JONES |ND|CTEDFOR
 ROWAN MURDER Grand Jury Makes 1nvesti- gatiOn at Montgomery SMITH ALSO INDICTED Jones' Indictment Believed to Be the Speediest in County's History.
 Two Will Be Arraigned
 Saturday
SMITH ALSO INDICTED

Montgomery, July 17.-(Special.)-The Montgomery county grand Jury this aft ernoon indicted c. Walter Jones for the murder of Sloan Rowan, which occurred last night on a passenger train just as it was leaving the union depot Louis Smith was indicted for the murder q Brooks Fuller, which occurred on Com merce street nearly month ago. Both indictments were for murder in the first degree.
 The indictment of Jones is believed to be one of the speediest in the history of Montgomery county. The killing oc- cured Tuesday night at 8 o'clock, and IS hours later the grand jury returned an indictment for murder in the first de- gree.
 Both Jones and smith will be arraigned before Judge Armistead Brown of the city court at 12 o'clock next Saturday, at which time a date will be set for the trial. It Is understood that attorneys for the defendants will plead for longer time in which to prepare their cli- ents cases.
 The regular work of the grand jury was set aside this morning in order that the cases against Jones and Smith might be called, and the two men were indicted at o'clock in the afternoon. Smith, who was out on bond was remanded to jail this afternoon.
 Comment on Murders
 Considerable comment has been heard in Montgomery relative to the killing of Sloan Rowan, a prominent resident of Benton, in Lowndes county, who was shot while sitting in his seat oqs a moving train last night by C. Walter Jones, under 5000 bond in connection with ar- son charges.
 This makes the second killing that has taken place in Montgomery within the past month, the first having been that of Brooks Fuller, saloon proprietor of Montgomery, who was shot while passing along Commerce street in an automo- pile.
 These two murders. one on a crowded thoroughfare, and the second on pas senger train, have occasioned considera- hle comment and public sentiment is strongly denouncing the apparent spirit of lawlessness which seems to have sprung up in Montgomery within the last few weeks.
 All comment has been to the effect that some action should be at once taken to bring about a more wholesome respect for law and order, several persons having compared the situation with that which prevailed in Bloody Beat No. 22," in Jefferson county.

Result of Arson Hearing

The shooting of Rowan IS believed to have been the outgrowth of the arson hearing in Benton some weeks ago, when Jones, j. H. Fielder and w. J. Bowling. all of Benton. were each placed under a 5000 bond to await the hearing of the Lowndes county grand jury.
 Rowan is said to have been one of the most lawabiding citizens in Lowndes county, and was a witness for the state in the preliminary trial of Jones, Fielder and Cowling. IL is said that ne had busted himself in endeavor to find out some thing in connection with the case, and that he was one of the foremost citizens of Benton in attempting to bring about a reign of law and order in that section of Lowndes county.
 Since Jones temporary residence in Montgomery, where he removed after the arson hearing, he has been under the watch of the sheriff and his deputies. Sheriff Hood declared that he was de- termined that the Bowndes county feud should not be brought into Montgomery county, and at the time of the killing there was a policeman and deputy sher- if at the depot, but neither of the off cers saw Jones enter the station.
 Rowan's body was removed to his home at Benton today, where the funeral will be held.
