! Clemento Ronollee, one of the Ttal

between himself and two companions
on the one side and John Price. Of
Paw-Paw, on the other, last Saturday
afternoon, died In the Cumberland
hospital yesterday. making the third
death rs q result Of the duel. The
other two Italians died a shot time
after being shot.
According to special dispatch from
Cumberland, the Baltimore a. Ohio
railroad officials have put two de-
tectives to work on the case. with
the intention OF charging Price with
starting the fight by knocking down
one OF the Italians without prevoca.
ton. The same dispatch states that
he SHOT the Italians when they were
making no demonstration against him,
This Is in direct contradiction to the
statement made by several eye-wit-
nesses to the affair, among them was
Mr.. John J. Hetzel of this city. Mr..
Hetzel was passenger on the train,
aud is fully acquainted with all the
details of the shooting, He says that
the Italians were the aggressers at the
start, and just before the shooting
took place he saw the three men stand
ing between two coaches jabbering
away at each other and that one had
revolver In his hand. Mr.. Hctxel
sought to prevent further trouble by
calling an officer to arrest the men,
but none responded, and In short
time the shooting began.
Mr.. HetzeI was emphatic in his
statement that Price acted solely in
self-defense, and after the shooting he
secured the names and addresses of
several Of the eye-witnesses, all of
whom said they would willingly testi-
fy In behalf of Price. II the latter
were put upon trial. Price is now In
iail at Berkeley Springs, but IL is not
believed he will even be indicted by
the grand jury.

result of injuries received in an au-

the chauffeur, Louis Zerjox Of Albany,
