Trouble Was Brought on by | Danaher, Who Withdrew After Getting Enough. | Andy Danaher, chairman of the board of county commis- sioners, ex professional wrestler and bartender, given a sound drubbing at Ten- | strike by a woodsman. The trouble started Saturday afternoon about 20’clock. Dana- her and another man were stand- ing in the lobby of the Stechman hotel, talking, After their con- versation had been finished the man with whom Danaher had had the conversation withdrew and began talking with Neil Mooney, a woodsman, Danaher walked up to the two men and attempted to get into the conyersation and Mooney objected, telling Dana- iher that the conversation was a private one. Danaher became angry and after a few words bad been passed between the two men Danaher pulled off his coat and invited Mooney to fight. The latter refused, saying that he had no greiyance against Dana- her. The county board chair- man persisted, however, and finally used much profane and indecent languagein the presence of a number of ladies who had i heard the disturbance. Mooney stood the fusilade of profanity for some time and finally con- sented to fight with Danaher. Mooney withdrew from the hotel a half block distant, Danaher following him, When the latter had reached the point where Mooney was awaiting his arrival Danaber “baked up” and went to the Hotel Richards, where he remained for some time, after- ywards retiring at the Leonard saloon, He arose yesterday morning and went tu the Stechman hotel, | where the event of the evening ibefore was discussed.

Shevlin. the Minneapolis mililon- aire lumberman, to declare void a transfer of stock between the two will have to be tried again.
