MAJOR BITTINGER ASSAULTED.
gresham CrOwther - Neither
COmbatant Badly Hurt.

ST. Joseph, No. June 12.-(SpeciaI) Ex-
Congressman George c. CrOwther and
Major John L. Bittinger met to-day and
came to blows over the statement made in
a published interview in yesterdays Daily
News with Major Bittinger. in which the
ex-congressman's veracity was impcached.
The meeting occurred a little before II
o'clock on Edmond street on a Union liue
street car. The fight created intense excite
ment and within half an hour after the
meeting it was the talk of the town.
The men fought vigorously for two min
utes, but when they were separated neither
bore any serious marks of the conflict.
The meeting, if not the fight was sought
by ex-COngressman Crowther He went
to the city hall this morning and waited
the arrival of Major Bittinger. who usual
" comes downtown on a Union line car.
II was nearly II o'clock before Il car came
along bearing Major Bittinger. Mr.: Crow
into a seat adjacent 10 that occupied by
Major Bittinger. He asked the major II
the assertions attributed to him were cor
rect. Major Bitttnger replied that. sub
stantially, they We're. whereupon Mr.. Crow
ther rose and struck at Major Bittinger
landing on his nose and mouth The major
returned the assault with interest and his
fist came in violent contact with Crowther's
cheek.
The men then clinched. and. while they
were struggling, the conductor attempted
to separate them. Driver Slaybaugh stop
ped the car when he saw the fight In
progress, and a crowd Of men, nearly all
of whom knew one or the other of the con-
testants. boarded the car and effected
discontinuance OF hOstilities.
Mr.. Crowther's face was slightly scratch
ed and bleeding and Major Bittinger's nose
was shedding blood.
III see you again" said Mr.. Crowther
as he was being led away.
GU can see me at any time or any
place" replied Major Bittinger wiping the
blood from his nose.

Practical Education.

my boy" remarked the old man to his
young hopeful who had just returned from
college for the regular summer vacation
I'm really afraid that your education
isn't quite practical enough to meet the re-
qGirements of life here on the farm.
why nOt?' inquired the young man In
surprise.
Coming up from the station you told
me Just how long it would take a railroad
train. running sixty miles an hour, to come
from the sun to the EARTH"
Yes. sir"
"And you explained TO me just how much
heat would be generated by the earth II
its motion was suddenly stopped by a
solid body"
Yes. sir
"And yet when told you awhile ago TO
see how long IL would take you to run out
to the woodshed and bring in an armful
of wood for your mother you gave up the
whole problem at once, sat down here and
forgot all about it,"
"Ah-e-r. but
well now I'm about TO do a little ex-
perlmenting on my own account. I'm go
ing TO take n heavy trunk strap and see
how much heat can generate with IL by

Perhaps II Is unnecessary for me to add
that you will assist me In this experiment

ting to the woOdshed and back. II was a

JEWELRY OF THE DAY.
Strange rs 1t May Sound, the Most
Fashionable Is Old
Enshfoued

The popular jewelry of the day is the old
fashioned jewelry, and the women who dis
posed of their old brooches and canoes and
out-of-date rings are now buying just such
articles from dealers in antiques. They are,
of course, paying a good deal more than
they received few years ago. One dealer,
whose shop is filled with curiOs from all
over the world, said: Il have for several
years past given new jewelry for old, and
/ found IL paying business. When q
woman has admired anew pin have told
her she might exchange an old one for IL.
In this fashion L nave collected a lot of
cameo jewelry that women wouldn't wear
five years ago Without changing the de-
sign of this jewelry l can now sell ii for
nearly twice its original value
II Is n fact that antique rings of all Coun-
tries may be bought in New York nearly
as cheaply as abroad. The dealers buy
them through their London agents.
Pearls will be popular this spring. and
which debutantes are supposed to have a
monopoly. The London jewelers. are having
a bigger sale for them this season than they
have had in years before. and attribute the
rage to the recent famine in India. Pearls
are the royal Jewels in India and are.
therefore, the preferred stones among all
classes. Some of the natives have cOllec-
tiCnS of the rarest and most beautiful OF
these gems TO be found anywhere and they
have been forced to sell them at a great
loss in order to procure food for their fam
lilies.

et-A Word for the
Sugar Trust.

Washington. June 12.-The sugar schedule
was again the subject of the Democratic
assaults to-day in the senate. Practically
no progress was made. Only one amend
ment was voted upon. and that was de-
feated. When the senate adjourned, the
amendment OF Mr.. Lindsay, of Kentucky,
to strike out the differential on refined
suger was pending.
Mr.. Vest tried early in the day to prod
the Republicans into a detailed defense Of
the schedule, but they declined the chal-
lenge. The most sensational feature OF the
day was the speech Of Senator McEnery,
Of Louisiana, who yesterday voted with the
Republicans for the sugar schedule. II was
his maiden speech in the senate. He open
ly avowed himself a protectionist, and. as
a Democrat. justified his position upon the
ground that the tariff views should not
constitute test Of Democracy. He more
over defended the sugar trust. whose in
terests. he argued, went hand in hand with
the sugar planters.
Considering the vast interests Louisiana
has in rice and sugar" continued Mr.. Nc
Emery, mot considering the output OF her
saw mills, her salt and sulphur mines, is
there any reason why. the Democratic par
ty Of my state should not be committed to
protection? Not high protection. but such
protection as is consistent with revenue
necessities
Mr.. McEnery at some length recalled his
political career to show that as far back
as 1884 he occupied the same position on
this question occupied by him now.
"Call II what you will" said Mr.. McEn-
cry, protection. revenue duty with Incl
dental protection, or anything else, large
amounts must be raised, and there Is no
reason why the industries of the South
should not be protected"
He then proceeded to read a carefully
prepared argument in favor of the protec-
tiOn of home Industries. AS McEnery
charged inconsistency to those Democrats
who sought protection for their local in
tereSts, but who opposed protection as
system for the whole country, he should
always vote. ne said. for measures of bene-
fit to interests Of his state so long as those
interests did not conflict with the inter-
ests of other localities. The enactment of
this measure. he said. in conclusion. might
restore confidence and pave the way for
the complete regeneration OF the country
through the free coinage of silver.
The Republican senators showed much in
terest in Senator McEnery's remarks. They
crowded about and listened attentively to
his two hours speech. Mr.. MCEnery bitter
ly denounced the corporation which con-
trOlled the new method for baling cotton.
The interests Of this company, he declared,
were directly opposed to the interests of the
cotton planters. Mr.. Lindsay, of Kentucky,
and Mr.. Caffery were the other senators
who addressed the senate at length to-day.

HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION.
Frequent Reference Was Made to the
Question in Republican Cau-
Gus Yesterday.

Washington, June 12.-There were fire.
oUent references in the Republican caucus
of the senate to-day to the probability of
a new treaty for the annexation of Ha-
waii, and II seemed TO be quite generally
understood that such a treaty was included
among the possibilities for the near future.
There appeared, however. to be no definite
information as to the details, and the ref
Crences were very general in character.
No one assumed to speak for the pres
ident on this point but so far as any
thing was said II was apparently based
upon the supposition that the president
was prepared to enter into negotiations
looking to placing the islands under the
protection Of the stars and stripes as
part Of the United States. Senator Frye
referred once or twice to the possibility of
annexation, and Senators Thurston and
Nelson, who strenuously oppose the con-
tinuance Of the present treaty, in
effect announced themselves as pre-
pared TO consider favorably the
question Of annexation on the theory that
an arrangement for consolidation on that
basis would be reciprocal whereas they
contend that the present treaty is entirely
one sided in its advantages. Senator
Thurston contended that the best way to
insure annexation would be through abro-
cation of the existing treaty.

DETROIT BRUTE ARRESTED.
Thought to BE the Man Who Has As
sauIted Many Women and
Girls Lately.

Detroit, June 12.-Herbert Hockin was
arrested for the second time at $50 this
afternoon on a charge of criminally as
saulting Mrs. Adam Hitzell. The police
believe him to be the culprit who commit
ted many similar assaults upon Detroit
women and girls. After his first arrest.
Hockin was identified by Mrs. Hitzell and
veral girls, but Hockins alibi appeared
50 impregnable that he was released.
Hockin learned that the officers were
again after him this morning and he hid
up under the roof of the new government
building, where he had been employed.
This evening. after the other men had
left the building, Hockin surrendered.
HoCkin's wife was also arrested on n
charge against both of them for unlawful
cohabitation. il being alleged that they
were never married.
