DUELLISTS WOUND POLICE:

Paris, oct 3-The ordinary Partisan

dangerously. though both OF the duellists
escaped unharmod.
The affair began. as such affairs fro
quently do, I'm one OF the we'll known
dance halls Of Montmartre to the strains
OF the Blue Danube" waltz. and a woman.
beautiful. of course. was the cause. Two
OF the young men at the dance were vio-
lently In love with this queen of beauty
and she smiled upon each with equal
fervor and distributed her dances with
true feminine acumen until near the end
of the ball. when she inadvertently gave
the same waltz to each OF the rivals.
There was at once a dispute and 1t ragged
until the master OF the floor besought
them to take their quarrel elsewhere.
The two men left the hall for neighbor-
ing street, where they began to pump
bullets at each other. Their excitement
and the wine they had imbibed, to say
nothing of the uncertain light of earliest
dawn, made their aim somewhat erratic.
They seemed TO have plenty OF ammuni-
ton, however. for some sixty shots We're
fired before the crowd which had gath
cred was sufficiently large to make the
fusilade effective.
1t was then that the unlucky policemen
appeared, and they, mlsled by the furious
noise of the combat, thought that the
duellists were in earnest There followed
a battle between duellists and police 1t
was very brief, the two young men soon
clearing out together. but five policemen
We're left stretched upon the sidewalk
and two OF them had to be taken to the

tBy Gable TO The Trbune.I
Paris, oct 1l.-President Poincar6's
visit to King Alfonso Of Spain has

concerning the defence OF Spanish
Mediterranean ports. which In case Of
emergency will also be available for
French warships. and, third, in ref
erence TO French garrisons near the
Spanish frontier which will be with
drawn to other points more important
in case Of war.
A basis is now prepared for SPANS
eventual entry into the Franco British

Iondon. oct. 11.-Opinions OF the ior-

In the mean time. while the officers
dressed in the latest mode. were fed
bountIfully and enjoyed the picnic TO
tho utmost. the men in the ranks
worked hard constantly and starved
because Of transport trains carrying
food supplies for them being constantly

the manpuvres came 10 an end the

several regiments supposed TO take
part in battles. Many Of them were
lost and never reached the scene Of
fighting, while others got into the
"cncmy's" country and were capt

where they were. The report sums up
the mannuvres by saying that they
were a dsgraceful failure and hui
initiating spectacle of military inef-
fciency.
While the Turkish attache was max
ing this report on the British army
another military expert made most
interesting comments on the German
and British navies. This critic Is

as a relieving squadron, which must
be constantly going back and forth be-

The German ships. by reason of being
built for operation in home waters.
have been able to dispense with a large
part Of the boiler space and coal bunk

man ships this saving Is all put into

reason Of operating in home waters
German ships are built with low
freeboard. and because OF the haze
which constantly hangs over the North
Sea can rarely be seen at a distance of
more than two miles. while English
ships, with their high freeboard, are

For this reason, says the admiral,

heavy armor more than equal English
ships with larger guns. In this experts
opinion, Germany, moving its fleet from
