September 23, 1890 Chattanooga, Tenn., September 18 -- Dr. K. D. Davis, of Whiteside, Tenn., general manager of the AEtna mines, was shot while in his own yard today by some unknown party. It was done with a rifle of large bore. The ball penetrated the right breast and produced a probably fatal wound. The supposition is that the shot was fired by one of hte gang of striking miners, who for a few days have been quite boisterous in the vicinity of Whiteside.
