SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.

Southport, Jan. 9.--Moses Dykes,
town constable was shot here yester-
day afternoon at 4:s0 O'Clock by
George Cannon, an oysterman, and
died at an early hour this morning

the state shell and fish commission,
was serving a warrant on Cannon for
removing oysters from the leased oys-
ter beds of l. A. Stewart and G. 7.
Anderson, when Cannon is alleged to
have pulled a shot gun, first on Gill
bert, who escaped unhurt, and then on
Dykes, pouring the fun load into the
latter's body just over his lungs.
After Dykes fell he shot five times
at his assailant, and Gilbert fired sew
en- times at him, but 1t is not known
if any of the shots were effective.
AS soon as Cannon saw his victim
fall he ran into a dense woodland.
and made his escape, OFFICERS at
every point have been notified and It
is not thought that Cannon can posi-
bly, elude them.
The shooting occurred at Cannonss
oyster landing where the officers had
gone to serve the warrant. After the
shooting Dykes was placed by Gilbert
and Roland Mason IN the Iatters'
launch and brought to the store Of the
Southport Mercantile Company where
he died at four o'clock this morning.
Three physicians were hastily sum-
moned and every thing done in an eff
fort to save the life of the injured
man, but owing to the nature of the
wound and the close range Of the gun
there was no hope Of his recovery
from the first.
