Speetal Dispateh to The Chicaoo Tribune, NEtsoxviLLy, 0, May 3—Coming hore this afternoon from Colwmbus to Investigate somewhat into the sining strike nnugurat- ed thronghout this valley yesterday, I found the conmnunity, which has kitherta been penceful and qulet, stirted up ton high de- gree of excitement by one of the cooless shuoting affraya on record. As 1 write, George Brooks, one of the vietims, more or Jess riddled with bullets, 13 being conveyed 10 the train for Logan, the (Hocking) county snat, and the other, Scott Love, with a bullet through his aldomen, Is lylng at the point of death at Orbiston, =a few miles mnorth of here, across the Hocking County lne, Orbiston is o ining settlement, at which place Is located tho Helen furnace. It hns & populntion of 801n© 200 persons, most of whom are miners -and furnace men, Love and Brooks are em- ployed at the furnnce, and have worked to- gether several years. Some time ngo they Dbecame engaged In a quarrel which origl- . nnted at o country dance, and has lasted until to-day. They are both young men, and Brooks lins been married little less than o year, and two days ago Mhis wife bore him a, child, Lnst night Drooks celebrated. this event by getting on n spree, and, returning fo the furnace, ie met Love, and the old feud was rekindled. Some hot words were: used, and n fight ensued. Brooks picked up n heavy plece of cinder and struck Love on the hend, rnd the fight ended forthe time, Love prom- jsing to renew hostilities in the morning. When morning arrived Brooks was Informed that Love had purehased a revolver, and he, too, prepared himself with a five-shooter, and proceeded with hisfriends to the turnace. There he met Love and a crowd of backers, Both were prepared for battle, and it did not take long to find sufficiont enuse. Followed by their respectivo cliques, tho two principals walked along together, callliig ench other hard names, until Love finally picked upn brick and threw itat Brooks' head. This Brooks warded off, but recelved asevere bruisoon theelbow. Atthe same time he drew n six-shooting 32-callbro re- volverund fived. The ball entered Love's abdomen, but hedld not fall. **Givelttohim back,” yelled one of the crowd, and Brooks also drow and fired. There were probably fty men circling around the combatants, ench urgiog his fuvorit to fire, and ench armed with a knife and pistol. The prinolpula noeded 10 encoursgemont, however. Long-buried hatred had burnt forth fn the bosom of cnch, and, Tronzled with excitoment, thoy fully dotermined o bottle the watter theroand thon. Tho vrowd yellod dnd tho fighting. continued unabutod. Love was firing n littlo fastor than hia opponent, but Drooks' alm scems to havo Loen none tho stondier for delny, The men wero standing,at short range, each lring altornutoly and in com- ‘paratively good ordor.
