A lively Fight

About II o'clock to-day Captain
Sneed, Of the law firm of Myers &
Sueed, visited the fruit store of Mr..
Warren, which store is situated in the
basement. on the corner of Main and
Madison. A difficulty sprang up between
them, and resulted in a rough and

was in his Office Immediately over Mr.
Warren's store, blew his police whistle,
and at once a large crowd congregated.
The %combattants were separated as soon
as possible. Both parties we're bruised
and bloody, but no material injuries were
inflicted upon either.
