to be intrusted alternately to the two
parties, lots being drawn at the COM
mencement. This latter feature of the
arrangement was due to formal Ob1ec-
tions Of the seconds of Prince Henri
of Orleans to the direction of the en-
counter by fifth party. At u later
meeting yesterday the seconds decided
upon the rendezvous.
The process verbal then proceeds to
describe the encounter. 1t says that In
the first assault Prince Henri was hit
In the right breast, though the weapon
did not penetrate the thOraX. On the
strength of the report of the doctors the
seconds decided that the combat must
go on.
In the third assault the Count Of Ttl
rim was hit in the back of the right
hand, but the wound was light. In the
fourth assault the umpire. Major Leon
| tieff, declared that the sword of Prince
Henri was bent, and stopped the en-
gagment long enough to furnish the
Prince with new weapon.
In the fifth assault the combatants
| again got into close quarters and were
Immediately stopped, Prince Henri in
a counter blow being hit in the lower
region of the abdomen. The doctors on
both sides examined the wound and
declared that Prince Henri was rem
dered by 1t clearly inferior to his an
tagonist. Major Leontief and NJ. MOu-
rlchon proposed that the combat be
stopped, and this was done by common
| accord.
While his wound was being dressed
Prince Henri, raising himself upon the
ground. extended his hand to the Count
of Turin. saying:
"Allow me, monselgneur, to shake
hands with you"
The Count extended his hand.
The physicians present We're DR.. Tou-
pet and DR.. Hartmann on behalf of
Prince Henri. and DR.. Carle on behalf
of the Count of Turin.
This account of the fighting was
signed by the seconds.
The details of the duel show that the
encounter was very sharp and deter

swords, Prince Henri vigorously press

Tho Count of Turin. accompanied by
his seconds. left Paris for Italy this
afternoon. He was not experiencing
any special distress from his wounds
The meeting before the seconds yes

THE LONDON TIMES
GIVES SILVER a BLACK EYE.
Says That England Cannot Take the VOL
colt Commission scriousiy-No Likely
hood That tho Indian Mints VIII BE
Rc-Opcned.

London, Aug. lT.-The Times has
published a two.column special article
to-day reviewing the effects of closing
the Indian mints, in connection with
the visit OF the American Bimetallic
Commission. 1t says: The closing
saved the Indian government from the
losses incident to heavy fall in ex-
change, and, consequently from dis
nstrous increase In the burden of its
gold obligations. II il undoubtedly
true that 1t also helped to keep down
the gold value of silver bullion, and
may not the question be raised wheth-
er the low price of silver is necessarily
disastrous to that India which pur-
chases II so largely? Since 1893 India
has been the only real wholesale custo-
mer for silver. Other customers are
of the retail order.
"rhc delicate adjustment of the rela
tive prices of the rupee and silver for
merly existing has been rudely shat
tered by recent events. Since 1896 the
rupee has risen and silver has fallen.
The fact Is, the forces now aching upon
the price of silver have become too tre-
mendous TO be dominated by such deli
cate influences as preceded the defeat
VI party anu
adoption of the gold standard These
elements have proved causes too po-
tent TO be withstood."
The article. in concluding, says:
'The closing of the mints was justi-
fled, and all that is now needed to
bring great experiment to Il success
full ending Is a little courage, as well as
resources on the part of the financiers
nf m M .t,.n A 4 I,... ttp,
plain and straightforward language is
advisable on one point. The Indian
statesmen tampercd too long with bi-
metalism. This Irritation, which
seems so innocent and innocuous, has
already cost them dear. But for that
the government would have assented
TO the closing of the mints long before
1893.
The article comments on the 'char-
acteristic crudencss and boldness of
American diplomacy in sending bi-
metallic commission to ask for the re-
opening of the Indian mints, while at
the same time dealing the worst pos
sible blow at British commerce by
passing the Dingley tariff"
ut is clearly impossible" says the
writer, Ito treat seriously "A commits
sion which argues that unless we do
something for silver in the next cleo
tion the United States will return Mr..
Bryan to the White House, to the last
ing injury of British interests. 1t is
not certain that Mr.. Bryan will be elect

were elected we would suffer more
than we would feel n new Mckinley

zone thing is certain: We would he
very foolish 10 do anything for silver.
Even should the United States and
France agree TO adopt bimctallism and
England 10 reopen the Indian mints. 1t
would only bolster up silver for brief
space, TO fall again To It's proper mar
ket price: SO that Indian finances
would be In position as bad as before,

BUSY DAY FOR STRIKERS.
The Court VIII Modify the Injunction
Against Them.

Pittsburg. Pa, Aug. 16.-To-day was
fraught with exciting Incidents on mat
tiers pertaining to the miners strike.
Mutiny in the miners camp, murder
in the deputies ranks. filing of criminal
and civil suits against the DeArmitts,
and the hearing of the injunction case
against President Dolan and others
kept both sides to the struggle busy
all day long.
The hearing in the injunction case
before Judges Stowe and Collier was
perhaps one of the most important and
interesting ever held in the federal
court. 1t was n hearing in which both
capital and the rights of labor We're
interested, and the decision is expected
TO have u telling effect on the conduct
of the great coal miners strike. which
has been on since July :.
From the testimony adduced and
from the expressions Of the court 1t can
be safely said that there will he some
surprises. That the injunction will be
materially modified there can he no
doubt, which on its face would indi-
cate victory for the strikers. The pre-.
liminary decree has been continued.
pending n consultation of the judges.

Judge Collier said In court today that
the strike would 20 down In history
as one of the wonders of the century,
and remarkable on account of the ut.
ter lack of disorder. for which the
strikers are commended, and on ac-
count OF which they have the sympathy
OF the court. Said he: There can he no
question MS to what our duty is under
all the testimony. hut am somewhat
in doubt MS TO whether or not he order
should be modified. We cannot deter.
mine this without consultation"
Judge Stowe said this evening: ''Thls
