From The Washington Star (ReD.).
II the House Of Representatives is as much
in doubt as it appears 10 be concerning the
choice Of a speaker. why doesn't it advertise
for competent man and make short work of
its trouble? There is nothing in the constitu-
ton that limits the speakersnip to a member
of the House.

It is fortunate for the people Of the new state
governor, as he has the conscience and the
courage TO save It from the faint of fraud in the
treatment Of election returns which republican
politicians have been trying to put upon It.

The fatal ARRAY between Col Goodloe
and Col. Swope, two Kentucky republicans,
grew out of one of "Gath's" newspaper
articles. Seven or eight years ago Gath"
was in Lexington, KY, and while there he
met Col. Swope, who took him to the ceme-
terry and pointed out the graves of numerous
men who had been prominent. A good
many of the Goodloe family were buried
there, and Col. Swope gave Gath" some
what free talk about the lives of some of
that family. When Col Goodloe read
what Gath" wrote, he was indignant. H.
feeling between him and Col. Swope was
the result, aud it was famed into flame
by one thing and another as time passed,
until finally the two men became deadly
enemies.

The illness of Mr.. jefferson Davis has
revived the discussion of the question
whether or not the United States flag
would be placed at half mast over the war
department in the event of his death. Such
a mark Of respect has always been shown
deceased ex-cabinet officers, and when Mr.
Thompson, who was Secretary of the
Interior under Buchanan, and who after
ward Joined the southern confederacy, died
few years ago, the flag was raised over
that department. A howl at once went up
among republicans who wanted to work the
bloody shirt racket against the Cleveland
administration, but Mr.. Cleveland remained
tranquil, knowing that the proper thing
had been done. The war department.
refused to say what would be done in the
event of Mr.. Davis death, but it seems to
be the general outside opinion that the flag
would not be raised, as Mr.. Davis has never
had his disabilities removed.

The pettus-southworth Tragedy

All of the New York newspapers have
given great deal of space to the shooting
of Stephen Pettus by Mrs. Hannah South
worth, in that city, an account of which
was published in the MORNING NEWS on
last Saturday. Pettus was a native Of Ten
nessee, about 45 years old, and possessed
remarkable business ability. He went to
New York poor man, and at the time of
his death was estimated to be worth
81 ,0000 900. Mrs. Southworth belongs to a
Kentucky family of good social standing,
and is widow of about 81 years of age.
Her husband was the son of banker of
Syracuse, n. Y.
The day after the tragedy only Mrs
Southworth's story was published, and the
impression it created was that she had been
outrageously wronged by Pettus, and that
she had shot him to crafty her desire for re-
venge. Indeed, her story was we'll calcu-
lated to make the public believe that Pettus
deserved his fate, and that his case was one
that presented no extenuating circum-
stances.
Subsequently the dead mans lawyers
told his story, and also presented some facts
in his behalf which they knew of their own
knowledge. From this story it appears that
the relations between Pettus and Mrs
Southworth, in the beginning of their in
timacy, were entirely satisfactory to both
parties. They were based upon consent.
There was no deception practiced and no
force used. The intimacy began five years
ago, and continued several years. Finally
Pettus determined to bring it to
an end, because he had never en-
tertained any affection for the woman.
Then trouble began. Mrs. Southworth
resented Pettus' Indifference and determined
to make life a burden to him, and this she
seems to have done very effectually.
Although he gave her great deal of money
she was not satisfied, and persis5ently pur-
sued him with the demand that he should
fright tho wrong which he had done her.
Being a married man TIE only thing he
could do was to give her money. Pettus'
friends say that he refused to give her as
much as she wanted and that she killed him
for that reason.
1t would be unfair to express an opinion
as to which story is correct until all the
facts have been brought out at the coroner's
inquest. The most charitable opinion is
that Mrs. Southworth was very much in
love with Pettus and that his indifference to
her unsettled her mind.
There is no reason to doubt that Pettus
was not the moral man that he appeared to
the public to be. To a certain extent he
| seems to have had dual character. In the
| opinion of his business associates and
acquaintance he was incapable of stepping
aside from the strict path of rectitude, and
in all business matters he doubtless was the
soul of honor, but ne appears to have been
| guided by a low standard of morality in his
relations with the other sex. With reference
to Mrs. Southworth, it is not easy TO under
stand how she, a widow, having a great
deal of knowledge of the world, could
| have had such an experience as she claims
to have had wholly against her will
