THE New York World holds difficult place on the political fence trying to keep on the ins with both Cleveland and Hill, both of whom it evidently regards as presidential possibilities in 1899. We rather think David Bennett Hill has the best end of the rope in the tug of war for the next nomination.

The First suit Filed

The first legal measures instituted against
Moore were began yesterday by the Connect
cut Mutual, through its secretary, Mr.. Abbott
for the attachment of certain sums loaned by
Moore and punishment proceedings to prevent
an unknown amount of money being paid out
alleged to be in the possession of the Indianap-
oils national bank.
The following are the several amounts and
names of the persons who are made supple
mentaTy defendants in the attachment pro-
ceeCkngs:
A. L. Holton, 81 800; D. NJ Spaulding, ST.
236: J. G.. Gayer 81 900; j. Chambers. $1,000;
J. Shauryielt, 1926; :. b. Reynolds, 1899; 5.
Broult, q ,64S; J.. c. BOdl<in, Il, 1860; j. IL.
Gartin. $3.50.
Mr.. Abbott announces in the complaint that
he is the regular authorized secretary of the
company and that he is fully qualified TO insti-
tute any and all legal proceedings in the name
OF the company. He says that Moore coneeals
himself and that his whereabouts is unknown.
The total amount involved in the attachment
proceedings is Sl3,454.70.
The papers of the garnisheement proceedings
against the indianapolis national bank OF
which Theodore L. Haughey is president, set
forth that Moore has certain sums on deposit
there. the amount of which is unknown by
reason of the bank reticence, and demands that
the bank be forbidden TO transfer any stock or
pay ont any funds which may be in the name Of
said Moore until the court can designate the
disposal OF the same. Mr.. Hauchey seen
by reporter and asked rs to the amount of
Moore'S deposits in his bank. Mr.. Haughey
emphaticalIy denied, however, that the bank
was in possession OF a single cent belonging TO

Another Sensational story.

LONDON, Feb. Another sensational story
relative to the death of the Austrian crown
prince comes from Brussels. It's asserted that
the crown prince became entangled in an affair
of honor with high Austrian family, and that
il was decided that the prince and a son of the
family in question should fight duel on the
so-called American plan, according 10 which
method dice are thrown to decide which of the
duelists shall commit suicide. The dice were
thrown and Rudolph lost The time specified
for the suicide of the loser was three months,
and at the expiration of that period the crown
prince fulfilled his engagement and took his
own life. The fact that during the time men,
toned Rudolph was apparently preparing for
his coming death seems to give color to the
foregoing story.
The Vienna correspondent of the Chronicle
complains of the press censorship in stopping
his kilograms. The Brussels correspondent of
the Chronicle alleges that letter from the
Vienna correspondent of that paper asserts
that when the door of Crown Prince Rudolph's
room was forced open the body OF beautiful
young Bohemian lady was found. The cores
pendent asserts that the crown prince first
killed her with a revolver and then shot MIN.
self, and that the body of the lady was con
veyed secretly to the seat of her family in Bo-
hemIa. Two other versions of the alleged
double tragedy are current and have already
been cabed abroad, but the foregoing is most
generally believed.

FOUGHT FIFTEEN ROUNDS
But Neither Gould Whip, So 1t Was De.
clnred n Draw.

BOsToN, Feb. John Lannon of South
Boston and George Godfrey, the well-known
eolored heavyweight pugiliSt of this city. faced
each other tonight for fifteen rounds, for a
purse OF II 600 at the rooms OF the Crib club.
There was a very large attendance of sports,
and more than 800 were unable to gain admis-
sion. John l.. Sullivan acted as referee. Lam
non was looked after by Steve Taylor and Ned
MacAvOy, and Jim Godfrey and Pete Mccoy
seconded Godfrey.
Lannon began the fighting and in the first
ten rounds did practically all the leading. In
the fourth round LannOn apparently had his
opponent nearly whipped, but he failed to fol-
low up his advantage. In the fifth round
LannOn landed terrific blow ON Godfrey s
Jaw bringing first blood. Godfrey turned the
tables in the seventh round by planting his
left on Lannon's neck, bringing him to the
floor. There was much bad temper shown
by both men, and much clinching
was done. For the last five rounds
Godfrey showed to better advantage than Lam
non, bur both were weak and their blows did
very little execution. At the end OF the fif-
teenth round LannOn expressed a desire to
continue the fight. but as the understanding
arrived at previous 10 the fight was that in case
neither contestant was knocked out at the end
of fifteen rounds the match should be de-
clared draw, the referee declared il.
Lannon weighed 1S5 pounds and Godfrey was
about ten pounds lighter. The fight was with
fOur-Ounce gloves.

INDICTMENTS COMING.
The Grand Jury After Both Sullivan and
Moore.


Moore.
Judge Irwin yesterday instructed the grand
jury to investigate both the Moore and Sulli-
van defalcations. lie ordered the jury to in
vestigate both cases thoroughly, and to give
special attention to the Sullivan affair, by
reason of its magnitude and the manner in
which it has affected the local public.
The members of the grand jury are f. j. How
land, w. VI. Mcpherson, James A. Norwood,
William Fry, 4. :. Synder and Henry Whit
tenger. Judge Twins remarks concerning the
Sullivan and Moore matters were as follows:
Gentlemen, II has come to the knowledge of
the court that officer of the county, late
county clerk, is a defaulter to a large amount,
and also that an agent at this point of the Con-
necticut Mutual life insurance company has be-
trayed his trust and is a defaulter. Public in
terest demands that you take some notice OF
these defalcatiOns, and this Is especially due
because of the magnitude of the county clerk s
detalcatiOn. 1t is your duty to give these mat
tiers thorough and prompt investigation, and If
the evidence brought to your notice justify,
return indictments against the offenders, with
out regarding whether injured persons desire
an investigation or not Your relations to the
public good demand that you do this"
The grand jurors Immediately began work
and no time was lost in issuing summons for
the possession of various books and papers
belonging TO either defaulter. Hermann
Sprandel, cashier for Moore, was seen Juggling
a big bundle OF books into the grand Jury
room and it is presumed that the Moore defal-
cation viii be tackled first.

BERNHAMER FREE.
He Swears Himself Out of the Peniten-
tiary.


tiary.
". +. y Bernhamer, convicted of forging
election tally-sheets, is again free man, having
been formally released by L. S. Commissioner
Nathan Morris at $50 Saturday afternoon.
Bernhamer was sentenced to one years i'm
prisonment and to pay One-thousand-dollar
fine His term of imprisonment expired Jan. l.
Then it was necessary that he should serve
thirty days additional before he could take ad-
vantage OF the poor convict act and be released
from the payment of the fine.
Several days ago Bernhamer made appliea-
ton for his release to L. 5. Commissioner Nor
ris, and that gentleman issued a writ calling
for Bernhamer to be brought before him. On
the 1890 train yesterday he arrived in charge of
Deputy Marshal Chris Stein, and was at once
taken TO Mr.. Morris office. There he was ques-
toned by his attorney, the Hon. John w
Kern. lie swore that he had no property
greater in value than the legal exemption Of
1920 lie was asked regarding certain property
that stands in his name on the tax duplicates
and swOre that he did not own it. Thereupon
he was discharged from custody.
Accompanied by his partner, Mr.. Stegg, Bern
hamer went to the telegraph Office and sent
several messages. Then he went to his old
office. On the street many people turned to
look at him and some friends grasped his hand.
He looks little the worse for his thirteen
months retirement.

First District BY Over Five Hundred.
EVANSVILLE, Ind, Jan. 29.-lSpecial. The
special election in the First district to fill Gov.
Hovey's unexpired term in the Fiftieth con-
gress, was great surprise to both democrats
and republicans Unofficial returns from va
rious localities in the district indcate that Frank
B. Posey, republican, will be elected over
Judge William +. Parrett, democrat, by a
majority running between 800 and 200. The
same parties made the race for congress in
November last when Parrett, democrat, was
elected over Posey, republican, by twenty ma
jority. Posey county has had much to do with
Judge Parrett's defeat, the democracy
there being much dissatisfied with
Gov. Gray's recent appointment of
circuit iudge-the Hon. r. ID. Richardson
of this city having received The appointment in
stead of the Hon. William LOuden of Mt. Yer
non, and the democrats there threatened re-
venge. and il seems that they have made good
that threat There was an exceedingly light
vote in this county, and the republicans were
more on the alert this time than is usually the
case with them. In the twenty-five precincts
in Evansville, Posey's majority is $40. against
159 in November, 1883. The out townships are
mostly democratic and will doubtless reduce
this majority considerably. Posey carried Van
derburg county by "A in 1888. A telegram
from Rockport says Posey's majority in 1888
has been increased "a, and 16at Dale, Spencer
county. Returns are coming in slowly. Posey
will contest Parrett's seat in the Fifty-irst con-
gress.
