ANOTHER MURDER.
Henry Benders, of Chelsea. Kills his
Friend. George Wyman, with
Billet of wood.
Particulars of fhe Sad Egenf-ThO Vie
tim Dies fn an Hour after Re-
ceiYInS the BLOW.

Henry Blenders, a blacksmith, was
arrested last night on the charge OF
killing boy named George Wyman.
The alleged murder is yelled in mystery,
like most of the Memphis tragedies, and
the most diligent efforts of the police
have proved unavaillng in finding out
anything like a correct idea of the facts
attending the murder. Justice Hoist
was notified OF the murder, and proceed
ed TO the place where "the dead body
lay,n but owing 10 the lateness of the
hour and the confusion of affairs, de-
ferred investigation until tomorrow.
So far as we have been able to learn.
the purported circumstances of the
murder are as follows: Blenders, who is
3 German, had been working for George
Wyman's father, who has q blacksmith
shop in Chelsea, not far from the Louis
vile depot. For some unknown reason
Blenders went away, and upon return
ing asked that Wyman pay him what
he owed linn, which was four dollars,
but was offered three dollars. An alter
cation then arose between the two men,
and George Wyman and his brother
took the part Of their father, who
pulled his workman by the beard. A
fight then ensued, during which Blenders
seized a billet of wood, with which he
struck George Wyman in the breast,
knocking him unconscious to the
ground. Blenders fled, and the uncon-
scious boy was carried to his father s
home near by, where he expired soon
after. Blenders was subsequently arrest
ed and placed in the Administered sta
tionhouse. He sweaTs that he knows
nothing about young Nyman's death.
He says he went to Wyman's shop about
five O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and
asked him to pay him four dollars. He
found that Wyman had employed a ne
gro, who, with an unknown white man,
was in the shop when he went there.
Wymsn pulled his beard, and, after
quarreling, they separated. He was ar.
rested shortly afterward, and told that
he had killed George Wyman.
