WASHINGTON LETTER: rditorial Cotwspondettm WASHINGTON'S LATEST SMATION-FATAL CONFLICT BETWEEN NEWSPAPER .31M". A. M. Soteldo, a prominent. news paper correspondent, and. formerik news editor of the National Republi can of this city, -became involved,- a short time since in a fight with a than by the name of Keegan in a house ; of jU fame in Washington, and both were arrested and arraigned before the police . court of the city and fined for breach of the peace. Clarince Barton present news editor of the Republican wrote up an account of the affray, which ap peared in the columns of that paper,, in which Soteldo was .treated in, no very complimentaryi terms. • Soteldo, who was n high •spirited, proud. 'and . ambitious man, and the head of a haVing a highly respectable wife. ud several chilnren, felt deeply ,aggrieved and offended at being thus held up to public contempt and scandal. He made several efforts to induce the piper to. retract .its charges against him, pleading as a reason the disgrace and unhappiness inflicted upon his , wife and family'. Failing to induce the editor of the Republican to make a re traction, he attempted to bribe an employee of the office to give him the original manuscript, of the article, with the purpose of establishing beyond question, its authorship, , centeniplating no doubt, the chastisement.of the - man who wrote it. The proffered bribe was refused, and -the 'attempt exposed through the columns' of the paper, This incensed him the more.' After brooding over his imaginary injury for twodays, and in the mean time drink in< , tO excess, he- devised a .plan of avenging the wrong upon Clarence Barton the' ews editor of the Republi can. a. Having enlisted - the sympathy of his younger brother, A. C. Soteldo, theV prepared themselves each with a five shooter revolver, A. M. Soteldo carrying a huge bowie - knife in addition, and i visited the office 'of the Republican at about 9 o'clOck on Thursday eye lastJ" Finding Barton on duty- at his desk, A. M. SoteldO approached, him and presented a paper demanding an apology fOr the - insult , oflered him in the/article complained of, Barton , re fused to receive the article, 'telling hint he must see Mr.'Gorham'tle managing editor. The younger Soteldo in, the meantime stood upo&the other sido. -of the table in readiness to participate in the anticipated affray. .• Upon Barton's refpsal the elder SOteldo struckAhn violently while sitting upon his chair. Barton seized • a revolver which was lying in the drawer of his table, - and as he says attempted to fire upon his assailant who was grappled with .him bUt the weapon missed fire. The two rolled from the chair to the floor, and while they _were thus'engaged in a death struggle both attempting to use .their weaPons,•the younger Soteldo began T ing upon Barton, firing several shots el rapid succession. Two shots took ffect !mon Barton,. but fortunately neither was fatal and did not -disable him. In firing upon Barton,... one -of 'the shots took effect upon his brother, striking him in the back of the neck bAind and. below the right ear, which • produced instant paralysis and has since proved fatal.. Barton finding his, assailant disabled turned his attention to the brother who had discharged the five chambetS of his weapon, and then fought him by striking with the:batt of his pistol. He, Barton,- attempted to use his weapon, but says he could not •iit the excitement, get it off. One chamber , howeVer, was found, to . be empty after tthe melee; and it is thought he must have fired one shot. The - struggle between the younger Soteldo. and Barton, which began on the second floor of the building, was continued to the street, both rolling down, the stairs togather. ~By this time the po lice came upon the scene and Soteldo the yetinger was arrested' and taken to the Central police station. Barton Was : taken in a carriage at once to his. demo accompanied by a physician, who dressed his wound and extracted a ball which had lodged in his neck; but fortunately had not penetrated any vital part. His; wounds proved not serious and he will soon l be out. gin. _Dirs. Bliss and Sowers were iininWiato- V called to attend A. Vii. Soteldo, witent they f(lund lying insensible from the effect of his• wound in the Republican - office.. After an examina tion they pronounced his wound fatal,- mid he was removed in . an ambulance to PrOvidence Hospital, and his 'heart- Stricken Wife was summonnt: ) his bed upper and lower .limbs were completely paralyzed `. and conscious ness was suspended. - Ile regained consciousness fora few hours only, during which time his . ante-mortem statement was taken, but which has not yet been given to the public. He lingered until ten o'clock on Saturday evening and expired. Thus. - ends a ' amentable tragedy growing out of the fool-hardy indulgence of a brutal pas sion inflamed by over indulgence in strong drink, resulting from evil asso ciation and gross, immoral conduct. One life. is sacrificed, an other will . be consigned to many years of imprison ment, while the third participant will wear the'scars of the conflict to the end' of his days. Barton showed great, pluck, and--.is complimented for his heroic valor. - His escape from instant death seems to be, purely acceidental. THE ASTIIETIC WTLDE IIEPULSED) ,i .

Oscar left in disgust, declaring that., the reperesentatives cif the Americari.people had no apppeeia tion of the subliine grandeur of nature and the exquisite beauties of art. - FOLGA3IT GETS A BLACK E•YE The House on Monday 'last; under a suspension of-the rules, passed: the anti-Polygamy bill introduced by Mr. Burrows of Michigan. -It dofities the qualification of Territorial DelegateS in the House , of Representatives, mid provides that no perk' m,who is guitly of bigamy or Polygarly, shall be eligible to a seat in Congrtislas a Delegate from any Territory.
