I HE WANTS TO FIGHT
(SOUTH CAROLINA CADET CHAL|
LENGES A DOCTOR.
ICAUSE OF THE TROUBLE
II The Doctor Criticised tlie Horsemanship
of the Cadet, Who Bends Challenge,
Which is Turned Over to
the Commandant of the West Point
Academy.
The New York World correspondf
ent at Highland Falls says there isn't
I going to be any duel at West Point
between Senior Cadet Robert McGoun
Littlejohn, right tackle of the
football team, boxer, wrestler and
South Carolinian, and spectacled
Hi young Dr. Thomas McMonamin of
Highland Falls?that 1b, if the theory
that it takes two to make a scrap,
j holds good.
Dr. McMenamin who had the te
meniy 10 criticise me iioibciiimitmip
of the senior cadet as an "amateurish"
and for so doing received a hot
letter of challenge (and promptly
sent the letter with one of his own
to the senior cadet's strict disciplinarian
boss, Major-Gen. Barry, Superintendent
of West Point), told a
correspondent for The World that although
fighting might be the profession
of Cadet Llttlejohn, it wasn't
his, the doctor's.
Major-Gen. Barry would not discuss
the affair and Senior Cadet Llttlejohn
is standing severely on his
dignity with perhaps a twitter of apprehension
over what may be the official
outcome of Dr. McfMenamin's
action in placing his letter of chalj
lengo in his superior's hands. Lit/
tlejohn is duo to bo graduated this
Juno. It isn't likely, however, that
J the invocation of the code duello by
the Southern cadet will come to a
sorious turn. Dr. 'McMenamln Is not
inclined to take the affair very seriI
ously. He said to the reporter for
Tho World:
i "Major-General Barry sent one of
his aides this morning to talk over
tho matter with me. I told him that
! of course the letter of cnallengo came
all unexpectedly and that It would
have hardly been worth noticing at
all except that I am frequently called
f in a professional way to West Point
and have frequented social affairs
f there.
"The prospect of my going up
there some fine day to have a young
giant of a football player, boxer and
wrestler give mo a poke In the eye
or otherwise vent his wram over
an imaginary case of wounded pride
and honor did not please me. , Of
course the Idea of fignting a duel In
these days is too absurd to discuss
The matter was really altogether trivial
save as young Littlejohn magnified
it by writing mo a threatening
letter.
"I did, however, tell Major-Gen.
Barry's aide that while I did not care
to press charges against the cadet, I
would expect an apology from him. I
think such an apology will be forthcoming.
I know it should. LittleJohn
is a crack athlete and something
of a leader among the students, and
I think you may lay his hair-trigger
wrath and indignation to ?wi attack
of 'swell-headedness' common to
youth.
"Littlejohn was riding his horse
through the town last Saturday,
when tho animal shied and began to
dance all over the road with him. I
was sitting in my motor car waiting
for my brother, Dr. Frank McMenamin,
who was talking with a lady on
tho opposito corner. I was alarmed
to soo the cadet's horse going scrambling
and backing into my brother.
Duo of tho animal's hind hoofs struck
my brother 011 the foot, bruising him
painfully.
"I was naturally alarmed and
shouted somewhat heatedly at the
young man. I don't recall exactly
what I said, but 1 guess It was some

that he shouldn't ride 0110. When ho
got the horse under control he galloped
up to my car as I was helping
my brother in and shouted to me that
I was to understand that I was to J
mind my own business. ITo was a
very angry young man undoubtedly]
It is not true that ho subsequently
rode into town and abused me.

I REBELS WERE ROUTED
MANY OF THEM KILLED IN VAIN
ATTEMPT ON EPIC.
?
Mexican Regulars Fought Fiercely
And Showed Consummate Skill in
Taking Advantage of Opportunities
A dispatch from Epic. Mexico, eays (
with 2220 dead, and more than this
number wounded, many of whom
were unable to crawl from the field
of battle. 2.000 rebels, under command
of Manuel Guerrero, have been
completely routed by the garrison of
that city, aided by the police of the
local commandery.
The ^attack began April 24, the
rebels operating In the Hill surrounding
Tepic on tho day previous '
and demanding the surrender of the '
garrison commanded by Col. Martin (
Espinonsa. Wednesday afternoon ,
Col. EsplnoBa replied to the messenger
from tho rebel chief with a can
non hall which, landing on a flat
topped hill on which a number of the
rebels had gathered, killed three of ,
them and wounded two others.
At three o'clock in tho afternoon
the rebels, leaving their horses in
the hills and crawling the several
hundred yards across the plain, attacked
Tepic from the north, east
and west. In the garrison were 315
cavalrymen, all dismounted, a small
body of State police, mounted, and
110 from tho city's force, a total of
4 75 loyal federals.
Col. Esponisa sent a part of the
State police mounted on tho best
horses In town to each of the three
main roads to receive and return
the first fire of tho rebels. Behind
them were placed six squads of regulars,
50 men in each squad, one
body just behind each part of cavalry.
On the roof of tho cuartel throe
men were operating the three pounder,
throwing solid shots into the rebols
as they were approaching while
in each of the three mam entrance
ways a rapid fire gun was planted to
reinforce the cavalry ana tno foot
soldiers. The steady fire of the three
pounaer aia mucn effective wotk in
the ranks of the approaching rebels
and they were delayed until the garrison
had transported abundant ammunition
to all the outposts and
completed all necessary preparations
for the battle.
Then at live o'clock the bugles in
the cathedral tower sounded the call
of battle.
The young gunners of the federal
army had the rango and the elevation
rebels began to fall by ones and twos,
here and there, then by squads as
the assailants rose from tne furrows
of the fallow field to run forward 10
yards and then to drop again into
the sheltering earth.
Despite the hail of destruction
ranging through the ranks the rebels
rushed on until they were within 200
'yards of the stone wall which hid the
federals' three guns and tne waiting
cavalry.
Then for one instant the song of
the rapid fire ceasod. Tne cavalrymen,
sabres and carbines sheathed,
but revolvers in hand and bridle
reins hung over their necks, leaped
to meet the foe.
It was a short sally but it took the
rebels by surprise, and many of then?
fell. Then the sabres were drawn
and tho mounted police quickly cut
their way to the second line of rebels
where they turned and amid a hail
of bullets galloped to the cover of
the walla.
The rebels, thinking the force of
the garrison had retreated Into the
cuartel, followed In a lieadlon charge.
Then from machine guns and rifles
well concealed behind thick stone
wall same a leaden rain Miat mowed
dow the relxds.
But 011 they camo. Fresh hands
of attackers poured out of the hills
and were led by Guerrerro himself.
This seemed to inspire the rebels and
they gainet almost, tho entrance to
tho town before the hail of bullets
forced tliem to drop to their faces.
Then under cover of heavy firing
by tho infantry, the calvalry made its
way to tho cuartel, gathering up as it
went the foot police in the various
plazas. Once at tho cuartel tho
mounted men left their horses In the
protected patio, got more cartridges
nd scattered themselves on the house
tops to cover the oncoming infantry,
still fighting aglnst the rebels on tho
outskirts of tho town.
The bugler then sounded retreat
and tho Infantry gained the cuartel,
Into this trap the rebels fell as easily
as they had fallen into the first.
They turned to fiec hut were prevented
by those rushing up behind,

BRINGS IN BODIES
VICTIMS OF THE GREAT OCEAN
TRAGEDY FOUND
?
FUNERAL SHIP ARRIVES
Of the Two Hundred and Forty-Seven
Corpses Recovered, Only One Hundred
and Ninety Are Taken to
Port, the Body of Col. Jolin Jacob
Astor Being One.
The cable ship Mackay-Bennett,
which came with 190 of the White
Star liner Titanic's dead into Halifax
Tuesday, flnst cast gloom over the
city by her mere presence as a funeral
ship, then sent a shock through
those waiting here for bodies with
the announcement of her commander
that 07 of those reported by wireless
as identified had of necessity been
cast again into the sea.
Yet none, not even the few here
whose friends or relatives had thus
been recommitted to the Atlantic, expressed
any criticism of Capt. Lardner's
action, believing him sincere in
his explanation that lack of space on
board, shortage of embalming materials
and the mutilation of bodie?
were solely responsible for his course.
That there* was no favoritism
shown in the reburlal, in that the
bodies of prominent persons were not
kept aboard to the exclusion of the
more humble, is indicated by the
White Star lino's announcement that
among those bodies sunk again was
that of George D. Widener, the Philadelphia
capitalist. Although this
appears to bo a mistake In that Mr.
Wldener's son, now here, believes
from Capt. Lardner's description that
the body was that of his father's valet,
the name Widener stands on the
official list of reburied as issued by
the White Star line late today.
The one great hope held out to the
bereaved tonight was the fact that
there are stretched in the rough pine
coffins in the morgo 60 bodies for
which there was no claimant. Dy
morning all will have been prepared
for close scrutiny and persons who
found only bitter disappointment in
the death house today will go back
tomorrow prepared to exhaust every
resource before turning homeward.
A majority of those cast again into
the sea were members of the TItanic's
crew and second and third class passengers.
Eliminating Mr. Widener's
name from the list there remains, so
far as can be checked up from the
data here, the name of only one first
class passenger recommitted. He
was Frederick Sutton of Philadelphia.
Reginald Hale was among the
second cabin passengers.
Perhaps never was an ocean event
so fraught with gruesome .aspects
marking a closing chapter in the
greatest sea disaster in history attended
with more respectful silence
and lack of morbid curiosity than
was the docking or the Macaay-uennett
today.
Not half dozen of those actually
concerned visited the pier proper and
of the general public not more than
200. They stood in silence overlooking
the terrace into the navy
dock yard 3 0 yards away. They
could see nothing but the upper
structure of the Mackay-Bennett,
tents housing the coffins and a canvas
lane in which the dead were being
carried to the long file of undertakers'
wagons for transfer to the
morgue.
It was nearly 4 o'clock when the
claimants of bodies began to arrive
there by twos and threes. Nicholas
Diddle of Philadelphia, who accompanied
Vincent Astor here in a. private
car, went alone to identify the
body of Col. Astor, and It was the
first prepared for removal to New
York.
The body of Isador Straus a few
minutes later was turned over to
Maurice Rothschild of New York,
and in quick succession with little
or no ceremony, the bodies of Frank
D. 'Millet, the artist, H. J. Allison
of Montreal, and others who wero
given in charge of friends. Dy tomorrow
all of those claimed will bo
on their way home for burial.
The slight scrutiny of the unidentified
tonight led to what may mean
tho identification of two of the victims.
One of t.hoso whose name was
not learned, said ho recognized one
of the bodies as that of J. F. P. Clark,
assistant purser of tho Titanic, while
letters found on another body bore
the name of Anhhr White. Tho letters
had boon mailed from Newark,
N. J.
There aro only fivo women's bodies
among the unidentified. As one of
them appears to bo that of a Swedish
woman and tho other four those of
Italians, there is little hopo appar
ently of recovering tlio body of Mrs.
Straus.
A baby girl of about two year lies
among tho unclaimed and nameless.
Of all the bodies picked up hers was
tho only one that tho waves bore
without aid of a lif? belt.
Despite predictions to the contrary
nearly all of the bodies bore Indications
that the victims had died swiftly
If not ajmoat painlessly. In many
cases their features were calm and

FLAG GALLED DIRTY RAG
KED BAN NEK OF ANARCKY DISPLACED
OLD GLORY.
Stars and Stripes Torn Down and
Trampled Under Foot at Meeting
of Socialists and Workers* Union.
The Stars and Stripes were torn
down and trampled under foot and a
red flag substituted during a fierce
fight at a May Day meeting of the
Socialist party and affiliated unions
in Union Square Park, New York,
late Wednesday. That a serious pan-1
ic did not ensue Is believed to have
been due to the fact that thousands
of persons on the outskirts of the
crowd did not know what the troublo
was.
Responsibility for the tearing
down of the flag is disclaimed by the
Socialists, who assert that members
of the Industrial Workers of the
World committed the act. The Socialist
representatives on the platj
form appear to have done their best
to protect the national colors.
The troublo started at the conclusion
of a parade of 8,000 men and
women, who gathered in the park for
speech-making. Red banners, the
emblems of Socialism, already adorned
the speakers' platform and the
band was playing the "Marseillaise"
when the Stars and Stripes were carried
to the stand as the first speaker
was about to be introduced.
Instantly there was the wildest excitement.
"Take that dirty rag
down," went up a cry from the crowd.
But those on the platform held their
ground and some with cooler heads
tried to quiet the tumult that had
broken out.
"Wo don't recognize that flag,"
cried a man in front as he tried to
reach the platform. That cry was
taken up by others, a number of
whom fought their way to the platform.
Those on the platform tried
to protect the flag and a fist fight
resulted, in which a lone policeman
was the only officer who figured. His
club knocked three men down. Sevoral
men were tossed bodily over the
platform rail Into the crowd. Bloody
faces were numerous.
The big American flag was finally
torn down and hurled to the ground.
Miss Caroline Dexter, a member of
the Socialist party, a tall muscular
woman, elbowed her way to where
the fallen banner lay.
"Men like you ought to bo shot,"
she cried as she gathered up the flag.
She met no resistance and carried the
flag home with her. Wltn nothing
but red banners to decorato the platform
the meeting proceeded, but the
programme as arranged by the Socialist
party had to bo given up and
the speakers were mostly from among
the ranks of the Industrial Workers
of the World.

to See Their Child, Custody of 1
Whom Had Heen Granted Wife by
Judge Shi pp. <
Magistrate J. P. Oibrfon, of Ben- '
nettsville, acting coroner, held an (
inquest over the body of Lecy Quick
Tuesday night, and after taking testimony
the jury returned a verdict 1
that the deceased came to her death ,
from the effects of a gunshot wound,
the gun being in the hands of Elijah
Quick.
Elijah Quick and his wife separat
ed about the first of January. They 1
were then living south of Bennettsville.
Sho took the child, then about '
18 months old, to live with her at
McColl and began to work in the
cotton mill. Elijah Quick went to
McColl and got possession of the
child.
The mother began habeas corpus
proceedings and it was decreed by
Judge Shipp that the mother should
have the custody of the child for
four years, the father in the meantime
to have the privilege of seeing
the child at any and all reasonable
hours, and the father also to have the
right at the expiration of four years
to apply for the custody of the child.

that he trusted that this arrangement
would bring about a reconciliation

It seems that Elijah Quick had
moved into Adamsville Township,
about eight or nine miles northeast
of Benntttsville, and that ho was at
the home of the mother of his wife,
with whom the child was then staying.
The only eye-witness, Mrs.
Frances Pate, the mother of the deceased
woman, said:
"She came here this morning before
11 o'clock. I had the child
and she came to see the baby. About
5 o'clock this afternoon sho started
to go home. Elijah begged her to
stay and not go back. She told him
that they had had trouble and if she
stayed that the same old trouble
would happen again, and that she
thought that she had better go. I
heard them talking. I was in another
room. I thought from what I
heard that he was getting his gun.
I went in the room and asked him
what he meant. My daughter was on
her knees begging him not to kill
her; said that sho would stay. While
on her knees he shot her in the left
hand. She screamed and ran out
into the yard. I walked out in the
yard. I was going part of the way
with her. Elijah fired the second
time. Tin nnt another Hhell in Mm
Kun. He walked on the ground
and was near enough to touch her
with the gun. She fell Instantly, did
not speak, died at once."
It seems that Quick then left the
house and started down the road and
was met by Messrs. W. C. Adams and
R. J. Adams. Mr. R. J. Adams stated
that Quick told him that he had
killed his wife; said sho would not
stay with him, and he had rather be
dead than be without her. Quick is
in jail here.

PLEASES GOV. BLEASE
SAYS HE HAS RECEIVED GOOD
NEWS FROM THE CLUBS.
(
? '
But the Published Returns from Dif.
. ferent Parts of the State Were in
IPavnr f\t JnnPfi.
The Columbia correspondent of
:ho News and Courier says Governor
Blease, in conversation Monday
morning on the result of the Demojratic
club meetings, expressed hlmjelf
as pleased with the results. H?
said that ho had received good news
md that ho would be a delegate to
die State Convention from Newberry
County and a delegation friendly to
biin would come along. He said that
reports from clubs friendly to him,
which hadn't appeared in the papers,
brought good news and he talks confirently
of tho outcome.
Charleston County seems to be for
Jones. Out of twelve delegates
elected by tho Alcaln. The Fork and
Harmony clubs ten are for Jones,
one is for the Governor and one is
doubtful. Summerton hjas already
reported a solid delegation for Judge
Jones, and it seems from reports
that Governor Blease fared equally
as bad throughout the county.
In '.Manning the Farmer's Platform
Club, a club organized In the
early nineties, and composed of
Tilmanites, with a delegation of
twenty-three to the County Convention,
gave Judge Jones seventeen, *
Please five and one in doubt. The
other two Manning clubs, Clarendon
and Manning, gave Judge Jones seven
and six, respectively, while Governor
Please got none. One significant
fact was the defeat of Senator
Appelt as a delegate from the Farmers'
Platform Club. Senator Appelt
is a strong supporter of the Governor.
A motion In the Dillon Club that
the chair appoint a committee of five
to name delegates to the county convention,
coming from Dr. J. H. Hauler,
a pronounced friend of Judge
Jones was a challenge to the other
side and Mr. William Murchison a
staunch supporter of Governor Please
declaring that this motion being an
attempt to override the prerogative
cf the individual member of the meeting,
moved that Dr. llamer's motion
be tabled.
This at once became the issue between
the opposing factions and as
the vote on Mr. Murchison's motion
to tabio would aflix a correct idea of
the situation it was awaited with intonso
interest. The result was as
gratifying to the friends of Judge
Jones as it was disappointing to those
of Governor Blease. Mr. Murchison'a
motion to table was lost by an overwhelming
vote. The chair appointed
on this committee three for Jones
and two for Blease, the delegation
named by it to go to the convention,
2 3 to 7 in favor of Judge Jones.
The Laurens Club, Darlington
County, don't want Blease or Jones
for Governor. The Gubernatorial
contest, or the Presidential contest,
was not discussed in the meeting, but
the sentiment doosn't seem to be in
favor or neither candidate for Governor.
A majority expressed themselves
as wanting the third man to
enter the contest for Governor. The
club was opposed to sending instructed
delegates to the State Convention
for any special Presidential candidate,
although the sentiment seemed
to be in favor of Wilson, if Biryan
cannot be nominated.
The Conway Demcratic Club met.
with something over eighty members
present. L. II. Burroughs was elected
chairman and J. N. Jenrette secretary
of tBo club. Twenty delegates
were chosen for the county conventtion
which meets on May 6. There
were in evidence two tickets at the
meeting representing nioro or less
'Bleaseism" and "anti-Bleaseism."
The latter were in the majority and
elected every delegate to the county
convention.
This is the only report from Horry
County in Columbia.
It, is reported that Lowndes J.
Browning was defeated as a delegate
to the Union County Convention and
a straight Rlease ticket selected.
Mr. Browning is a eanidate for delegnte-at-largo
to Baltimore.
in Anderson the Jones delegates
are in the majority, as it is the case
in Edgefield, where an estimate gives
the Jones forces 85 out of 00 delegates
elected.
None of tho clubs reporting yesterday
instructed for any presidential
candidates, but tho Edgefield delegates
are believed to bo favorable to
tho New Jersey governor.
An interesting sidelight was the
action of tho McColl club, which
adopted a resolution urging that restrictions
bo placed around voting In
the primaries.
