TWO DUELS IN HOME.
ARISTOCRATS QUARREL. SETTLEMENT WITH RAPIERS. Australian Press Association—United Service (Received October 8, 7.53 p.m.) ROME, Oct. 7. Two duels resulted from a conversation in an aristocratic club in Rome. Prince Lancellotti asserted that Prince Potenziani, a former Governor of Rome, had been dismissed for graft. Tlio Marclieso di Sambuy defended Prince Potenziani in such terms that Prince Lancellotti considered himself insulted. The Marchese and the Prince fought a duel with rapiers yesterday and the former was slightly wounded three times. Prince Potenziani learned of the affair and challenged Prince Lancellotti. They fought to-day and Prince Lancellotti in turn received three slight wounds.
