MMOUNT CLEMENS. Mich, Aug. 25.-
Jim Hall, the pugilist, and "Parson''
Davies, who is stopping at the Avery
House, got into a quarrel in the bar
room at II o'clock p. M. After word
or two Hall struck vigorously at Davies
with bottle. His arm was caught by
a by-stander, when he repeated the blow
and Davies grabbed lemon-knife lying
on the bar, lodged Halls blow and
l1nged at him with the knife, striking
him in the throat and cutting a terrible
cash from the chin to the ear on the
right side and narrowly missing the
jugular vein. The two were then separ-
ated. "You've done me, Charlie, but
stay by me-" said Hall when struck.
The room after the fracas looked like a
slaughter house. everything in it being
covered with blood. Hall will recover.
He is considered to blame in the matter,
Davies having acted in self-defense.

The Finding of Bodies in New
YOrk's Fatal Building Still
Goes On.
Twenty Have Been Positively Inden-
titled and Eighty-Eight are
Still Missing,
Indicating That at Least 1872 Lives
Have Been Lost in the Ter
rible Tragedy.

New YORK, Aug. 25.-Up to 9:3O p.
m. two more bodies had been taken from
the ruins, making thirty-four in all thus
far recovered. Two more of the bodies
have been identified. They are Henry
Denim, aged 16, and Conrad Schmidt,
Of 1875 East One Hundred and Eighth
street.
Late in the night the workmen, in re-
moving some timbers, revealed the arm,
head and breast of woman. She lay
on her back, and a large press crushed
her down with its weight and rendered
the removal of the body impossible with
out the use of derrick. twas allowed
to remain where found until morning.
A canvass was mercifully thrown over
the face, which showed no sign of suffer-
ing, she probably having been stunned
before the huge press crushed out her
life.
Tho Thirty-fourth Recovered.
An 1890 a. m. the sum total of the
bodies recovered from the ruins was
thirty-four. The number positively
identified is twenty and the number re-
ported missing eighty-eight. This
would indicate that 1879 persons lost
their lives by the collapse of the build
ing. The worst part Of the tragedy is
yet to come, as evidenced by fearful
stencil which indicates unknown horrors
and an almost inestimable number of
bodies buried beneath the weights of
rubbish and machinery.
At midnight terrible stencil came
from that part of the ruins occupied by
the restaurant. 1t is probably that this
spot will add fearful tale even to the
present estimates of the horror.
EARLY in the emorning small foot, ankle
and part of a leg, probably girls or a
boys was recovered. The members
was badly burned and looked as though
it had been burned away from the body.
The workmen are fast clearing away
the debris and it seems highly possible
that great number of bodies will be
recovered before daylight.
At ! 80 q. IN. another body was found.
1t was that of a man about thirty years
old. It was found in G sitting posture
with the right hand pressed to the
heart

He Thinks the Democrats VIII Run
Harden For Congress.
WASHINGTON, Aug. rs. - Senator
Hansbrough, of North Dakota, is in
Washington to look after the his state
matters in the departments. He would
like to settle the difficulty in the Fargo
postofdce, but in the absence of both the
president and the postmaster general,
no conclusion will be reached. He
talks about North Dakota crops, and as
serts that the harvesting has swallowed
up politics in the Northwest. On the
successor of the late John R. Gamble,
Senator Hansbrough said: "There will
be a bitter fight in the South Dakota
congressional district, where a successor
to the late Congressman John R. Gam
BILE is soon to be elected. The Repub-
icans will probably nominate CANDLES
brother, an attorney at Yankton. A
farmer named Harden, who sy1npa-
thizes to certain extent with the AL
lance following, will be the choice of
the Democrats. The district is Repub-
lican, but the Harden crowd will make
the Republicans work hard, as the AL
lance men and Democrats will probably
work together. Harden's farm is heav-
lily mortgaged, and that will be one
great point that will be raised in his
favor"

Darkness Stops a Bloody Battle Be-
fore Any Decisive Result
H.. Is Reached.
The Tired Warriors Resting for the
Final Bout for Supre-
macy.
England's Sympathy Is Outspoken
and General in Favor of the
Insurgents.

u New York., Aug. 25.-The Herald
Shas further Valparaiso cables, under date
sAugt. "a, relative to the battle of the
congressional and Bamacediat forces,
thus:
Darkness stopped the battle of Vina
del Mar beach opposite the city, which
ragged hotly all day before any decisive
result was reached. and, like tired gladia-
tors, the contesting armies rested and
worked hard to get themselves in the
best possible condition for the final bout
which must soon decide the mastery of
Chill.
Balmaceda's line Of defense strongly
fortified, and was under the range Of
the guns from Fort Callao. While many
of his troops were raw recruits, there
was leaven Of veterans among them.
Time after time the rebels dashed
against the lines Of the government
troops, only to be repulsed with great
bloodshed. They were not the only
sufferers, however, for their artillery
played with telling effect on the enemy,
and their rifles were not useless in their
hands,
There was little regret on either side
when darkness came down and stopped
the bloody work. When morning broke
it was expected the fight would be re-
sumed. Both armies had suffered
severely however and neither appeared
to be in position to assume the offensive,
and practical truce, with no fighting
was the result. Neither side has been
idle, however, during the day. Scout
ing parties from the insurgent armies
have been securing the country for sup
plies, and one Of them cut the railroad
to Santiago at Salto.
The government force have been
strengthening their lines and maneuver-
ing to get into a position which will
preclude any successful attempt on the
part Of the enemy to get into the rear Of
the city of Valparaiso. 1t is generally
believed that Gen. Canto, the general
commanding the rebels, will attempt a
flank movement when he resumes oper-
ations, and this the Balmacedists are
doing everything in their power to fus-
trate. Having been unable by yester-
days fight to capture the village of Vina
Del Mar and isolate Fort Callao and
thus capture it, he would naturally at
tempt this flank movement. That he
will be able to do so without harder
fighting than even that of Friday or
Sunday, if at all, is not to be thought
of.

FlFTY-TWO HAVE BEEN FOUND,
TwentyEigllt Victims of the New Yor

Twent Twilight Victims of the New York
Disaster at the Morgue.
New YORK, Aug. 26.-At midnight the
stencil emanating from the place where
the cellar formerly was, was so sicken-
ing that Sergeant Hawley expressed it as
his opinion that most CHASTITY revelations
would be brought to light there where
the supposed bodies Of twenty women,
who were in their dressing room at the
time Of the disaster and none of whom
had been heard of since. Up to $40 one
more had been found, that of man ter
ribly mangled in the shadow of huge
printing press. Shortly after that the
thirty-seventh body was found. It was
that of man about 80 years of age.
All those bodies were sent to the
morgue. By this time the stencil was
almost unbearable, and as day dawned
the greater light revealed four more
bodies anatomically mangled to such
condition that the limbs and trunks Of
the bodies seemed to be separated and
heaped mercilessly one upon the other.
AT 5:45 the disembowelled body of
man was found. He was unrecogniza-
Die. AT a. m, thirty eight bodies had
been taken out and four more were in
sight in the ruins.
Shortly after noon the four bodies in
sight at a. IN. were taken out making
forty-two in all. It is believed that at
least eighty more bodies yet remain in
the wreck
Two more bodies were taken from the
ruins at II o'clock, bringing the number
recovered up to fifty. Another of the
Italians was detected searching a coat
which he found in the ruins. He was
hustled off to jail.
At 80 a. m. two more bodies were
brought to view but the worklnen will
not be able to remove them for several
honrs as they are wedged in with tim
ber. This makes ffty-two bodies thus
far discovered in the ruins. Twenty
eight bodies were at the morgue at a.
