4 Fatal Drunken Row.
TWO MEN SHOT.

TRoY. y. y, Jan. :.
The Times of this evening contains the
particulars of Il fatal encounter at Berlin,
n y, on the line of the Harlem Extension
railroad, on Tuesday evening between the
hours of seven and eight o'clock. South
Berlin, a hamlet near the dividing Berlin
and Stephentown, was the scene of the
affray. Matthew Casey, Il young rough re-
siding in Slephentown, close to the Berlin
line, and somewhat noted rs IA brawler. is
the person who is now charged with the
highest crime known to the law The vic
tim of his fatal rage was Orlow Rathbone
also resident Of Stephentown, young
man of good parts and respectable origin
and associates.
TIE COMMENCEMENT or THE AFFRAN.
Between the hours already named, Casey
and John T. Rathbone brother of Orlow,
met in Sieinbrunncrs hotel and, after
drinking generously, commenced II discus
sion. An old feud between the two men,
with its attendant rccollectons, was reviv-
ed by Il chance word. Both being under
the influence Of liquor, their conversation
branched into mutual denunciations and
mutual boasts. At one time il seemed pos
sible that they would come to blows, but,
by the efforts of the other persons present,
reconciliation was affected, and they
joined in drinking good wishes to each
other.
