TWAS NOT HISDUC-SHIP.
Morny had no Duel With Milbank-The
Fellow not Known.

BRUSSELS, April SO.-Many inquiries
have been made to ascertain if possible
who 1t was that fought the duel with the
Englishman Harry Vane Milbank. The
report printed in America that the other
principal in the affair was the Due d'Morny
has been effectuallv disposed Of. and there
was, so far as can be learned, no reason
why his name was connected with 1t, ex-
cepu that he was in way mixed up with
the Draytan-Borrowe matter.
The Independence Beige today says tnaU IL
has investigated the affair and learned
enough to be able to state that the Due de
Morny had nothing to do with the duel. 1t
adds that though the name OF Mr. Mil
banks opponent has not yet been made
pnblic. there is every reason to believe that
the fight grew out Of personal quarrel IN
which no one but Milbank and the other
man were concerned

A GOOD IDEA.
A Most Comprehensive Plan for the Ac-
commodatiOn of Worlds Fair Visitors.

A Most Comprehensive Plan for the Ac-
commodation of Worlds Fair Visitors.
OF all the plans for accommodating Wis
itors to Chicago during the Worlds Fair,
the following is the most comprehensive
and reasonable that has yet came under
our notice. How the company operates is
explained by Mr.. W. H. Wright Secreta-
~ OF the Columbian Fair Excursion Com
pany. This company is incorporated un-
der the laws of the State Of Illinois, was
organized for the purpose of enabling par
ties intending visit TO Chicago and the
Worlds Fair in 1898, 10 do so at reason
able cost, and to also secure accommoda-
lions in advance.
This company has large new hotels To-
Gated near the Fair Grounds, in the resi-.
dence'portiou of the city, insuring quiet and
responsibility Certificates are issued
through it's agents emitting the holder TO
first class transportation TO Chicago and
return, to admission TO the Fair seven days,
room and lodging at one Of the Company's
hotels and bus fare from railroad TO hotel
going and returning. The rate from
Wheeling is $685. of which s is paid when
the application is made and 800 is paid 10
the local bank on or before April 10, 1913.
This lattar sum of $50 can be paid in install
ments il desired This money is RENTED
by the local bank to the Hide and Leather
National Bank Of Chicago, who are the
trustees of the company and this money is
held by them as a trust fund to guarantee
the ful1llment of the company's contract.
Mr.. Wright has made a contract with
the City Bank OF Wheeling TO receive and
remit the payments, and also secured G. o.
Smith, the real estate agent as general
agent for Wheeling and four counties in
West Virginia.

National platforms Of the pemocratio

National platforms Of the Democratic
party.
2. That we heartily endorse as worthy
Of the support Of every good citizen Grover
Cleveland and Adlai E. Stevenson, the Ma
tional candidates of the Democratic party.
3. That the grand record Of the public
life Of Grover Cleveland, his honest, con-
sclentious administration Of public analrs.
his hatred ofemonopolies, his opposition TO
extravaganza in public expenditures, his de-
sire for the reform Of unjust and oppressive
tariff laws, command the warmest ap-
prevail
f. That we endorse the Democratic
State ticket as worthy the support of all
patriots having the welfare OF
our grand commonwealth st heart,
and particularly would we ask the support
of the people of Hon. ]. B. briggs OF Mon
roe county, our candidate for Judge OF the
Supreme Court, a jurist Of profound
learning and man whose integrity IS
without blemish.
5. That we commend the fidelity of our
Representative in Congress, Judge A. j..
Pearson, who has stood at his post while
others whom the people elected have de-
serted; that we approve his actions and
votes in Congress, and have the fullest con-
fidence in his strict Integrity and adher-
ence to principle.
6. That we condemn the avarice and dis
honesty of the monopolists, who have by
lavish use of money corrupted the ballot,
and placed their minions in Con-
gress and through them procured
the passage of the unfair and unjust Nc
Kinley tariff laws, which greatly enhance
their profits at the expense OF the consum-
ers, while they withhold from their en-
ployes the fair and just wages due them.
Z. That we strongly condemn the intro
duction and employment Of the Pinkerton
police or any similar association for the
purpose Of overawing wage-workers and
destroying labor organizations under the
plea Of protecting property.
8. That we especially oppose the tariff
on wool, which has ever had the tendency
TO decrease the price of wool and deterior.
ate the quality and increase the cost OF
clothing.
Hon. Ross J. Alexander, OF Bridge
port, was then called and responded In
his own peculiar and happy manner.
No other man in the district can make
a speech that will enthuse the Democ-
racy as Ross speeches do. He strikes
straight out from the shoulder, and
every blow counts. He paid a Rlo wing
tribute to Grover Cleveland and Adiat
SJeNenSOns anu pTdlSeu OuuRo L eaIsou
for his work in congress. The speech
was vociferouoly applauded throughout.
The convention was conceded to have
been one of the best district gatherings
that has been held here for years. The
hall was crowded to its utmost capac-
ity during the afternoon, and the pro-
ceedings demonstrated that the Demo
Gratis of the district were going to enter
the campaign with the determination to
win.
Among the newspaper men present
were w. H. Arnold, of the Cadiz Sentt-
mel; J. w. Lawler, of the Carrollton
Chronicle; W. S.. Hunter, Of the Steu-
