A Rroadsword Contest.

NEW HAVEN, October 1S.-A broad
sword contest, this afternoon, between
Bryan Lynn. of this city, member of
the Connecticut National Guards, and
XAVIER Orlofsky, of the German Black
Hussars, developed SO much bad blood
that the police interfered and stopped
the fight after the second attack. When
Lynn first rode up and saluted Orlofsky
the latter retsllated by giving him a
bad cut on the wrist. This made the
crowd very indign ant. The contest
proceeded in an excited manner. The
Connecticut man had the best of it, and
the score stood Lynn points, Orlofsky
6 points. When the men came
together in the second bout, Lynn
greatly surprised Orlofsky by unhorsing
him. At this the latter became greatly
enraged, and making up to Lynn,
struck him across the sword arm. The
crowd then made break for Orlofsky,
and the police had a lively time to keep
them off. When order was partially
restored the chief of police stopped the
fight. The referee decided the score to
be: Lynn, 9 points; Orlofsky, 5 points,
and ordered the fight continued at
some future time

the capital of the Empire, the people
desired to found an institution to
perpetuate his memory, and that $25 600

The precise objects OF the pro-
posed institution would be left to
the discretion of the Empress, the
noble partner of Emperor Frederick,
in his efforts for the peoples welfare
and enlightenment, and they were con-
fident that she was best fitted TO carry
out the Emperor's wish. The Empress
appeared deeply moved, and expressed
her heartfelt thanks, and said she

The Fight Against Dr. mackenzie.

BERLIN, October 18.-The National
Zeitung says that Doctors Burgmann
and Gerhardt have declined to adopt the
suggestion to have the public prose-
cutor indict DR.. Mackenzie and the
German publishers of his book for libel.
They declare that DR.. Mackenzie's
statements will recoil on himself, and
are therefore anxious that his book
be given the fullest publicity. Pro-
lessor VercheW, in an interview
with a representative of the Vassich
Zeitung, protests that DR.. Mackenzie at
tempted TO throw the responsibility
upon him. He said he had not been
summoned to see Emperor Frederick.
The autopsy, he added, showed that
the disease was more deeply seated than
the tumor from which DR.. Mackenzie
removed the particle for examination.
The police of Berlin have seized all
English and French copies of DR.. Mac
Kennels book.
LONDON, October SD. Mackenzie
has issued statement refuting the as
sertions of Professor Virchow and DR.

Howell corroborates the statements of

BERLIN, October 1S.-Prof. Beagmann

erick saw proofs of his book before it
was published.

Going Back to the Pilgrim Fathers
Awaiting the Contest With
Confidence.

PoUeHKEEPsIE. N. Y, October 49,
There was an immense demonstration
at Rhine Cliff to night, the occasion be-
ing the visit of various Republican
clubs to Levi P. Morton. Folly 5000
people were present. On arriving at
Mr.. Morton's residence, the clubs
massed on the lawn on the north side
of the house. George Eiselstein, of
Rhinebeck, as chairman, welcomed the
clubs and presented them to Mr.. Nor

think, only be compared to that
of the red men OF the forest
when the Pilgrim Fathers landed on
Plymouth Rock, or when Hendrick
Hudson's boats made its first trip up
the Hudson River. 1 have great pleas
ure in greeting you with a cordinal
welcome, and beg to assure you OF my
grateful appreciation Of the honor
conferred on me by your visit. Be
yond welcoming you here in the best
terms at my command. 1 do not see
| that there is much to be said. You
are Republicans and arguments, there
| fore, are not needed either to convert
YOU to those principles or strengthen
your wavering faith in them, and it sc
happens that within the party there are
no questions at issue upon which the Re-
publicans differ. There is nothing in
our platform that calls for explanations
or diplomatic excuses, and there are
neither party cliques, nor sections OIL
| factions. Furthermore, we have no pol
itics to talk about. This evening We
can falicitate ourselves and others
upon the harmony which pervades
the Republican Party, and the element
of strength which such unity
| of sentiment ond purpose so closely be-
tokens. You probably know that the
Republicans of every other county il
the State are working in as complete
1 Harmony as in this. With this har-
mony and Unanimity Of sentiment anC
action what is the result that we may
reasonably expect to achieve at the
polls? There are among you many
who spent the flower of youth in the
battle for freedom, and you can practic
| ally estimate the battle of the close
masses when entering the conflict. You
experience will teach you that organi
cations such as the large number
present tonight, are effective anc
powerful agencies in the campaign
| but, my friends. industrial and persona
work is equally important. Only few
days remain for effective work before
the verdict must be given, which, in
my judgment, will have far-reachine
effect on the future prosperity of the
country. The absorbing question a
this time Is whether the verdict vii
flavor an advance of those PRINCIPLES Of
protection for which the Republican
have always commended, and which hav
placed this country at the head of in
dustrial nations. With such complete
harmony in our ranks, such unison il
sentiment, action and in expectation, VI
may await with confident assurance
the coming contest.

A Busted Trust.

CHICAGO. October 1S.-Nathan Car
with & Co., the great lead firm and
promoters of the gigantic pig lead trust
or corner, have failed. The immediate
cause of the collapse was the refusal of
the Union National Bank of Chicago to
extend the time on oYer-drafts to the
amount of $4,000. This sum will
represent a very small portion of the
firms Indebtedness to the bank, and is
only the climax to long series of over
drafts to pay margins which we're for
the pig lead trust. The liabilities run
into millions and the assets cannot now
