fist fight between Mayor Nea,

attorney. created a sensation In Ham
ilton yesterday. The fight occurred
on Broadway, the main street, and
Billingsley was knocked down in the
fight. Efforts have been made to sill.
ence the matter and keep 1T out OF the
courts.
The trouble was the result OF a ne.
tition Billingsley has been circulating
to have the streets and sidewalks OF
Hamilton cleaned UP. Billingsley had
gotten many signers to the petition
and meeting the mayor on the street
he decided it would be good scheme
to have the chief executive officers
name attached to it and he asked
Mayor Daugherty to sign.
The mayor accepted this as an in.
suit and began to abuse Billingsley
who was not slow to retaliate. The
attorney became excited and started
to take his coat off but the mayor
was on the alert and Selling his OPP
portunity he planted hard blow on
Rillingsley face, knocking him down
Billingsley jumped up saying that
he could whip five like the mayor but
the crowd which was attracted b.
the scene interfered and separated
the two bloodthirsty men. The at.
torney threatened to have the mayor
arrested but it is thought that hts
friends have prevailed upon him to
let the matter drop.
Whether Eillingsley's threat that he
could whip five like the mayor had
any effect or whether the mayor was
impressed with the worth of the petit
ton is not known, but there was an
effort made to clean the streets rare
yesterday afternoon.
Hamilton people say that trouble
has been brewing for some time be-
tween the two men. Billingsley was
formerly superintendent of the
schools and is now engaged in the
Practice of law. He Is also leader
in the prohibition party. Neither man
has issued formal statement CON
