The duel which had been arranged between Paul Sandor, the Jewish Deputy to the Hunngarian Parlhament and the anti-Semitic Deputy Besnard has been postponed to give Beenard a chance to get in trim once more.
Besnard needs recuperation because of another duel which he fought yesterday with Rassy, a deputy who has been very friendly to the Jewish interests. Besnard’s markmanship was on a par with his reasoning on Jewish questions. He was severely wounded.
