GREENUP, KY, April l6tb.-There was
a sensational scene in the court house
this afternoon between Lieutenant Cover
nor Worthington and Col. Frank Ben
nett, once a member of the General
Assembly.
They were opposing counsel in the
Burns-Gordon damage seduction case.

criticising Bennett.
When Benefits turn came he fred
back viciously, and at one remark
Worthington jumped up and seized big
ink stand, weighing over a pound. He
drew to throw at Benefits head, when
Attorney w. T. Cole caught his arm.
The result was that Cole, as is Gus
tomary with peace-makers, caught all the
ink in his face and hair, the whole drip
ping down over his shirt and clothes.
Friends prevented further trouble, and
peace was soon restored.

"Our high-tarff neighbor," replies the
New York Times, although quite familiar
with the Government reports, processes
to believe that great flood OF imports
followed the enactment of the tariff law
now in force. The Tribune has spoken
of it daily for the last year and half.
But has the incoming Of this flood been
revealed by the official reports? Let us

THE following table shows the imports
of free and dutable goods during the
four fiscal years of the Mckinley tariff,
the annual average for those years, and
the imports for the fiscal year 1895,

The imports, either free or dutiable,

and the free imports of 1895 were less
than those of any Mckinley year.
