SHOOTING ARRAY.
Frank Kroell Wounded Fred Groves at
Montevallo.

Montevallo, February 6.-(Special.) -Quite
an exciting shooting ARRAY occurred on
Main street this morning between Frank
Kroell and Fred Groves.
1t seems that Kroell and Lee Rice had a
difficulty yesterday and Groves, who is a
brother-in-law of Rice, met Kroell at the
postofice and a quarrel arose between
them. Kroell ran to his store and came
back with his pistol and opened fire on
Groves, who had in the meantime been car
ried to McCord's store to keep down the
trouble.
E Four shots were fired by Kroell at
Groves who was unarmed, but only one
took effect, hitting him in the right arm.
Groves is a man of unquestioned courage
and more trouble is feared.

this city, fought a ten round draw here to-
night for a purse of $500 before the National
Athletic club. The aspiring light weight

the large crowd present. The local man
forced ell the fighting, and Daily circled the
ring numerous times in each round. In the
mix ups DAILY showed his superiority, but
at long range he looked a novice.

Bibb Defends Himself

Mr.. Bibb rose and was heard on ques-
ton of personal privilege. He asked that
the clerk read certain charges printed in
the Montgomery Advertiser this morning
and attributed to Rev. George B. Eager,
pastor of the First Baptist church. In re-
ply to said charges Mr.. Bibb asked that
the following article be spread on the min
utes of the house in justice to himself and
the other members of the Montgomery
county delegation in the general assembly,
which request was granted by unanimous
consent. The reply is as follows:
"There are certain charges of undue in
fluence by the whisky men of this city upon
the four representatives. from Montgomery
county in this house, contained in an arti-
Gle just read by the clerk, from the Mont
gomery Advertiser of this date, which are
attributed to the Rev. Dr. Eager of this
city. These charges l deny absolutely in
behalf of myself and my colleagues
mot one of them in my belief, nor was
I, knowingly the candidate of the alleged
whisky club" of which I never heard be-
fore, nor of the whisky men any more
than were the candidates of the railroad
men, electric light men, doctors. mer-
chants, preachers or farmers, or any other
class of citizens, who favored the issues in
volved at the time of our election. The
dispensary question was never mooted, nor
was it an issue in the campaign, nor was
the temperance question involved. The
reverend gentleman's zeal and enthusiasm
in the compromise experiment before the
house in the shape of a dispensary bill,
has caused him to invade the politico-moral
field which is a new arena for one of his
respective cloth, and to draw conclusions
which no man familiar 9th the political
conditions of this county could justly
draw, and which I declare to be unfair,
inaccurate and untrue
