THE BORDER WAR.

CHICAGO, September IA special dis
patch from Catlettsburg. KY, says: An
other raid was made by the MeCoys on the
Hatfield settlement Friday and as usual
the West Virginians were worsted. Ine
following account of the affair wss received
from Capt. M. B. Goble last night: TIE
Mccoy crowd made g raid yesterday and
attempted to arrest one of our innocent cit
izens, Richard Casey, a person who never
had anything to do with the trouble.
They were stopped before they succeeded.
They came upon the West Virginia boys
at Pawpaw Mountain, where lively bat
tie took place. In the melee two OF the
West Virginians were killed and two
more badly wounded. None OF the Ken
tuckians were hurt. Oar county is
in terrible state of excitement just now.
The West Virginia boys say they
will have revenge in some way. The Ken
tuckians are ready for them at any time.
Just what will be the outcome Of the feud
no one can tell. During the last mon b
the West Virginiars have raided stbs Ken
tuckians twice and have lost i've men
killed outright, while the old Common.
wealth shows an unbroken front. A total
annihilation of ore or the other faction
seems to be the only thing. The West
Virginians have always been the aggressois g,
but, when molested, the Kentuckians have
on each occasion showed the intruder they
were at home.

PRESIDENT JAMES CAMPBELL, Of tho
WiunoU Glass Workers National Associa-
tion, is q voluble man. he also has
record, aud between his tongue and his
record has succeeded in getting himself
into n very unpleasant situation. Mr..
CAMPREI,L went to Europe as adelegate 70
the Window Glass Makers International
conference, and on his return had himself
extensively interviewed as to the condition
of the laboring classes in Belgium, from
which he drew 'strong" argument for
the maintenance Of the war tax ''protee-
tive" tariff. Not satisfied with this, Mr..
CANPBELL proposed to go on the stump
for HARRISON and MORTON, and further
proposed that the window glass makers
should pay his expenses.
But a cloud about the size of mans
hand has appeared on Mr.. CAMPBsLL's g
political horizon. 1t is this same record.
A few years ago the window glass makers
were on . strike. The men in q Columbus
factory refused TO stand by their brethren.
In other words they were scabs. The strike
was defeated, mainly through the influence
of these men. And prominent amoOg
them was this same Mr.. CAMPBELL.
Il will be seen that Mr.. CAMPBELL has
had a varied labor career. No one will
donbt that he is prOtsctionist-for reve-
nue. only. The honest wOrkiugmen OF his
order will not he deceived by his false pre-.
lenses.

FINDLAY, o., September 17.-In a
speech at Tiffiu last night, his first appear.
ance on the stump this campaign, ex.Gov'
ernor Charles Foster, who, it is said, is go
ing to conduct canvass of the State indie
pendent of the Republican Central Com
mittee, made it plain that he was
candidate for the place in the United
States Senate now held by Henry
B. Payne. In explaining why ne had re-
fused the Congressional nomination ten
dered him by the Republicans of this dis
trict, he said his action was based on his
desire 10 be free next year to devote his
time and energy to securing Legislature
which would send Republican to the
United States Senate to fill the position
now occupied hy the ''speechless specimen
of Democracy, Henry B, Payne"
1t is an open secret that Foraker and
Foster are exceedingly jealous of each
other, and that they are not working in
harmony this campaign. Mckinley and
Butterworth, who are alec after the Sena-
torial plum, are pulling together for the
general success of the ticket, leaving next
years fight to take care of itself, but this
is not the case as regards Foster and Fora
ker, the former not giving any
heed to the State Central Committee,
which the latter formed to seat him
self, but going ahead on his own hook-a
condition of things which causes much un'
easiuess, because, however reliable Ohio
has heretofore been for the Republican
cause, the Democrats are doing great
deal of quiet back-township-under- cover
work, which, in view Of the jealousies
which inspire the Republican leaders re-
garding the Senstorship, may make the
issue in November exceedingly doubtful.

BAROTHY'S SECRET.

In Honor Bound to Take His Own
Life.
OMAHA, September 17.-In the reports
which have come to this city of the suicide
OF Oers Barothy, formerly Of Omaha, dis
appointment in love was assigned as the
cause Of the melancholy act. Recent dis
closures, however, prove that such was not
the case.
Young Barothy was q Hungarian. He
possessed the indomitable spirit peculiar to
his race. His personal honor was dearer
than life itself Three years ago on the
10Th of this month, he was mortally
offended by an officer in the army st home.
He challenged the soldier. The challenged
soldier accepted with the usual privilege
Of selecting the weapons or the means
to be used of satisfying the
honor of both parties. In Hun
gary there are three methods allowable in
such events-the sword the pistol, or
what is termed the American plan" /"
This consists in each party drawing one
or two balls, white or black. The man
who draws the black ball is bound to dis.
pose OF himself in any manner which
NAV be decided upon by the challenged
party.
Barothy drew the black or unlucky
ball. 1t had been agreed tnat the drawer
Of the unlucky one should kill himself by
shooting on the third anniversary Of the
duel. That anniversary took place last
Wednesday. That night Gers Barothy
walked to the shore of Lake Michigan, in
Chicago, and in remembrance of his word
and honor, sent three bullets into his
body and died.
