beginning with May 8, 1884, when it was
announced that the great firm of Grant q
Ward had gone down and that the Marine
bank had closed its doors as n consequence,
are too recent to be entirely forgotten.
Ehe liabilities Of the firm were $14, 600, 900,

MILeANK ON HIS MUSCLE.
He Fought n Duel but Will Not Name
His Antagonist.

He Fought n Duel but Will Not Name
His Antagonist.
BRUSSELS April 3O.-Harry Vane Mil
bank is at the Grand hotel Mr. Milbank
refused at first to be interviewed concern
ing his last duel, but eventually admitted
that he had fought although he denied that
his antagonist was the Due de Morny He
would not give the details of the duel
Despite Mr.. Milbank's denial there are q
dozen persons in the Grand hotel who say
positively that the quarrel in the restaurant
was between Milbank and dc Morny, and
that they were the principals in the duel.
The landlord of the Grand asserts that he
witnessed part of the quarrel and knows
that de Morny was Mibank's adversary.
The contradictory reports are due, the
restaurant people say, to the fact that on
Tuesday Milbank had fist fight with an
unknown Frenchnan. The latter sneered
at England and said that Englishmen had
no proper idea of honor. Thereupon Mil
bank struck him on the nose. The French
man raised his arm but Milbauk struck him
a blow Oh the neck and knocked him down.
Cards were exchanged, but nobody seems to
have heard more of the affair 1t is rumored
however that the Frenchman was Aurelien
Scholl, the Due de Mornys comrade on the
court of honor. The yacht on which the
wounded duclist is said to have escaped
has not been traced to any port.
> A Paris dispatch says that the report that
the Duke de Morny had been wounded in
duel with Harry Nane Mlbunk, near
Ostend, is incorrect The duke is in Paris
the dispatch says, and claims that he has
had no quarrel with Milbank and that he
has no intention of fighting duel with him

WASHINGTON, April 30-Charles S. Ham
lin, secretary of the New England Tariff
Reform league, who is here, says he is
struck with the change that has come over
public sentiment in Washington in regard
to the presidential nomination. "When 1
was here in February many seemed to feel
that it might be better to nominate a so
called third candidate for the presidency,
but today 1t seems to be the general feeling
at Washington among public men that the
nomination of Grover Cleveland is newt
able. With Cleveland as a candidate and
with Governor Russell running again for the
goveruorship we can surely carry Massachu-
setts."
