COWIE FIGHTS.
He Attacks Insurance Agent Youngermann
at the Grant House.


at the Grant House.
just after noon today a personal
encounter took place between Detec-
tive F. G.. Cowie, who has been the in
defatigable investigator of this Chicago
Bedding Company fire, and Life Insur-
ance Agent Youngermann in the Grant
house office. It seems to have been the
result of sort of feud which had
sprung up between the two men by
reason of various discussions they have
been in. Both of them have been
angry in some of these and they led to
the use Of more or less harsh language.
Cowie heard of some of the talk that it
was alleged Youngerman had spread
behind his back. One of the alleged
remarks being that he (CoWie) was an
ex-convict and all round scoundrel.
This nettled Cowie when he heard of
it, and he went to the Grant house Of
flee and seeing Mr.. Youngermann there
demanded of him if he had used the
language. Mr.. Youngermann failed to
satisfy Mr.. Cowie and the latter caught
his man about the throat and threw
him over onto the table. They fell from
here to the floor and amid the rapidly
flying legs and arms it was impossible
to see what was taking place. The
encounter ended in a very few mo-
ments and Mr.. Youngermann was taken
to his room by the porter. CoWie took
a horse and buggy and drove south
DR.. Farr was called in aud as soon
as he saw the condition of Mr.. Young
ermann he went at once to Justice
Mathews court and made a complaint
on behalf of Mr.. Youngermann. This
he afterward countermanded.
Mr. Youngermann was man of very
nervous temperament and weak. He
was seized with fits of hysteria and was
in very bad nervous state all the
afternoon. The rumor started at one
time that he had died, but it had about
as much foundation as the ordinary
rumor has.
The reporter for this paper called to
see Mr.. Youngerman. He was in such
"a condition as to be totally unable to
tell anything about the affair.
Mr. CoWie returned at about 3 o'clock
and stopped at the Grant house. He
was told a warrant was out for his ar
rest. After inquiring in what court he
fastened up to see if there was any truth
in it. He found there was not. Then
to the reporter of this paper he told his
side of the story. He said the
Rev. Morrill, Twins had confirmed the
truth of Mr.. Youngermann's assertion
to them that he (Cowie) had been an
ex-con7ict. Then" said Mr.. CoWie,
asked him if it was true that he had
said so. He refused to reply. | gave
him another opportunity and he said
he wouldn't talk to me. Then l lost
my temper and caught him about the
throat and threw him down. | am
very sorry this thing happened, but he
would not act the part of man and l
felt called upon to square myself with
him -
