Much Excitement.

The shooting Immediately created
a great commotion on the upper deck
among the passengers, and along the
levee. The arrival of the police and
the arrest of Collins led to various
unsubstantiated rumors to the effect
that one or more parties had been
killed, but it was soon learned that
Griffith was the only man injured and
he was not seriously. McGee immedi-
ately disappeared and the boat is be-
ing held by the authorities until he is
turned over to the officers.
