SHE WANTS CYRUS HANGED.
Mrs. Gov. Atkinson Pleading with Her Mus-
band Against q Pardon.

ATLANTA Ga, July 5.-Mrs. Gov. Atkinson
Ia e~xerting all her influence with her husband
In order to prevent him from committing the
death sentence Of Tom Cyrus, the negro muir
derer who was to DO executed on July 2, just
one month after tho commission of the crime.
Cyrus several weeks: ago rushed into police
barracks with q smoking revolver, and. saying
that he had murdered his sweetheart, asked to
be imprisoned. He had been engaged to tho
girl, but on account of her firtations with
other negroes he had become insanely jealous.
After one OF the quickest trials in the history Of
law in Georgia, he was sentenced TO DO hanged
on July 2, but an appeal was taken TO the
Supreme Court and execution of sentence
postponed.
Yesterday the fact became public that the
murdered woman, Annie johnson, was Mrs.
Atkinson's maid. and that sho had been a
trusted servant at the executive mansion for
months. Mrs. Atkinson stated to-day that
she had been much attached to the girl and
was convinced that Cyrus should suffer the
full penalty of the law. 1t looks now as II
the Supreme Court would refuse u new trial,
and already personal appeals and petitions for
communication are pouring in on the Governor.
1t is understood that Mrs. Atkinson has been
closeted with her husband all the afternoon
urging him not TO interfere with the course of
the law, and there is every reason to believe
that her pleadinss will carry the day.
