SHERIFF SHOT NEGRO
RICHARD MORRIS KILLED BY
 MONTGOMERY DEPUTIES.
He Was Accused of Murdering White Man at Marbury and Tried to
 t' Kill Sheriff Waller =. Yesterday.

Sheriff w: R. Waller, of Montgomery County, and three of his deputies, shot and instantly killed Richard Morris, a negro, near McGehee's Switch, about $50 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The deputies declare that Morris had a double barreled shot gun aimed at Sheriff Waller. when they shot the ne- gro. and had they hesitated second later the Sheriff would most surely have been killed.
 Morris was wanted for killing a white man, Hicks. at MarbuTy, about four months ago. Sheriff Waller and his dep uties had a warrant for his arrest. The warrant charged him with murder. It will be remembered that the murder of Hicks at Marbury threw the little town into a fever of excitement and 1t was feared that one negro who was cap tured would be lynched. This negro es- capped and was subsequently, captured Morris wasksaid to be the real murderer and he was recently located at point in Lowndes County, just across Pintlala Creek from McGehee's Switch, and just beyond the Montgomery County line. It Is said he removed to this point imme- diately following the tragedy at Mar bury.
 A warrant for the arrest of Morris was sent to Sheriff Waller from Autauga County He was advised that Morris was a desperate negro, and it would be neces- sary to capture him by strategy.
 About l2:3O oclock yesterday afternoon Sheriff Waller accompanied by Deputy Sheriffs Young. Belser and McLemore, left for the purpose of arresting the ne- gro.
 Deputy Young narrated what happened at the home of the negro. He said when the Sheriff's party reached the place Nor ris was on the roof of the house building a chimney. The officers drove up and called to him to come down. Instead of complying he quickly produced a double barreled shot gun and levelled it at Sher- fir Waller.
 We all shot at once." said Deputy Young and the negro fell over dead. The wound which caused his death was an ugly hole in his right side. I couldn t say who killed him and we don't want to know. It was death for either him or the Sheriff, and it was our misfor- tune to have to kill him."
 Morris was about 45 years old. The body was turned over to the family of the negro and the sheriffs returned to Montgomery.
 As soon as Sheriff Waller reached his office he belephoned the Sheriff of Lowndes County the details of the kill ing.

control the ownership of corporations so engaged.
 When Attorney General Griggs had con- cluded. Attorney Watson began the close for the Cove; nmeht. He asserted that it was his purpose to demonstrate that the merging of railroad interests by the Northern Securities Company was a most willful violation of the antitrust act.
 Attorney Watson cited decisions of the United States Supreme Court at length to show that various phases of the mer- ger were in apparent violation of the sherman antitrust act. He declared that man has not the right to corner any commodity to such an extent as to engross the market nor monopolize a certain line of business. He asserted that, therefore, a corporation has not such right and that under the plain language of the second section of the antitrust act any corporation who shall monopolize or attempt to monopolize thereby violated the law which was su- preme and must be upheld.
 Court then adjourned and Attorney Watson will conclude tomorrow.

The Constitution dispatch was as fol-

The Constitution dispatch was as fol- lows:
 when Tom Jones and Jack Smith, two citizens of Montgomery. and brothers-in- law. fought in that city three weeks ago Jones shooting Smith to death in the fearful Sunday morning tragedy-the body of Smith was embalmed and brought to his former home near Americus for burial Soon thereafter Jones was dis charged from custody on preliminary ex- animation, the testimony evidencing the fact that he killed Smith in self-defense.
 Relatives of she dead man here are still dissatisfied with the story of the killing related at the time. and with the expectation of securing additional evi- dence in the prosecution of the case have just had Smiths body exhumed and crit icaIly examined by reputable physicians, Wounds found upon the body were evi- dently made with knife. but whether in the hands of the embalmer is to be determined.
 smiths relatives residing near Amer icus are wealthy and will employ the best detective skill in the hope or secur- ing additional testimony.
 'Some profess to believe that there IS a long unwrftten story of the deplorable family tragedy that will yet come to the surface Both Jones and Smith were reared in Americus and lived together In Montgomery" tive of The Advertiser yesterday saw G, A, Thomas, who embalmed the body of Smith MT. Thomas said that he saw no knife incision in Smiths body before embalming it. MT. Thomas added that to properly embalm the body he made an incision in the right arm about four inches above the elbow for the purpose of raising tho tracial artery.
 R. F. wylie, an embalmer who had charge of Smiths body when carried from the infirmary to the office of Coroner W. H. Tice said that the body had no knife wound in 1t before being turned over to MT. Thomas.
 Nothing further has developed in the case, and Jones has not been re-arrested.

 It will be remembered that on Sunday, February 2. J. A. Smith was shot and killed by his brother-in-law at the lat ters residence. 25 Cleveland, Avenue. in a difficulty which, evidence showed, was brought about by Smiths attack on his wife. sister of Jones. It appeared that Jones interfered and his life was threat ened by Smith Jones and his witnesses alleged that the shooting was done clear ly in self defense. and after being con fined in the county jail several days Jones was acquitted by justice of the Peace B. H. Screws.
 After investigation the remains of Smith were taken by relatives to his for mer home. Americus. Ga. and inferred.
