Tho War OF the Republican Factions.

The Milford Chronicle, chief organ OF
the Addicks Republicans in Delaware,
which has boen making savage on
saughts against the ranks of the Regu-
lar Republicans, is in somewht less
fighting mood IN this weeks issue.
Here arc it's special compliments to the
Sussex Republican, the favored organ
of the Regulars:
The Chronicle here closes its contro-
versy with the editor of the Sussex Ne
publican. Mr.. Houston says that no
did not receive any money TO aid his
election in 1892, when he was candi-
date for the Legislature. This state
ment shall stand as long as the Sussex
Republican Geases to abuse the villify
its neighbors end former party friends
the Union Republicans. Whenever the
attack is renewed VIZ purpose 10 strip
the veil from of tho face of more than
one political prophet of Khorassan.
This is interesting. The Chronicle,
it will be remembered, charged BY very
direct inference that the editor of the
Sussex Republican, when a candidate
for Representative iu the General AZ
aombly, had received from Mr.. Addicks
a contribution OF one thousand dollars
to aid in his election. To this the Sus.
ssx Republican interposed worry lame
disclaimer, which could not be con
strued satisfactorily as either an admis
aion or denial.
Now the Chronicle returns TO tht
contention in the above manner. BY
the ordinary reader it will he construed
as threat. II the Sussex Republican
behaves itself and does not say nasty
things about the Addicks Republicans
the Milford Chronicle will remaiI
silent. But should the Sussex Repuh
lican prove obatreperoua, then tn
Chronicle will declare war 10 tn
knife ~
So a truce has bean virtually declare,
between the factions, 80 far as the Mil
ford Chronicle is concerned. hut !
must he loaded with lot Of convincing
arguments in support Of its origina
charge against the editor of this SUISSE
/ Republican. or ii would NOT foal so flip
pant over the matter. Tho public woul
no doubt be pleased 10 be let into th
secret OF tie full extent Uf Its informu
ton. .M

London, Aug. 14-News from Bey-
reuth says that this years Wagnerian
festival was supported mainly by
Americans and English.
The drift of the public taste toward
Wagner has impelled many singers
whose regulations have been acquired
in the Italian school to the study of
the German master.
Jean De Reszke, it is believed, will
devote himself almost entirely to Wag-
merriam roles.
A stroke of very good fortune has be
fallen the Abbott sisters, American
girls, who have had considerable sue
cess here in drawing rooms and in
music halls as singers of plantation
melodies. Jean De Reszke has offered
TO defray Bessie Abbotts expenses in
educating her for opera, and expects
to launch her on that stage.
