THE M1NOr ROW.

The Reporter gives the following &C.
count Of the trouble at Minot last week:
Minot was exceedingly "warm" last night,
and to do credit to all that transpirsd
would probably gil the columns Of our
paper. One trouble came about tho ar
rest~of a notorious character, named
'"Grace," who was brought up before
Judge Murray yesterday afternoon. She
asked for a postponement of her case
until today at 2 O'Clock which was grant
ed. Jones was delegated to guard her to
the house, when a general row was started,
presumably to get chance to do him,
and from appearances it was previously
planned-the intention being, it is under
st.od. to do up Acting Chief Of Police
Roy Peirce, who had made the arrest,
aud for whom Jones was mista ken. Jones
took hand in it to quell the disturb
ance, and in his efforts to arrest tho
o0wardly leaders was struck ON the back
Of the head with the head end of a coupling
pin by one of the thugs, Jones however,
stood to his duty aud fought brsvely
against odds, but was overpowered Dy
superior numbers, and was Rocked down,
kicked. pounded and otherwise bruised
up. BY this time help began to arrive, one
of the thugs was captured and two others
escaping. Jones was taken to the hospital
where his wounds were dressed, BY Dr..
Crokat, and is resting easy.
While the above events we're trans.
piring, the south end of Main Street was
tho scene Of . tradgey, which resulted
in the death of Louis Hoffman, at the
hands Of Agent O'Brten o. the Great
Northern. Hoffman, vas prisoner in
the county Jail, but requested the sheriff
TO take, him to his home to get chance
OF ciother. Tho story as told by the
family Of tho unfortunate man, Ia a. fol-
lows: O'Brien had accompanied Mrs.
Hoffman and Mrs. Thomas Jones home
and they we're ali sitting in little room,
of the ball when Hoffman raped at
the screen door Of the hall entrance.
Mrs. Hoffman went to open it for him,
when he used some rough language to
her. She ran without opening the door.
and Hoffman pushed his hand through
tee screen netting, unlocked the door
and gave ,hase. Both women sAen ran
out doors followed by Hoffman who
lost them and went back into che house
and had hot words with O'Brien. The
sheriff then came in and took Hoffman in
to the front room, aud O'Brlen went out
the back way. In short time hs came
back into the kitchen vnd H0ffmaa rushed
out the front door and attacked him
O'Rrien broke away and shot him in the
leg; from which he bled to death in about
three hours. -s~4.-

WASHINGTON, March 1A.-Tho report Of Elec-
lions Committee No. 2 on tho contest Of Ben L.
Fairchild for the scat in Congress now occupied
by William L. Ward. from the Sixteenth Now
York district. will be made to tho House to-
morrow by Chairman Royse. 1t will recommend
that Wards right and title to the seat be con-
frmed. Fairchild made the contest on tho
ground that, by virtue of q decision by tho Court
of Appeals Of tho State, he was tho regular Re-
publican candidate in that district. and that
the votes cast for Ward should have been
credited to him. Tho committee say they
are unable to agree with the conclu-
sions of the Court of Appeals. and even
IL they did so agree. the conclusions
were mere dicta. by the express terms of the
opinion rendered. and ought not to be permit
ted to o%Verturn the expressed will of the people
at tho polls. The voters. even those who orig
inally favored Fairchild. cast their ballots for
Ward, because no represented the regular or
Ranization on tho ticket, and this course was
advocated by Fairchild himself. As to the
merits OF the controversy, whether Fairchild or
Ward was the rightful candidate of the Repub-
lican' party Of the district, the committee ex-
Mr.. Gaines of Tennessee has not yet made up
his mind whether tho conclusion OF the commit.
tee is correct. and has so far withheld his APP
