RENFRO Is Dead of His Wounds And the Charge Against Barthol omew Will Be Changed. The Police Officer Clalma He Shot the Constable In Self Defense, Bat This Is Dented, Wlllard Renfro, the negro Constable of Springfield Township, who was hot late Monday afternoon during a street duel with Officer Ed Bartholomew, of the Wyoming police force, in that village, died laat night of his wounds.

The warrant Issued yesterday by Mayor Charlea W. Hoffman, of Olendala. charging Bartholomew with shooting with Intent to kill will doubtlees be changed to one in which It will be alleged that Bartholomew killed Renfro. In defense Bartholomew will set up that he ahot In aelf-derense. only after the Constable had fired at him.

This plea will doubtless be made, despite the fart that Renfro declared he id not use hla pistol and that only two ehots were fired, both by Bartholomew and both of whlrh took effect. Several prominent cltlxens of Wyoming yesterday visited Mayor Hoffman with a request for clemency, but tha Mayor an nounced that since he had been given Juris diction In the case It would hava to be heard on ita merits. Caae Set For To-Nlg-ht. He set the case on ths Intent-to-kill charge for to-night at 7 o'clock when At torney Acombs, who represents Bartholo mew, refused to waive the preliminary hearing. Bartholomew was at liberty after Mon day at midnight, whan he took room at the Glendale Hotel.

Mayor Hoffman telephoned Mayor Taylor, of Wyoming, and asked what was to be done In the metier. Mayor Taylor, at Hoffman'a request, or dered Marshal Bracker to awear to the warrant. Marshal Meagher, of Glendale. found Bartholomew In the bar at the Glendale Hotel. His bond was fixed at and was Immediately signed by his relatives.

Two widely different atorlea were told yesterday of the shooting, aw Bartholomew stated that he fired only In self-defense. Ha clalma that Renfro fired three of the six shots, but the latter denied that he used 'his gun at all. Patrolman French Whitehead, of Uovkland, corroborates this statement, and says that he Inspected Ken- fro' a gun immediately after the shooting. snd there was nothing about it to show that It had been recently discharged. Six Chambers Emptied.

On the other hand. Marshal Fred Brack er. of Wyoming, stated that the six cham- bera of Bartholomews revolver had ben fired, though they were all loaded when he revolver waa turned over to the police. Bartholomew admitted reloading the gun. but stated that he only reloaded three chambers.

Aa a reault of the shooting two damage suits will be brought by Rcnfro's attorneys should they secure a romictlon. One agnlnst the village of Wyoming and an other against Bartholomew's bondsmen. Bartholomew has been indefinitely sus pended from the police force by Mayor Tayf or aa a reault of the affair. Renfro haa been a Constable In Spring field Township for over lO years, snd has never been In any trouble before. The lxK-kland police took charge of the situa tion In Greenwood last night, and notified Renfro'a friends that any disturbance would result in their Immedlste arrest, and here was no disturbance of any kind laat night.
