SUNDAY AT JACKSONVILLE

| JACKSONVILLE, Fla, April 7.-Brit | Glenn, commonly known as "Kid
 Charlie,' ' a negro gambler and desperado,
 ran'amuck here early this morning, and as
 a result two men are dead and three
 wounded, one of them probably fatally.
 The killed:
 NAPOLEON sTUCKS, a negro porter
 employed in Ricker's saloon; shot in the
 throat and his neck broken.
 EDWARD MINOR, policeman; shot | through the heart.
 | The wounded:
 | JIM CLEMoNs, negro commonly known l as s'Rag Jim;'' shot in the right thigh; artery thought to be severed, and may die.
 JAMES MINOR, lieutenant of police; shot | in the right ankle; wound slight. | NEGRO BooTBLACK, name unknown;
 shot in the right thigh; wound slight. l Sucks was the first man killed by Glenn,
 and it was while resisting arrest that he
 killed Policeman Ed Minor and wounded 1 the others, whose names are given above. | Sucks was killed about l o'clock this | morning In the "Rabbit Foot' saloon, notorious negro dive on West Bay street. l A crowd of negroes were in the saloon,
 and Glenn drew pistol on negro named
 
 Sucks jokiugly said that he would take | the pistol away from Glenn and advanced l towards him. He passed by Glenn, how 1 ever, and went toward the 'free and easy''
 room in the back part of the saloon. As he neared the door he turned around and l Glenn pulled out his pistol and fired. l Sucks was standing just in front of the l door at the time. No words had passed be- l tween the two men and no quarrel of any l kind was heard. As soon as Sucks was l shot he rushed out of the front door of the saloon and fell dead near the steps. Ex- l animation showed that the bullet had l struck him in the throat, just above the l Adams apple, and passed through, Dreak- 1 ing his neck.
 Glenn turned and fled as his victim was l falling, pursued by 8 large crowd of ne- 1 groes, who soon lost sight of him in the l darkness.
 l Shortly after that Minor, Sheriff Bowden l and other officials, arrived on the scene l and began an organized search for Glenn. | All the negro dives in the western portion l of the city were searched, and about
 o'clock this morning the officers started l their game.
 "Rag Jim,o one of the negroes subse- l quently shot, was in front of the pursuers l and he found the negfo hfatug in McCoy's creek, hall mile west rom | the scene of the murder.
 l When "Rag Jim'' sighted Glenn he l gave the halo. The murderer then ran | out followed by. a crowd of people. Glenn | passed quickly by the saloon where he had l killed Sucks several hours before. He headed for East Jacksonville, probably | hoping to escape in a swamp which lies some distance beyond the city limits. | Glenn was fleet of foot and EASILY DIsTANCED | all of his pursuers save 'sRag Jim,' who l held on like grim deafh. This was about 6 o'clock in tie morning, and the streets | were deserted save for tbe fleeing negro | and his pursuers.
 Finally the murderer by desperate spurts succeeded in leaving even "Rag Jimo be- | hind. By this time the chase had led into | East Jacksonville, and the officers were | gathered near Hotel Roseland, completely | at fault. Just as they were about to aban- | don the pursuit in that direction, the little | bootbiack, who was afterwards wounded, | came running up, and said that he had seen | the negro running into barn near the ho- l tel. At that time Lieut.. James Minor, his | brother, Ed Minor, and Policeman Davis l were the only officers present, but they were accompanied by large crowd of ne- ] groes, who were as intent on capturing | Glenn as the officers, as Sucks, the mur- | dered man, had been favorite with his l race.
 On learning that the negro was in the 1 barn, the officers and crowd approached. l Policeman Ed Minor and Lieutenant Jim l Minor were the first to enter. They found l that the negro had climbed up into loft in | the barn and was lying behind a pile of I Ea cade. lieutenant Minor called on Glenn l to surrender, and the negro answered with
 a shot. The officers returned the fire, | emptying their pistols, but the negro was | effectually protected by the lumber. The | Minors stepped out to reload, and "Rag | JimD rushed into tho barn. In a moment | he staggered out, bleeding from danger | ous wound in the thigh. Then the Minors | re-entered and the fusilade again began. | Soon, Ed Minor handed his pistol to his 1 brother, the lieutenant, saying, 'Jim, l Pm shot.' Then the brave fellow stag | gered in the barn, lay down on the grass, | and
 IN THREE MINUTES WAS DEAD. The little bootblack who had disclosed the hunted mans place of hiding here en- | tered the door, only to receive bullet in | his thigh, which, however, did not inhict | @ serious wound.
 | The fusilade had now continued for ten | minutes and of the four men who entered | the barn to arrest Glenn one was dead and | two were wounded. Lieut.. James Minor, | however, was still in the barn firing at | Glenn, who lay in safety behind the lum- l Der. Suddenly Glenn rose up and fired | and dropped back behind the lumber | Then Lieutenant Minor felt his ankle give | way and knew that he was wounded. But | exhausted Glenn's ammunition and the next moment he called out: 'Lieutenant, l I'll give up If you won't let lem kill me.' "All right,'' replied Minor. sThrow | down your pistol and come down." The negro obeyed and the next minute Lieu l tenant Minor led hls prisoner from the l harm. As the lieutenant stepped forth with | his prisoner the first object that his eyes | fell upon was the corpse of his brother Ed
