ALL ABOUT A GUN.
RE-ARMAMENT OF THE NEW YORK
NATIONAL GUARD.
1t Is Expected That Some Sensation
al Developments viii Be Brought
About at the Proposed Hearing.

NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-The adoption
of the Savage gun for the re-armament
of the national guard, at a. cost of over
100000, is to be vigorously opposed by
the Winchester Arms company of New
Haven, Conn, and other gun inventors
and manufacturers who entered the
test before the state commission were
named to select a gun. They claim
that there was collision practiced in
the selection of the gun.
There has been made to Governor
Morton a protest against his approval
of the report filed by the commission
named to recommend a gun for the
use Of the national guard of the state.
The commission sent its report to the
governor abount a month ago, and it
was in favor of the selection of the
gun manufactured by the Savage Re
peating Arms company of Utica. The
protest comes from the Winchester
Arms company and several other COM
panies and individuals who failed to
secure the approval as against the
Savage gun.
The protestants claim that there
seems to have been collision between
at least two members of the commits
sion named by the governor and the
successful competitor in the test; that
commission was selected through po-
litical influence; that the governor
was made an innocent party to the
transaction, and that whether or not
the report is approved by the COVER
nor, the matter will at the next session
of the legislature be made the subject
of legislative inquiry. The Winchester
Arms company has requested hear
ing before the governor and has re-
tanned General Benjamin F. Tracy
as counsel in the case to oppose the
approval of the commissioners report
by the governor.
The governor will allow the protest
ants to be heard but will not consider
the report until some time after he
returns from his vacation. He will
grant the hearing after General Tracy
returns from Europe, about Sept. 20.
1t is expected that some sensational
developments will be brought out at
the hearing.
What the claim of the protestants
will be at the hearing is that direct
connection can be traced between two
members of the commission and the
promoters of the Savage Gun company,
and that it was the promoters Of the
Savage Gun company who were in
strumental in getting the bill through
the legislature, using certain political
influence to gain their end. Those in
terested in the gun began operations
by taking a tip from Governor Nor
tons message to the legislature, in
which he recommended that the ma
tional guard be re-armed. The bill
was drawn, the promoters of the Saw
age gun, it is alleged, being the ones
who caused the drafting of the meas
ure.

Election booths formed a topic at the
meeting of the board of county COM
missioners yesterday afternoon. 1t will
be remembered that the Australian
ballot system will be in use here at
the coming election and that to con-
form to the law there must be booths
for the electors. There are various
cheaper than others, and the various
kinds and prices will be considered by
the commissioners in the sanctity of
their office today.
While in the east the county attor-
ney had a conference with the election
commissioners Of the city of Chicago
and Obtained a copy of all the bids
which they received from the manu-
facturers of booths. He submitted the
same yesterday with a letter, in which
he enlightened the commissioners as
to booths and booths and booths.
The bids which the commissioners
Of election of the Windy City received
were as follows:
O'Donnell Odometer company, $3.50
and $780, Plumley & Co., $5.75 and
$500; George D. Barnett & Co.. 81 and
IS; Z. c. Cook & Co, Sc and $40.
In addition to this the attorney said
q firm in Buffalo made a booth which
cost $3.50 each, and which he believed
could be built here. He left the mat
ter in the hands of the commissioners
and they will consult right away.
The meeting was not as lively as has
been held by the board. There was a.
tameness about it which always goes
on when there are any bills to pay,
and there were several yesterday. A
great list of claims were allowed, but
until the auditor makes some footings
there will be no totals furnished.
NJ. Christopherson ct al. and John
Bowman petitioned for the release of
some property, which was referred to
the attorney for an opinion.
c. Lowe, the inspector on the ele-
vator, reported that he had no fur
ther tests to make. and the subject
was referred to Messes. Roberts and
Christopherson, who will wrestle with
the matter all by themselves.
Jake Newman & Co. were granted a
license to sell liquor at Bingham, and
the ordinance setting apart South
Main street for boulevard was read
and filed for future action.
The court decided to pay one-fourth
of the cost of cleaning out the ditch
over Jordan, so David Mckenzie can
cut his hay without going out in a
boat. and the collectors requisition for
stamped envelopes. amounting to
$122.06, was granted. Then the COM

A LITTLE UNPL EA sANTNEss.

brief but lively scrimmage took
place yesterday morning at the union
depot just prior TO the arrival of the
Union Pacific train from the south.
Fred Dalton, of the. circulating depart
ment of the Tribune. and Edward
Cooke were the principals. The trouble
started over disputed account, Cooke
claiming that Dalton owed him S2S for
papers furnished him when the former
had charge of the Tribune circulation
in this city Cooke claimed that Dali
ton had denied the debt, not only to the
Tribune people, but, on Sunday, had re-
fused to let Cookies boy have papers to
sell unless the boy should pay spot cash
for them.
The dispute was confined to words
FOR the first few minutes and Cooke did
most Of the talking.
Cooke called the other man some I'M
printable names and seemed to be thor
oughly exasperated while Dalton
maintained a serene composure. At
this juncture the Cooke boy arrived and
asked If such and such were the case.
On receiving an affirmative reply Cooke
landed a smashing blow ON Dalton's
eve. Dalton is a vigorous fellow about
81 years of age while Cooke is at least
three times tnat age and not one whit
less vigorous. However, in the scuffle
that followed the young man main
uained an equilibrium of temper,
though he lost that of his body. By
ISLANDERS say he persistently refused to
strike his assailant. The depot po ice
separated them. Later Cooke plead
guilty to assault and paid fine Of So.
