Monroe, Jan. 27.?This morn inn at, 11 o'clock the people o thie place were much startled am distressed to know that a tragedy had been enacted in the store room of the Heath-Lee Hardwan Company, '^wherein Mr. J.

LI< came to Monroe about two year ago and was engaged as salesuini by the Heath-Loe Hardware Co at the time of the fatal occurrence Last Sunday he was married t< M isa Lula Dostot, daughter o Mr. J. F. Doster, of this county at Waxhaw. Mr. Wilhelm ha been living in Monroe six or eijh years and has been connected witl a distillery, a store and sonn lumber basinets here, and latterly in South Carolina. For semt time he or his wife conducted tin old Ceitral Hotel hero and onlj moved out of it about the 1st o this month. About Christmas some senna tional stories were to some extonl circulated as to an alleged occui rence between Wilhelm and Eu ' milks at lliu Cwiiti ill Hotel, when the latter boarded. The facts ai to that difficulty are difficult tc ascertain, an also in the preset! instance; but Kubunks came ou of it with hruisrs about the cyei and allowed signs of having beet roughly bundled. This broach was appareatlj healed until the developments o: this week showed the contrary The facts, as stated, are closely withheld by those who know any thing, but, it is said, Wilheln approached Eubanks last Mondaj for an affidavit to cleat up rumors This Kubunks refused, except t( clear himself. Yesterday after noon Wilhelnti songht Kubunks foi another interview, which was ap parently without result. Toda^ about 11 o'clock, while Eubanki was engaged in measuring of rope, he was approached aeain bi - I k o w NVilhelm and struck on tho heat twice with a piece of iron, beinj felled to the floor. Eubanks be gaa to fire and shot four times three s';ots taking effect. On* ball struck the left arm and ranget up into the bhoulder. One she struck tho left side three inche below loft nipple, four inches t< left of median lino, ranging up wards. One shot struck Wilhelin' hand as ko was probably tryinj to wrench tho pistol away fron Uubanks. This is shown blood on the pistol and powde stains, on Vilhelm's hand. Th< latter fell, and died in 30 minutes He had no pistol, so far as known while Eubanks was armed wit! two and seemingly, therefore,lex pecting an attack.
