an early hour this morning, and Mrs. Ed
wards, his wife, told the detectives that
her husband complained of having been
assaulted when he reached home at an
early hour this morning. He complained
that his thumb had been injured and that
he had received slight injuries to his face.
She also stated that she had to wash some
blood stains from his clothing before he
left the apartment house this morning.
An employee OF the De Soto stated that
he had witnessed most of the trouble. He
was told that Miss Scott had not returned,
but remained about there until she came
He would walk up and down the pavement,
the employee stated, and occasionally would
appear at the door. When the couple
finally reached the entrance to the build
ing, he said, Edwards made for the young
man who was escorting Miss Scott, and the
fight was soon on in earnest. He repeated
language which, he said, was used by
Edwards, and said that great amount Of
blood was spilled by the man who was
cut.
Miss Scott Evades Edwards.
When the wounded man left the vicinity
Of the De Soto, he said, Edwards entered
the building and searched for Miss Scott
going through the basement, where he
seemed to think she was in hiding. Miss
Scott, he said, hid on the stairs In the
building until she knew that Edwards was
out Of sight; then she left and ran around
the corner, where 1t is inferred. she met
Lippincott, and procured his assistance.
The detectives found blood stains on the
pavement along Massachusetts, avenue and
around the corner on 18th street.
The detectives had not succeeded this
afternoon In locating either the wounded
man or the man who Is alleged to have In
fiicted the wound. Mrs. Edwards said her
husband had left the fat this morning to
found him at 2 o'clock this afternoon.

Writes to Get Terms of Big Right
 Hander.
Montgomery Manager is Preparing for Opening of season-Two Suits to be Ordered fer Each Player on
 s Team.

Manager Malarky is going to have Walter Sessions If possible. and yester- day morning wrote to Mike Kelly to secure his terms. telling him that if satisfactory. he would close the deal for the pitcher. Sessions was bought by Montgmoery last year, but refused to come South. It may be that he will do the same this year. but as he and Malarky were teammates and friends in 1904. it is hoped he will come down here this trip. His record in 1904 stamped him as above the average in the pitching line. and the hot climate of the South should help him.
 InL1904. Sessions pitched thirty seven games or St. Paul, in these games he pitched 294 innings. 1,131 batters fac- ing him and making 271 hits--a frac- ton over seven hits a game. Two hun dred and fourteen runs were made off him-something over five game, while he hit only seven men--not one in two games-gave eighty six bases on balls fraction over two a game, struck out 132 batters. nearly four a glme. made only six wild pitches, av- craze Of one in games, winning twen- ty>seven and losing ten of his games. He played in forty three games with thirteen putouts. seventy nine assists and seven errors. with a fielding av- craze of 1927.
 Sessions is a big. husky right handler w'th splendid control great speed and T puzzling curve ball with a vicious break that is hard to hit.

Thele were five sections of the morning trains yesterday and three sections of the evening trains last night, and while there win be a number of extra cars today and probably extra sec tions of trains this morning the travel will not be nearly as heavy as yester- day, and the carnival business for this year IS practically over.

I've Trneks to Cincinnati.

All question of the Louisville and Nashville taking charge of the Chat tanooga Southern, have been set at rest, and the Louisville and Nashville will now. have a double track from Cincinnati by way of Knoxville to Gadsden and by the Alabama Mineral and Anniston to Calera. The Gads- den Times-News says of 1t:
 Tt is stated son reliable authority that the Louisville and Nashville will have charge of the Chattanooga South ern within the next month.
 Tt seems that the matter has been tied up by the refusal of the minority stockholders to confirm the deal made by the trustees whereby the majority stockholders sold their interests in the road to the Louisville and Nashville. The trustees only had authority to sell the stock iii a lump or to sell the road itself at a cash price. The Louis- vile and Nashville people, it is un- derstood. were unwilling to pay a par outright; the minority stockholders were unwilling to come to tho terms made by the majority stockholders and so the matter has hung fire for nearly six months.
 The minority stockholders. to block the deal. even threatened to go into the courts to secure an injunction to prevent. the transfer of the majority stock. alleging that the deal was un- fair to them. It seems to be the opln- ion of the minority stockholders that the deal as made by the majority was in effect freezing out" of their in- terests and hence their vigorous pro- tests and the stopping of the deal for negotiations in order to satisfy the enraged minority.
 ''The matter has now been in this shane f0r the mast SaVaPaI months The demands of the minority stockholders have at last been met or compromised with and they are now selling out their stock Individuality.
 "A meeting of the stockholders has been called for one day this week at New York and at the meeting the deal will be consummated."

 At short, he has two of the fastest minor league men in the country and one of them will be used at third base. In the outfield. he has such men as Bird, of last years New Orleans Little Rock teams, and one of the fastest men in the country: Bfanush of last years Memnhis team. a terrific hitter; and Link Stickney of this city. whom local fans know to be an unusually hard hitter and fast fielder.
