The difference is the case. Herr is used in the nominative case. Herrn in the dative and accusative.

That's correct thanks Byron.
Examples:
"Herr" for Akkusativ: 'Wen ladest du ein?'
'Ich lade den Herrn Meier ein.'
"Herr" for Dativ. 'Wem kaufe ich Kaffee?'
'Dem Herrn Meier.'
"Herr" for Nominativ.
'Wer trinkt gern Kaffee?' 'Herr Meier trinkt gern Kaffee.'
