SENSATIONAL Eight
Between a Couple OF East st. Louis
OflicIals

ST.. LOUIS, Mo, June 10 Excite
ment among the nun cipal auth Jriti7s
OF East St Louis sgain runs high,
caused by a much less Sensational
affair, however, than the trial of the
G ty Clerk for cafe blowing, or the re-
cent conspiracy to pilsge the city.
The cause this time resulted from a
fstic encount r between City Clerk
Comfy and City Attorney 0'Melviney.
The relations between the two men
have been strained for some time,
O'Melyinsy having charged the City
Clerk with malauminis ra ion of his
office. To-day the formers office was
invaded by the City Clerk, who de-
manded of the attorney re'raction Of
his staten nt. 0'Melvioey replied
that this wel free country and that
he had right to his opinion. "Well,
you can't EXPIRE IS your opinion of me
in the way you have been doing"

head, a black eve and a lup,ured
friendship are the re ults Of the en-
counter.
