New YORK, Nov. l9.--A special to the
Herald from San Francisco says that Alfred
Fallon, son Of San Jose millionaire, fought
bloodless duel Thursday evening with s. S.
Seymour, proprietor of the Russ house, San
Francisco. Each man fired one shoG. No
blood was spilled, but the men seemed, salts
fled. Later in the evening Fallon was ar.
rested while beating his wife at the Russ
house He was afterward released on bail,
which Seymour assisted in procuring 1t is
limited that Fallon's jealousy of Seymour
caused all the trouble. Neither FaRon nor
his wife will talk concerning the matter, and
both are apparently reconciled. Mrs. Fallon
was formerly known as Verona Baldwin,
and gained considerable notoriety by a
breach of promise case against Lucky

why DR.. Hostetter Made No Wnl.

New YORK, Nov. ia Tribune special

seems that the millionaire had made will,
one of the bequests provided for being a
fund for a fine art gallery and mechanics
hall to be given to the city of Pittsbur. to
cost 81. 100000. A few weeks ago, however.
the city comptroller took u step which
angered DR.. Hostetter so that he destroyed
the WILL Itappears that DR.. Hostetter was
bondsrnan for a city contractor against
whom a Judgment in favor of the city bad
been rendered On that judgment the city
comptroller had an execution issued on some
the doctors property. The doctor felt that
undue haste was used, as he was good for the
amount and would have paid it witho 1T the
necessity of an execution. The comptroller's
action SO offended the doctor that he went to
the safe deposit company where he had de
posted the will, and tore it into shreds, and
up to the time of his death he could not be
induced to make another.

The progress of this sinking down the
last 2. 900 years is clearly shown iii an
old map found at the Abbey of Mount
Saint Michel. Within no more than seven
centuries back as many as seven par
ishes are said to have disappeared 10y the
subsistence of this region. And IN the
bay of DOuarnenez there Is known 10
have existed in the fifth century quite a
fiourlshing town called Is. the scene OF
the famous tragical legend. Even nov.
at low water. may be seen the old walls
of Is. which are called by the inhablt-
ants Mogber Greghi (wall of the Greeks.
The people OF the country pretend that
they can sometimes hear the old church
bells OF the submerged city ringing with
the motion of the current. French ge-
ologists estimate that the gradual sinking
of the soil of Brittany, Normandy,
Artois. Belgium and Holland is not less
than seven feet century. At this rate
it is calculated that IN about ten cen
turtles all the channel ports will be de-
stroyed, and Paris itself viii have
become maritime city. In another ten
centuries 1t is predicted that the French
capital itself will have become entirely
submerged, excepting, perhaps, that the
tops of the Pantheon, of the Arc de Tn

be discernable at low water by the people
who viii then be living.

BoULANGER DECLARES HIMSELF.

After a good deal of skirmishing Cen
eral Boulanger has revealed his plan OF
battle and announced his intentions. He
declares his ambition is not for war with
Germany, is not to be a leader in the
chamber of deputies, is not to overthrow
the administration, but 1t is something
quite modest. He is willing to be presi-
dent of the republic. He thinks that
the country should not feel any more
alarmed at the prospect of having him
president than it did with Grevy or
Carnot. So he fancies that the people
will take him up and put him at the
head of the republic, where he has no
doubt his genius will shine with unusual
lustre. There is nothing like asking for
what you want in these days, and Gen
eral Boulanger evidently knows it. He
wants TO be president and he is perfectly
willing that all France should know it.
When he sees anything else he wants he
will probably ask for it. As for the re-
port that he was aching for row with
some one he SAYS lit is idiotic to say
Boulanger c'est La guerre." He thinks
that the country should say rather 'Bou-
LANCER c'est Ia paix" Having this
authoritative statement that this doughty
warrior stands for peace and not for
war, let us turn our eyes again to the
interests that center at Berlin.

A WORD ABOUT TRUSTS.

Frnm the Tariff League Bulletin.
Don't be deceived by the cry of the
demagogue that the tariff furthers
trusts" The greatest trusts in this
country are in lines which the tariff in
no way effects-Such as the Standard
Oil, for instance-and the coffee trust,
whose operations have run the price up
and down for a twelvemonth, could not
have been aided by tariff, because no
duty is levied on the article
Thus the trust argument against the
tariff falls to the ground. Every think
ing man knows that the way to deal
with unlawful combinations is by re-
strictive legislation in every state, and
this ought to be done at once.
But how about the foreign trust
out of reach OF domestic legislation-to
which the free trader proposes to open
up our markets, cOnfessedly the best in
the world: Trusts" exist in European
countries, in comparison with which
those on this side of the Atlantic are
dwarfed into insiSnificance. Are we
going to stand idly by while the free
traders put us in the power of these giant
monopolies? Wherein has the foreign
manufacturer shown more feeling for
his consumers, or more humanity for
his employees than his American breth-
rem, that he should thus be given the ad-
vantage? Suppose you gave him the
right TO manufacture your clothing, your
steel rails, your pottery and glassware;
suppose, by voting for free trade. YOU
did all this, would the fareign manufac-
turer hesitate at forming trust" that
would put a false value On every one of
these articles:
Not for an instant,
Quick as fash. after ne had driven
every American manufacturer out Of
business, prices would go up with
bound. just as they have invariably
gone down in every line in which pro-
duction has been increased by protection.
so they would 90 M as home production
was lessened by foreign importations,
under free trade.
You can control the trusts in this
country by legislation. but put your mar
kets in the hands Of nerciiess foreign
clique, and they are wholly OUT Of your
power.
Remember this, too: When competi-
ton is possible, combination IS impos-
sibie.
Wichita eagle., 1888-04-20
POLICY VS.. PRINCIPLE.

As the time draws nearer for the
meeting of the Democratic convention
the necessity for harmony within the
party becomes more pressing, and the
employment Of every means on the part
of the administration to conciliate and
unity the hitherto diScordant elements
more imperative And it is observed
that no opportunity is allowed to pass
unimproved where there is a possibility
for the accomplishment of such an end
The most notable illustration of this
fact of recent date is the case of the APP
pointment Of Dir. Lowering to be United
States marshal at Boston in place of
General n. p. Banks. 1t is positively
asserted that Mr.. Lowering is no personal
friend of Mr.. Cleveland's. The men who
had been demanding his appointment
are not the men whom Mr.. Cleveland
has taken into his friendship and his
confidence.
Last fall Mr. Lowering was the Demo-
cratic candidate for the governor of
Massachusetts on a platform of oppo-
stion to the administration. The con-
vention that nominated him strongly
denounced the civil service policy which
Mr.. Cleveland pretended to favor, and
put itself on platform Of spoils for the
victors. Mr.. Coverings nomination
was opposed by the mugwumps on
the ground that he represented
only the vicious theory in politics.
But he was nominated and although de-
feated. his friends insisted that they
would yet bring the administration to
terms. Accordingly they have been
bombarding Mr.. Cleveland to make him
the successor of Gen. Banks, whose term
had just expired, and Mr.. Cleveland has
surrendered. Instead of taking some
mugwump or Democrat of neutral posi-
ton, Mr.. Cleveland has chosen a man
who has fought him and whose friends
have fought him, and who represents
the old bourbon element within the
party. Mr.. Lowering may be a good
man personally, he had good record as
a soldier, has served a term in congress,
but his appointment nevertheless means
the surrender of Mr.. Cleveland's pre-
tended civil service ideas and a blow at
mugwump dictation. In these closing
days of Mr.. Cleveland's administration
it Is evident that he is not going to let
any little matter of personal preference
stand in the way of his denomination
when little policy and surrender will
help TO make ii certain.
