The railroad committee of the house

committee.
The Mississippi grand jury has indicted
the Sullivan-Kilrain gang. A convic

Virginia Democrats.
The state democratic convention of
Virginia met at Richmond yesterday.
Much intereet naturally centers in the
proceedings of this body from the fact
j that it is the first state to nominate a full
ticket of etate officers since President
Harrison’s election, and the platform to
be adopted will be carefully scanned.
It may, too, give some idea ae to the
feeling of the people of Virginia in re
gard to the next presidential election,
three years hence. When the name of
Grover Cleveland was mentioned yester
day by the temporary chairman in his
address there was much applause. This
does not go to show that the people of
Virginia are in favor of Mr. Cleveland as
the next democratic candidate for the
presidency, but rather that th“y honor
and respect him for the manly and honest
fight he made for the people one year
ago.
The Virginia democrats will make no
mistake in their nomination for gov
ernor, and though the republican nomi
nee will in ail probaoility be General
Mahone, backed by the administration
and the federal patronage, and Bos-
Quay’s “boodle,” it is safe to say that the
standard bearer the convention will
name will lead the democrats to victory
and snow Biily Mahone under for good.
The proceeding? of the convention will
be found in our telegraphic columns, and
will prove to be interesting reading to
all true democrats.
Some of our brethren of the prees are
in dined to poke fun at the Calhoun-
Williamson “affair of honor.” We are
Bure that Messrs. Calhoun and William
son do not see anything to laugh at about
this matter. If we remember aright,
the extreme penalty for fighting a duel in
Alabama is two years’ confinement in
the penitentiary.
HEROES OF HONOR’S FIELD.
Ihe Pniladelpbia Record says: It has
leaked out that Dr. E. A. Dimmick, a
dentist, just appointed consul at Barba-
does, in the West Indies, is a nephew by
marriage of the caustic “Gail Hamilton,”
kinswoman of the secretary of state.
Thus the Blaine family, patterning after
the illustrious nepotist in the white
house, is gradually taking care of its rela
tives. Walker Blaine, a eon of the sec
retary, is his confidential assistant; a
brother holds a sinecure in the depart
ment of agriculture, and a son-in-law has
a snug place in the army. Dr. Dimmick
makes the fourth of the family to be
taken care of at public expense. At this
rate not a Blaine will be left to struggle
along in private i;fe in two or three
years.
The Cincinnati Enquirer thinks the
democrats will have more than a fighting
chance to carry the election in Ohio this
year. The Enquirer gives these reasons
why “republican defeat is the logic of
the situation:”
1. Because the party is irretrievably
committed to perpetual war taxes and
tne pestilential brood of trusts they
hatch.
2. Because, white pretending to favor
ome rule for Ireland, it denies home
rule to Cincinnati and all the leading
cities of Ohio.
3. Because, in the Dame of economy,
the state administration has been spend
thrift, and dishonesty concealed this fact
by a system of advance drafts on the
county treasuries, which has created a
deficiency equal to almost, it not quite,
50 per cent of the total annual revenues
of the state.
4. Because, in utter violation of the
constitution, the legislature and state
government impaired the sinking fund
to meet current expenditures.
Clarkson Branded a Liar.
The Atlanta Constitution’s reply to
First Assistant Postmaster-General Clark
son is woi ih reading. Clarkson, in ex
pressing himself upon the Lewis affair in
Atlanta, seems to have disregarded facts
entirely. For years this man Clarkson
has been engaged in slandering the south
and southern people through his paper,
the Iowa State Register, one of the most
bitter partisan organs published in this
country.
Clarkson was put in office because he
had done a great deal of dirty work for
the republican party. Aside from the
lies he told in his paper during the late
campaign, Clarkson committed the crime
of theft, being one of the parties who
stole the mail list of the New York
Voice. The Voice fully exposed Clark
son and the rest of the gang implicated
in the steal.
Coming before the puolic with a
record like this, it is not likely that any
thing Clarkson says will be believed by
thinking people.
One Plain Thing to Do.
The New York Saturday Globe is a
paper which has the beet interests of the
people at heart. It is thoroughly demo
cratic, and does not fail to speak out in
approval of the principles for which that
party contended in the late national
campaign. The Globe very sensibly and
truly eaye:
For the anti-trust party there is one
plain thing to do. They should resolve
in every contention in favor of the un
qualified repeal of the tariff duty upon
every article whatever which has been
the subject of an unlawful and extortion
ate trust. Not one of them should be
spared; not one of them is entitled to the
smallest consideration. In each and
every instance the trust is
a criminal conspiracy against
humanity, contrary to the spirit
of the common law, contrary to the
statute in most states, contrary to the
public policy of every civilized country,
and especially contrary to the whole
genius of American institutions. Take
from the trust the monopoly duty, im
posed and maintained for the benefit of
the trust by the trust party, and you
have taken its life-blood. This is so
plain that it needs no argument or insist
ence. Every man who can count two
Wall Street’s Interest in the Calhoim-
Williamson Unel.
New York, August 13.—The Times
publishes the following concerning the
Georgia duelists:
Wail street has the habit of investing in
lots of odd and unusual things, but it is
not often that Wall street can boast of a
direct interest in a duel, a real duel, with
all the paraphernalia of seconds and pis
tols, shootings, and—narrow escapes.
Just now, however, Wail street has this
delight and this glory, and Wall street is
correspondingly hapoy and elated. The
dispatches puodshea oy the Times, telling
of certain heroic goings-on down in Geor
gia within the last two or three days, have
I found reaaeia who read with avidity in the
j stock exchange district. These dispatchf 3
I have told of the “meeting” and the
! markmanship of a brace of Wail street
j notables, J. D. Williamson and Pat Cal
houn.
Now, Mr. Williamson, who, after the
I southern fashion, is a colonel, is an
| eiderly, portly person, who is spoken of
| down in Chattanooga as “one of our first
citizens.” He is a genial gentleman, who
might be supposed to have something to
do with the manipulation of the secret
workings of the universe, so austere and
impressive is he—a southern gentleman,
b’ gawd, sah! In Wall street he is the
reoresemative of the Rome and.Carrollton
railroad, an enterprise that has back of it
northern capitalists of the calibre of R. K.
Dow. Simon Borg and Alfred Suiiy.
Pat Calhoun? Oh, he’s a young fellow
barely turned thirty, the grandson of dead
and gone John C. Calnoun, who, in quite
the Wall street way, used to have a corner
on the constitution as it ought to be from
the Dixie point of view. A live and push
ing and brainy young man is Pat Calhoun;
he is clever and he is able.
A dozen years ago when he was “of age”
he nadn’t a dollar in the world; there’s a
quarter of a million in his own pocket
now. Fairly successful? Rather. Down
in Wall street there aie his friends, his
business associates, his backets; Jonn H.
Inman, General Sum Thomas, Mayer and
Emanuel Lehman, and Calvin S. Brice—
citizens who not only can, but who every
dav or two do write, theft checks for a
million or more, as the fancy may happen
to strike them. Pat Crlhoun ’= a lawyer,
and he represents for nice portly retainers
such corporations as the Central railroad
oi Georg.a and the great railway cystem
known rsthe Richmond Terminal Com
pany. It is on the cards, too, that he will
toon be president of the latter corpora
tion, by far the biggest and most powerful
ia’'way aggregation in ah the south. John
H. Inman, who now is president, is anx
ious to retire from the official cares, and
Pat CalhouD is his own choice for a suc
cessor.
It happens—alas, it is so often so in Wall
street—that the interests of one set of
millionaires are against those of one other
set. The Williamson contingent is at odds
with the Calhoun contingent, and a quiet
but determined fight between the two,
transferred from v/ali street to southern
fields, has precipitated the present Wall
street animation, the duel- with its pistols
and palaver, its bullets and—explanations.
Mr. Calhoun, for h's side, remarked that
Mr. Wiliiamson had done something
wicked; Mr. Williamson, for his side,
averred that Mr. Calhoun was a traducfer
of a good man and must atone for
his sacrilege in blood. Then ambled
forward a brace of accommo
dating Georgia patriots happy; to
help somebody else get shot; seconds the
new arrivals called themselves, and they
captured a doctor and hired a rai’way car
in a jiffy, tumbling over one another in
their anxiety to expedite the operation of
honor’s code. Mr. Wiliiamson still thirsted
for gore, and Mr. Calhoun was amicably
ready to do a little slaying. Then the
party in sweet fraternal spirit piled to
gether into a railway car and scooted off'
to a wood over toward the Alabama state
line, smoking home-made cigars, drink'ng
native wine, cracking Atlanta jokes, and
otherwise working themselves up to that
brave mood where murder is a pleasantry
and being killed a pastime.
On the field of honor (which, being in
terpreted, means in a swamp where sap
lings were thick enough to keep stray bul
lets from being wasted; the duelists are
put through a distressing order of sacrifices;
the seconds show each gentleman how to
shoot; the doctor ventures a few hysterical
ebulitions, displays his collection of lan
cets, spreads out abundant bandages, and
goes through a lot of other antics just ?s
if there really was a chance for biood,
real blood. Then Mr. Calhoun is marched
in one direction and Mr. Williamson in
another until they are ten paces apart;
they face; Mr. Calhoun is in an open
space—;his is the chronicle of an occult
personal observer—while Mr. Williamson
stands where the “immodest limbs of a
scrub oak touches his face.” The stationed
gentlemen fondle their self cocking pistols.
It is all as entertaining as a page of your
French friend, Gaboriau. This is a glimpse
of the way a local poet sends north the
fervid tale fer Wall street edification:
“On the Field in Georgia, August 10.
—Daylight has gone and darkness is here.
The train comes to halt. * * * The
cowcatcher is actually in a cut. Dense,
heavy timbers are on all sides. Trees, big
and little, old and young, are to be seen
only. * * * A tnick, heavy cloud
hangs over everything, but morning is
rapidly drawing near, and the full moon
showsoccasionaily. There is a deep feel
ing of awe over all. Over all, possibly,
except two gentlemen who are so soon tg
attempt eaon other’s lite.”
It takes a good deal 3f delirium tremens
rhetoric like this to complete the touch
ing tale. But, the wordy agony expedited,
it is related that there was a command
given to fire. Mr. Williamson went at it
industriously. He had five shots in his
pistol; he fired them all, and he did de
struction royally. Nothing of size any
where in the vicinity escaped except Mr.
Calhoun, who, ia the easy fashion of a
gentleman at work by the day, shot only
once. Just what it was Mr. Calhoun shot
at isn’t yet settled, and won’t be until after
a good many further arguments by the
seconds and the doctors, who, when there
came a lull in the fireworks, crawled out
from behind the locomotive to survey the
field of battle. They found Mr. Calhoun
calmly explaining to Mr. Williamson that
the Calhoun pistol had still four more bul
lets, and that the Williamson family would
soon be in tatters unless there was an
ample apology straightway forthcoming.
Mr. Williamson, having noticed how effec
tively Mr. Calhoun had done the first part
of his shooting, was heroically urging
him to go right along in his bullet waiting
career; Sir. wiliiamson was ready to die in
was as pretty * spectacle as ever Bowery
gallery boy went uproarious over.
Mr. Williamson wasn’t too proud, how
ever, to consent to a little discussion of
current matters and things, and he soon
found out that Pat Calhoun was just about
the amiablest man of his acquaintance,and
Mr. Calhoun was good enough to ac
knowledge openly that he would be
pained to kill so pleasing a person as J. D.
Williamson. They shook hands. Pat
Calhoun’B four remaining barrels were
“emptied in the air.” The doctor picked
up his bistouries and bandages, the se
conds remarked that honor was avenged,
the locomotive gave a toot or two, and
back hastened the brave sons of Dixie to
civilization in the streets of the townl of
Henry Grady.
Governor Gordon, of Georgia, and Gov
ernor Seay, of Alabama, are represented,
in special dispatches from the south, as
much distressed over this duel; each gov
ernor is sure the duel was fought in the
other governor’s state, and each governor
is sure the other governor ought to punish
somebody. Colonel John C. Caihoun, who
is Pat Calhoun’s brother, and the presi
dent of New York’s southern society,
came hurrying yesterday to New York
from Montreal, where he has been sum
mering. He was afraid Pat might have
devastated the whole state of Georgia and
be in need of a brother’s helping hand.
The facts, as he was able to find them in
Wall street, ended all apprehensions over
the family’s distinctiveness.
A MERCENARY LOVER.
An Italian’s Experience With Another
Man’s Sweetheart.
Tacoma, W. T., August 10.—A singular
case was tried here to-day in a justice’s
court. Santos Cordova, an Italian, was
betrothed to a pretty dark-eyed girl of
sixteen of his own nationality. He clothed
her and was educating her. About the l r t
of April Martin Petrick met the girl and
became infatuated with her. She resisted
his advances, pleading Cordova’s claim
upon her affections. Petrick asked Santos
what he would take for her love and affec
tion. He set the price at $150. The bargain
was made April 1. Petrick paid Cordova
550 ia cash and issued notes for flOO, paya
ble in two years, for which Cordova gave
up all claim on the maiden.
Petrick was happy after the transfer, and
expected the maiden to lavish upon him
the same affection that she had snown for
Cordova. But he got tired of the bargain
and wanted to trade back. He finally se
cured the note for 5100, but Cordova was
obstinate as to ihe £50 that had been paid
in cash. A suit was the result. The court
decided that an illegal contract had been
made, che terms of which could not be en
forced. Cordova won the suit, and the
plaintiff had to pay the costs. The maidtn
thinks that Petries had a mercenary inter
est in her affection, and still clings to San
tos, her first love.
CHICAGO’S HAUNTED HOUSE.
Agent Turner Has a Very Uuroiuautie Ex
planation of the Mystery.
The north-siders take a great deal of in
terest in the gnost-haunted house on Bei
den avenue, where Dr. Rowe lives. Yes
terday prooaoly a thousand persors
viewed the house, and most of the time
the street in front of it was blocked with
people. W T hec evening came the crowd
grew larger, and even the flashing light
ning and the threatening rainstorm failed
to drive all the people away. It was no
ticed that the policeman on the beat
passed by on the other side. Dr. Rowe
went off to a Sunday school picnic at
Llewellyn park and took his family along,
leaving the housekeeper alone. She sain
she was not a bit afraid, for she did no:
believe in ghosts, and besides, the strange
noises were never neard in the daytime or
oefore the midnight hour.
Tne house is located at 394 Beiden ave
nue and is one of a pair. Tne houses are
two story and basement bricks, with fiat
roofs, and are shaded in front by large
trees. Dr. Rowe returned at six o'clock
in the afternoon. He regretted exceed
ingly that the strange noises heard in che
house had been told about and described
in the newspapers. He said he did not
believe that ghosts caused the noises, and
said further that he did not believe in
ghosts at all. He had heard queer noises,
very unusual noises, in the upper naiiway.
When he first neard them he thought a
burglar was in the house, and he looked
through all the rooms, finding all che
doors and windows fastened and every
thing undisturbed. He said he would not
pretend to account for tne noises.
But Mr. Turner, of Turner & Co., real
estate dealers, of 172 Lincoln avenue,
thinks he can account for the mysterious
noises. He disclaims the ghost the fry
and argues that someoody made tne
noises to frighten Dr. Rowe ana make
him move out.
“I am the agent for the house,” said Mr.
Turner last night, “and it is owned by a
Mrs. McMillan, a widow, who lives some
where on Fifty-fifth street in Hyde park.
Now, she is a very estimable lady, who
wouldn’t do anything that wasn’t per
fectly square. That property ws? owned,
up to about a year ago, by Mrs. George
Wilson, and Mrs. McMillan purchased it
at that time for something under $7000.
“Mrs. Wilson’s husband is very well
known here in Chicago. He keeps a sa
loon on Clark and South Water streets
that is patronized by a good many men in
a day. Well, a little while after Mrs.
Wilson sold the house on Beiden avenue,
property values in the neighborhood be
gan to slide up in a great hurry, and the
place was soon worth a great deal more
than she had sold it for. Now, what do
you think that Mrs. Wilson did? She very
coolly repudiated the sale, and declared
there wasn’t any sale, and that
the alleged sale was a fraud.
A litigation was commenced and
is still dragging on in tha courts, with
Mrs. Wilson on one side of the fence and
Mrs. McMillan on the other. Tne court
recognizes the fact that Mrs. McMillan
had probably the right side of the lawsuit
and gave her temporary possession of the
property.
“We rented the house to Dr. Weaver,
who W8s in there some time, but moved
out last October ana went to practice on
Centre street, near Lincoln avenue. I
went over there to see nim this afternoon
about the gnost business. He says that in
all the time be was there he never saw a
ghost or heard a ghostly souad. rio far as
he knows there never was anybody killed
in the house and never anybouy died
there. But he did fell me that whi'e he
was in the house Mrs. Wilson came around
there with a lease and tried to make him
sign it, but he would not do it. That
shows how he acts and there’s the secret
of this whole business. I tell you if any
body’s been dressing in white and flying
over housetops up there it’s Mrs. Wilson;
and if anybody has been firing pistols anu
moving chairs and rattling doors and fall
ing down stairs ia Dr. Rowe’s house it is
Mrs. Wilson or somebody she sent. De
pend upon it, 1 am right ia the matter,
and she is at the bottom of the whole
business. Why the house was vacant
from October all last winter through that
woman’s scheming.”
“But, Mr. Turner, how could Mrs. Wil
son spirit herself through a closed door
into Dr. Rowe’s upstairs hallway and
then fire pistols, toss about chairs, tumble
downstairs and escape before the doctor
could get out in the hallway with a light?”
“I don’t know anything about how she
did it, but depend on it, sue did do it. It’s
not ghosts; its Mrs. Wilson.”
Although Mr. Turner’s theory supplies
a motive, it does not explain the myste
rious noises. The Rowe family believe it
would not have been possible for any per
son to remain concealed in the house
Dight after night and escape discovery.
One night Dr. Rowe did not go to bed at
ail and heard the noises in the hallway as
usual. The moment he heard : he sound
of footsteps on the stairs he rushed out
with a lamp in his hand, but found no
body ana nothing that could have caused
the noise.— Chicago News.
