# Charley Jackson, a negro employed at Berlin's stable for more than twel- #ty years, and J. w. Carter, an aged negro man, who spends most of his time in Little Rock, although this is known to be his home, occupy cells in the Jefferson county jail and will be held pending an investigation. Both are charged with complicity in the assassination of Albert McVay, the wealthy cattle dealer, who was cow ardly murdered at his home, Twen- ty-third and Hazel street, Sunday night at 9 o'clock. The details of the tragedy are still fresh in the minds of the people of this section of the State. McVay was shot while The assassin used a double barrel shotgun. McVay lived until f o'clock Monday afternoon.
 Jackson was arrested Thursday night at an early hour by Sheriff c. M. Philpot and Constable Frank Stew art, after all anonymous letter had been received from Argenta, Ark, in forming the local authorities that Jackson knew something about the tragedy. Carter was placed under ar rest in Little Rock yesterday by the same two officers who have worked almost continuously since the fatal shooting in an effort to place the blame and arrest the guilty murderer Or murderers. Jackson was placed in jail Thursday night and remained there throughout yesterday and will be held until the Investigation is at an end. Carter was brought to Pine Bluff last night at 6:10 o'clock by Sheriff c. M. Philpot and Constable Stewart and placed in jail. Both of the negroes declare their innocence
 Mysterious Letter.
 Upon the return of Chief of Police Al J. Stewart from Clarendon Thurs day afternoon he found among a lot of letters he received during the day, one addressed to him as "Chief Stew art The address and letter were written with a pencil and the spelling and punctuation were almost perfect. On the back of the envelope was printed the business card of "Claud Lowery, Attorney -at-Law, Argenta, Ark" The sender made an unsuc- cessful effort to scratch out the print ed words in the corner of the envel- ope, but the officers here finally made it out and the arrest of Carter yester- day at the capital w2s the result of this piece of work
 The letter was written on a plain piece of paper and was about as fol- lows:
 eff you want to learn something about the MT. Albert McVay killing, arrest Charley Jackson, a negro who works at stable on Barraque street. The man with him did the killing. I held the horses and got some of

in for Charley Jackson, because he i was paying a woman friend of his some attention, and that, he says, is what prompted him to write the let , ter, believing that he could get Jack son out of the way. With these state ments he was still persistent that he never saw Charley Jackson and that he had only heard his name and knew where he worked through the woman in the case. Jackson is equal ly confident that he never saw or heard of Carter Jackson's statement is believed by the officers, but Carter has repeatedly contradicted himself and the officers are confident that they will either get some valuable information from Carter or the Wom an he has been paying some atten- ton. Tn the event that Carter proves his innocence of any connection with the McVay case the Federal authori ties will in all probability prosecute him for attempted blackmail.
 Advancing Many Theories.
 The police and other officials here are in a quandary as to the object of Carter in addressing his letter to Chief Stewart, unless, as he says, it was pure jealousy. Many perons are confident that the murder of Albert McVay was the work of white man. as they say it was too well planned for negro to carry out Another letter, written by Carter in Argenta yesterday morning, was confiscated by Sheriff Philpot and may bring new light upon the case. It was ad dressed to negro woman here and the officers are withholding the con tents from the public. Among other things, Carter is alleged to have writ ten that he would return to Pine Bluff wanted her to meet him at Twelfth ayenueand Cherry street. Saturday. He said he was coming to Pine Bluff.
 Carter We'll Known.
 Carter is well known. When ar rested in Little Rock by the officers he referred them to former Governor Dan w. Jones as to his character Gov. Jones said he was always good negro and that he had never known him to get into trouble of any kind Carter says he was in the Confeder- ate army during the war between the states and mentioned among those who knew him then, Monsignor J. M. Lucey, pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic church here He asked the officers to inform Vicar General Lucey of his imprisonment
