Wordy War lBetwse cen Senator 7TIllman
and Err. Gary Nearly Ends in Fight
COLUMBIA, s. c., Oct, 23.-To-night
the convention was enlivened by hot
war OF words between Senator Tillman
and Frank B. Gary, delegate from
Abbeville county, during which the lie
was passed and it was expectedthat the
two men would come to blows imme-
diatelY after adjournment which took
place at midnight.
Senator Tillmsn is firm advocate of
forming new counties while Mr.. Gary is
not. Senator Tillman has been haunting
Mr. Gary With forming unholy alliances,
politically, to defeat new counties,
though no never said exactly what they
were.
Tonight Mr.. Gary said that it ILL
became b. r. Tillman to taunt anyone
with forming such alliances. He him
self had entered into secret combine-
ton to rush three new counties through
the convention and 1t came with poor
grace from man like him to be throw
ing such things into the faces of othe r
mem bers.
Senator Tillman got very much ex-
cited and resented the imputntion
against his honor and honesty. He said
he did not want to have personal diff .
entity with the gentleman or to break
friendly relations, but ha could not sit
quietly by when such an untruth was
uttered.
Mr.. Gary replied that parliamentary
usages and the respect he had for the
convention, prevented him from resent
ing then the words used by Senator
Tillman, but he would hold him per
sonally responsible outside. Mr.. Gary
was very mad, and he is man of great
courage and meant what he said
The convention was in an intense
state of excitement. Senator Tillman
made no reply but sat quietly in his
scat, though it could be seen that he
was much wrought up. Before adjourn
ment friends began to try to settle the
matter and avoid difficulty, which
they succeeded in doing
After the convention both gentlemen
met and mutual explanations were
made. Mr.. Gary misinterpreted come

THE DuERANr MURDER TRIAL.
Sensational Testimony introduced Yester-
day by tho Prosecution.


day by the Prosecution.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23.-After a Bit
ter legal struggle, lasting three months,
the testimony in the trial of .Theodo
Durrant Is all in and tomorrow the
argument will begin. When court ad-
journed this afternoon District ATTORNEY
Barnes announced that though he would
not formally close the case for the peo-
pie to-day he would undoubtedly do so
the first thing tomorrow.
Miss Carrie Cunningham, newspaper
reporter, who visited Durrsns at the
prison frequently, testified that Durrant
told her he saw Blanche Lamont on the
second floor of the belfry where she was
murdered. While engaged in fixing q
sunburner, Miss Cunningham said he
told her, he heard suspicious noise in
the belfry which attracted his attention.
He crept along the ceiling OF the church
until he came to o belfry casing, where
he looked through q crack and saw Miss
Lamont.
Miss Cunningham testimony was OBJ
tanned only after great mum Der of OBJ
jections made by the defense had been
argued and ruled upon. An effort was
also made to secure statement from
the witness with regard to an alleged
confession by Durrant, but the court
sustained an objection to the question.
She said she promised Durrant she
would not publish anything he told her
and she kept her word. Only two wit
nesses besides Miss Cunningham were
examined to-day. Both were physicians.
Their testimony was important from the
fact that 1t showed that Durrant did not
have the appearance of one who had
been partly asphyxiated when he met
Organist King in the church on the
afternoon of April 3.
King testified that Durrant was pale
and trembling when he saw him. When
on the stand the prisoner corroborated
Kings testimony. Doctors May aud
Rosenstein, who were examined, testi-
fed that the first effect of gas was to
flush the face and lips and inflame the
eyes. Durrans, according to his own
statement, had not the symptoms
Physicians also testified that man who
for five minutes had been subjected to
fumes OF escaping gas from tweney-four
jets would be insensible.

The young Duke of Marlborough, for
IN engaged man, is getting an adver.
tisement which must be somewhat awk-
ward to him, to say the least. His little
episode with ballet girl in Kentucky,
while not absolutely wicked, must have
been annoying, while his more recent
arrest in New York city for fast riding
on bicycle has again brought him un.
pleasantly into prominence. However,
these little troubles will not seriously
affect his matrimonial prospects, and,
no doubt his marriage with Miss Con-
suelo Vanderbilt will take place, as per
announcement, on the 9Th of next m on tn,
after which he will return to his native
land with his handsome bride and the
