Senators Duel Disrupted In Senate Clash Sparks Fight Report
Two Democratic senators, Glass of Virginia and Wheeler of Montana, argued last Saturday with a challenged duel in the cloakroom. The melee was halted as a breach of senate peace.

Separately, Des Moines Capital merges with Evening Tribune owned by Cowles Ing ham group, consolidating Des Moines newspaper control and reducing competition.
