HEeELmAN STILL LEADING.

Guerrero Unable as Yet to Lessen the
 Ten Miles Between Them - A Big
 Crowd Watch the Peds and Urge
 Them on With Shouts and Cheers
 The Final Struggle To-Day.
 larger crowd than ever watched the progress of the 72 hour walking match in Lincoln rink last night. More enthusiasm than usual was displayed by the numbers of spectators. The favorite peds were uged on by shouts and cheers and the walking was more spirited than on the night before. Hegelman still led the group of walkers with Guerrero about ten miles behind. Hegel- did on the night before. Guerrero on the contrary, did not seem to hold out so well. Nevertheless 8 com parison of the condition of the two men would result most decidedly in favor of the Spaniard. His eyes are bright, his form well held, his step light and full of snap and vim. Hegelman seems to keep deggedIy in his lead by stubborn de- termination to win. Smith and Horan both bettered their standing during the night. Horau has frightened much in appearance.
 Much interest was aroused about g o'clock by the appearance of Dan Herty, the worlds champion, on the track. He ran three miles in about 161a minutes. He was ap- it's most lively airs. He also ran three
 miles at o'clock in about the same time. Hegeman will have g tough tussle with Guerrero to hold his lead to-day. The friends of the Spaniard are confident that he will make O spurt that will gradually put him in the lead. Hegelman is determined to follow him closely, as he has done all through the l. o1xv taav, fhoY, yards apart. Mrs. Guerrero, who Is constantly on the track attending to the wants of her husband, is confident that he will win. She is bright, keen-eyed woman of medium height and graceful figure. She has the ut most confidence in her husbands ability and seems to be justified by his past record, which she proudly refers to. She says that her Alviso, southern California. His father was a Spaniard and his mother an American. He took several medals in the West and came
 East four or five years ago. He regards as the biggest race of his life that which took place in the Madison Square Garden in May /, 1Ss8 That was perhaps the greatest pedes- trian contest in the history of the world. In that race Guerrero made the unprecedented
 feat of staying on the track for 26 consecu- tive hours.
 Guerrero has a big bag full of medals | which he has won in contests, and all are inscribed with his name and record in the particular race in which they were won. He | claims that it is only by accident that Hegel- 1 man is ahead of him in the race, and if | Hegelman wins it Guerrero will immediately
 challenge him to run any distance, from five
 to twenty miles, for any amount of money, | in order to show the public which is the bet | ter. Those who have watched the race,
 however, are confident that Guerrero will pass Hegelman before 12 o'clock tonight. The scora At midnight stood:

A LONG SESSION.

The Committee on Streets Hold a
 Long Session The Dewitt street
 Matter-The Corporation Counsel
 Gives His Opinion-Voted to Discon-
 tinue the Street.
 The committee on streets had very long
 session last evening. Alderman Blakeslee
 and Councilmen Martin, Lowe and Wardell
 were present.
 The following petitions were recommended:
 For cobble gutters on First street, both sides;
 for crosswalk on Whalley avenue, corner of
 University place; for concrete walks on both
 sides of Castle street; for concrete walk and
 curb on east side of Mansfield street, from
 Saohem street ta Hillside place; for watering
 tank at the junction of Shelton and Dixwell
 avenues; for sidewalk on east side of Foote
 street; for cobble gutters on Hillside place
 and Munson street; for sidewalk on both
 sides of Willow street.
 The petitions for changing the name of
 Martin street to Edgewood avenue; for top-
 dressing Whalley avenue; and for the exten- sion of Commerce street were tabled. In the matter of paving Chestnut street, the members of the committee were in doubt whether sidewalk or a street pavement was desired, and gave the petitioners leave to withdraw. The committee voted to adhere to its former action in accepting the layout of West Drive.
 A communication was read from the cor poration counsel, stating that in his opinion
 Searles Lane is merely private way that has
 never ben accepted by the city, and never by it thrown open to the public, and that no vote to abolish or discontinue it will be ne- l cessary.
 In his opinion on the Dewitt street matter Corporation Counsel Townsend reviewed the | history of the whole affair, and said that the
 land embraced in the extension had already been legally taken and devoted to the public | use, although the street has not been extend l ed in fact. If the court of common council shall determine that public convenience and | necessity do not require an extension of said | street, it may order discontinuance of g l portion of the street.
 Upon such order the question of the obli. gation of the city in regard to the return of money paid under former assessment may be brought before the board of compensation in | it's assessment of benefits and damages by reason of the discontinuance, or the claims | by reason of such payments, may be pre- sented to the committee on claims. The ob. | ligations of the city in regard to the return of such assessments cannot definitely be as-
 certained until it shall be determined what | portion of the benefits assessed was for the widening and what for the extending of said street.
 After considerable discussion the commit l tee voted to discontinue the street. Council- | men Love- Wardell and Martin voted for the
 discontinuance, while Alderman Blakeslee'a sympathies were with those who favored ex- | tending the street. The alderman an
 anounced that he would make minority re. port.

Sections of a Broken Freight Train Rush Down
a Hill Into an Engine with Fatal Results.

WALsENBURG, Col. Dec. 1s.-A shocking
accident occurred on the Denver 81 Rio
Grande railroad, last night. four miles west
of here, in which an engineer and fireman
were instantly killed and a large amount of
property destroyed. A freight train left
Laveta made up of two engines in front.
twenty-five cars of cattle. ten freight cars
and caboOse and an engine in the rear. The
train soon broke in three parts, and then
there began a race for life, as the middle
section was loose from the cabOose with no
brakeman on it. The engines ran about
three miles at the rate of over a mile q min
ute, down a grade ninety feet to the mile.
four cars, loaded with cattle and lumber,
overlook them. The first engine escaped,
but the second one was instantly over
whelmed in a great mass of flying wreck
age. which buried the engineer and fireman
beneath it, killing them instantly. POr-
tions of the timber on the flying cars were
thrown over two hundred feet when the
collision occurred. Seven cars OF cattle
and eight cars of lumber were piled up in
the wreck. and nearly all of the cattle were
killed or horribly mangled. VIM. Gleyer,
the dead engineer. leaves a wife and one
child. Thomas Baker. the fireman. was a
single man. w. III. Ferringer and D.. Ed
Monsoon both brakemen. were severely in
jured, and were taken to the company's

WANTS TO FIGHT A DUEL.
One Angry Jerseyman Challenges Another to
Settle a Quarrel on the Field of Honor.

HAcKENsACK. n. j., Dec. 1S.-Alfred
Smith, one of the leading business men of
this place. to-day openly challenged Joseph
Bahman, of EnglewoOd, to fight a duel. II
will have your blood or you shall have
mine." exclaimed Smith to Bahman, in the
Hackensack Hotel, before a crowd of per-
sons. The trouble between the men grew
out of the Meyer-Bahman SANDER suit.
which was set down for trial In the county
court here to-day. The case was settled at
the last moment by Bahman retracting a
charge he had made against Mrs. Emma
Meyer. wife of the proprietor of the Ma
tional Hotel, of this place. Bahman also
apologized to Mr.. Meyer in the pres
ence of n few prominent residents.
and agreed to pay the cost of
court $50 and Meyers counsel fees
of $3.50. Bahman had said in public that
Alfred Smith had been too intimate with
Mrs. Meyer. After the case was settled
Smith sought Bahman, and found him IN
the Hackensack Hotel. An exciting scene
followed, the two men making charges of
cowardice and lying against each other.
They were finally led away by friends.
Smith declares he will have satisfaction If
it costs him his life. and Bahman has in
structed his counsel to bring a Islander suit
against Smith. Both are prosperous busi-
ness men. and each is over six feet high.
The alta has caused much excitement
here. and many persons fear there will be
serious trouble between the men.

LoNDoN,s wEsr-END SCANDAL.

Arrests Ordered for C~onspiring to Defeat
Justice-Labouchere's Denunciation.
LONDON. Dec. 1S.-As q result of the &C.
cret examination in connection with the
West-end scandal before the magistrate of
the B0w-street Police Court, on Monday
last. summonses have been issued for the
arrest of a solicitor named Arthur Newton.
q clerk in his employ named Taylor. and
an interpreter named Degala. for conspir-
ing to defeat justice. 1t is understood that
Newton obtained funds for Hammond, the
proprietor of the Cleyeland-street house. in
which the scandal occurred, and for whose
arrest a warrant was issued, and assisted
him in reaching America.
Preliminary to his demand in Parliament.
when that body shall assembly, that the
government take official cognizance of
West-end club scandals. Mr.. Labouchere
publishes in Truth a scOrching review of
the infamy, which, though treating of the
details of necessity by innuendo.i is the most
thorough exhibit of the r~ottenness of q
certain class of English aristocracy thatany
journal has yet dared to place before its
readers. While mentioning 40 names in
connection with the affair. the most casual
reader of the distinguished Radicals
structures canno fail to recognize the per-
sons likely to be called to account, despite
the manifest desire of the government to
shield them. One peer implicated In the
scandal, Mr.. Labouchere asserts. has al
ready tacitly admitted his guilt. by not
only leaving the country, but by seeking
congenial associations in the service of the
Sultan of Turkey.
