SHOOTING AFFRAY AT PLATTE
vILLE.-While at Platteville last
Friday, we saw Charlie Mcconnell,
Jr., of this city, who shot Frank
Russell, of Platteville, in that place
on the 7th. Charlie states the ease
as follows Being in a saloon with
his employer, James Henry, the man
Russell provoked quarrel, and,
seiZing a chair, struck Charlie a
severe blow on the head. Henry
then interfered, stepping between
Russell and Mcconnell. Russell con-
tinuing to threaten and menace, Nc
Connel snatched a pistol from
Henry's hand and fred. Russell con-
tinuing to menace and strike at
him with the chair, Charlie fired
other shots, to the total number OF
five, we understand, before knowing
that Russell was hurt, though the
first shot had taken effect in his
breast. Mcconnell promptly re-
ported to the authorities what had
occurred, and was placed under az
rest, as was also Henry. The first
shot struck in the right breast and
passed through his body, coming
out Just below the shoulder blade.
yet he is likely to recover. McCon-
mel and Henry are both at large
under bonds, awaiting Russell's re-
covery sufficient to have an investi-
cation. The general sentiment in
Platteville seems to be favorable to
Mcconnell, and Russell is uniyer-
sally reported desperate, vicious
character some even go 50 lar as
to say that his recovery will be a
misfortune to the community. Me-
Connel appears to be under no ap-
prehension of serious punishment
for his crime.
