ST. LOUIS, Nov. 29.-The parties involved
in the shooting affray briefly referred to
last night we're Frank Igelhart, formerly
cashier of the banking house of Bartholow,
Lewis & Co., very highly connected, and
Mr.. Rush II. Tevis, a well known merchant.
Igelhart and lady closely yelled came
from house on Singleton street, known
as an assignation house early last evening,
when Tevis and companion, who it seems
had been lying in wait, appeared from an
alley near the house. Trevis fired at Igel-
hart, wounding BIN but not dangerously
in the arm. The latter fell and the woman
helped him up,while the assailants ran to a
livery stable block away and procuring
their rig, which had been left there, and
drove rapidly off. Iglehart, supported by
the lady, walked a few blocks, when a
passiag carriage was hailed and they we're
driven to the formers residence. The
lady then drove away in carriage. 1t is
supposed the man with Tevis was a pri-
vate detective, that the lady was Tevis'
wife and that it was his intention to kill
Iglehart. All parties are very recticent,
but the affair has caused much excitement,
as the persons involved are all
well known and highly connected.
Mrs. Tevis was Miss
Reese, and is niece of Gen. Sherman, and
also niece of the late Judge Samuel
Reber. Her father il colonel in the
United States army. Mr.. and Mrs. Tevis
had meeting this morning. They have
separated, he taking the only child, little
girl three years of age, and he will insti-
tute proceedings for divorce Immediately,
which will be allowed to go by default.
The bones of Mr.. Egleharts left arm are
shattered below the elbow, and the ball
ranged upward, but the wound is not Sc
rious. The scandal is the topic of CONVEX
sation in town to-day.
The Post-Dispatch gives the following
story of the affair: Mrs. Tevis is "a lady,
well known in st. Louis society. She is a
niece of Gen. Sherman, commander-in-
chief of the army, and also niece of the
late Judge Samuel F. Reber. Her father,
Col. Reese, is now in the regular army,
but is at present in st. Louis. The lady
IS quite young, with an exceedingly at
tractive and intelligent face of the order
best described as red blonde, and her figure
is instinct with grace. She does not look
to be more than twenty, but is about
twenty-seven, and she has been the charm
ing center of very bright circle of
st. Louis society for several years.
About four years ago she
was married to Mr.. Tevis.
who was lately merchant in the city, but
is now connected with the extensive dry
goods house of Grow. Hardigan & Co., and
a son of John G. Tevis, an old an respected
citizen of st. Louis, and relative of the
California Tevises. Everyone who knew
them supposed their home was very hap
Ply one, but for some time past there has
been a GOODNESS between them, growing
out of an anonymous letter received by the
husband. This was explained.
however, and Mr.. Tevis seemed
to be satisfied. That deception
was used, there can be. no doubt, for only

took place. After the shot was fired Tevis
was taken away by his detective friend,
and the lady supported Iglehart until they
stopped a passing carriage and we're driven
to Iglehart's apartments. From there
Mrs. Tevis went to her father, not daring
to go to her home, and the scene between
them during her recital of the affair is said
to have been painful in the extreme.
It is: understood that Col. Reece and his
daughter left the city tonight, but where
they went doesn't seem to be known. Be-
yUnd this no new developments have been
made in the case. Mr.. Yevis will file
petition for divorce in a day or two,
and then the unfortunate affair will pass
out of public view.
