WILL MAKE A CONTEST.

A LOUISIANA REPUBLICAN SEEKING TEs-
 TIMoNY TO DUST DEMOCRAT.
 NEW ORLEANS, La., Feb. 21.-An invess tigation of the charges of fraud which have been filed by Hon. H. Dudley Coleman in the Second district, which elected Hon. Charles F. Buck, the democratic candidate for congress, will be had before Commis- sioner Wright tomorrow morning. The case will be taken up at 9:30 a. m. and there being over 130 witnesses already sum- moned, 1t is quite likely that some days will be consumed in taking testimony.
 For some time past the republicans have been exceedingly diligent in securing the country looking up every little piece of irregularity, real or imaginary, that oc- cured during the heated cont test of last November, when MT. Buck was elected as tue peoples representative by such an oyer whelming majority.
 When it was first given out that Mir. Coleman was going to contest the prOposi- ton was looked upon as ridiculous, and was only considered as good joke. The developments later on, however, prove that week or two after the campaign had come to close 1t was known positively that the contest would be made.
 MT. Buck was perfectly serene this morn- ing when States reporter met him, and expressed himself as being confident of his ability to show that he is the duly elected representative of the people in the national hall of congress from the Second district, and that, too, by an overwhelming major ity, despite the bickerings and assertions of the republicans.

 ELECTED OFFICERS.
 The Daughters of the American Revolu- tion elected new president-general at their congress today in place of Mrs. Letitia Stevenson, the wife of the vice. president, who is ineligible, under the constitution of the order, to serve another term. Mrs. John w. Foster of Indiana, wife of MT. Harrison's ex- secretary of ttate, and at present the advisor of the Chinese govern ment in the peace negotiations with Japan |, was chosen for the office after some very lively scenes. .4 rs,-.
 The other candidates were Mrs. Julia Hogg of Pennsylvania and Mrs. Roger A. Pryor of New York. Mrs. Pryor, however, withdrew in favor of Mrs. Foster, but her own nomination had been seconded by Mrs. Schuyler Hamilton of New York and others. The name of Mrs. Foster from the time it was mentioned by Mrs. Wilbour of Connecticut, who nominated her, was applauded vigorously, and the congress went wild when Mrs. Wibour concluded the nominating speech. Mrs. Hogg also received number of seconds. Mrs. Foster was elected by a nearly two-thirds vote.
 Mrs. Charles Sweet Johnson was elected vice. president general by exclamation, after several ladies had been nominated for the office aud had declined.

DRUNKEN NESS
At Any Time or Any Circumstances Sufficient Ground for Refusal
 of Promotion.

WARRINGTON, Feb. 21.-The nomination sent to the senate by the president yester- day, promoting Lieutenant Commander Frederick w. Crocker to be commander in the navy, contained the proviso that the actual promotion should not take effect until the officer shall have been on a years probation and passed an examination. The case has attracted considerable attention In the navy.
 The officer had been communicated for promotion October last, the board unani- mously deciding "that MT. Crocker had not, by reason of his habits of intoxica- ton, the moral qualifications for a com mander in the navy.'
 Another board subsequently, found that he had reformed, and recommended his promotion. Secretary Herbert, in review ing the case for final action, made the following comment regarding naval drunk enness:
 ssBoards of examination should clearly understand that drunkenness at any time aud under any circumstances is iphibted by the law and the regulations of the navy. It is true, as was contended in this case, that the government IS not concerned about the habits of Q naval officer in his home, in his club or at the house of @ friend. The time has passed for consider ing drunkenness on convivial occasions 6 vice in which the naval officers can indulge with impunity. The habit of drunken. ness, whether on or off duty, is one that, like other habits, seiZes upon and eventu. ally convicts the victim. It is true that there may be degrees of criminality in this regard. Drunkenness on duty is properly recognized in the regulations as more heinous offense than when off duty, but 8 commanding officer at sea is practically al- ways on duty, and he certainly has no hours in which he could indulge in this habit. Nor is it to be permitted, either on or off duty, that naval officer anywhere shall become intoxicated. It absolutely is a sufficient ground for the refusal of pro- motion if it shall appear that an officer Is in the habit of becoming intoxicated at any time or under my circumstances.
 The president nominated William H. Heard of Pennsylvania to be minister resi- dent and consul general to Liberia.

Feb. 21.-The legis- lative committee appointed to investigate the charges of fraud in tho governors elec- ings in the contest case by counties for the purpose of seeing if the charges of fraud in each county were specific enough for inves- tigaiion. The contest law provides that what is not denied is admitted, and the committee decided yesterday afternoon to examine into the specifications to ascertain If under this any county conld be thrown out of the list of counties to be investi- gated.

In the Cocke-Euey Murder Trial
 at Marion.
DEATH OF A JURORS CHILD.
This Time the Cause-Argu- menls Begun Before a
 Large Audience.

MARION, Feb. 2l. = Especial. The crowds began to gather in the court house long before the trial, and when Gen. eral Pettus rose to make the opening speech for ihe prosecution the seats were nearly all taken. Judge Tyson limited each speaker to five hours. There will be two speeches for the prosecution and four for the de- fense.
 None who listened to General Pettus' speech will ever forget it's strength and bitterness toward the defendants, who sit with their families around him, maxim g ths scene more striking. At the close of his speech court adjourned for dinner.
 Large as the crowd had been in the fore noon, twice greater was it to hear Hon.. Cecil Brown of Talladega in his opening spec ch Tor the defense. Every nook aud corner of the vast court TO pm was packed by larger crowd, among which scores of ladies were to be seen.
 As Mir. Brown rose Hence of death pre- vailed. His clear voice swept the vast auditorium He reviewed the case from its beginning, citing various authorities to prove that the killing of Captain Cooke was iustifiable. As his voice was raised in q most eloquent flight Sheriff King was seen to approach the judge, who, after sec ond' 8 whispered conversation, stopped the proceedings, and the attorneys on both sides were hastily summoned into the jury room.
 Many theories were in the meantime ad- vanced by the wondering crowd in the court room, until finally it leaked out that one of the jurymen had lost his child by death. The case having lasted over six weeks in the preliminary, and was now about to be settled after three weeks, an in- terruption was startling, more so as the regular term of court convenes Monday.
 Governor Seay stated that the defence would continue with a jury of eleven men. but the state objected, and after argument the stricken juror was allowed to go home, eight miles in the country, under oath to return by Friday morning at o'clock or send good excuse, aud court adjourned until the juror should return. This makes the second interruption by death, Judge Tyson being the bereaved parent before.

COLUMBIA, 8. O.. Feb. 21.--A special to the State from Pollocksville, N. C., says: At 10 o'clock this morning John King cut his wife's throat.
 From the best authority 1t appears that King and his wife had an altercation yes- terday, whereupon she left home, going to a height bor's. This morning King went after her, and upon her refusing to accom- pany him he deliberately cut her throat. Thinking she was dead King escaped to ihe woods, and although posse went in search he has not been captured. The woman still lives, but cannot recover.
