A WILMINGTON MAN SHOOTS
AND PROBABLY FATALLY INJURIES
ANOTHER MAN IN NEW YORK.

AANcA 1uahAohhh ONoN 0hho OF Shfue
Frederick Lang Shot. He Claims In
sslf-dsfense, william schnItz Ian z
Held without Bail.
A mysterious shooting affray occurred
yesterday afternoon at No. Asa East
Eighty first street, says to days N. Y.
Herald, as result of which young VIM.
Schnitz lay dying at an early hour this
morning in the Presbyterian Hospital.
The man who fred the probably fatal
shot is Frederick Lang, now a prisoner
Ia the East Eighty eighth street station.
Both men lived with Hungarian families
on the top floor Of the Eighty first street
house
Just what occurred between the young
men prior to the shooting remains in
doubt owing to the panic stricken reti-
cence Of their Hungarian friends, but
enough is known to indicate that the
tragedy was preceded by lively fight
IL is believed that they quarrelled
over a game of cards an hour before the
shooting, and separated after a shaIp u
terchange of blows.
Lang, according to his statement to
the police. was seated in his room after
the row, when the door was thrown open
to admit Schnitz
The latter rushed In, armed with a
psrlor rifle, which he leveled at Lang's
head.
Il felt that he intended to shoot" ex
planned Lang $50 l snstched up my
revolver from the table and fred to scare
him"
Lsng's bullet struck Schultz close ur
under the eye, and he fell TO the floor
heavily.
Horror stricken at the sight of the
desperately wounded man, the occupants
of the house fed pell NELL into the
street.
Policeman Mccarthy, OF the East
Elghty-eight street station, caught
sight Of the wildly gesticulsting crowd
and proceeded to investigate. He found
Schnitz unconscious on the floor. and
Lang beside him, half crazsd, apparently
with remorse.
The wounded man was taken to the
Presbyterian Hospital. An operation
was performed on him last night, but
the doctors were unable to find tn,
bullet. They believe it has lodged il
the base Of his brain. His condition
became so critical that Coroner Fltz
| patrick was sun moned TO take his anet
mortem statement, but found him un-
conscious.
Lang was at once srrRigned befor,

ments. They professed to be unable t
speak English. and appeared to be Anxiou
to suppress the details of whatever ma,

men before the shooting. Through al

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Ofiicial notih-
cation Of battle between the japanese
and Chinese land forces in Korea was ro-
ceyed &C the Japanese legation here from
the foreign office at Tokyo Tho telegram
containing the nows stated that on. tho
goth Of July portion of the Japanese
troops at Seoul marched against a much
superior forco Of Chinese intronched at
Shan Yong. A battle ensued, and after
hard fighting the Chinese were put entire
ly 20 rout and a large number Of prison
ers and munitions of war were captured
by tho Japanese.
On tho morning Of the 3oth the Japa-
neso proceeded to march against Gasan.
Shan Yeng Is situated between Seoul and
Gasan of Asan, where tho fight between
the Japanese and Chinese, resulting in
the loss Of ., 600 Japanese, Is reported to
have occurred.
It is tho opinion Of the legation officials
hero that the reports from Chinese sources
containing rumors of the defeat Of tho
Japanese at Gasan are probably gross ex-
aggcrations, though no dispatches refer
ring to a fight at tho latter place havo yet
been received.
A long telegram was received at the le-
cation confirming the official report Of the
sinking Of the British transport Kow
Shing. IL reiterates the statements made
by the japanese government that the first
attack was made by the Chinese cruiser
Chin Yuen by firing a torpedo on the Jap.
anese cruiser Naniwa.
Tho delay in the receipt Of dispatches
at the Japanese legation from the home
government is found TO have been due to
the fact that thoy pass through the hands
Of the minister at st. Petersburg, who,
owing to the small clerical force at his
command, has been unable TO have them
deciphered promptly.
