REPORTED DUEL.-A Washington
paper this morning prints an exhaust
i've account of a reported conflict with
swords between two Washingtonians
somewhere on Alexander's Island at
an early hour yesterday morning. dur
ing which one of the participants was
cut on the right arm. The combat re-
suited from the fact that the two
men were paying attention to the
same woman. Stripped of its verbiage,
this is about the substance of the story,
and the fact that no names are given
and no other paper heard of the duel
leads to the belief that the story is
apochryphal.

Nor ALLOWED TO PREACH.-Rev
George Cooper, D. D., pastor of the
First Baptist Church, Richmond, re-
ported a remarkable incident to the
Baptist ministers conference Yesterday.
Sunday, at the morning service, while
the first hymn was being sung, an usher
announced that q woman was in the
lecture room below, and wanted 10 see
him. The doctor descended the stairs
to hear the startling statement that she
had been called of God to address the
congregation. DR.. Cooper questioned
the woman and found that she had
been recently sanctified through the
ministry of Rev. ]. W. Daugherty, of
Fulton, whose peculiar doctrines and
founding of new church have been
described in the newspapers. She
repeated her request, and the doc
tor replied: eff God has instructed you
to preach in this church he has not sent
me any word, and until he does can
not comply with your request. There
is place in the gallery for colored peo-

JINGoIsM HURTS TRADE.-The Her.
aid prints interviews with prominent
bankers, merchants and manufacturers,
secured by correspondents of the Herald
in several of the leading cities in the
country. Conservative men only we're
consulted, and their opinions will re-
ceive the attention that the high stand
ing of the men merits.
1t is plsinly shown that the lingo
speeches in Congress are having de-
moralizing effect on trade throughout
the country. Small merchants as we'll
as the wholesale dealers and manufac-
turers are suffering from the unwise
agitation.
10 the cities, where business had be-
gun to rally from the depression OF a
year or more, credits have frightened,
free money is less plentiful and stagna-
ton is resulting. Factories are run
only to fill orders, it being apparent that
trade will not invest in surplus stock
until Congress has come TO its Senses
