 of the Difficulty

NASHVILLE Tenn, April 9.--lIon. James Phelan, member of Congress from the Tenth District of this State, has sent Col. John NJ. Fleming. editor of the Knoxville Sentinel, a challenge, which Col Fleming has declined to accept. The communica tion of the Congressman to the editor was wired from Washington, D. C., and Col. Fleming's reply was published this after noon in the Sentinel The challenge is briefly worded, but exceedingly emphatic. The answer Is lengthy and couched in sar- castle language, and decided sensation has been caused by it's publication. Mir Phelan. besides representing his district in Congress, is also the proprietor of the Memphis Avalanche. Col. Fleming is editor in-chief of the Sentinel, and one of the best known men in Tennessee. Mir Phelan, some time ago. wrote and published history of the State Col. Fleming, in a series of vigorous articles, which appeared in the Sentinel, criticised tho work Mir Phelan, in letter to the Memphis Com mercial, replied to stricturcs made by the Commercial, aud in the course of his re- marks spoke of Col Fleming as "the half. wittcd editor of tho Knoxville Sentinel who wrote to me for an advance copy of my book, which was not furnished, and who, for his life, does not know the differ efrrc between fact and an opinion"
 Col. Fleming promptly replied in an article. in which hc declared that he had never had communication of any kind with Mr. Phelan It appears that on Sunday porning last Col. Fleming, who was i'll at his hotel at tho time, received the appended telegram from Mir Phelan

NEWPORT, R. l., April 5.--The supple mentary elections to day for First and Fourth Representatives resulted in the election of two Democrats William r. Clarke by a majority, and Andrew K.

If the House of Representatives is Democratic, as it possibly is. tho Democrats probably will not raise the issue, but the Republicans may appeal to the Supreme Court to decide as to their legality,
