THE SHOOTING AT MosEnLY.

THE SHOOTING AT MODERLY.
From june A. Wentz, Gen. Agentof
the st. Louis X. G. & Northern Rail-
road, we learn the particulars of the
shooting of Will Orr, which he has
fully investigated, and can DO fully re.
lied upon as true.
It seems that on the morning of tho
day on which Orr was shot he met
with man named Burke, town loaf
er, with whom he had had some words.
Burke commenced abusing him, called
him all kinds Of bad names, said he
could and would whip him, and per.
sisted in his insults and abuse until
Will told him that ''if nothing but a
fight would do him he could have it,
They then went in the rear of some
stores, where they set to and Will Orr
gave him lBurke) 9 genteel thrashing,
ss he deserved.
In the afternoon shout 8 O'Clock
Will was in the Empire saloon when
Burke and chum Of his named 81
Inyard came in, and IDysrd commen-
ced to talk In 8 braggadocio style about
prize-fghting, saying he could whip
any man in town. The proprietor Of
the saloon (Biliy Hulderman, former
" of Ottumwa), told Will he had bet.
ter leave, that Iuyard was dangerous
character, and VIII left the saloon
After Inyard and Burke had gone
away from the saloon, Will returned
and set down on some beer kegs in
front of Huldermsn's. Burke aud In.
yard who had been drinking deeply,
and by this time were pretty drunk,
returned and found Will sitting there
when Inyard drew a pistol and said to
Will, "you son Of BIB, you got the
best OF ne this morning, but we've got
you now" and Immediately fred
missing him and hitting q man
who was passing on the sidewalk
shooting him in the rear part of
the leg, just above the knee. In
yard fired again hitting VIII in the
right side, the ball passing through
his watch-pocket, missing the watch,
and lodging in his right side above
the groin, when Will ran into the
saloon and fell on his face. Orr was
perfectly sober, and the quarrel was
forced upon him, and entirely unpro-
voked on his part.
Inyard and Burke Immediately fed,
and up to 10 o'clock last night, had
not been caught. The feeling against
Burke and Inyard was intense on the
part Of the rsilroad men, and q large
of them were on the hnnt, in
town, for them, with the intention Of
dealing out summary justice to them,
Nhsn caught.

We are informed that Mcssrs.
Durfee l. Pollard came very near
losing their extensive carriage and

o'clock.
The circumstances, Mr.. Durfee in
forms us, are az follows: One Michael
Coyne, from tho shades Of Dear Creek.
came to the city yesterday to do some
business, and among the rest, to get
some work done at d. & P.'s shop, and
drank considerable whiskey as iisuaI,
succeeding in finishing up on this
score with some Kentucky whiskey,
as he said, on Second street, and then
came up to Durfee & PoIlard's shop,
In company with party from the
aforesaid saloon. Soon after his ar
rival. he fell on the floor iu drunken
stupor, the said saloon man vanishing
and leaving him.
Not feeling willing to turn Coyne
out of doors, they covered him up on
the floor, supposing that be would
slcep of his drunk, Late Ia the even.
ing, Durtee went over to the Office
where he lay, thinking he might be
able to arouse him, and that be would
be in a condition to 60 home. He was
still in stupor and Durfee, unwisely,
a. the sequel proved, decided to leave
him. About midnight, Coyne must
have gotten up, and in stumbling
about tipped over the stove. Soon
some young gents, going home, OBJ.
served q light in the Office, and, as
good fortune had it, were attracted to
examine the matter, and found that
the few embers in the stove had bnrnt
a large hole in the floor, that the oifice
was full of smoke and the blaze noun.
ting up to the ceiling, while Coyne
was lying supplied with the smoke
and his clothes on fire.
Here is an instance of the terrible
effects of whiskey drinking. Guess
Durfee & Pollard won't lot any more
drunken countrymen sleep in their
Office, no matter what may become of
them. if turned ont of doors.

PARTY LASH.

1t is said that the party lash is
being used against Hilliard, the
Radical candidate for judge in this
district, with unsparing severity
The Governor and the Republican
State Executive Committee, it is
said, are using every effort to rule
him off the track in favor of Moore,
and threaten that if he persists in
running he will be excommunicated
and the party instructed not to vote
for him.
Was there ever such presump-
ton? Hilliard has a right to feel
indignant that the Governor should
have gone out of his district to ap~
point Moore in the first place, and
now when three-fourths of the dele
gates in convention of his district
ignore Moore and endorse him, for
Caldwell to again interfere to bis
prejudice, is an unjust intermedline
that Hilliard should resent. If be
allows the Governor and the Exec.
utive Committee to force him tc
yield in favor of their pet, he is toe
craven for a judge, OF any other
position requiring self-respect.

THE COMING MAN.

The Roanoke Nes0s thus speaks
of the man who is to represent this
district in the next session of Com
gress. We have heard that John
was very conservative negro, and
hence wondered at his nomination,
but the following shows high quail.
fcations
Mr. Swepson, through his clerk,
paid John A. Hyman, while mem.
ber Of the Legislature of 1863, as
is evidenced by the testimony of said
Swepson before the Shipp Committee,
on October 9th, 1868, $500; Janual y
11th, 1869, $500; January Both, 1869,
$500; April 1st, 1869, $500, amount
ing to the snug little sum of 81, 100,
all in bribes to work in the interest
of said Swepson. John will be the
next member of Congress from this
District and will be suitable com.
panion for the corrupt Republican
members of Congress.
