Sensation May Be sprunu.

Gadsden. March s.-(special )-There have been no new developments in the military sensation in Gadsden today. Both sides have decided to rest on their oars for the time being and the meeting at the armory of the Queen City Guards by both the old and the new company is awaited with considerable interest. There is likely to be a clash when the contend ing forces meet, but the cooler heads hope for no serious trouble. Your corre- spondent has received a tip that 6 de- cided sensation may be sprung if Cap tain Rainey persists in his course. Some matters are said to be known to sev- eral of the members that would not look well in print.
