DEFENSE of MRS. GRAVES.
VIII Try to Break Down Testimony
of George Register.


Valdosta, Ga, June 27.-Mrs. Jane
Graves has employed Col. Ebenezer
Wakeley to look after her business at
fairs and the employment of lawyers to
defend her in her trial. 1t is also under
stood that writ of habeas corpus will be
sworn out for her when Judge HanselI
comes over to hold the Superior Court
here next week. with a view to having
her released from jail on bail This win
bring up another trial of her case. and
the defense is expected to show its hand.
1t is believed that the defense with un-
dertake to destroy the testimony of
George Register, who swore that he saw
her do the shooting. An effort viii prob
ably be made to show that he is not re-
sponsible for what he says, and that his
evidence should therefore count for
naught- Mrs Graves told the Morning
News correspondent to-day that Register
wasn't bright.
He never heard prayer or a sermon
in church in his life" she said and is
nothing more than a moral idiot. He
even hasn't mother wit"
Two white men. Nose and Joe Muz-
zlewhite, were at the Graves homestead
when the tragedy occurred, and one of
them had been riding with Mrs. Graves.
she says that Nose acted so suspicious
AFTER the Killing that she believes he had
a hand in il. Both of these men have
skipped out. and the officers are hunting
them in Florida. IL is believed that their
testimony will be worth something in the
trial of the case. and they are wanted as
witnesses if nothing more.
The little boy who has been in jail with
Mrs. Graves was removed yesterday to
his grandfather's, Mr.. NJ. M. Griffis, near
Dupont. GrifIis wanted the child and tele-
phoned Sheriff Passmore TO send the little
fellow to him. The sheriff moved the
child from jail and carried him to Dupont
himself.
The Jail at Madison, Fla, also has a wo-
man accused of numbering her husband.
The tragedy occurred two or three weeks
ago and the woman has been refused bail.
Her name was Mrs. Leitner, and 1t is al
legged that her husband was killed while
riding in a buggy with her. She says
that he and another man got In a fight,
and the other man, whose name is Tindell,
was about to shoot him. Her husband
got out of the buggy and the next she saw
of him was after his death. She Is not ac-
cused of the murder, but of being access
sorry to it. The grand jury will take up
her case at the next session Of court there.
