THE NEWS OF SELMA
Advertiser Bureau.

selma, July 14.
 This morning about s:30 o'clock, at the corner of Jones and Union Street Policeman Charles H. Logan shot and instantly killed negro by the name of William Crum. Crum was resisting arrest. and it is claimed that Officer Logan acted fin self-defense. There was no witnesses to the shooting. and after 1t was over Mir Logan stayed and watched the body of the negro until Chief of Police Walters arrived and placed him under arrest.
 The negro Crum had the reputation of being bad citizen and a violent death had often been predicted for him. For sometime past Policeman Logan has been after him to pay his street tax. Crum would always put the of ficer off with some excuse. The negro herds cows, and this morning. after driving the cows to the pasture. near the mouth of Valley Creek. he started back to his home in the English Row
 At the corner of Jones and Union Street he met Officer Logan who again got after him for his street tax. The two had some words and Logan told the negro that If he did not pay the taxes that he would have to arrest him. This made Crum mad and he told Logan that he would die and go to hell before he would be arrested. The officer then started to put his hands on the negro, when the latter drew back and raised some tin shingles that he held in his hand as if he was going to hit the of- ficer. --. s...-
 When the negro drew the tin shingles back, Officer Logan pulled his pistol. and before Crum could hit him with them, shot the negro twice. Both of the wounds inflicted would have been fatal, and the negro was dead before he fell to the ground. One of the bullets passed through the center of the ne- gro's heart and the other struck him in the face about an inch below the left eye. The pistol used was 44-calibre one and both the bullets made big holes where they struck.
 After the negro was shot some one in the neishborhood telephoned the in formation to Chief Walters at police headquarters. who immediately went to the scene of the shooting. After shoot ing the negro, Logan stood guard over his body until the arrival of Chief Wal ters. who placed him under arrest and suspended him from the force until af- ter an investigation. The body of the negro was picked up and carried to the undertaking establishment of Jud Bris- lin. where it was prepared for burial
 The preliminary trial of Logan will be held before Mayor Atkins in police court tomorrow morning, when 1t will be decided whether he acted in self defense or not. Logan Is a new mem Der of the force. having been put on the 1st of last May. Since then he has made a conscientious and careful of- ficer. and while it is thought by some that he acted a little hastily in shoot ing Crum, his friends believe that the trial tomorrow morning will exonerate him. and that he will be put back on the police force.
