who. without o moments hesitation,
ran across the street. He took shelter
behind 4 wagon to save himself from
harm at the hands Of Ingham, whosfol-
lowed him up and fired two shots, both
of which fortunately missed Dudley.
Dudley kept running down Mint
gomery street for several blocks, not
even stopping to pick up his hat, which
had fallen off. He did not turn upon
Ingham, although he, too, was armed.
AZ the time the two reckless shots were
fired, several persons were passing to
and fro on the street, and several mar
rowly escaped being shot. As Ingham
was about to put his pistol In his peck
ct again, Detective Towle came along
and took him in custody. His bail has
been fixed at $1,000.
When Ingham drew his pistol and
fired in the middle of q street, and
close to the junction Of another, Mont
gomery street, where the sidewalks are
almost continually lined with pedes-
trians, he did sd, regardless Of the fact,
that an innocent person might become
the victim of his reckless and criminal
conduct. No man, whatever the ex-
element he might labor under, or how
ever desperate the provocation, should
expose the lives Of innocent, unoffend-
ing persons to the danger of being shot
and perhaps instantly killed. This
practice Of dueling In the public streets
and bar rooms should be stamped out
by the most rigid enforcement Of the
law. The perpetration Of the like
careless and desperate acts, regardless
Of consequence, should, in justice to
the community, merit for the offender
appropriate stay at some government
boarding houses. F. Alta, June I'd.

THE INGHAM DUDLEY I'M
BROGLIOs,

In Yesterdays Alta an account was
published of the difficulty between Ed.
fngham and Colonel Dudley and sons,
which resulted In the former receiving
a flesh wound from q pistol fired by
one of the latter. The parties we're
arrested, and soon afterward released
from custody.
1t was thought that nothing further
would be heard of the matter until the
case came for examination before the
proper tribunal: It seems, however,
that at least one Of the parties had de-
termined, In q spirit Of revenge, to
take the law In his own hands at the
first opportunity that presented itself.
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Lewis Grant
met Edward Dudley on the street, and
had q conversation with him, during
which the affray Of the evening prevf-
Gus was alluded to. Mr.. Dudley ex-
pressed his regrets at what had oc-
Cured, but said he felt 1t his duty to
take up the cause for his father, who
had been assaulted. At the same time,
he remarked that he had no further Ill
feeling towards Ingham. Both gentle
men separated, and soon afterwards
Mr.. Grant met Ingham, with whom he
was acquainted, on Montgomery street.
near Bush. They engaged in CONVEX
sation, during which Ingham also ex-
pressed his regrets at what had trans
hired. and from his statements Mr..
Grant was led to believe that Ingham
was willing to have the affair amfcably
adjusted. Being friendly with both
parties, Mr.. Grant took upon himself
the office of bringing about a satisfac-
tory settlement between the parties.
Mr.. Inpham remained at the corner Of
Montgomery and Bush streets, while
Grant walked down Montgomery street
near washington, where he met Col.
Dndley. He related to him what had
taken place q few minutes previous,
and requested him to accompany him
to Mr.. 1nghsm. Col. Dudley declined
to 90, giving his reasons therefor, and
Therefore referred Grant to his son Ed
ward Dudley, who was at work In the
Office, and might probably 60 with
him. Mr.. Grant went to the office In
which Edward Dudley was at work
and there told him the same story.
The Young man accompanied Grant to
Bush and Montgomery streets, where
they met Ingham and q brother to
General La Grange. lngham and
Dudley were formally introduced to
each other, and upon the Invitation Of
the former the party repaired TO the
Cosmopolitan bar-room where they
tocL drnk. and then left the saloon
and Dudley walking up
BtlsS street, chatting together appa-
rantiy in tie most friendly manner.
Messss. Grant and La Grange walked
behind them about Ave feet. When
near the.corner Of Montgomery street,
Inghsm was noticed drawing nom bis
pocket q heavy navy stx-shooter, The
alarm vas a oucs given to Dudley, |
