Several bills , placing ollieera who had retired to eivil Hfo on the retired list of the army , came up under regu lar cull of the calendar. Messrs.

Ho still hold io his belief that 307 would bo the number. Ho believed the house too largo now rather than too small. Since the committees of the house had indicated , however , that it would not accept 307 , he would accept the number proposed by Mr. Colerick , " 310. Ho refused to permit interrup tion" , as the question of figures is a very delicate und particular one , and said : " .Should I permit all these mis cellaneous attacks , there would bo a whole bunch of figures ruthlessly raped right hero.

NEWSPAPER SHOOTERS The "National Republican" dot ting a National Reputation , The Managing Editor Having Fatally Shot a Nowapapor Correspondent. How the Trouble Originated and How Ic Cul minated. * RXlioellnnootu New * Of Crime * Mid CrisnlnnU. MURDEROUS JOURNALISTS. National Axnoclattxl Pn . KAT.VI.LV SHOT. WASHINGTON , February ! > . A shoot ing affray took place in the office of the National Republican just butoro 10 p. in. , during which A. M. SoltoldoJr. , clerk of the senate u mumltoo on rail roads , was faUllyshot in thoback of thu neck , and Chirenco B.xrton , managing editor of the Republican , WHS also shot in the nick and again in the side. The trouble between the parties was of long standing. Solteldo was ut one .imo managing editor ot thu Republi can and afterwards correspondent of ho San Francisco Chronicle and of ho Baltimore Tim , s. Fur the iast .wo sessions f congress ho has > oen clerk of the senate committee on railroads. Ho has gained considerable notoriety lately .by n l w- mit with the proprietor of the Lyon ipuse , this city , and also on acooutit of a fracas with Col. Jas. Keogan , of Now York. The latter affair and its equols have boon made the subject of > uraonal comment by the Republican uid Soltoldo has openly attributed the authorship of the articles to Barton ind declared ho Would in turn show lim up to thu public in his true light. L'o this end he procured what pur- ) ortod to bo copies of letters fiom Jarton written some time ago und confessing forger } * to the kinoimt of several hundred dol- ars. The p.ipora Solteldo held n abeyance until to-day , when the current issue of The Republican con tained the following : "Mr. A. M. Soltoldo , Jr. , a native of Venezuela , South America , whilom proprietor of the Lyon house , on V itreet , cloik to the committee on rail roads of the United States senate , tnd newspaper correspondent , offered on Tuesday to Wm. 0. Hmton , a typo on The Republican , five dollars if he would secure for him the origi * iml manuscript of u news article which ippuared in these columns relative to A. M. Soltoldo and Col. J. F. Keegan on the 13th ult. Mr. Uinton , who waa an apprentice on the Republican some years ago when Mr. Soltoldo was managing editor and who has been attached to the paper for the lust ton years , proved to bo incorruptible and rotuaod to violate the customary confidence reposed in employes of luwspapor offices. Just why Mr. Soltoldo , Jr. , desires the original man uscript is not known but ho ought to remember that bribery is not juurtial- sm , and that such u proposition com- ng from the clerk of a senate com- nitteo would naturally tend to destroy confidence in said clerk. The nigh after the publication of the article ro- 'errod to Colonel Kocgan for warded card to this office giving the details of the disgraceful iff.iira which brought himself and Soltoldo into the courts and the nowa- ) apera. Mr. Solteldo got wind of the mended publicatfSn , and through his earnest personal solicitations und those of his friends , based upon the ileu that it would iinti him in the ; oiinnunity , thu card of Col. Keegan was not published. This injustice to " ! < il. Keogau and favor 0 A. M. Sol toldo is repaid by the latter in an at tempt to corrupt one of the employes ot this journal , it ID not forgotten 'n this city that when Soltuldo was natmging editor of the Republi can lie boasted Unit ho hold : ho mirror up to nature in presenting the naked facts of passing jvcntB to the public through its col- JimiH. Whether ho did or not is best known to those who remember his signal failure in his efforts. The so called failure was to bo very naturally expected when Mr. Soltoldo's con nection with the well known black mailing sheet in Now York namely , the Free Lance -was BO well ro moinborod" . Mr. Solteldo to-day characterized the above OH libeloua und said he should brini ; action against the paper. To-night , however , ho and his young er brother , Charles , went to the Re publican office a little before 1C o'clock and found Barton at work ed iting telegraphic news. No onu else was present. Others in the building heard several shotH fired , Barton and the younger .Soltoldo had an after acufllo down Blairs and the elder Solteldo was found un conscious on the floor of the sanctum. The latter remained unconscious for nearly an hour. Doctors Bliss and Adams attended. Ho was found to have been shot in the baok of the neck and the ball Roomed to have poasod downward through thu spine. His hands and feut were par.ilyy.ed , but when consciousness i turned ho was able to talk incoher ently. JIo said ho did not know who shot him ; that ho was very sorry that lie was going to die , and ho wanted ; o bo taken to the I'rovidcnco hospital. .At 11 n. m ho was removed there and his wife informed of the fact. Barton was found on the counting room floor , lie was ublo to walk to i carriage and wan taken home. His story is that the Soltcldos came in 01 tliu protonnoof the publication of some impiTs the older hold in hin ham's He refused to look at them , saying lie waa not the editor. Thereupon the elder Solteldo seized him by the throat thu younger fired at him und then ho took'out his pistol from a drawer ir self defeiiHo and fired a shot. He says , however , that ho could not have shot the older Soltoldo in the lio.nl , 'or hu Aimed nt his body. Frank Conger , book-keeper of the [ lopublicftn , ixnd the copy boy , both of whjm entered during the fracas , corroborate Barton' * statement that 10 waa the party attacked and Unit Oharlos Solteldo shot his brother by nistako , Charles Soltoldo , the younger jr.other , wasTarreatoil and locked up. Lie wivs uninjured , lie nays hia Brother shook tome paporn in Burton's 'ace and asked him if lie recognized : hcm ; that Barton refused to look at .hem ; , tha * his brother moved lownrd him , and that Barton , Jiking * revolver from thu desk , irod the shot that brought him .0 the floor. Charles says lie then sprang upon Barton. They acufllod across the mom ami down stairs and pistoLwos discharged several Union during the 8cuio ami that Barton hbt himself.
