HAVANA, July ga duel between
two newspaper publishers over political
differences, was fought near here yes
terday without bloodshed or satisfaction
to the principals.
Alfredo Hornedo, publisher of Ell Pals.
challenged Jose 1. Rivero, publisher of
Diario de la Marina, on the basis of an
editorial attack on Hornedo in Rivero's
paper. They fought with swords for
five periods without drawing blood and
the referee halted the encounter at
that point in accordance with Span
iSh rules. They refused to shake hands.
They retired to the Milagro's farm,
10 miles north Of here, and stripped to
the waist. Congressman, generals and
others high in official life looked on
anxiously as they stood toe to toe and
slashed at one another.
Rivero, SO, was the taller and be-
cause of his long reach had a slight
advantage of the shorter 46-year-old
Hornedo, but the latter's skill ball
anced it.
Several times it looked as though one
or the other of them might be seriously
if not fatally wounded.

Tomorrow, independence day, also
will be an anniversary that passes vir-
tually unnoticed for it was on July
that death came to three men who
had much to do with shaping the
destinies of this Government-John
Adams. Thomas Jefferson and James
Monroe.
Adams and Jefferson died almost at
the same hour on July 4, 1926; Monroe,
just five years later.
The coincidence is commented upon
by the George Washington Bicenten-
NAL Commission, which recalls how
closely interviewer the lives OF the
three were.
Adams was instrumental in having
the Continental Congress appoint Wash
ton as commander in chief Of the Rev.
oluticnary forces, later served as Wash
ington's Vice President and then was
himself elevated to the Presidency.
