BRADFORD, Penn, Aug S.--A special to The
Era from Elottvie, NJ Y, says that Edward Northrup
prominent attorney shot and killed Joseph O'Donneli
clerk for lumber firm in that place to-day Northrup
had been administrator for the estate OF O'Donneus
father In closing up the affairs Of the estate young
ODonnen claimed that Northrup withheld $500 due n No.
This the attorney denied. Several tlrleS
In tho past year ODonnel has made personal
assaults upon Norhrup account Of this misunder-
standing, On occasion Norhrup caused the arrest
and Imprisonment of O'Donnel, which intensified the
latter's hatred for Northrup.
At IL o'clock to-day Northrup in the Crawford
House, conversng with friend when O'Donnel en-
tered, approached and said: " You -, can whip you
and struck Northrup The latter Immediately seized
ODOnnel, and In the struggle between them both
fell to the floor. Northrup's friend out to call
for assistance and in his absence heard three shots
fired. One ball entered ODonnel's right lung and an
other passed completely through his abdomen from side
to side. O'Donnc died within n few hours. NorthrlI
Immediately surrendered himself to the authorities
The affair has created great excitement in the village
and vicinity owing the high standing of both parties
1t is thought that O'DonDen was partially under the
influence Of liquor at the time.
