In Memory Of John Shlllito.

The following was read on Change to-
day:
John Shillito died at his home in this
city Sept. 10th in his seventieth year, the
last of the old dry goods merchants of Gin
cinnati.
Coming at an early period, his long life
measures almost the commercial history of
the city, having entered business
in 1880, struggling through years
of anxiety and at times against
almost overpowering competition, he at
tanned the highest mercantile rank. and
died in the full enjoyment of great sue
cess. He was distinguished for his
high sense of honor, gentlemanly courtesy.
and untiring energy in pursuit of any OBJ
ject suggestive of prosperity. He
was identified as an active co-laborer
in many enterprises, esthetical ana charita-
be, and gave his time and influence with a
free, generous spirit, bespeaking a deep in
terest. His death is calamity calling forth
a general expression of sorrow and
a full realization Of the loss to our city. We
make this record as a small tribute to the
memory of a highly respected citizen, con
spicuous as Christian gentleman and a
merchant of rare ability.

FUGITIVE FROM JUSTICE.
Interview With Ben. Morgan, the Murderer
of John Henderson.

OF J0hn henderson.
Benjamin f. Morgan was behind the bars
of the Ninth-street Station-house to-day,
having been placed there by B. F. Malloy,
Deputy Sheriff of Scott County, KY, for
safe keepinl until the departure of the4
O'Clock train on the Southern Railroad this
evening, when he will be taken to Scott
County. where he is wanted for the murder
of James Henderson on the 18th of August,
1877
The circumstances of the killing as related
by Morgan to a STAR reporter are about as
follows:
Henderson and Morgan were both neigh
bors living at small place in the northern
part of Scott County, known as Fluke's
store.
On the 18th of August, 1877, Morgan,
Henderson and some other parties were en-
gagged in game of cards in the woods near
Fluke's store, when quarrel ensued be-
tween Morgan and Henderson. The latter
drew a pistol and threatened to shoot Nor
gan, but was prevented from doing 50 by
the other parties engaged in the game.
The game was broken up by this row and
all the men went to Fluke's store. Here
Morgan armed himself with George Will
sons pistol and then requested Henderson
to shoot him if he could while he Nor
gam was armed and not to shoot him when
he was unprepared.
Henderson WASH suited with this propo-
sition, and instead proposed that they make
friends. and that all parties take drink at
his expense. TO this Morgan agreed. and
while Morgan was pouring out his liquor
Henderson shot at him through his pocket.
the ball striking Morgan in the leg.
Morgan whipped out his pistol and shot
Henderson in the left side, from the effects
of which he died in few moments. Nor
gan then went to the house of his father,
got horse, and rode TWENTY-FIVE miles to
to the Louisville Short-line Railroad.
He went t, Louisville, from there to
Seymour and then on to Rushville, Ind.
He rented farm near Knightstown, a
town fifteen miles north OF Rush
Vile. He sent for his wife and family, and
mas been residing there up to last Saturday,
when man named George Fleetwood gave
him away to James Clemens, United
States Detective stationed at Greensburg
Ind.
Clemens arrested him, and after locking
him up in the Greensburg Jail, telegraphed
for the Kentucky authorities.
Morgan has every appearance of being a
good, quiet, peacable citizen. He regrets
having committed the deed, but at the
same time thinks that he was fully justified
in killing Henderson. He feels assured
that 10 jury will ever convict him.
