DOM PAuIz $ uLT|MATuM Preparatiorg $ -WarBeing Push-
 ed FlSs Id in London. GRIM - SEEMS INEVITABLE Boer Secretary of State Calls AttentioD to Convention of London, Which Adopted Articles Specifying Rights of the Republic

London, October 10.-The uMimatum of the Transvaal government is the absorbing topic of the clubs and in political circles tonight and the editors of the papers calling attention to the ultimatum, the newsooys doing a thriving trade on the closing of the theaters. There was mo apparent extte- ment, however, but the general feeling was expressed that the Boers had made a mis- take, as their forcing matters was tending to alleviate the sympathy which might have been extended to them had they thrown the stigma of beginning the war on Great Britain.
 The ultimatum on arriving this morning was sent with all speed to Lord Salisbury who came to town this afternoon, and dis- patch box was sent to the Prince of Wales, which is only done in case of especial urgency. The Portuguese minister to Great Britain, Senor Percival, called at the for- eign office this afternoon and had an inter- view with Lord Salisbury, and the public naturally recall the alleged purchase of Delagoa bay by Great Britain. l

 He was followed by Rev. Dr. Rufus w. Clarke, of Detroit, Mich., who combatted the position that the famous New Yorker had taken. The discussion was continued less formally by Colonel Bradley M. Thompson, of Ann Harbor, Mich, and oth- or

1t was merely flesh wound, and probably inflicted while cutting the body in pieces.
 The doctor says this portion of the body is the upper part of young woman who had never been a mother. The part where the head is cut off Is quite ragged, and the head had evidently been hacked off; the arms were cut off close to the shoulders and are also cut off in a clumsy manner. The left thigh of woman was found last Saturday on West Seventeenth street, which proves to be a part of the find of today.
 The police were notified, and took charge of the find at once and removed it to police headquarters, whence 1t was taken to the morgue for comparison with the pants of a woman's body already there.
 The parts of the body now missing are the head, arm, the legs from above the knee down and the right thigh, which was found, but carted off to the city dumps.

CARTOON CAUSES
 A STREET DUEL Two New Orleans Editors Make Tar
 gets Of Each Other. BOTH SERIOUSLY WOUNDED M7Sboy Received One of the Stray
 Bullets in His Head. STREETS CROWDED AT THE TIME Parker is Chairman of Democratic State Campaign Committe e-Tronble Caus- ed by an Uncomplimentary
 Carricature in The Item
STREETS CROWDED AT THE TIME

New Orleans, October 10-There was a terrible street duel in front of Newspaper Row on Camp street this afternoon, in which Dominick C. o'Malley, proprietor of the Evening Item and well known pro- moter of sport, and c. Harrison Parker, state tax collector chairman of the demo- cratic state campaign committee, and edit or-in- chief of the Delta, the anti-lottery organ during it's existence, in which both were seriously if not fatally wounded
 The trouble is said to have originated over a cartoon in the Item last Sunday repre- senting Colonel Parker as a little dog being led by string by Governor Foster and labeled "Me, Too.'
 About o'clock this afternoon MT. O'Malley came out of his office, accom- panied by Parson Davies, and walked only a few yards when Colonel Parker, who was across the street conversing with some friends, turned and saw him. He started towards OMalley and the men seemed to know tht trouble was expected and began exchanging 45-calibre bullets, each firing until his pisotl was empty.
 By the time the duel was over the men were only about thirty feet apart, and each walked away to get medical attention. It was then found that each man had been hit twice Parker received ball in the side, which is the dangerous wound, and one in the shoulder. OMalley was serious ly wounded in the groin and also received a bullet in the leg.
 A newsboy fully hundred feet away was shot in the head by one of O'Malley's s bullets for the street was crowded by peo- pie at the time, but the ball did not pene- trate and the lad will recover Both men are resting easy tonight, but is too soon to guess definitely as to their chances. O'Maley has been in several shooting af- frays and Parker wounded Major E. A. Burke, then state treasurer, in famous duel in 1882.
 At midnight both wounded men were resting easy and said to be improving.

Socialist Confe. e1ce

Hanover, October 10-At today's session of the socialists conference Herr Rebel made a vigorous six-hour speech, moving that the party should remain what it was, namely, class party, whose historical aiHa is to acquire supremacy, and that there was no reason why the party would alter either it's programme, tactics or name. The party, he declared, was revolutionary, not evolutionary. Herr Rebel proceeded to re- flute, point by point, the Bernstein evolu- tionary theory of socialism, which he de- scribed as a compilation of old Bourgeois ideas. A number of the delegates an- nounced their intention to address the meeting and supporting the Bernstein the- ory, and stormy scenes are anticipated

ATTEMPTED ASSAULTS
Attacks Made on Two Wonel Who
 Came Out First Best

Ozark, Ala, October 10.-Two women in this vicinity within the last forty-eight hours had experiences with would-be as- sailants. coming out first best in both in- stances. Mrs. Barrow, a widow, Ill and alone, saw a burly negro climbing into her window. She reached for her shotgun and the negro fled. Crawling to the window, Mrs. Barrow fired and the negro fell, but recovering himself made his way painfully into the woods adjacent.
 About the same time, in another section of the county, a negro attempted to enter the home of a farmer named. Sommers Mrs Sommers was there alone and closed the door on the intruder. He insisted on forcing an entrance and she shot him dead.

SHOOTING AFFRAY AT ALEXANDER CITY TWO Men Seriously il Not MOrtally
 Wounded. HAD BEEN GOOD FRIENDS Cause of Their Mutual Anger Unknown
 to Anyone. BOTH PRINCIPALS WELL KNOWN Saw Each Other Simultaneously and Immediately Began a Deadly Flu silade-Participant Highly
 Respected Citizens
HAD BEEN GOOD FRIENDS
0TH PRINCIPALS WELL KNOWN

Alexander City, october 10.-tSpecial)- A terrible tragedy occurred at Aliens sa loon, in this city, tonight about o'clock. in which pr. H. J. Cameron, of the Roma noff Land and Mining company, and Dr. P D. Mahoney, oculist, were the princi- pals. Both men were desperately angry with one another for some cause yet un- known to the public, and opened up dead ly fusilade with pistols, with little or no warming, which ended in serious results. About ten shots were fired, two striking Dr. Mahoney, one taking effect in the vital part of the stomach and the other in the thigh.
 pr. Cameron was also shot twice. one ball taking effect in the under jaw and the second in his back. Both men are seriously if not mortally wounded.
 The life of Dr. Mahoney is despaired of, and there is only a bare chance for Dr. Cameron to live. Both men had evidently been warm friends up to almost the mo- ment of the shooting. They had known one dHotHer put ltW WeekS, diiu thiS eci- rible affair, with its possible dual homicide, was a great surprise to their numerous friends.
 Dr. Cameron is known throughout the south as one of the prominent developers of southern mineral resources, and has been recently connected with the manage ment of the Romanoff Land and Mining company, of this city
 Dr. Mahoney is a well-known oculist of place, accompanied by his wife, to spend a few weeks.
 It has developed that Dr. Mahoney is not hurt as seriously as was att first expected, for the ball which struck in the stomach ranged around to the right side, not en- tering the stomach, and he Is now resting quietly. The doctors are in splendid hopes of his early recovery.
 It further develops that pr. Cameron is hurt worse than was at first reported, for his lower jaw is crushed, and the ball may possibly have struck vital part of his throat, and his breathing is now grow ing serious on its account. The ball which entered by the spinal column has not been located, and may be yet the fatal bullet, as it seemed to have entered straight n- wardly, and may have passed through the lungs.
