DE MORES HIT DREYFUS,
But For a Lucky Fall of His Arm He
Would Have Killed Him.

The handsome young Marquis de Mores
winged NJ. Dreyfus in their duel at Comines.
Brussels, yesterday. The Herald correspondent
cav the affair and gives a graphic account. At
the word of command NJ. Dreyfus fired and
missed. The marquis aimed more deliberately
and sent ball into the arm of his opponent
just above the elbow joint. The wound is pain
full, but not serious Had it not been for the
fact that NJ. Dreyfus dropped his arm immedi-
ately on firing it is very probable that he would
have received the bullet in his heart NJ Drey-
fus, in feverish condition, with his arm ban
daged and greatly swollen, is now lying at
Lille, where he will remain until the doctors
allow him to return to Paris. M. de Mores, ac-
companled by his seconds. reached Paris yes
terday evening in time for dinner.
The passage i'll La National which caused the
duel is headed ''The Daughters OF Judea and
Sons of Knights" The following is the part re-
fering to Mores Il wish to say the last word
about the meeting at Neullly. A certain Mar
quis de Mores there gave vent to the cry Of
'Gaul for the Gauls.' Now it happens that this
full-blooded Gaul has Spanish title. i, the son
OF the duke of Vallombrosa, an italian title
which rhymes with bankruptcy, and, if we are
rightly informed. he married a Miss Hoffman
Of New York, who is neither Christian nor
Gaul."
The article continues with list of French
men who have married into the world of the
Rothschilds. and thus concludes:
This enumeration is sufficient to prove that
noble gentlemen of the noble Faubourgs know
what they are about ill their mesailiances,
especially when they have solid reasons for
these mesallances. If they take our daughters
they don't take them, in the words of
Shakespeare. Naked though many would well
be worth it. But that is II question between
themselves and their conscienccs. But at least
they should show some decency. They take
the daughters and the money, but they don't
wipe the boots which were paid for with a
dowery or a fathers gray hairs. That is the
behavior of fancy men,"

A New German Minister.

Workmen in Germany are much gratified at
the emperors selection of Freiherr Won Ber-
lepsch as minister of commerce and industry
in succession to Prince Bismarck, resigned.
The new minister during the great coal strikes
in the Rhensh districts last summer proved a
good friend to the poor miners, and he was
almost their only champion in high places
But for him the military would have treated the
strikers rebels, and it was through his tact
and energy that the strike was finally brought
to an end. The emperor has had several con-
ferences with Berlepsch, and invited him to
supper the other night. The immediate result
is expected to be that the mining department
will be separated from the ministry Of public
works and placed under the control Of the
ministrY of commerce.

London Socialists at War Among Them

The split in the ranks of the London social
lists was emphasized at a public meeting held
in Southwark hall Saturday, in support of the
eight-hour movement. One attraction was q
promised speech by Henry Champion, once al
almost an anarchist, butnow more moderate So
calist and editor of weekly newspaper, the La
Dor E{ector. thousand socialists packed the hall
but they would not listen to Champion, who
was denounced as traitor and tory pensioner.
Champion tried to defend his conduct but
beginning with the admission that he was an
intimate friend of one Mailman Barry, a no.
torious tory agent and wire puller, he was
howled down and narrowly escaped personal
violence. Two or three years ago Champion
influence among British socialists was almost
paramount. He was formerly an officer in
her majesty's artillery, and is an able, although
not very strong-headed, man. To his infiu-
ence is attributed the secession Of John Burns
from the ranks of the extreme socialists.
