ATLANTA, July 22.—Representative
Steed of Carroll hurled an Ink -well
across the hall of the house of repre
sentative? today at Representative
Buchanan of Early, who had Just call
ed him a "knave and a liar."
The Ink well missed Its mark and
Btruck a desk.
The Ink was scattered over a dozen
desks, notably those of Messrs. Martin
of Elbert and Richardson of Houston,
and came down In a shower on the
head of Representative Harden of
Chatham who had to retire to the
"wash room" and clean up.
No blood was spilled.
Both men made frantic efforts to get
at each other, but were seized by mem
bers and restrained while the speaker
took several minutes to quell the dis
order.
Mr. Steed arose from Mr. Daniel's
seat, near the center aisle, as soon as
tho Journal was read. Mr. Buchanan
was In his own seat on the right of the
speaker’s stand some distance away.
Mr. Steed spoke slowly and uh follows:
"Mr. Speaker, 1 rise to a question of
personal privilege. I had thought that
the little difference of a few days ago
between the gentleman from Early and
myself had passed, and that it would
not be necessary for me to consume fur
ther time of the house relative to a
personal matter. But after looking
over the papers, Mr. Speaker, and see
ing some statements which I presume
the gentleman from Early made and
which I did not catch when he made
them, because of some little confusion.
I feel that In Justice to myself 1 can
not rest under the odium. 1 am Impell
ed, Mr. Speaker, to resent with all the
manhood with which a beneficent Fa
ther has endowed me, the vile, uncalled
* for. unmanly, ungentlemnnly, untruth
ful assertion of the gentleman from
Early. In all that I li.tv done. In all
that I have said, tho gentleman from
Early lias provoked it. 1 rail at:it 1.>n.
Mr. Speaker, to tho statement, ’the
gcntlemena’s statement denotes a de
graded and malignant heart.'
‘‘Noav, Mr. Speaker. I am not going
lo dictate to the gentleman any opinion
whatsoever, that he may form of my
self, and I promise myself this, that I
will not use any undue influence on the
gentleman from Early to gain his af
fection or to win his enduring love. But
3 think, Mr. Speaker, that If he will In
vestigate my past life, both private and
public, he will And that that life hurls
pack the words Into the slimy pit and
foul mouth from which they Issued.
lAgnln, Mr. Speaker, 'He purposely mis
construed my statement and he has
made n personal and malignant fight
©n me since the bill was considered.’
"Now, Mr. Speaker, to any falr-
mlnderl man I will h ave this question
und will let him decide ns to my course
us to what I lmv" done. If I have act
ed Indiscreetly ,lf I have transgressed
the laws of rourtesyj transcended the
bounds of the course that any gentle
man has the privilege to pursue. I am
ready to make amends; but I say. Mr.
Speaker, that the statement published
here, if he made It, and I presume* he
did. I brand it ns malicious and nbso-
lutely f.iKe .m I Mr. Speaker, were
It not for tho courtesy I have for ev
ery member of this house 1 would use
far stronger terms than I have used.
The words are malicious and false and
the author Is a common falsifier."
Mr. Buchanan sprang up.
"You are a knave and a liar,” he
phouted.
Mr. Steed seised the bottle of Ink
that was on the desk and sent It
whizzing. Blue Ink flew over the
desks of a dozen members. Mr. Har
den of Chatham was In the line of the
fight and the Ink waa sprinkled nil over
his head.
Mr. Bteed started townrd Mr. Buch
anan and Mr. Buchanan started to
ward Bteed. A dozen legislators seiz
ed each belllgerant, while the speaker
ordered th-* s*-rg*-n.f -,t nm- :• t«< 1 -.11
his assistants to compel these mom-
b-rs *<> t.t !.*-ir • ..! • Tb** uj r* v
lasted for flve minutes, but order was
finally restored.
Just before noon Mr. Flynt from the
committee on rules reported the fol
lowing resolution:
"Resolved that It Is the sense of
this house that the words and conduct
of tb** g-M b-m I M fi mi < • Mr.
Bteed. and the gentleman from Early,
Mr. Buchanan, have ofTended the dig
nity of this house; and before any fur
ther action on this matter be taken
the house given an opportunity to both
gentleman to make apology to this
house."
Immediately Mr. Buchanan arose
and read the following:
1 Mr. Bpenker and gentlemen of the
house; I rise voluntarily to state to
you and this house my regret that I
should have violated or In any wise
Infringed upon the dignity of thin
honorable body, and I take pleasure In
apologizing to the speaker and this
house for any language or conduct in
controvsntlon of its rules.”
Mr. Steed read a similar apoloby.
Mr. Franklin of Washington moved
that the apologies be accepted. Th*»
motion prevailed, and the result was
received with applause.
The Settlement.
ATLANTA. July 22.—The difference*
that have existed for several days be
tween Representatives E. T. Bteed of
Carroll and W. A. Buchanon of Early
were amicably adjusted this afternoon
through the . Influence of mutual
friends, and friendly relations ha\«-
been restored between these gentle
men, much to the gratification of their
friends.
Today friends Messrs. Bteed and
Buchanon called upon them and a«ked

T<»u< hiinj the personal differences be
tween Hon. E. T. Steer] and olln. W.
A. Buchan nan, arising over a discus
sion of the Arlington Dispensary Bill
In the house, and which differences, as
friends of these gentlemen, we have
had under Investigation and considera
tion, we find as follows: While Mr.
Bteed was on the floor In opposition to
the bill Mr. Buchannan Interrupted
him with the remark that certain state
ments he was making misrepresented
the facts, and that Mr. Steed was mak
ing a personal fight on him.
Mr. Steed claims that he understood
Buchannan to state that he was know
ingly misrepresenting the facts, and
further that Mr. Buchannan was
charging him with allowing his ac
tions as a representative to be In
fluenced by personal feeling,
"And that his reply then to Mr.
Buchannan waa mode under this im
press I on.
"Mr. Steed has disclaimed to us any
personal feeling or animosity In the
matter, and further states that his tak
ing the floor to discuss the mntter wa:
at the request of members of the com
lnl’tw which had acted on th<* hill.
“Mr. Buchannan has disclaimed to
us the use of the word "knowingly” at
all, and that he use the word "misrep
resented” In a parliamentary manner
simply to take Issue as to the facts.
"We feel thoroughly convinced that
this unfortunate difference nrose en
tirely out of mutual misunderstand
ings, and Mr. Bteed having disclaimed
any element of personal antagonism
to Mr. Buchannan In his opposition to
the bill, and expressed regret at the
incident thnt occurred during this
morning's soslon. and Mr. Buchannan
having disclaimed the use of the word
"knowingly", or of having used the
term "misreprented" in an offensive
sense. It s*4»rns to us, with these mu
tual explanations, that there Is no
i real ground of offense to either party,
1 that each should retract charges
and recriminations made after the
misunderstanding arose.

Dr. Swallow, Nominee for Prosidcnt,

Formally Notified—The Responses.
ESOPUS, N. Y., July 22.—-Judge
Parker was Informed by the Associated
Press today of Senator Gorman's de
termination not to accept the chalr-
nshlp of the national committee.
William F. Sheehan, who was the
choice of many Eastern leaders, was
with Judge Parker at tho time. Ho
asked whether he would now per
mit his name to go before the meeting
of the national committee, to be held
at tho Hoffman house In New York oi
Tuesday next, and replied laughingly
Oh, nobody wants me for chairman.”
Then seriously he discussed briefly
his own position, making It plain that
he had not allowed his name to be con
sidered by party leaders and that he
stands firm In his refusal to serve ns
manager of the campaign. From his
attlthde he can no longer be regarded
as a possibility. August Belmont nlso
has asserted that he will not accept nn
active part in the campaign manage
ment. and thus Mr. Taggart Is the only
one of those put forward for the chair
manship who Is left In the race.
Leaders In the party who have vis
ited Rosemount have an id several
times that the selection of the chair
man would be the unhampered duty of
the national committee. Similar utter
ances have come from prominent Dem
ocrats who attended the recent confer
ences In New York, and the possibility
remains that out of the uncertainty
may be wrought some candidate, here
tofore not mentioned, who could at
once draw the support of all factions.
At Rosemount no upprehenslon Is
f.*lt because of Senator Gorman’s de
clination. He has attended the New
York conferences and has taken i
hearty Interest In the campaign. Over
and over again he has said he would
dt« anything In hts power for success,
and when selected for chairman he
has assurance of the cordial support of
the campaign managers.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 22.—Dr.
Silas C. Swallow of llnrrlshurg. Pa.,
and George W. Carroll of Tex as, Pro
hibition candidates for president and
vice-president of the Union, were for
mally notified of their nomination to
day.
W. Wolfenberger of Lincoln, Neb.,
chairman of tho recent national com
mittee. which met here In the same
hall, delivered the notification address
to Dr. Swallow, and Homer Castle of
Pittsburg notified Mr. Carroll. Re
spouses were made by both candidate.*
and National Chairman Stewart do
llvered tho closing speech. The ooca
mom bi might many prominent Prohibi
tionists of the country here.
Dr. Swallow in his response said:
"We leave It for you to determine
which Is the more capable, the gentle
manly and the highly courteous, but
short-haired and stub-nosed igcnt
who stands behind the bar and t

Taggart the Man.
NEW YOItk. July 22.—The an
nouncement from Washington that
Senator Gorman had reiterated his
declaration that he could not be chair
man of the national commute*? has
fdmpllfled the situation, according to
th** views of those who are earnestly
urging Thomas T. Taggart of Indian
apolis. and they express the belief that
he will be unanimously chosen chair
man by the national committee next
Tuesday. When th** latest declaration
of Senator Gorman Was communicated
to Mr. Taggart today- he showed that
the news was gratifying, us It coin
cided with his previous Information.
Jolm W. Kern of Indiana expressed his
satisfaction that the talk about Henator
Gorman would now he s**t at rest and
said that it removed any doubt about
the choice of Mr. Taggart.
Henator Ilalley of Texas has been one
of the most Insistent Taggart men. He
had assurances from Senator Gor
man, both before and after the con
vention, thdt the Maryland senator
would not accept the chairmanship.
Moreover, tho Texas senator takes tho
position that the West should not he
ignored and points out that both candi
dates are from tho Bast; the tempo
rary find permanent chairman of tho
nutlonal convention, and the chairman
of 111.' committee *.n pl.itfoi in wei
t the South, while no recognition
lever was given the Middle and fur
Western states. Under these condl-
tIon Mr. B ill**y thinks th** I** ist that
