Tin w v stenographer, ('apt. A. M. Deal well known throughout the State and who has b*en prominent, ii social a flairs here for scvera years, denounced the detective whom he had introduced at Dr Earle's home as a "dirty, sneak ine spy for going to a gentle man's home in the capacity of a gentleman and as a detective,' and he would apologize for tak ing him into the presence o indies nnd gentlemen. And in th? succeeding breath shaking hii finger at Representative Lyou who was a guest at Dr. Earle'i and at Mr. G. R Rembert's told him that bringing out suet matters in (he circumstances die wiot square with hie ideas ol what constituted a gentleman, il it did with Mr. Lyon's. Mr. Lyon several times at tempted to suppress Mr. Deal but failed, and even the com Jhittae quieted him only after repeated effoits. Mr. Lyon defended himself by asking Mr. Deal il lie did not know Mr. Klingenberg's business when he escort ed him to Dr. E.rrle's home. "Yes, I did, and I look hin: 1here as a gentleman and not at ii spy," was llie hot re PlyMr. Klingenberg is a Western man of apparently limited op port unities in such matters, and his conduct is not so great, c surprise aa that of Mr. Lyon who was bred a gentleman. The tilt started on the heols of the testimony of ox Mayor E irle, who was indignant at the turi affairs took, though he did not hesitate to answer questions. J.
