CHALLENGED HIS WIFE.
A Drink Crazed Husbands Duel With His
Wife In Buffalo.

A Drink Crazed Husbands Duel With His
Wife In Buffalo.
BUFFALO, April 9.-George Grawitz came
weeks. He ate his supper in silence and
then went up stairs into the garnet. His
wife heard him throwing things about
but paid no attention to him.
About half an hour later Grawitz came
down stairs with two old fashioned shot
guns They were loaded to the muzzle
and Grawitz was ugly. He made for his
wife, and handing one of the guns to her
he shouted, Now shoot or get shot!' The
poor woman took the weapon and stag
gered round the room, vainly attempting
to get away.
She did not know how to handle the
gun and it went off in her hand. The
charge entered the ceiling, showering plas-
ter on the couple. The drink crazed man
took this as an acceptance of the challenge
for duel, and raising the gun to his shout
der he took deliberate aim at his wife. AL
most paralyzed with fear the woman saw
only one avenue of escape. 1t was a des
perate chance but she took it. She made
a sudden jump just as he fired and went
through a window, carrying glass and
sash with her Grawitz fired second shot
through the wiAdow, but it did not take
effect.
Mrs. Grawitz dragged herself to the
house of neighbor. who cared for hel
while the police were sent for. 1t took
three policemen to subdue Grawitz. He
was locked up on a charge of assault il
the first degree.

araguan Interference.

NEW ORLEANS, April "a correspond
ent in Bluefields says that the blockade
between Blueields and Rama, which has
existed since the assassination of Wilson.
was broken when five steamships went UP
the river.
There are six Nicaraguans only in Blue
fields, who are keeping the eH,ire commu-
nifty in a deplorable state of feverish eX-
element. Were it not for the suffering of
the poor people the Americans here would
enjoy the nipping game played by Charles
A. Lacayo. Without backing of any de,
scription from Nicaragua and with only
five henchmen he has drawn about $4,000
soils from the business men of Bluefelds.
There has been much suffering among the
poor people during the last few days. The
people are hoping that with the arrival of
a United States warship they will not be
again subjected to further outrage and
cruel hardships.
A public meeting was held on the even
ing of March 2S. 1t was addressed by Cap
tain John McCafferty, who said in cOnclu-
sion: Il am here with you to protest
against the presence of these Nicaraguans,
who have broken the peacea'f this com
munity. They have no legal right to be
here and therefore you would be justified
were they rounded and shot'

the court will accept their promises to
leave town and have officers detailed to
see that they keep their word since it is

Portable except for the ignominy of con-

the band. may find himself in more seri-
Gus trouble than his followers. There is
an old law on the statute books, which
was passed in 1880 and has never been re-
pealed. which makes it an offense to bring
into the District of Columbia any desti-
tute people who are likely to become pub
lie charges, with penalty of from SIS to
$50 fine for each offense.
The police authorities are considering
the stability of bringing charge of
violating this law against the leader, in
which case his fines, with the alternative
wOrkhouse imprisonment, would amount
to very heavy punishment.
The same charge may be brought against
General CoXey if disaster does not over
take the army of the commonweal before
it completes its itinerary. OF course the
vagrancy act may be brought into applica-
ton against his followers, and besides
there are two other laws which it is the
avowed and advertised purpose of the
CoXeyites to break.
One is the act of congress regulating the
use of the capitol grounds, which forbids
in stringent terms any gathering, demon
stration or parade, the making of any ora
ton or use of threatening language or the
display of any banner or device to attract
attention. The other is a local law which
forbids men to cOngregate on the steps of
any public or private building 1t rests

TILLMAN IN A RAGE.
He Attacks the President and the "lSloo
Sucking Gold Thieves


Sucking Gold Thieves"
COLUMBIA. :. c., April Ex-Governor
Tillman, in an interview given at the en-
ecutive mansion here, gave vent to his
pent up emotions and political prejudices
as follows:
YES, they call me .. Populist. I will
tell them that am tlle truest representa-
tive of Jeffersonian Democracy in the land
in American politics today. Let me tell
you that don't see anything ahead now
but for the southern Democrats to com
bine their forces with the western Popu
lists and go into the next national cam,
paign on new party lines The northwest
ern Democrats and Republicans are now
together. 1t is a combination against the
moneyed interests"
The governor then, turning suddenly
and in q somewhat excited and very forci
BILE manner, said
II despise Cleveland and his mugwumps
He is no better than the rankest Repub-
lican. He has DESTROYED the Democratic
party. The south and west will be forced
to unite and have complete reorganiza-
ton of party lines. The people who are
afraid of the negro and other questions
will have to cast asid, their fears on those
scores and come together on the one line
of fighting the money com bination. Cleve-
land has been working under the dictation
of the New York bankers and bargaining
with them in the matter of the issue of
bonds
He promised the banks, if they would
take them there would be no more legls-
ton ON the silver question by this con-
gress. Congress passed the seigniorage
act, and he vetoed the bill, indicating
plainly the nature of his bargain with the
hnn hn A. &c q
of robbery that he ought to be impeached
for it. 1t is a shame and a disgrace. The
idea of this great government having to
beg lot of ShylOcks' assistance is so out
rageOuS that there is not any language too
strong in which to characterize it.
"Cleveland is owned body and soul by
these scOundrels. He secured his nomina-
ton at Chicago through the influence of n
subsidized press, and what votes he lacked
there, after eXhausting such means, he
bought with promises of patronage which
promises have since been redeemed and
the goods have been delivered. His at
tempt to brow beat and debauch the sena-
tors and representatives was outrageous in
the extreme. If these cowardly congress
men up there had any appreciation of their
duty to their constituents at home, they
would impeach him.
''If the silver congressman will issue Il
call for silver convention and carry the
war into Africa we will teach those blood
sucking gold thieves a lesson in politics
such as they have not had since jackson s
campaign against the banks. The farmers
of the south and west will move onward
in solid body and demand legislation
that will give them relief from the grind
ing poverty produced by cent cotton and
30 cent wheat"

by the congregation of people upon the
