MEMraIs, TENN, JanuaryA
A. II. Sloan, proprietor OF shoe and
hat store in this city, was shot and Ia
tally wounded late yesterday afternoon In

guard of the County work-house.

saw Mrs. Sloan dressed In white and
drinking glass of gin with man.
Sloan became angry at the relation OF the
dream and told Mcbride TO go away,
cursing and callinghlm number OF dirty
names. Mcbride went away, and IL Is
said filed up with liquor. Meeting
Sloan late last evening on the corner

to him to stop, demanding rctrac-

had been couched at the morning meet
ing. Mcbride, who was standing within
arms reach of Sloan, drew pistol from
his pocket, did not raise it to present,
but fired on a line horizontal with the
elbow. The shot took effect in Sloan's
bowels Just below the navel, ranging
downward and lodging somewhere in the
lower part of the body.
Sloan walked away few steps aud was
led into a barber-shop near by, where he

The Bristol Tunnel on the Baltimore K

city has gone to the scene OF the conna-
grafton. All trains are delayed.
SHAWNEE. o., January 3.
The tunnel is on the branch OF the
Baltimore & Ohio that runs about ilftee II
miles due southward from Junction City
to tap the coal region at Shawnee. The
tunnel, which is several hundred leet
long, lcads-the road through the heart OF
one of the rugged hills with which this coal
and mineral region of Ohio abounds.
There is vein of coal in the tunnel it.
self and that feeds the fury of the flames.
The tunnel watchman gives the following
account of the discovery OF the fire;
81 heard noise in the tunnel. As APP
proached 10 learn the cause of 1t, saw a
numt~r of men. When demanded what
they were doing, | heard one of them
say: Let him have it, The voices
came from the dark cavern, and the COM
mand was followed by a shot at my
lantern. After heard the bullets whz-
zng past me, | thought it time to get out
of danger. They kept up their iusiladc
until had reached the mouth OF the tun-
mel. then watched their movements,
aud after short time | heard deafcn-
Ing explosion. | then gave the alarm"
From other sources it was learned that
the burning of the tunnel was the work
of about so Straitsvile strikers. About
500 feet of the tunnel has caved in, and
the fire is raging with increased fury
The tircmcn can not reach the flames, and
IL now appears that the fire can not be eS-
tinguished till the entire tunnel shall have
been ruined This will cut off Shawnee
