John Stevenson was wearing a green shirt. The suspect who was carrying a green umbrella was wearing a green shirt. Therefore, John Stevenson was carrying a green umbrella. The murderer was carrying a yellow umbrella, so John Stevenson is not the murderer.
The suspect who was carrying a white umbrella was wearing red shoes. The suspect who was wearing an orange shirt was wearing red shoes. The suspect who was wearing an orange shirt is not the one who has red hair. Therefore, one suspect was wearing red shoes, was carrying a white umbrella, was wearing an orange shirt, and is not the one who has red hair. But Jim Fox was wearing orange shoes, Jack Alberts has red hair, Tom Martin was wearing a purple shirt, and John Stevenson was carrying a green umbrella. Therefore, the only suspect who could be this suspect is Larry Brown. Since Larry Brown was carrying a white umbrella, he is not the murderer.

Jim Fox was wearing orange shoes, Tom Martin was wearing a purple shirt, John Stevenson was carrying a green umbrella, and Larry Brown was carrying a white umbrella. Therefore, that one suspect is Jack Alberts. Since the murderer was carrying a yellow umbrella and Jack Alberts was carrying a yellow umbrella, he is the murderer.
