Fox and Borrows Fired Two Shots. pus
Neither Received n Scratch.

BRUssz1s. April 25.-The much-talked-of
duel between Edward Fox aud Hallete
Alsop Borrowe took place Saturday after
noon on the seashore at Nisuport Bains:
near Ostend. William Il. Bacon, Jr., OF
Boston. acted a. second for Fox, and Harry
Nane Millbank as second for borrowe.
1t was arranged between the seconds that
their principals should each fire two shots
at twelve PAGES. and this programme was
carried out. The weapons used wero
duelling pistols of forty-fve cslibre.
When the word was given the two
men fred simultaneously. but neither
shot took effect. although the ball from
FOxs pistol passed close 10 burrowes
head. Tho pistols were then reloaded by
the seconds and handed to the dueiiists. ootn
OF whom fired promptly when the word was
given. This time Borrowes bullet pierceo ms
antagonists coat in the region OF the waist out
Fox escaped unhurt. The seconds. III ec-
cordance with the conditions previously
made, then declared the duel ended.
No reconciliation took place after the con-
test and the duellists lett the ground With
out having spoken TO each other: Ihe prin.
cipals and seconds afterward took the boat NJ
Ostend to return to London.
Nobody in the town believes for one mo-
ment that any serious harm WAS intended.
The event is generally designated by Ameri-
cans in London as the fake duel Some
even think the whole story was concocted
and that no shots were fired. But IT IL the
general impression that the triggers were
pulled as the result OF a mutual understand
ing that nobody should be hurt.
