Minneapolis, April 2S.-Ben L. Hill,
the former Minneapolis man whose
wife murder and subsequent convlc-
ton at Oakland, Cal, have been de-
tailed, was on last Monday sentenced
to be hanged. The news was received
by the condemned mans brother, Sar-
geant E. D. Hill, in Minneapolis yes,
terday. Hill looked pale and haggaro
and disconsolate when brought lnto
the superior court at Oakland last
Monday to be sentenced by Judge Og-
den. The court ordered that he be
taken to the penitentiary until the date
of execution was fixed. He was re-
moved when sentence was passed. A
stay of execution, at least so far as

BIG MEN IN A SCRAP.
Two congressman Engage in a
Personal Conflict

Personal Conflict.
Washington, April 5.-Congressman
Money Dem, Miss), senator-elect
from that state, and Congressman
Hall Dem, Mo- had a personal en-
counter in the committee on naval af-
fairs. Both are members of the COM
mittee, which was not, however, in
session at the time of the fracaS. Fee
Tx McCloSkey, the messenger, stand
ing at the door, heard the two Il IN
bers talking rather loudly. They were
evidently both very much aroused.
Suddenly Mr. McCloskey heard Mr..
Hall say "I'll allow no man to call
me a liar"
With the words he reached over and
planted his fist in Mr.. Moneys face.
Mr.. Hall is a man of large stature,
standing six feet two, and weighing
$50 pounds. Mr. MoLey is also tall,
but rather slender in build and no
match for his opponent physically.
The blow staggered the Mississippian.
Before Mr.. Money could recover him
self, Mr., Hall grabbed a large glass
ink we'll from the table and hurled it
at Mr.. Money. The latter, already
dazed, could not dodge the missile, and
it struck him behind the ear, cutting
The wall. At this juncture, Mr.. Nc
Cioskey, who had been making his
way towards the irate congressman,
crowded between them and prevented
further onsIaughts. Hall was with
difficulty suppressed from continuing
the assault Money stood against the
wall faint from loss of blood, which
was streaming down his neck from the
in II Ia
taken to committee room on the floor
below while Hall walked calmly along
the corridor to the hall of the house.
The blood from Moneys wound drop
ped on the marble floor as he was half
carried down the steps. A great crowd
Immediately congregated and there
was much excitement
Mr. Money was taken to the room of
the committee on claims, where his
wounds were dressed by a physician
who happened to be in the building.
There were two cuts, one just back of
the ear, about an inch long, and the
other further down the neck. Both
were inflicted, probably, by the points
of the ink well. Mr. Money, like his
adversary, said he did not desire to
make statement. A close friend OF
Mr.. Money, however, who was an eye
witness of the occurrence, had the fol-
lowing version of the difficulty:
''Mr. Money was in the room," said
this gentleman, Cooking over his mail,
when Mr. Hall entered and began dis
cussing a bill before the committee re-
lating to the rank of naval surgeons.
Mr.. Money took part in the discussions
and though his voice was pitched as
it usually is in conversational tones,
he was in no wise excited. Mr.. Money
made a statement that the surgeons
were after both rank and command.
No. he added, smilingly, L take that
back; not command, but rank
ANY man who says that said Mr..
Hall, angrily, says what is not true
"'You are a damned liar retorted
Mr.. Money, partly rising from his
chair. Then the trouble began. Neither
will make a statement There are ru-
mors of a duel, but it is thought that
friends will bring about friendly set
tlement"
