SQUABBLE IN KENTUCKY
ANOTHER ROW IN THE BLUEGRASS
STATE LEGISLATURE.
Two Rival Senates in Session mt Same
Time in Same Hall-COmprO-
mise Finally Reached.

FRANKFORT, KY, May 1.-THE State
witnessed the spectacle this morning of two
separate bodies being in session in the same
hail. and each claiming to be the Senate
of Kentucky. The fight over the Stephen
son fusion bill was renewed, and the adj
vocates of the bill were confident of its
passage The silver Democrats insisted
that Lieutenant Governor Worthington va
cate the chair pending an appeal from one
of his decisions by Senator Bronston on the
question of Indicating" members who are
present, but refused to vote. Lieutenant
Governor Worthington, backed by the Re-
publcans and gold Democrats, refused to
vacate the chair. Senator Goebel, the pres
ident pro tenn, who was presiding pending
the appeal from Worthington's decision, de-
manded his right to the chair The pres
ident refused to recognize him, and, lifting
a chair over the clerks desk, Goebel took
his seat beside the clerk, and the two
bodies were in session amid the widest con-
fusion. Bitter words passed between Sem
ator Bronston, of the silver side, and Lien
tenant Governor Worthngton, of the
Worthington Senate The Worthington
Senate adjourned till o'clock this after
noon and the Goebel Senate, which, while
in the minority, is backed by the clerks
and other officers, adjourned till five min
uteS before 3 o'clock.
AT O'Clock the Senate doors We're
thrown open and Mr.. Goebel took the chair
to keep it till five minutes before 3, when
the Worthington Senate was to meet and
when it was feared that a possible diff
Guilty over possession of the chair might
ensue A few minutes later Mr.. Worthing-
ton came in the hall and went up to the
to him and then called up Senator Brons-
ton. 1t developed at once that a compro-
mise had been reached that the lieutenant
governor concluding that he might have
been wrong in resuming the chair before
the appeal from his decision was acted on
ular way The agreement was that both
Senates should meet at and adjourn till
tomorrow at II, when Goebel shall be in
the chair and the appeal still pending.
The journal will then begin where the
clerk ceased to act. This means that the
silver minority has won; that all the ma
jority is not as warmly for the fusion bill
as they seem and that 1t will not pass.

SPIKE" SULLIVAN WON
GOT THE DECISION OVER JACK
DOWNEY IN NINETEENTH ROUND.
Latter Didn't Fight Fair and Was
Kissed by the Observation-Disclosures
Bested by ZiegIer.

NEW YORK, May 17-"Spike" Sullivan
got the decision over Jack Downey tonight
at the Broadway Athletic Club, on a foul
in the nineteenth round. Up to the fif-
teenth round Downey had slightly the bet
ter of the argument, but he became tired
after that round and simply played for
draw The first round was tame, the men
sizing each other up. In the second round
Downey landed right swing on the jaw
which staggered Spike. Downey, in a
clinch, endeavored to squeeze Sullivan's
neck and was cautioned. In the sixth
round Spike met Downeys rush with a left
jab on the jaw followed Immediately after
with a left-hand swing on the body. Dow
ned got a good left on the body and fol-
lowed with a right hook on the jaw which
floored Spike. Downey followed up his adj
vantage and forced Spike to the ropes on
a miX-up.
Downey forced the fighting in the sew
enth, and getting Spike in the corner,
foored him with q left swing on the jaw.
Downey plainly had Spike on queer
street. when the bell sounded. Spike came
up looking worried for the eighth. In
mix-up Downey threw Spike Intentionally
and was again cautioned Downey seemed
anxious to clinch at every opportunity and
to rest himself by leaning on his opponent.
The fifteenth round included wrestling
match and several good miX-upS in which
DoWney had the best of it. With one arm
free ne gave Spike several damaging upper
cuts. Downey started wrestling again in
the sixteenth, calling forth the misses OF
the spectators.
Downey disguised the spectators in the
seventeenth by his constant clinching and
refusing to break. The referee was kept
busy separating the men. This round was
all in Sullivans favor, and Downey was APP
parently firing and playing for a draw.
DOWney followed the same tactics in the
eighteenth round, refusing to fight himself
and not allowing Spike to do any by his
Spike in a mix-up, was forced to the ropes
and nearly fell through and went down on
his knees to save himself. Downey then
deliberately hit Sullivan with left and
right. The referee stopped the bout and
after the uproar was quieted the referee
declared Sullivan the winner.

CUBAN COLONY AUGMENTED.
Interesting Addition to the Society
of ST. Augusfine

interesting AuuiN1On 10 the society
of st. Augustine.
st. Augustine, Fla, Sept. 10.-Senor Ra-
fael Montalvo arrived here this morning
and was received by the Cuban colony
with open arms and congratulations on his
safe return to his wife and seven children,
residents on San Marco avenue, from an
eleven months confinement on the island
of Ceute, as a Suspect of intrigue with
the rebels in Cuba"
Senior Montalvo, although having q
loyal Spanish wife, being a Cuban, advo-
Gated autonomy and took no special part
in the rebellion, but his friends are loyal
followers of Gomez, and the more or less
communicating with him caused suspic-
ion on the part of Capt. Gen. Weyler, and
he was arrested, and sent to Africa with
a lot of unfortunates, including criminals,
etc, and was made to suffer all kinds of
indignities and hardships as everything
tainted with Cuban blood or sympathy for
the Cuban cause, he says, is made mark
for the severest of punishment by both the
soldiery and inhabitants of the island.
Madam Montalvos influence secured a
pardon and the release of the gentleman,
whose return to-day brought such rejoic-
ings to their refuge home. Senior Mon
talvo while looking hearty, his people
say, the Imprisonment has aged him con-
siderable.
Sheriff Davis and the Morning News
correspondent learned late last night of
the digging of a hole in the garden lot
at the corner of Central avenue and Ce-
dar street during the storm of midnight
of Sept. by unknown parties, and went
to the place and had the mysterious hole,
which had been hastily refilled dug out,
believing that the sequel to a dark deed
would be unearthed, but after removing
the loose earth from a space Sx4x4 feet,
nothing was discovered to indicate the OBJ
ject of those who had dug so large
hole. There was some years ago a house
resting on the spot where the digging was
done, and as the old-time coquina rock
was removed and thrown into the hole
on reflling, 1t is supposed that more bur
led treasures have been recovered and
disappeared, leaving no tracks but the
digging and the tracks of a No. new
shoe and the prints of a foot with partly
soed shoe.
The incident causes considerable mys-
terry, and the negroes are much excited.

A DAILY SENSATION.
Augusta Politicians Have "A New Ex-
citcment with Each SUN.

Augusta, Ca, Sept. 1.-THE mayoralty
race grows in interest daily. This even
ing Postmaster w. M. Dunbar announces
his candidacy in answer to a petition by
800 asking him to run, and Mr.. Dan Kerr
announces the following gentlemen for
councilmen on his ticket: First ward, AS
bury Hull; second ward, Edward Lyons;
Third ward, Thomas Barrett; Fourth
ward, George r. Lombard; the Fifth
ward is left open. Two candidates are
already announced in that ward, and Mr..
Kerr did not care to choose between them
and antagonize the other.
Mr.. George r. Lombard writes Mr..
Walsh note that will be published along
with Mr. Kerr's announcement of his
ticket, in which Mr.. Lombard authorizes
Mr.. Walsh to put his name on Walsh s
ticket, and says he is not the champion
OF any candidate. Mr. Lombard is a large
manufacturer, and one of the leading men
Of Augusta. He was a strong card for
Kerr to play, but the letter from Mr..
Lombard to Mr.. Walsh takes the wind out
of this sail.
There are now four candidates in the
field, and this promises to be the most
notable campaign in Augustus history.

A Bold Attempt at Robbery Is Frus-
trated by an Old Man.
Abbevlle, Ca, Sept. 1.-THE facts in the
case of one of the boldest robberles that
ever occurred in Wilcox county have just
come to light. Mr.. r. N. Player, naged
farmer, living alone, having separated re-
Gently from his third and youthful wife.
while sleeping in his house, thirteen miles
south of Abbeville, last Friday night, was
aroused by a vice-like grip on his throat.
The midnight intrduer then ordered him to
get up and be quiet. He then blindfolded
the old man and demanded his money. Mr..
Player delivered his pocketbook, contain
ing $13 in money. The robber then con-
Quoted his victim to the well in the yard,
where he secured a rope and made a
moose. He then asked Mr.. Player if he
had any more money in the house The
old man had loaded gun In his room and
a ray of hope cleaned upon him. He re-
piled that he had large sum in the
house, and if permitted would go and get
1t. The robber was suspicious and de-
clined the proposition. In attempting to
throw the moose over the neck of his
victim Player resisted and knocked off the
mask of the robber, and cried out for help.
The villain then beat hasty retreat.
Mr. Player was unable to recognize his
assaiant in the darkness, but was able to
determine that he was white man.
Mr.. Player lives alone, remote from the
railroad, is economical and boards his
money. These facts were evidently known
to his nocturnal visitor.
Stimulated nv the rise N tbp f1rioe of

all running on fun time. The mill owners
say that there is no difficulty in securing
orders at satisfactory prices.
