Selma, Ala., April 16.—J. A. Minter and M. R. Dudley, two prominent planters, engaged in a fatal duel at Tylers, 11 miles east of this city, at an early morning hour.

He was sitting in his buggy when the shooting took place, and as soon as he was shot turned his horses’ heads toward home, a mile and a half from the scene of the affray. He realized that he could not hold out until he reached home and stopped at a negro cabin and had a doctor sent for. He is fatally wounded. The exact particulars of the shooting cannot Ik: learned, as there were no witnesses to tin- duel and both men refuse to talk. There has been an old feud between the men for several

years past.
