In the Superior Court this morning
the trial of ex Deputy Sheriff James S.
Wilcox, for the homicide of John +.
Brothers, was begun. Several hours
were occupied in getting II satisfactory
jury. The States attorney objected to
the Sheriff or any of his deputies call
ing the Jurors, as that officer is the
brother OF the defendant. Eiually,
after much discussion, both sides
agreed on Mr.. @. w. Ward to call the
Jurors. A jury that both the State and
dofnnse were satisfied with was not
gotten until nearly noon.
The State then opened the case by
putting Mrs. Sherlock, mother of the
man killed by Wilcox. on the stand .
Her statement, in substance, was that
Wilcox came to the house occupied by
herself and son on tho morning of the
shooting and asked Brothers for Ger
| tiicate of registration for u colored
man, which he refused to give him
unless the man applied IN person.
Some words passed aud her sou order

go no further than the door, and drew

that Pannill did stupeDdous business
at kiting checks through the bank with
the permission of Teller Hammer, but
without the sanction or knowledge of
the other bank &iliciuls. Frequently
book would show balance to his
credit, whereas. in fact, he was Mt these
various periods largely indebted to the
bank, his over-drgfts being concealed
by the teller. 1t was also disclosed
that Pnnnill deposited some of those
checks more than eighty times in the
course OF three or four mouthe, and,
although saiaried railroad clerk at
go per month he did So 600 worth of
fictitious business at the bank during
