ALABAMA SENSATION.
A Bloody Duel With Knives in
a Dark Room.
The Victor Goes Crazy and is Killed by
a Negro in self-Defense-Bot Bodies
Were Buried Yesterday.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Nov. 10
Some time ago DR.. Robert Nabers,
residing at Montevallo, this State,
employed w. w. Shortridge, a law
yer, to collect few claims against de-
linquent patients. The returns were
not satisfactory and the men quar-
relied, but parted without coming to
blows. Word has just reached here
that Saturday Nabers called at Short
ridges Office and the trouble broke
out again. They finally agreed to
fight with bowie knives in a dark
ened room just off the Office. Re
moving their coats and shoes the
men entered the room and fought
blindly and desperately for nearly
ten minutes.
The duel was one of the most vic
ious ever known in Alabama. Per-
sons living in the lower story heard
the noise as the duelsts rolled upon
the floor, and ran up stairs. When
the door was broken open Nabers
staggered into the Office with blood
streaming from dozen gashes in his
face and breast. Without saying a
word, he rushed down the stairs, still
clasping gray knife in his hand.
Lying upon the floor of ther room was
Shortridge. His head had been
slashed in fearful manner. The
arteries of his neck had been severed,
one eye had been gouged out and his
hands were cut so terribly that the
fingers hung only by the tendons.
The man was dead.
Nabers, after leaving the office, ran
out upon the street where his bleed
ing face and CORY garments spread
CONSERVATION among the negroes.
The Doctor seemed to be crazed with
pain, and staggard wildly along the
streets until he reached a store where
Albert Keenan,, negro, stood in the
doorway. Without saying a word
he rushed at Keenan, and struck him
with the knife which he still held in
his hand. The negro started to run
into the store when the now insane
man made a desperate lunge at him.
keenan, seized gun which was ly-
ing upon the counter and then turned
to face the mad man, who was in the
act of making another swing with his
knife. The two men clinched, but
Nabers, who was weak from loss of
blood, was no match for his antOgon-
ist and was quickly thrown upon the
floor. Before he could get upon his
feet again Keenan, dealt him terri
bic blow upon the head with the
stock of the gun and then, leaving
his body, ran into the street and can
not now be found. Nabers never re-
gained consciousness. Both bodies
were buried yesterday, the funerals
being largely attended.

DoUBLETS.
Circumstances That Make CnSes All
Right-Another Compound Wedding
In the City To-day.

The passenger train from the North
to-day brought to Clarksville four
happy hearts, all of which were
united after most beautiful marri-
age ceremony by Rev. A. ID. Sears in
the parlors of the Arlington Hotel at
II o'clock this forenoon. Their
names were Mr.. Owen Wick and
Miss Amelia Wells, Mr.. c. l.. Mills
and Miss Evie Wells, all of whom
took passage at Slaughters' Station,
KY, and emigrated to this land of
promise in search of true happiness,
which they found quick and in great
shape.
They enjoyed an elegant dinner at
the Arlington Hotel, and will leave
for home on the evening train. The
brides were sisters and they skipped
away from home with their lovers
for causes that the CHRONICLE made
no inquiries about.

B. G o. PRESIDENCY.
A Movement on Foot to Give Senator A
P. German the Position.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 15.-There is
some whispering going on again
about the Presidency of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad Company. The
annual meeting of stockholders will
be held on next Monday, at which
time a board of directors will be
elected for the ensuing year. The
President will be chosen by
the directors about a month
later, and there is a movement on
foot to place United States Senator
A. p. German at the head Of the COM
pany. This very thing was mooted
a year ago, and when Mr.. Samuel
Spencer was promoted from the posi-
tion he then held to that of President,
a very close friend Of Robert Garrett
asserted that the new management
was only temporary arrangement.
The Board of Directors number
twenty three. OF these seven repre-
sent the stock held by Balti-
more City and four the State of
Maryland. These eleven members
would certainly vote for German for
President of the Baltimore d Ohio
and he would need but one more vote
to elect him. The relations between
Robert Garrett and Senator Gormon
have always been of the most init
mate character, and it is claimed by
those in the secret that Garrett will
use his influence in Gorman's behalf,
But even if this should fail them, the
director who represents the holdings
of the John Hopkins University can,
it is believed, be controlled so as to
give the Senator the deciding vote

FATAL RESULT,

Condition.

Two weeks since the CHRONICLE.
printed the particulars of old Mr..
John Hubbard being run over by a
reckless driver in front of the colored
school building, and that his head
was trampled upon, while his body
was seriously injured.
Mr.. Hubbard is past eighty-three
years old, and since his misfortune,
has been on thedown-grade. To-day
it was learned that his mental condi-
tion is exceedingly critical, and that
he is fast fading away.
This old man is an object of charity
in his present condition, and the good
people of Clarksville should hunt
him up and contribute their mites to
him. His home is at the east end of
Franklin street, and all kind hearted
people who ask Maj. Brandon, will
be correctly directed to his domicile.

DEMOCRATIC HARMONY.

The Birmingham Herald says: 1t
is profitable onlyto discuss the recent
Democratic defeat with the view of
making a better race next time.
1t will do no good for Democrats to
reproach one another with having
been the cause of the disaster. There
must be Democratic harmony now,
and the mistakes Of the past should
not be considered except that they
may be avoided in the future.
The Democratic party is not crushed
but has suffered only temporary re-
verse. 1t is the party of the people
and has vitality that cannot be de-
stroyed. 1t survived the war and
the revolution in our political fabric
that followed, it suffered six consecu-
tive defeats and then came again in
to power. One more baekset is not
going to kill it by any means.
But i'm times of adversely Demo
crats need hold together. They must
maintain close party organization
and work shoulder to shoulder for
future success

Slippers for the Children.

In one of the cantons of Switzerland
the public educational authorities cele-
brate the approach of the wet season by
providing each Of their young scholars
with a pair of slippers, which the chill
dren bring with them in the morning
and wear indoors during the day, while
their damp boots are being dried at the
fire. Thus the chances of their catching
cold are reduced to minimum, and the
result is, Of course, greater comfort for
the youngsters, much relief from anxiety
on the part Of their parents, and, it may
be assumed, n corresponding regularity
in school attendance. Some day poor
old England may sec its way to taking a
hint from little Switzerland. London

MAKING CABINETS.
The Latest Gossip Current at
Indianapolis.
Senator sabin Will Probably Have a
Portfolio-op of an Old Friend
of Gen. Harrison.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 15.--Prophete
and statemen abound in profusion
these days about the corridors of In
diapolis hotels. Cabinets are being
made and unmade with French ra-
pidity. This evenings News says !:
1.-THE latest bit of Cabinet gossip
connects Senator Sabin, of Minnesota,
with the Administration. 1t is re-
ported that he has declined to be q
candidate for reelection to the Sen
ate, after having prepared the way
for his return. Even as late as a
week ago it is said he was looking
after Minnesota legislators whose
votes he might desire, and he had
succeeded in getting pledges from
more than half of them. The only
explanation for his change of mind is
that he has been given an init
nation that there is
A HIGHER POSITION AWAITING HIM
and that 1t would be just as well to
let some other worthy man go to the
Senate. 1t is given out that he will
be in indianapolis in few days, and
that he does not come without assur-
ance that his presence is desired.
"It is expected that some extraor-
dinary things will be done by the
new President, but probably the
greatest move that he is likely to
make will be an endeavor to bring
about marked change in the rela-
tions between the North and South
Next to his endorsement of the pro-
tective doctrine there is nothing that
Gen. Harrison has advocated with
more emphasis than Il free ballot and
fair count, and in his public speeches
for the last several years he is pledged
to do everything possible to reform
Southern elections. He will endeav-
or to do it in kindly and friendly
way, but he will do it if the exer-
else of the Chief Magistrates power
for four years can be made to accom-
plish anything
POSSIBILITIES.
Col. John A. Bridgeland, of Rich
mond, Ind, one Of Gen. Harrison's
oldest friends, in an interview to-
day, touching Cabinet possibilities,
says:
"There is no doubt in my mind
that President Harrison's Cabinet
will be composed of great men who
Will be in full harmony with his
views. Gen. Harrison is a man who
will have his own way and tolerate
no contentious; it is necessary that
they should\be fully in harmony with
him. l believe that John Sherman
entertains viewSthat are in harmony
with those of Gen. Harrison, and |
believe that he will be member of
the Cabinet. Mr.. Frye, Of Maine,
would make very good secretary of
the Navy. He comes from a State
that builds more ships than any
other State in the Union; he is IA
miliar with naval affairs, and is a
member of the Fisheries Commits
sion he acquired much information
that would be very valuable to the
Administration.
