Developments are expected.
The trouble between them Is under
stood 10 have arisen from series or
letters.
II was stated yesterday that some OF

ment on the part Of Mr.. Daniel, that
Mr.. ]. Austin Cabell in casting his vote
for Mr.. Martin acted in opposition to
the wishes OF his constituents.
They Would Not Talk.
When seen last night, Mr. Daniel had
nothing to say for publication. He simply
stated. that the serving Of the warrant
upon him was a complete surprise. Upon
this point he placed particular emphasis.
Throughout the correspondence he main
tain q Observation-Disclosures until yesterday
morning, when Niajor Poe thought that
an alteration was liable to occur be-
tween the two men, and at once order

Major Poe when asked about the affair
last night, declined TO talk upon the
ground that he did not know the details
that lead TO the trouble
When seen last night. Mr.. Cabell stated
that he had nothing TO say until after
the trial at the Police Court tomorrow.
He. however had no objection to the
publication Of the letters that passed
between himself and Mr.. Daniel, .f
the latter would consent.
The two young men are very promi-

Der of the law firm Of Caben & CabeIl.
He is one of the most prominent fig

The exact nature OF the letters could
not be learned. II Is stated. however,
upon the authority Of those believed TO
be in a position TO know that the last
letter written by Mr.. Cabell was Of a
very suggestive character. and that the
reply which was received yesterday. was
at least of such n nature as TO arouse
expectations on the part Of the authori-
ties. that IL the two men met there
would be some lively results.
Mr.. Cabell stated last night that the
rumor 10 the effect that he and Mr..
Daniel were prevented from coming 10
dangerous quarters I'm bank on Main
street yesterday. was untrue. He seemed
to be considerably excited. but took par
ticular pains to maintain noticeable
silence about the matter.
