Spartanburg, Dec. 15.?One man was killed and one wound ed as the result ot a dilliculty at GafFney this morning between a man named llastv, manager ol the hotel, and members ot the "Nothing But Money" theatrical troupe. The shooting was done by Hasty, who is now in jail. Night betore last, it is said, Ilasty insulted one ol tho women of the show, but nothing was said about the matter at the time. Last night, it is alleged, he attemted to climb over the transome into the room ol" another woman, but did not succeed. This morning Abbott Davison an J a man named Bonnet t, both members of the company, told ILndy that I lie company was composed of ladies and penile men and that it was unbecoming in !)im to act as lie had. Hasty then invited the men on the outside to talk tho matter over and when the open was reached ho opened lire, killing Bennett and seriously woundin r Davision. The citizens ot (iallney are in dignant against the liotel man. Later?Davison has since died of his wounds.
