Westville, Fla, Nov. 1S.-Henry
Simmons, a young white man of a re-
spected family of this section, was
shot down and killed yesterday morn
ing about o'clock and, upon return of
a charge of murder against him, a
young man named Johnson, hailing
from the Geneva, Ala, neighborhood,
has been locked UP. The coroner S
jury. holding an inquest Immediately
after the young mans death, came to
the conclusion that johnson shot and
caused thedeath of young Simmons.
The inquest was held before Coroner
Hawkins.
Two stories were told about the
shooting. The tragedy occurred AT
Mrs. NARROW, where several rows, 1t
is said, have occurred recently.
1t appears that young Simmons, ac-
companied by companion named Dan
Sellers, made their way to the Mar
low woman's house at 5 o'clock Sun
day morning and found the door
closed to them. They soon found, il
was alleged, another man was in the
house. 1t developed that this man
was johnson. Upon being told TO
open the door, it was stated, the wom-
an refused, and that was really the
cause of the trouble. The woman tes-
titled before the coroner that the two
young men were in the act of forcing
an entrance to her house when, in
protection, she shot one time, kill
ing young Simmons.
A different version was Sworn to by
Sellers when the inquest was held.
It was stated that johnson stood be-
hind the woman and fired the fatal
shot, and it was upon such showing
that he was formally charged with
the killing.
A widowed mother survives young
Simmons. An elder brother also re-
sides here.

BY Associated Press.

Leavenworth, Kas., Nov. 13.-"Gen-
erals in command in our army are not
well enough acquainted with their
men," said Henry T.. Stimson, secre-
tary of war, when with Major General
Leonard Wood he arrived here today
to inspect the Fort Leavenworth post.
I'm the Spanish American war, for
instance, commanders went to the
front without even having seen their
subordinate officers.
Our smaller posts must be done
away with and more men modified in
one place. 1t takes too long to get
the fighting force of this country to-
gether. And when the men get to-
gether they are not acquainted"
Mr.. Stimson said that after his tour
of inspection he would be ready to an
nounce what posts should be aban-
doned and what ones should be en-
larged to accommodate the centraliz-
ing movement.

with the president, expressed the
opinion that 1t would be impossible
to pass any antitrust legislation
