A Hempstead special of the 29th says:  At noon today officers were notified that W. Cuney (sic: N.A. Cuny"), ex-county clerk of this county, had shot and killed Jerry Henderson, a negro, at Sunnyside, yesterday evening.  The scene of the alleged killing is twenty miles from here and no particulars are obtainable at this writing.
