Senator Tillman, the ribald ruffian from South Carolina, made a personal attack on his colleague, Senator McLaurin, in the Senate, last Saturday, striking him in the face. McLauren returned the blow, getting in one on Tillman’s rum-blossom nose - McLauren had declared one of Till man's statements a deliberate lie, which no doubt it was. Tillman and McLauren will both be punished by the Senate. Tillman nought to be expelled, but probably the Senate will not take that action.
