WHERE DID KILLING
OF
Participants Too Busy to No
tice .What County Train
Was in Just Then.
Lawrence J. Logan, a Pullman por
ter, Is dead, and L. Jamison, a negro
cook, has a painful wound In the wrist
ns the result of a shooting affray lata
Sunday afternoon In a Pullman car on
the Atlanta and West Point railroad,
tho shots being flred by Conductor H.
L. Roberson. 35 years of age. of San
Antonio, Texaa. The tragedy occurred
on a troop train, taking aoldlera from
Fort Sam Houston to Fort Myer, near
Washington.
Conductor Roberson was arrested by
Policeman Andrews i when the train
pulled Into the Terminal station, but
what disposition will be mads of the
case Is a matter of speculation, ae the
question of jurisdiction had not tAen
determined up to Monday afternoon.
The shooting took place as the train
was speeding along at a lively clip sev
era! miles out of Atlanta and It la pos
sible, It Is said, that the train may have
been In Campbell county at the time.
If this waa the case, then the Campbell
county authorities will have to handle
the trial of the conductor.
Coroner Donehoo la Investigating the
tragedy Monday and la Inclined to the
belief that It occurred In Campbell
county and that he has no Jurisdiction.
Reoorder Broyles has no Jurisdiction, as
the tragedy occurred outside of the
city, and if the coroner determines to
hold no Inquest, then the proceedings
will have to be transferred to Camp
bell county.
In the meantime. Conductor Robereon
occupies a cell in the police station
awaiting developments.
According to the conductor, the
shooting was done in self-defense. He
says he had two or three times ordered
the porter, Logan, to clean the Pull
man, and that the latter had stubbornly
refused. Finally, he eays, the negro at.
tacked him with a stick, and It was
then that he shot Jamlion. tho cook,
the conductor says, waa Just behind
Logan and appeared as tho ready to aid
In the attack. The bullet passed .thru
the body of the porter and struck Jami
son in the wrist.
Conductor Roberson telegraphed
ahead for an ambulance to meet tho
train. Logan died In Grady hospital
about midnight.
All of the witnesses to the shooting
went on thru to Washington, tbs state
ment of the conductor being the only
evidence obtainable. It la expected
that aome disposition will be made of
the case during the afternoon.
