STODDARD IS RETAINED.
WILL DEFEND DIR. WRITTEN, WHO IS CHARGED WITH MURDER.

Contractor swayne Secured Bondsman- Has Been Sued for $1O,OOO by Contractor Joseph Lawrence-Another Suit May be Brought.
 Ex-Judge w. B. Stoddard has been retained as counsel for Dr. George E' Whitten, accused with pr. J. Edward Lee of murder in the second degree or causing the death of Maggie Schloss of Ansonia by criminal malpractice lie will be assisted in the case by Attorney A. D. Penney, also of this city.
 Drs. Whitten and Lee will be tried at the April term of the criminal superior court, but it has not yet been decided whether they will be tried separately or jointly. pr. Lee will be defended by Attorney Prentice w. Chase, and all though pr. Lee is still confined in Jail owing to his inability to secure the necessary $5,00O bonds to effect his re- lease, still he remains cheerful and says he hopes and expects within few days to secure bonds and be set at liberty
 It was said yesterday that there might be other arrests in connection with the case, but no one in position to know anything about it would give the names of any persons who might be under surveillance. It is also said that Real Estate Agent l.. B. Hinman, who gave bonds for Whitten's release, has been secured by collateral. Whitten IS at present in his home in Auburndale, Mass, but will be here again and pre- pare his defense with his attorneys be- fore the trial.
 Late yesterday afternoon Egbert L. Warmer of Center street qualified in the sum of $2,OO0 as bonds for Walter S. Swayne, the garbage contractor, and the latter was released from the custody of Deputy Sheriff Crockett. Yesterday morning the body of MT. Swayne was attached in a suit brought by Joseph Lawrence, another garbage contractor to recover $10000 damages. Lawrence alleges that Swayne connived with one Charles Spencer for the purpose of in turing and disgracing him in the eyes of the community, etc.
 It is furthermore alleged by the plain tiff that in May, 1894, Swayne spoke tc and in the hearing of one William Rice of New Haven the following words "Joe Lawrence and Farnham poisoned my hogs" meaning thereby to charge Lawrence with the crime of conspirine to destroy property belonging tC Swayne The suit is returnable to the February term of the superior court It was also said yesterday that Earn ham would probably bring suit, but III to late hour it had not been brought

A FAMOUS DUEL.

tive American of his epoch. When
the history of this country shall be
written by someone who has been
enough of a man among men to be a
wise weigher Of all kinds Of evidence
and who is possessed of that magma
tive power which enables a mind to
reincarnate itself amid the events and
personalities whose tendency and pur-
pose it aims to depict and whose mean
ings and motives it essays to explain,
it is probable that Andrew Jackson
and Abraham Lincoln, two children
of the people, born in poverty, will be
accounted not only the two most typ
cal Americans, but the largest and
noblest figures in our populous nation
al Pantheon.
Charles Dickinson was a Nashville
lawyer of some mark in his profession
and in politics, though chiefly as a
pistol shot. He considered himself
the best shot in the world. Perhaps
he was. But the pitcher that goes to
the well too often, says the proverb'
gets broken at last. Like most Ten
nesseeans of that erratic era, Dickln-
son drank hard at times, and, in his
cups, threw all discretion and decency
to the winds.
Among other unpleasant things, it
was reported to Jackson that Dickin-
son had alluded to the alleged iregu-
Iaritv or illegality of Jackson's mar
riage with Mrs. Rachel Robards, which
was, of course, a very sore point with
the general, who loved his excellent
wife devotedly.
Still, Jackson was not bloodtblrsty
to fight Dickinson. To that gentle
mans father-in-law he said:
q would fain have no quarrel. My
political enemies, l believe, are using
this young man as an instrument to
get me out of their way. l do not
wish to fight, but l will, to the death,
if crowded. Bid him pause in time.
The suasions of Dickinson father
in-law temporarily prevailed, and an
apology followed, but the smouldering
spark of hostility was famed into a
fame soon after.
Some reports of alleged remarks
concerning certain horse-racing and
betting transactions caused Dickinson
to repeat his insults and to say that II
ever such "cowardly cur as jack
son could be whipped or spurred into
meeting on "the field of honor he
would rid Tennessee and the country
of the "pestilent poltroon.
Dickinson about this time must have
been meditating an attack OF similar
nature TO the murderous onslaught
which the Benton brothers made on
the general years after, for he Dragged
that he was going to force fight OIL
Jackson.
Thus it began to be public opinion
that a duel must ensue, and jackson
finally challenged Dickinson, which
was exactly what the latter had plot
ted, because challenge gives the re-
ceiver the choice of weapons.
AS Dickinson's cavalcade went
along, stopping now and then at road
side taverns to bait their horses anc
refresh themselves, the hero of the
party gave numerous exhibitions of hi
pistol skill, hitting half dollars tosseC
in the air, and in one place, where
bit of string was hanging from tree
he shot off the lower half and sal(
with a savage laugh: SHOW that t.
General Jackson when he comes aloni
this way"
Far different was the temper OF tn
other party, the tall, gaunt, slender
stately soldier riding in front of hi

I've been thinking, said Overton,
"that perhaps it would be best for you
to let him fire first,
'You mean to receive his fire and
reserve mine"
Yes, general. If YOU should try
to fire simultaneously on the signal,
and lie should hit you a second before
you pull the trigger, that might spoil
your aim. Better let him fire hastily.
You take deliberate aim. Your will
can control your pain, even i: hit.
What think you?"
Il think you are right, said Jack
son, land I will do as you say
That night. at the inn where they
stopped near the chosen ground, Jack
son ate hearty supper, smoked his
corrcob pine and conducted himself
like an ordinary genial traveller, the
landlord however, divining his errand
and wishing him a safe return.
Remounting early next morning
tbev found themselves compelled to
swim their horses across the ford, as
no ferrvman was visible to convey
them. Into the open heart of pop
lar forest thew came and found Dick
inson with his second, surgeon and
friends awaiting them.
The usual civilities of polite blood
spiIling were duly performed, coins
were tossed for choice of position,
which was won by Dickinson's second,
and the Giving Of the word, which he
asnaciaIIy valued. fell to General Over
