LONDON. Apr!l 29.-The duel fought by
Harry Vane Milbark at Ostend yesterday has
no connection with the Borrowe-Drayton
affair. Mibnnk's opponent was not the Due
de Morpy. as has been reported. Milbank.
who returned to Brussels Immediately nfter
the duel last evening. informed q Sun reporter
at the Grand Hotel to-day that no was under
promise not to give the naune OF his opponent
or his seconds, but stated that no has not seen
Do Morny since his tMilbank's) return from
America. and that lie had not had any COM
municntion with him.
A Sun reporter also cav the Due de Morny
in Paris. apparently not suffering from any
recent wound. De Morny said that he had
not fought with Milbnnk and did not appre-
bend hostile meeting with him.
Tho duel was brought about by cnuses that
have no connection with the Borrowe- Drayton
affair. After tho meeting between Fox and
Borrowe at Nieuport, on Saturday. MilbRnk
went to Brussels. the othors going on from
Ostend to London and put UP at the Grand
Hotel. On Monday he dined In the hotel cafe.
The story ut tho hotel is that near his table sat
two Trenchmen Mt another table who spent
most Of their time during dinner making in
sulting remarks about Englishmen. which
were obviously intended for Milbank's ears.
Ho paid no attention to them until they came
out ofthe cafe. when he met them in the court
yard OF the hotel and slapped the face Of one Of
them.
The result was challenge and . meeting
Of the two ut Nieuport on the identical spot
where Fox and Borrowe exchanged shots last
Saturday. The conditions were tho same as
on that occasion. There were also two shots
at twelve PAGES. SEilbank shot his opponent
through the hip at tho nrst fire. and he was
carried at once TO n yacht owned by friend
that lay Of the coast. accompanied by his sur
ceon and seconds.
Milbank and his seconds. De rEstranee and
Tournier. Belgian gentlemen. returned at
once to Brussels. 1t is not known how seri-
ously the wounded man is injured. as no re-
port has been received as yet from tho yacht.
which sailed toward the French coast. The
surgeon feared. however. after his first inspec-
tion Of the wound. that 1t was very dangerous.
