AT a quarter after five o'clock Friday af-
ternoon John A. Cockerill, managing editor
of the Post Dispatch, shot and killed Col.
Alonzo w. Slayback of the law firm of
Broadhead, Slayback Il Haeussler, the
scene of the homicide being the editorial
rooms in the second-story of the
Post.Dispatch building on the north side
of Market street, between Fifth and Sixth,
St. LOUIS.
The cause Of trouble was an article which
appeared in the Post Dispatch Friday after
noon, which was called forth by speech
made by Col. Slayback at political gath
ering the day before, in which the Post.
Dispatch and its editor were denounced
After reading the assault on him in the
Post-Dispatch while in Mr., CIopton's Office,
COL slayback became indignant and re-
quested Mr, Clopton to accompany him to
the office. AS Mr.. Clopton had business
with the publishing house next door, he
assented The two gentlemen entered the
Office, SIayback leading the way. He said to
Mr. Clopton that an apology for the injury
done him would not make amends-he
would first slap the writer's face and de-
mand an apology afterwards. He did not
intend, however to carry his hostilites be-
You'd the blow of his hand.
Col. Slayback and his companion found
tie door of the local room adjoining the
editorial room on the east open, and Trough
this he passed, followed by Mr. Clopton.
1t was after business hours and the re.
portcrs engaged on the paper had oil left
the building. Mr.. Henry NJ. Moore, the
city editor, who was the only occupant of
the room, was seated at his desk ia the far
corner writing.
lie looked up as Col. Slayback entered
and almost Immediately turned to his desk
again.
There was but the distance of a few feet
to pass between the outer door and the inner
entrance, and both gentlemen went into the
editorial room.
Mr.. Cockerill was at his desk. With
him IN consultation were Mr.. John Nc
Guifin, the business manager, and Victor
Cole, the foreman Of the composing room.
Col. Slayback as he entered was
