DESPERATE NEGRO
 SHOOTS DEPUTY
James Steadham Is Seriously
 Wounded at Riverside
WEBB STURKEY ESCAPES.
Negro Fires Several Shots at Men Who Attempt to Arrest Him for Holding Up His Former Employer
 With a Shotgun.

Riverside April 7.-(Special )-While att tempting to arrest Webb Sturkey, a ne- gro, on a charge of holding up Willis Payne, superintendent and general man ager of the Riverside Brick company James Steadham, acting deputy sheriff, was shot and most dangerously wounded in his face. The shot used was No, 3 from a repeating Winchester shotgun in the hands of the negro.
 The negro had worked for the brick company and yesterday the foreman. MT | Payne, discharged him. Later in the day the negro secured a Winchester shotgun and went back across the river to where Mr. Payne was. and demanding his pay. he was told by Payne that he didn't have any money on hand. At that the negro immediately threw his gun on MT. Payne and demanded of him to march to the office, unlock the safe and produce the coin. Payne, having no gun, proceeded to obey the negro's command by showing the negro he didn't have it. Then the negro turned and went to a nearby house. MT. Payne attempted to hold him until an of ficer from here could be sent for.
  company with Horace Afford and Macon Shell, started to the scene to arrest the negro. Just as Steadham, Afford and Shell started they met the negro coming over into town on the end of the bridge. He was called upon by Steadham to halt. He drew his gun and at that Stead ham began shooting. The negro In re- turn began shooting at Steadham Stead- ham was standing out in the open and in plain view, the negro being by this time being under Lathrop- -Hatten Lum Der company's sawmill, where he could get behind post for protection. Stead ham fired five times with SS special, neither ball taking effect. The last shot the negro fired hit Steadham in his face and forehead.
 Afford and Shell were not armed, there fore they could be of no assistance to Steadham.
 After steadham was shot he turned and walked back to where Afford and Shell were standing, and with the blood gushing from his face handed Afford his gun, and reaching for more cartridges to reload with, the negro slipped around in open view, aimed directly at Stead ham, Afford and Shell.
 Someone called the negro's attention and he shot wild. The shot took effect in a nearby railroad car, where carpenters were working. The negro ran down the street by Liggon's store, ran in behind the counter and snatched from the shelf a box of shells, telling them that some white men were trying to kill him and for them to charge the shells, and that he would pay for them later.
 The negro ran to the woods, and a posse headed by Sheriff Grove and all of his deputies are in pursuit.
 The negro sent word back by another negro that he did not propose to be cap tured alive, and he intended getting more of them before he was captured. The negro had not been captured at a late hour today.
 Deputy Steadham is in a serious condi- tion About 20 shot took effect in his face, neck and body.
