. Fatal Street Duel,

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 15.-At New
berg, Hall county, II double fatal street
duel occurred yesterday afternoon be-
tween Robert Turpin and Glen Duskin,
prominent young men of this town. They
had qu.rreled Saturday afternoon, but
parted with the understanding that each
should arm himself and shoot on sight
Yesterday afternoon about 4 O'Clock they
came together in the center of town when
the firing began and each emptied his
revolver. Duskin fell MORALLY wounded
with four balls in his body. The last
shot from his pistol, after he had fallen
to his knees, struck Turpin in the fore
head, killing him instantly.

ericsson SPRINGS, Pa, Sept. 15.-1t has
been arranged that the river and harbor
bill shall be forwarded to the president
Immediately on its being signed by the
speaker of the house. The president is
already familiar with It's provisions, hav-
ing brought a copy of it with him to
Cresson Springs, with the report from the
chief of engineers of the army in regard
to the condition and necessity of various
public Improvements provided for. 1t is
therefore not likely that the public will
be kept in ignorance many more days in
regard to that measure. Speculation is
about evenly divided as to its prospects.
Those who are sure of its veto are about
as numerous az those who are confident
of its approval. The president and his
private secretary, however, are strictly
non .committal IN the point
There is reason to believe that the
president is considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of calling an extra session of congress.
It Ia known that several prominent re-
publicans have advised such a course
with the view to an earlier consideration
of the federal election bill. Persons who
have talked with the president on the
subject say that he will certainly econ
yeue congress if certain pending meas
ures In which he takes great interest are
not disposed Of at this session. These
include the anti lottery bills, supreme
court bill and the labor bill, now
in the senate, and the postal ship.
ping bill now awaiting the action Of
the house. The president is known to be
especially interested in the passage Of
the election bill and would probably fee
justified in calling an extra session TO
the consideration Of it, and such ouhel
important measures now pending as may
not be disposed of at this session.

THE PRESIDENT UNEASY.

ericsson SPRINGS, Sept. i2.-That the
president is taking a deep interest in the
financial situation is shown by the fact
that he devoted nearly two hours this
afternoon to telegraphic correspondence
with Secretary Window at Williams
town, Mass, and Assistant Secretarys
Bachelor and Noelton at Washington,
as to the best means of relieving the
present s~tringency In the money market.
The telegraph Office is located in a
strong frame building e the executive
cottage. 1t was formerly used by colored
people as a place of worship and it was
there that the president and Halford
transacted their business this afternoon.
One of the results of the conference was
an order for the prepayment of interest
%aggregating $4,000, 900 in currency skies
and for advances in the rate for four per
cent bonds to 1926. Another question
considered wa the proprity of suggest
ing The extension of bonded percents
under the new tariff law, but no conclu
sion was reached on this point. The
latest advices received by the president
were to the effect that money was easier
at the close Of business and that the out
look was more favorable.

FATHER RusK AIRS HIS OPINIONS.

Secretary Rusk in an inveryiew with a
Post reporter today upon the excitement
in the grain market caused by feai of
short crops said: "Of course the fact
that there was u slight falling of in the
quantity of crops had effect upon the
market. The tendency has been upward
as far as prices are concerned, on all
cereals. I attribute the increase to 9TH
er causes than shortage i'll crops. The
statement that this had been the lightest
year for twenty years l cannot agree
| with. Tais may he the case with barley
crops which is exceptionally short. The
shortage in the yield of some of the GER
eaIs this year was anticipated in the June
report.
The facts are that all cereals have been
merely moderate in their yield and the
increase in price is the only indication
that the tendency is that way. Grain OPP
orators watch u bulletins very closely
and they no doubt make their calcula-
| tions or basis shown in them. SO far as
the information that we receive is con
cerned it comes from a thousand differ
ent sources, their object Is to prevent
great fluctuations.
You do not apprehend any serious
squeezed"
Why not a bit. The government re
port have considerable influence il
checking any complicated corner ant
eve tybody is enabled to know the pre-
else condition of crops as they prevei
fuctuation rather than increase. Thu
more frequent they are made the NOR
gradual and pacific the condition be
comes.
Is 1t q fact that the report IS the mos
unfavorshle one ever issued? was asked
r Not at all. The cotton crop is extra
ordinarily good. Oats are probably lowe
than they have been for 20 years, but tina
is the only weak point with the exceI
t ton of the barley crop which was yer
| poor last year.

the PRESIDENT IS SOMEWHAT UNEASY.
The Enormous Demand for Money to
Pay Duties When the Tariff
Bill Goes into Effect
Causes the Finan-
cial Fright.
The Great Industries Are Reported
AS Doing Well, With In
creasing Demand for
Their Products.

New YORK, Sept. 12.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says: The
past week has fully justified those who
warning that the monetary ease
ment caused by the treasury disburse-
ment could be but temporary. The mar
kst here has been tight and the same
report ON from almost everywhere.
The immediate fright ut New York was
about supposed enormous demands for
payment of duties, if the tariff should go
into effect in October. The fact as Off
cialIy reported is that less than $9,00O,O00
would pay the full duties on all goods in
warehouses on which rates have been in
creased, but no IL supposes any quaint
ty would be taken out and meanwhile the
treasury is now offering to pay out $780,
100000 for ~ per cents and $23,000,0OO
more in prepayment of the inter
est on AZ per cents. Ii there
were no speculative tendency interfering
with the free movement of crops, com
mercial bills would soon draw money
from abroad, but u%nfavorable crop re-
ports causes higher prices for staples,
and prior to that, exports had been very
light, prices here being too high for for
eign markets. Bread stutfs had not been
strong until Thursday. The latest in
formation is that the yield is generally
more favorable, but the government re-
port of the condition of crops for Sep
teptember enabled spectators to pro-
duce shear panic" and the net advance
for the week has been four cents in
wheat On sales of 100000 bushels, five
cents in corn on sales of 100000 bush
els and four cents in rates.
Lard and hogs were also stronger;
others not much change.
The great Industries are doing
we'll. The weekly output of iron
rises again to 171,766 tons, against
1854, 1893 August /, and 134,06S,
tons u year ago. The market for pig
iron is weaker, though no recorded
change in prices is seen. Bar plate,
structural, sheet and wrought pipe mills
are all crowded with work and full and
occasionally advancing prices. Greater
activity in wooden manufactures in sales
and the speedy passage of the
tariff bill is anticipated as a basis fol
larger operations. Activity in dry goods
is everywhere increased while the de.
mand is large and general. The Goa,
trade had been nothing to speak of and
the demand here is below expectations
Minor metals are strong, though for cop
per the present demand is light. II
short there is every reason to look for ;
large and prosperous business if the pres
sure in money markets is me and tina

THE GEM OF CASCADE.

From Minot to Great Falls is a vast up
land expanse which is very sparsely set
tied, but which will some day support a
population large enough to make a ma
ton. The sleeping cars, which are built
on the Pullman model and owned by the
railroad company, are of the best, the
meals supplied in the dining cars are ex-
~cellent, and the track is equal to any in
the west.
Great Falls, the gem city OF Cascade
county, is one of the located towns in
Montana and is 4 forging ahead at a great
rate. 1t is a welcome sight to the travel
er after the long stretch of barren up
lands, and the scenery from there on to
Helena, along Colonel Broadwater's Mon
tana Central, is a decided relief to the
eye. There is probably no bit of scenery
in the mountains more attractive than
that of the canyons along the Missouri
and Prickly Pear. Then comes the mag
n~iicent valley of the Prickly Pear. upon
which the city of Helena fronts, anG
which possesses possibilities which few
of her people have as yettairly imagined

Along the Great Northern.

Under the sagacious management OF j
j. Hill the Great Northern railroad has,
in a very short time, become one of the
popular routes in the northwest, and from
st. Paul and Minneapolis to the Pacific
coast. The company is progressing rap
idly with its extension from Assinabcine
towards the coast, and it has a service
which compares favorably with the very
best in the country to all points west.
On leaving the great twin cities (whose
census wrangle may be called %insensate)
the world famed wheat region is trayersed
and many large and thriving towns are
visited. Gradually the places of human
habitation become fewer and smaller, and
the approach to the wilderness of North
Dakota is evidenced by vacant rolling
prairies that remind oneDf he sea, and
by the frequent appearance of wild
ducks, brant and other game birds in i'm
mense numbers. 1t is clear that game OF
all kinds must be plentiful in the region,
and the large number Of cowboys and
| cattle men on the train who begin to de-
bark at the various stations where only
shanty or two is in sight, indicates that il
is the realm of big focks and herds.

Orinin of Gerrymnnder.

CHICAGO, November 4.-EdtOr 0f The Chi
caqo Triltine:-After / voted to-day gen.
tleman remarked that if the Democrats
elected majority Of the Representatives
and Senators they would gerrymander the
State as the Democrats of Ohio did. An
other gentleman asked him what was the
origin Of the word gerrymander. Although
four intelligent men were in the party not
one OF us could tell the origin. What was
it? Four VOTERS.
How often this has been explained
Flbridge Gerry was elected Governor OF
Massachusetts, by Jeffersonian Republicans
III 1910. The legislators of the same po-
litical school redistricted the State IN the
interest Of their party. After the redis-
tricting several politicians, 50 the story
goes, were looking at the map, which was
curious political construction. one OF
them remarked. in answer 90 an inquiry,
that it looked like a salamander," refer
ring to the manner in which the counties
were joined together for congresslonal
purposes, so that combined they did look
like a salamander. No. replied another
one; lit is not a salamander; 1t Is a Gerry
mander.n The word from constant use
found its way into Webster's Dictionary.
A singular thing about il is that Governor
Gerry was opposed TO the redistricting
scheme as carried out by his party. In
pronouncing the word the initial letter
should be given hard sound, ana not the
sound OF j In Jerry.l
