 that Jones after receiving assistance from McCann and Brown approached
 McCann in the room of Sarah Bailey. | his gun in his hand, and accused Mo- ! Cam of "bothering' his chickens, say ing: T always talk to niggers be- fore kill 'em.''

 Brown, who is negro. was bound over to the grand jury under a bond of Al. Ss I. some, well known white men, went on the negros bond and he was released. Brown gave himself up to the police a little over a week ago, sometime after the shooting of Jones, and has been out on bond.
 The defendant claimed that he shot Jones in self-defense, but the prosecu- tion showed to the satisfaction of the magistrate that Brown tried to kill s,. was employed to prosecute the case He was assisted by City Attorney Schafer. Attorney Mcleod represent ed Brown.
 The shooting of Brown occurred the first week in February at a tenement on Plant Street Jones, a well known negro, regarded as an inoffensive char acter, was moving his household effects into a house in which other negroes dwelled when he was shot by Brown after a quarrel between Jones, Brown about the alleged theft of chickens by McCann.

At that time it Was reported that Brown and McCann were armed and had sworn to kill officers who at tempted their arrest They were fol- lowed short distance.
 During the trial this morning the defense argued and tried to prove that the purpose of the escape of the two negroes was to avoid a mob that it was reported to them was forming to take them. McCann said they went to Bessemer and staid there until a let ter from Browns employer came tell ing him to return. By that time it was known that Jones would recover.
