At st. Petersburg, Russia, LIEUT.
General Smirnoff was probably fat
ally wounded in a duel fought We'd
nesday morning with Lieut.. Gen.
Fock.
The men were in the riding school
of the Chevalier Guard regiment and
fought with pistols, standing close
to each other when the shots were
exchanged
The duel was caused by memo
randum written by Gen Smirnoff on
the seige of Port Arthur, in which
he questioned the courage of Gen.
Fock.
The latter considered that his hon
or and reputation was involved and
challenged the author of the memo
randum.
The duel, occur ed with the full
knowledge and appreciation Of the
military authorities. 1t was witness
ed by several officers of high rank,
and it is even reported that several
women were present.
Shortly before 10 o'clock Gems.
Fock and Smirnoff appeared at the
riding school. Without saluting they
took the places assigned by their
seconds.
The duelists were instructed to-
fire until one or the other was hit
At Fock's fourth shot Smirnoff groan-
ed and sank wounded in the abdo-
men above the hip.
The word fire" was given by Gen.
Kirsieff, the Russian authority on
duelling.
At the third exchange SmirnoE
accidentally fired prematurely, but
Fock magnanimously declined to-
shoot at a defenceless opponent, and
the fourth and final shots were then
exchanged.
The duel will be followed by
another between Fock and Gen. Cor
batoffsky who was criticised by
Fock during the court-martial pro-
ceedings.
Gen Smirnoff was acting comman-
dant Of the Port Arthur fortress dur
ing the seige and at the time of its
surrender to the Japanese. After his
return to Russia he prepared a Sc
cret report of the defense of Port Ar
thur which was the basis Of the
indictments on which Gen. Stossel,
Gen. Fock and Gen. Reiss were tried
for their lives before court mar
tial.

Tuesday afternoon on the electric car

falling on the track and was then

the boy remained on the track until
the car bound for Aiken came up a

up to the tub, in which the child had

of the negro child's death caused a

AWFUL TRAGEDY.
BUCHANAN SHOT WHILE

He is Fatally Wounded and is Taken

o'clock as the result Of the 22-calibre
rifle wound which he received while
sitting in railway car at Wards
Station, S. c., Monday afternoon.
Judge Buchanan was coming from
Winnsboro to Augusta and was sit

newspaper when without warning

through the opening and buried it.
self in his right side, the shot having
been fired by some unknown party,
the only theory entertained here be-
ing that it was stray bullet fired
by some person practic;ng shooting.
The wounded man was brought
to this city and an operation at Dr..
T. R. Wrights private sanitarium
resulted in the successful extraction
of the bullet, but the intestines had
been pierced in several places. The
remains were taken to Winnsboro
for interment.
Judge Buchanan was TO meet a
party in Augusta composed of his
brothers-in-law, MessrS. James H.
Tillman, A. R. Fuller, OF Laurens,
and his sister-in-law, Mrs. G. A.
Punch. He was sitting in seat with
Judge Lyon, and as the train was

LEGISLATIVE POWER.

He Says Congress Is SuDscrvient to
the Presidents Will, and Says He
Exercises Too Much Influence on
the Other Departments Of the Gov
ernment. House Declared to be
Speakers Tool.
With a caution unusual for him,
Senator Tillman recently read a part
of his speech in the Senate, in which
he denounced Executive encroach-
ment on legislative power. With this
apparent caution he proceeded to de-
liver one of the most direct and de-
mandatory addresses ever heard IN
that body. He was given careful
hearing. His speech was based on
his resolution instructing the commit
tee on finance to inquire whether ma
tional banks of New York are in the
habit of furnishing permanent capl-
tai for speculative enterprises, etc.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr.. Tillman traced what he termed
swinging of the pendulum from
the regime of Andrew Jackson, When
Congress assumed control almost to
the exclusion Of the President from
legislative influence, to the admins
trations which followed, which, ne
declared, witnessed a growth OF Pres
idential powers. The dominating in
fluence and control of the Executive
branch over the legislature and III
degree over the judicial branches OF
the Government were the most mark
ed features of the American politics at
this time. 1T has taken, said Mr.
Tillman, lust forty-one years FOR the
nendulum to swing from one extreme
