There was a conference of counsel and client in the court-room, at tho conclusion of which Mr. (?oori_e 1). Wise stated to the Court that as they were not aware why the accused had be?n given up l?y hi? bondsmen they had no motion to make. Shortly after this Captain Epps lett the City Hall with his prisoner, who was taken to lu? homo for a few minutes and thence to the jail. It wits stated yesterday that one ot the reasons why Qnr_MB'? bmid-men pave him up was that it had been reported that he was seen in Cliatiottesvillc. His counsel positively deny tho truth of this, and say except going a few miles up and down the toad the accused was at Big Island all the time ho was away. Speaking to a Disr-ATcn man yesterday* Commonwealth's-Attorney Smith said that he had no authority to give permission to any one on bail to leave tho city. Such u person was in custody of his sureties. In tins particular instance he knew nothing of Grymes being out of the city until a few days before the grand jury met, when ono of the counsel asked him not to semi the case before that body last Monday, saying that Grymes was at Big Island and would be produced at the proper time. As to the bail-bond being forfeited in consec-uence of Grymes's non-appearance last Monday, for which timo ho was recog? nized. Mr. Smith said this was not the case.

Harvey, of Penasoola, and J. E. Alexander, of Deland. narvey has been one of the active workers for John F. Dunn in bis contest for the United States senatorship, and Alexander is here in Call's interest Harvev waa seated on the piazza when Alexander came up the ateos with W. H. Clark, ex-postmaster of Jacksonville. Harvey beckoned to Alex? ander to walk down the porch with him. Harvev had heard that Alexander had re? ported that ho (Harvey) had boasted that there was t'2.*>0,000 in hand at Tallahassee with which to clef catcall, and he asked Alexander if he had circulated this story, adding that he did not propose to let him or any other man tell damned lies about him. BOTH DBBW. Alexander asketl if Harvey meant to call him a liar, and upon Harvev'? replying "Yes." he struck Harvey a blow on the 1p ft templa. Then both men drew their pis? tols almost simultaneously. Harvey fired. Clark struck his arm up and the ball missed Alexander. Alexander turned and ran, and Harvey fired a second shot at him as he passed through the door. Clark, still straggling with Harvey, then ran to the door and fir-'l a third shot at Alex? ander as the latter disappeared through the back door ot the office leading to the barber-shop. None of the shot? took affect, with the exception of a spent ball, which hit Albertus Vogt in the foot, doing no in? jury. RAO TO noDOE. In a gToup within twentv feet of Harvev, when he fired und in a direct line of his shots, were E. EL Purdy, of Davton- J. G. Spottswood. A. Vogt, and F.W. Hawthorne, agent of the Associated Frees. They had to dodge the balls to escape being hita When Havey fired the third snot across tho office there were half a dozen people pass? ing in and out of the ?lining-room and up and down the stair*. But luckily no one was hit. Tho wildest excitement prevoded for a few tniuure?. and the whole hotel was in an uproar. Several minor altercations grew out of the affair, but nothing serious. HOW HABVEY OOT THE DBOP. Alexander says that his pistol caught in the case a? ho was pulling it from his pocket, which enabled Harvey to "get the drop " on him. After that he did not dare to fire tor fear of hitting Clark, who was Btruggling with Harvey. Alexander un douliteilly owes his life to Clark's inter? ference. No arrests were made, but the Mayor served notice on both men to appear in court Monday morning. TUET WILL HE FINED. It is predicted that ho will fine hoth men hoavily under two"or threo different charges. Alexander'? friends had told him earl-; in the day that Harvey was looking for him and that there would be trouble, and one of theso friends ha<l insisted that Alexander tako his pistol, which he finally did.
