Salisbury, Sept. 25—By a clever exchange of prisoners Sheriff Krider has at his jail Frank Cowan, negro, who shot his wife to death Wednesday night. When the sheriff got to the scene of the shooting yesterday he found the slayer had been carried away by his father, so the officer brought the old man to jail, telling the other relatives that if frank was brought to jail by any of them he would turn the old man loose. Today relatives of the wanted negro brought him up and the old man was liberated.
