A HOT TIME
AT Elm Grovc-Rcvolvcrs Used In .

AT Elm Grovc-tcvolvcrs Used In n
Promiscuous Scrap.
There was hot time In Elm Grove
Saturday night. scrapplng reIgned su-
preme, being carried on promjscuously
between whites and blacks. pipe liners
and miners, and Homer Smith, "the
wild man." got his bumps numerically.
Smith was mixed up In It at a prelim
mary stage, and was laid cold with a
brick, his front teeth being smashed
to fragments while his head was other
wise bruised. Revolvers were drawn
and freely used. but the darkness
probably shielded the human targets.
A crowd Of colored men were cornered
In potnto patch, near the Baltimore
& Ohio depot. and managed to escape
without the bullets taking effect.
Marshal Fitzgerald, who attempted
to restore the peace. was tossed over n
stone wall by a couple of the combat
ants. but one man couldn't have done
much with the crowd. A murder
seemed probable while the scrappers
shot Mt each other and the wonder Is
that no man was hit. The shutters on
shoe shop. on the pike. were rIddled
with bullets. Arrests will be made as
soon US the authorities get the names
of the warriors.
Some time during the night thieves
entered the Baltimore & Ohio depot,
and distracted property therefrom.
Constable Anderson was In the Grove
yesterday conducting an investigation.
