counsel and Anderson himself really
though perhaps not technically, placed
themselves In contempt OF Judge Guth'
Eie's court by misrepresenting him u
Judge McGinnis and that they CON
temptuously treated Judge McGinnis by
misleading him. It will be shown that
they went to Judge Guthrie In the mat
ter, He replied that he would not Issue
the injunction without giving both sides
. chance TO be heard, and o hearing for
both side being precisely what they did
not want, they went to Judge McGin-
mis- with story OF injured Innocence,
which induced him TO issue the ipjpnc-
ton. The Issuing OF the rule for con,
tempt, so loudly boasted OF as a Demo,
cratic victory, merely brings the case up
so that the matter may be argued and
both sides fairly heard, as Judge Guthrie
at first proposed, This Is all there is nj
1t to date. Tomorrow also, it Is expect
ed, that argument will be heard In the
matter OF the Certiorari against the
County Court OF Kanawha. II both OF
these proceedings go against the Ilepub-
licans the result will not BIO serious, as
u affects the main question OF the cleo
ton, and therefore Republicans are not
at all disturbed, ~ G, D, H.,

LONDON, Jan, 7,-Artist Stott, who re,
sides principally in Paris, created hub,
bub Of excitement in the rooms of the
Hogarth Club Wednesday night by de-
nopnclng his brother artist Whistler as
a liar and a coward, Whistler gave very
prompt evidence OF his disapproval OF
this language, and, after administering
some rather severe blows on Stotts
head, the report says, kicked the Offend
or out OF tho room, Artist Whistler
subsequently, wrote a humorous let
ter to the club committee giving
the facts attending the caso and claiming
that the measures he had adopted would
prevent In the future members Of the
club being made subject to insults.
Rnmors OF duel between the two gen
tlemen have been prevalent, and It seems
to be well understood that Mr.. Whistler
is wlllingtogive satisfaction to Mr.. Stott.
Mr. Stotts grievance Is understood to be
that he was unfairly treated by Mr..
Whistler when that gentleman was pre-
sented to the Royal Society Of British
Artlsta.

Severe Struggle, In which he Is Knocked
on the Head,
Yesterday a pretty fly looking colored
man stepped into one Of the cars Of q
boarding train on the Heppaeld road
near Elm Grove, when all the workmen
who occupy II were absent, and only d
half grown boy was in. The colored
man alter some talk offered 10 show the
boy q neat trick, and ior this purpose got
the lad to tie him as securely as he could,
hand and loot, The man was free from
the rope in about three seconds. Then
he proposed II the boy would let him
tie him, he would show him how TO get
loose, The boy consented, The coloTed
man tied him last, hands and feet, and
then proceeded at his leisure 10 20
through the car aud load up with what
he wanted. He stole a suit Of clothes,
overcoat, watch, hat and shoes belong
ing to q colored man who works for the
company, putting them on, and with a
bland good bye, departed, leaving the
boy tied,
Some tlmeatter the local freight pulled
in beside the boarding train, and the
boys cries were heard by the crew, who
released him, Squire Brown, two con-
stables and q few citizens started out 10
find the thiei, accompanied by the col.
ored man who owned the stolen clothes,
They found him In q field, but when
they closed in Oh him he fought desper-
Rtely, and II was not'until I'm, Gonter

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Jan. 1.-THE
Democrats have been trying all day Ia
get a House caucus for the officers, aud
at midnight the best they can do is to
SGT asomething called a conference for
o'clock to.morrowtafternoon, when they
will feel each others pulses in the hope
Of discovering whether every Democratic
heart beats true to the caucus. A Sen
atorial caucus will be tried later.
The spirited fight for the Speakership
with some blood spilling, has at this
time q very Joe Woods cast. Samuels
Of Cabell, and Chew, OF Jefferson, are
making it so lively for each other that
they will probably chew each other up
and Woods wont have much trouble
with the leavings. Hamilton has made
strong fight for Clerk OF the House
and seems to have the pleasant Colone
Peyton down. Other Offices arc virtu
ally lost sight OF, except by those who
arc yearning for them. 4i.. t-
Republican Senators are not saylni
much about the caucus, so few have
been here and those who came in to
night having had little chance to com
pare views. All the Democratic talk
about Senators Carr and Minear and
woodward is nonsenCe, as these gentle
men are free TO say with independence
they will not ask Democrats whatto do
