A fight started in the room adjoining

some time after the shooting.

Setting Is Dramatic.
The setting for the affair was dra-

The demeanor of those gathered there
had led the chief of police to place a
large number of officers there. At the
time of the shooting, however, this
crowd had remained orderly.
