moot would he an insurrection in east-
ern Cuba.

apprehensive lest It too become a

FUSILADE
OF BULLETS
BATTLE BETWEEN NEGROES AND
WHITES YESTERDAY.
Some Fifteen Shots Fired at Close
Range and No On Hurt Arose
Over Very Trivial Matter Offi-
cers Soon on the Scene.
Yesterday afternoon holwouii halt
past six ami seven o'clock a shootlug
affray occurred between a negro
named Choetorlleld '1 ramble and sev
enil white men. The shooting took plnc
on Uafct Malu street In front of ljvl
Hlgglnbottom's place. The uxrtct
cause of lhe trouble is not definitely
learned as there are several versions
f the slnry. The 0110 most generally
told Is lo tho effect that a crowd -1
white men in which were Irh Foo-
shee .lim Baker J. A. Fooshoe. Lon
(Ji lllln Home Savage and W. C. Vebi
and several otners walkeil Into Levi
lIlKKliibottom'H driiiK ng place and
culled for the drinks. At this a party
or negroes who were standing at tho
bar moved away. There n ust have
been some words betweo 1 the two
parties Tor as soon as the white 111 1
got 011 the Htreet one of tho iiWRive;
who was at the bar ran l ack Into hr
place and procured a kui ltunnirsr
out ho began llrlug. It Is snlil ho fired
twice before the white men got their
guns out. When they did "ho fuslUJe
began. II Is said that 1U.r0 w.r"
three guns In the unrtv ;if whit 3 mm
One or these guns win In the hands or
Irb Fcoaheo and another In tho hnnds
or Jim Baker. Who had the otiier gun
ir thero waB one la not known. When
the rtmoko cleared away It was loarnt-1
that no one had been ..it. That this
was tho case Is til most a miracle as
the street where P'o shoo)K to iv
place was filled with nt-roes: also the
tWO Lp.'Hlug IMltii" Wt WutO llo'llg
the hhootlng wore not more than ten
feat apart when die firing began.
Ihoro wero about fourteen or fifteen
shols fired probably nipro than that.
as I raniblo omuicd his gun as. It
is said one of the wlilto men did.
It Is Huld thro was nuotho negro
'111 tho mixiip who nlso did sonic shoot-
lug out ir this Is tho caso he has not
been found.
Tho story as .told by tho J'oosho
boys Is to the elfect that thoy wit.
their party had been ovor in tho oast
part of tne city to sell a beef to a.
man over thero. When they wore re-
turning they passed through a crowd
or negroes In front of Mlggiuhottom's
place. As they were passing through
tills party of negroes thoy said Tram-
hie caught W. C. Webb. 0110 of the
while men by tho arm and whirled
him half around. At this tho entire
party stopped lib Fooshoe who Had
some trouble some nine ago with a.
negro on West Main street came up
and told tho negro to turn Webb loose.
It Is said Tramblo said "O yes I
know you" and c"-sed Fooshoe. It
Is said Tramblo nindo the remark i.
will get my gun end kill ovory one of
you." Ho ran Into Hlglnbottom's place
and caino back with a gun. This la
tho version given by the Fooshoe boya
and Wobb. '
Vnen tne shooting had atoppod Jack-
Walters a negro outside guard at the
Jail ran up to urrest tho prty. Uep
uty Irby arrlvod about this time as
