IOWA I1ESIOCBATS FIGHTING THE APPOINTMENT
OK 0 L. WILLIAMS.
WASHINGTON , D. 0. , May 13.-tSpeclal to
the Chicago Trlbuno.-"Who ] li Lucy Clews ! "
That is a question which the Iowa democrats
in Washington are asking eagerly to-day. The
appointment ot Charles L. Williams as United
States marshal for the southern district of
Iowa has created the greatest consternation In
the camp of the Iowa consrresimen who had
assembled hero to parcel out .the
spoila. The entire Iowa delegation ,
consUUng of Congressmen Murphy , Weaver ,
Hall and Podrick , had united In rec
ommending Edward Campbell , Jr , . of Fairfield -
field , the old wheel-hone of the democracy ,
f r thla place. However , Cbarloa L. Will-
lams , presumably from Iowa , _ was selected
late yesterday evening and Williams hastened
this morning to the department of jutllca and
secured his commission , He did not call
upon any of the congressmen. Ho ia not
known to any of them , The indorsera of
Williams are chie&y Wall Btieet and other
eastern railway magnates.
The papers filed in support of William *
show that his recommendations were ai fol
low" and in the order designated : William
O. Whitney , secretary of the navy ; Lucy W.
M. Clowa , No. 21 Weat Fortieth street , New
York City ; Jamoa Hagerman , general attor

railroad ; George W , MoCrary , of Kan a
City , Mo. , also attorney of the Atchiaon ,
Topeka & Santa Fe railroad ; M. H. Boveo ,
of New York city ; occupation not given , re
ported also to be a railroad attorney ; Honrj
Clowa , a banker of Now York City , a large
dealer in the bonds of the govern
ment aailroads which run througl :
the southern district of Iowa , anc
brother-in-law of Williams ; William C. En

nf Williams ; Jamei O. Broadhoad , of St
Louis , Mo. ; United Stalea Judga Love , o
Xeokuk. This is the list , with the excoptlot
of perhaps a dozen lawyers and bankers o
Keokuk. The only candidate for thia oositloi
known to the congressmen was W. 0. Thomp
son , of Ottumwa , but by an understanding h
was unanimously recommended for the col
lectorship of Internal revenue in the second
end Iowa district. The appointment of Mr
Williams is regarded as a slap in the face c
the delegation. The Iowa congressmen ar
about the hotel lobbies naklnr : "Who i
Charles I. Williams ? " "Who is Lucy Clews ?
and "Is Iowa to bo the stepdaughter of Wai
street "
The Iowa congressmen , unable to restral
their rage at the appointment of Williams a
marshal of the Southrn district of Iowa , tc
night filed a protest insisting that the com
mission shall be revoked and calling upon th
president to appoint Campbell. The protee
waa placed In the hands of the president lat
to-night. There is no expectation that it wi
have any effect. *

Corn opened at 4Sc for tha July option ,
which was the closing pnco last night , A
fairly active trade , with no new features
ruled throughout. Tha same influences were
at work ns those cf yesterday , the principal
feature being mild worther. A largo amount
of changing of June corn into July ; was done
and the difference In tha options widened out
to 9c. The desire to change caused the weak
feeling which carried July down to 48Sc , but
at the decline local shorts covered and thn
price wont np to the opening figure. The
July option closed at 47jc. )

presents no notlce.xblo features. The state

. WASHINQTON , May 14. A delegation , in
which waa Congrouman Cox , of Now York ,
called on President Cleveland today. After
the ceicmony of introduclion , Judge McCar
thy addressed the president" behalf of the
delegation , stating the purpose of their visit
to Washington , They had scon Mr. Cox
and urged him In behalf of all classes of people
in his district to decline the appointment as
minister to Turkey nnd represent them in
congress. They had not prevailed , nnd now
came to ask the president to advise Mr. Cox
to decline.
With thia Judge McCarthy banded tha
president an engrossed copy of resolutions.
The president said the piopositlon seemed a
singular ono to make to him.
' It wont do. " the president continued. "I
mean to have the lion's share of good things
for the administration and the more resolu
tions you pass calling Mr. Cox n gocd man
the more I shall hold onto him. "
Something was said by n delegate about the
difficulty of filling Mr. Cox's place.
"You havo-ald the president , "a district
full of goodlmon. Send us along a good man.
Iwont _ Interfere in your district , but I want
bun , and you wont get mo to back out. Your
mission is unsuccessful ! . "
Mr. Cox felt that ho had word to say : Ho
had served sixteen years and had formed a
host of worm attachments.
The president "It is very complimentary
to you , and to me , too. I teel that I have
boon building , perhaps , better than I know. "
A delegate ! 'It would bo very gratifying
to his constituents to have Mr. Cox remain.
It would bo very hard to fill hia place. "
Mr. Cox aald ho used to bo In a great hurry
to get up to the house promptly but some ono
liau told him the government could run with
out him and ho had found it so. The presi
dent had made this appointment with so
much kindness that ho felt himself bound to
go where ho was sent. They could always
find a good democrat in tha district and could
always elect him. After some further talk
ing nd a round of hand-shaking the delega
tion withdrew.

A NIW YOBK AND A CHICAGO BPOBT SETTLE A.
FKUD WITH BLADES AND BULLETS.
ffiNEw YOBK , May 14. To-night an alterca
tion occurred between Lary O'Brien , a well-
known broker and politician , and George
Truman , a sporting character belonging to
Chicage. The former was probably fatally
stabbed and the latter was shot twice. The
affray was the outcome of a quarrel. To
night O'Brien met Truman on the corner of
Broadway and Twenty-seventh streets and
accused him of attempted blackmail.
The remark enraged Truman , who
crave utterance to some strong language.
His remark so exasperated O'Brien that bo
lifted bis cone and struck the other man a
heavy blow on tha head. Without warning
Trueman drew a murderous looking bowie
knife and plunged it Into his opponent's abdo
men intUcttng a gash eight inches long , A
policeman immediately arreatod Truoman
and while in the custody of the officer a pistol
shot waa heard and a ballet from O'Brien's
revolver , lodged tn the prisoner's back.
He broke away from the officer and a second
bullet from the sama Bouroo lodged in Truo-
man'aleft ahodlder. Both men wore token
to the Twenty-ninth street police station and
thence removed to the Now York hospital.
Excitement in the locality was interne.
Tha causa of the quarrel ia said to be an at
tempt on the part of Trueman to blackmail a
Wall street friend of O'Brien. The friend is
supposed to bo Mr. Kelly , of the firm of
Kelly & Bliss , book-makers.
The charge of felonious assault was made
against both men at the station house. The
knlfo used boa a blade a foot long and an
inch and a quarter wide. O'Brien declined
to taka an antithetic while his wound waa
being seived np , and both men Indulged in
recriminations while their wounds were being
dressed In the name ward in the hospital. At
a late hour both men were resting quietly ,
but the result of their Injuries is likely to bo
fatal in each case.
