Brockus returned to Williamson this afternoon and reported that shots were not fired from the Kentucky side he said, but added that an hour later the shooting became general.
 Shots were still being fired from a ridge on the West Virginia side when the captain and his men reached the scene. They entered the mountains and on the ridge found a series of stone breastworks and many empty shells. The captain said he believed that from 10 10 20 persons were in the firing party.
 Later, according to Captain Btockus, shots were fired into Auburn from a ride on the Kentucky side of the river. Ballard Hall of that village was struck in the ankle by a bullet. Telephone wires between Auburn and Matewaa, w. Va, were cut before the shooting commenced.
 Late today Sheriff Pinson employed bloodhounds in an effort to run down the persons who fired from the West Virginia border.
 Both Blackburry City and Auburn are located in the Williamson coal fielu where a miners strike has been in progress for many months.
