DKSI1A ON THE WAU PAUL Breckinridge's Bon Insults One Man and Cuts Another, Lr.xiNtiTOX, bept 22.

Desha Breckinridge, sou of the congressman who was defeated for renominatiou in the Democratic primaries lnt Saturday by W. C. Owens, went on the war yesterday, called Judge George B. Ktnkead, oue of his father's bitterest opponents, a liar aud other harsh names and tried to stab Janies Duane Livmgstoue, inflicting a severe cut ou Livingstones hand. About 5 oclock yesterday afternoon Desha Breckinridge and Matthew Lane, a strong friend of the BreckinriUges, met Judge Kin-keau in front of the Breckinridge headquarters on Main street Desha stopped Kin kead aud called him a liar and otherwise insulted him.

Tbe judge rep'ied that he was unarmed end did not want to have a difficulty ou tbe public streets. Desha tunes told tlie judge to arm himseit and be prepared to meet him 1 Desha at auy time or place. Then Lane declared that Kiukead had lied when he said that deceut people would not entertaiu Breckinridge lor his (Lauew) sister had done so iu Woodford county. He closed by calling Kiukead a vile name. When the judge said that he was not armed aud wanted uo trouble, Laoe threw his coat opeu and declaring that he also was not armed, repented the epithet.

Thejuige then left for his home. Desha Breckinridge then entered the Phoenix hotel ana was buying a package of cigarettes, when was standing at the counter, spoke to him and, extendiug his band, said: It is all over now and we outfit to be friends. Bhuke Hreckiuridge, with au angry look oo his face, rep'ied: No, you one-horse scouudrcl, 1 will not take your hand. You profess to be a mans friend aud then stab him the back. Livingstone denied tills and Desha called him a liar.

Livingstone auswered with a blow which knocked Deshas eye glasses ofl and followed it with a blow on the neck. Desha drew a large dirk knife from his hip pocket aud struck at bis opponent who seired the blade just in time. Ihe keen edge cut the third huger to the bone aud drew blood on the others. Young Breckinridge then began kicking Livingstone, who was trying to staunch the flow ot blood, but the clerk of the hotel aud several bystanders se.ted him. Lane rushed up with a kuiie and cried that he would help Desha.

This attracted a number of Owens men and the situation looked very serious for a time. Finally, however, Desha and Lane were imluced to leave the hotel quietly while the Owens men talked bitterly of the trouble. Livingstone, who was from New York, is financial agent of J. Kennedy Todd, owner of the Kentucky Union railroad, and ns a strong Owens man during the campaign, lie claimed he was forced to strike Desha Decause of his abuse. Judge Kiukead is a grandson of Governor Isaac Shelby of Kentucky and a first cousin of Breckinridges law partuer, John T.

Nhelby. lie lias alwuys beeu considered a man of tbe highest courage. March 12 last Desha Breckinridge was one of tbe participants in the afiray in the lobby of the court iu Washington where the Made line Bollard breach of promise suit was on trial, in this allair John T. bhelby sapped W. G.

Johnson of Miss Bollards counsel and Desha struck Calderon Carlisle, another of Miss Bollards counsel, who was trying to calm the two. At tbe olose of the trial Judge Jere ilson, in his concluding speech for Mist Bollard, made reference to a letter alleged to have been written by hia client to Colonel BrCckin ridge, and characterised it aa a forgery.
