Declares judy in Famous Murder Trial
Now Ended.
Valdosta, Ga, July 31.-'The jury in
the trial of ]. G. Rawlings brought in
verdict of guilty without recommen,
dation. The prisoner, his wife and
daughters, who had remained by his
side, received the verdict without emo.
tion
The conviction of J. G. Rawlings, the
father of Jesse, Milton and Leonard
Rawlings, whose convictions had pre-.
ceded his, removes the entire male
membership of the family, should the
verdicts of the juries stand.
The three sons and the negro, ALI
Moore, were accused of killing the
young Carter children, and the faith.
er, J, G. Rawlings, was accused and
found guilty of instigating one of the
blacklist crimes that has been recorded
in the history of Georgia.
Four of the convicted men received
no recommendation to mercy, and un.
der the laws of the state, their sen.
tences necessarily must be death on
the gallows.
One Of the Sons, Leonard, will re.
ceive a life sentence in the peniten.
tiary-provided, of course, that sen.
tences are passed upon the men.
Seldom have so many faced the ex.
treme penalty for the same crime, and
interest in the case throughout Geor.
gia and the country has been deen.

element Is intense.

Rome, Ga, July 31-Mrs. Elizabeth
Sanford, the chief figure in the tria
which is to be called Tuesday morn
ing, fed from Rome last night.
Mrs. Sanford left the city in dis
guise. She left on a Southern train
for Chattanooga, due to leave at 1896
O'Clock, but because of an Alabama
connection, did not leave Rome unit
8 o'clock. That Mrs. Sanford was
on this train in disguise when it left
the city cannot be questioned, though
it is not known whether she was
IN the Pullman or in the combination
smoking car in the front of the train.
While all connected in any way with
the case are reticent, it is positively
known that Mrs. Sanford has crossed
the state line and is now beyond the
JURISDICTION of Georgia courts and the
sheriff of Floyd county. Her flight
has caused the widest sensation in
the city, and, crowds are on the street
corners discussing it this morning.
Mrs. Sanford did not purchase a
ticket from Rome. This is positively
known. She did OF ride on a ticket
or any kind of transportation. Cash
was paid on the train.
Files Her Divorce Papers.
Mrs. Elizabeth Sanford's ATTORNEYS
have made public the petition for di.
vorce from her husband, Vincent T.
Sanford, who vii be tried next Tues.
day for killing George Wright, the
Southern railroad ticket agent, with
whom Mr.. Sanford claims that Mrs.
Sanford was unduly intimate.
Mrs. Sanford claims that the peti.
ton for divorce would have been filed
earlier but for the reason that she did
not get her papers prepared in time
for the July term of court. The pc.
tition teens with sensational charges
against Sanford. Mrs. Sanford al.
leges repeated acts of adultery on her
husbands part, charges that his con.
duct has been such as to reduce the
family to want, and also alleges that
on one occasion her husband struck
her.
