con-
tracts, and also that it could have no extra
territorial operation and could not there
fore be binding to creditors liv
ing in Il different state from
that of the debtor. The supreme
court, in an opinion by Justice Miller,
holds that the statute is not repugnant to
the constitution. In its opinion, the court
says that the statute could not, of course,
apply to contracts in existence before it
was enacted, but the statute must be con-
structed to be part of all contracts after
it was enacted, and therefore it cannot be
called an impairment of the contracts.
The judgment of the supreme court of
Minnesota holding the statute to be valid,
was therefore affirmed. Justice Harlan
concur in the decision of the court in this

LIE STRIKE UNCHANGED

INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 21-No material
change has developed in the switchmen' S
strike today. Business has nearly resumed
its old time activity with the railroad as
the new men become familiar with their
work. None OF the strikers have thus far
offered to resume work and fully two
thirds of their places have already been
filled and applications for work continue
to be made. The strikers seemto be get
ting farther away each day from reallza-
ton of their object and unless the rail-
roads receive set back from some uneX-
pected quarter it looks as though the
strikers would have to seek employment
elsewhere. The police are still kept on
duty at principal yards and crossings,
in walking about. A commit
tee from the strikers met for
conference last night and counseled today
with individual engineers, firemen and
brakemen, but it can not be learned that
they secured anything more than SYM
pathy. No promise of assistance in way
OF taking up their cause was held ont by
either the engineers or tiremen. Chief
Wilkeson, of the Brakeman's association,
came TO the city yesterday. Chief Sargent
of the Brotherhood OF Firemen, passed
through going east. 1t was said he was
going TO confer with Chief Arthur about
the troubles here, but no reliable authority
for the statement was given.
The Central Labor union has decided to
investigate the justice OF the switchmen's
position and committee of three, ap-
pointed last night, viii investigate it.

and adopting resolutions expressing SYM
pathy with the strikers and asking work

THE KNIGHTS ADJOURN.
Many Items of Minor Importance Discussed
at the Last Session.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. N-The gen
eral assembly knights of Labor completed
it's work and took a final adjournment at
l O'Clock this afternoon.
A great deal of business, much of it of
minor importance, was hurried through
the closing session. The committee on
law completed its report by recommending
that the temperance plank in the constitu-
ton remain unchanged, and the recon-
mendation was adopted after considerable
wrangling.
The Chicago and New York delegation
wanted the article amended SO as to per-
nit the selling of intoxicants at public en-
tertainments given by the order.
III selecting place for the next meeting
it was decided the three cities re-
ceiving the highest number of
votes should be referred to the
general executive board with instructions
to select the city out of the three that Of
fered the best accommodations. The cities
bidding for the session received the fol-
lowing votes: Atlanta 35, New Orleans 20,
Albany IA, Toledo 9, Washington 4.
Toronto and Detroit f. Either Atlanta,
New Orleans or Albany will have to be
chosen by the board.
The committee on resolutions recon-
mended the appointment of COM
miCCee TO investigate the mlSureat-
ment of knights in Louisiana.
1t was reported that members
of the order had been shot down in that
state for striking, and by unanimous vote
the general assembly directed the general
executive board to make a full investlga-
ton and to use every means to have the
guilty persons punished.
The Blair educational bill was endorsed
and then a resolution severely denouncing
the provincial committee was offered.
After some discussion the resolution was
referred back 10 the committee without
being acted upon.
A Recommendation to establish
junior locals was endorsed and
the executive board was instructed to
prepare constitution for the new locals.
An effort WAS made to have the trouble
in the district assembly of New York re-
opened, but it failed.
The matter of investigating the general
office at Philadelphia was called up again,

THEY SHIET With The WIND.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-Some amusing
situations now present themselves in the
departments. -Four years ago, immedi-
ately after Mr.. Cleveland's election, there
was a multiplicity of Republican office
holders who suddenly imagined them
selves at least mugwnmps. There were a
few who became Democrats, even to a
degree of enthusiasm. Those who re-
manned Republicans and remained in
office maintained an impressive and, at
times. anxious silence through the long
four years. As the recent election
approached the mugwumps became
Democrats, the Democrats intensified their
acquired BourboniSm, and few OF the Re
pubicans still in Office, in the belief of
Mr.. Cleveland5s election, We're preparing
10 join the Democracy. Their protesta-
tons in favor Of the administration be
came more marked as election day ap-
preached. Now their calculations are
based upon an entirely different aSsump-
Won from that which occupied their ante
election minds. Discoveries of Republi-
cans are daily made in the departments. in
quarters where they were not suspected of
Xs-ing previous to the 9th of November.
One of the Democratic chiefs in the post
office department reports that all the Re
publican backSliders in his division
have been recalled from the Bourbon
paths, and are once more uproariously Re
publican. lie fears, indeed, that some of
his Democratic appointments may become
converted to the new faith, which Is To as
sumo control of the office on the 18th of
March. Similar reports come from all the
departments, and ii now looks as if the

in the government service would be miss

WITHDRAWING FROM THE G. A. r.

|
| INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 2z.-About 200 Dem
ocratic veterans, members OF Grand
Army Of the Republic posts scattered over
the state, assembled in the capitol build
| ing last night in secret meeting at which
| it was resolved that every Democratic
member of the Grand Army of the Repub-
| lie should abandon the order and all pres
ent pledged themselves to withdraw from
| thir posts. Adjutant General koutz pre-
sided A name and constitution for the
new order proposed by the Democratic
veterans were adopted. The new order
is to be charitable and non-pOlitical in
character.
Another meeting will be held tonight
and on Wednesday evening there will be a
public mass meeting in the city hall when
the reasons for deserving the Grand Army
of the Republic will be given and the prin-
ciple and objects of the new order laid be-
fore the public. Adjutant General koontz
says similar meetings will be held all over
the state during the next week. Mr.:
Koutz said last evening that he had
letters from men ali over the state lndlcat-
ing that the movement is natural. Among
the letters received was one from John A.
Woman, secretary Of the Democratic so
cieties of Pennsylvania, promising that
every Democratic soldier in Pennsylvania
will leave the Grand Army of the Re
public.
The president of the societies. who ran
against Beaver for governor, is at the head
of the movement in Pennsylvania. Mr..
Koutz says that but few Indiana Demo
Gratis have attended the Grand Army meet
ings since the election, because all posts
have been holding meetings ratifying the
election of Harrison and Hovey. 1t is
pretty generally believed that Congress
man Matson is at the head Of the move
ment, but so far he has made no public
statement 1t is known that he feels very
sore because the Grand Army Of the Re
public, as an organization, worked against
him. and his friends here say that he will
follow the example of General Palmer, Of
Illinois.

HAVLlN AND WARREN FIGHT.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov 27.-Featherweight
Jack Havlin and Tommy Warren met at
the rooms of the California Athletic club
tonight and fought for puese of 81 600
Time was called at 9:15. The first eight
rounds favored Warren but after that the
fight progressed with varying success and
Havlin appeared to be recovering. In the
thirteenth round the men clinched. Hav-
In was thrown roughly to the floor.
Havlin did but little in the next five
rounds. Warren continued To have the
best of the fight and whenever an opening
occurred he would send hard one on
Havln's head. In the eighteenth round
Havlin was knocked against the ropes and
a Clinch followed. Warren threw
Havhn heavily to- to the floor
but the claim was not allowed. In the
nineteenth round Havlin led out savagely
three times and each time caught Warren
we'll on the chin or in the eye, which
caused blood TO flow.
The last few rounds of the fight were the
most brutal ever seen in this city. 1t was
evident TO every one that Havlin
had no possible chance of
winning. In the Jwenty-first round he
was knocked down twice and after that
was hardly able to strike a blow. Warren
was apparently almost as fresh as in the
beginning of the fight and swollen lip
was the only Disagreement to be seen on
him. Havlin, on the contrary, presented
most pitiable appearance. His lip and
eyes were terribly swollen and blood
covered every part of his face aud part OF
his body. In the twenty-Second round he
was knocked down once and in
the next round five times In
the twenty-fourth round he was
hardly able TO stand and Warren sent him
To the floor six times He came forward
for the twenty-fifth, but was hardly on his
feet before Warren sent him under the
ropes. To the surprise of every one he
again stood up only 10 be knocked under
