BEFORE MAYOR LEE. The clerks and callers in the store of Mr. W. C. Parker were re¬ galed this morning by a nice little “breeze” stirred up by Mr. Dean Newman, representing Lippman Bros., and Mr. J. R. Flagg, repre senting the drug house of Boykin, Carmer & Co., of Baltimore.

Mr. Newman appears to have attempt¬ ed to make some explanation which Mr Flagg declined to ac¬ cept, applying some epithets to Mr. Newman which he resented in rath¬ er vigorous language and a proposi¬ tion to settle the matter “according to the code,” The case was reported to Mar¬ shall Kendrick, and he invited the belligerent gentlemen to appear be¬ fore Col. Lee; who, after lis¬ tening to the testimony, concluded to let the case Mr. go Newman, by imposing a fine of $3 upon as tax on the profanity indulged in upon the occasion.
