TWO CONVICTED OF MURDER.
Some Horrible Details Depicted by
Ono Witness.

Florence, June 15.-The jury in
the case Of Harry McInotsh and John
Williams, charged with the murder
of little Andrew Jackson, brought in
verdict Of guilty at 11.30 o'clock
to-day. The court room was filled
with people, number of whom were
ladies who had sat throughout the
day listening to the case. The argu-
ments were completed at 10 o'clock,
the judge charged them at 1890, and
the jury retired Immediately, being
in the room about forty minutes.
There was a slight demonstration
when the jury handed up their YER

The usual motion for new trial was
made
A number Of witnesses were exam
ined, but perhaps the evidence most
damaging to the defendants was the
following statement Of Freddie Nc
Intosh while in Jail:
! was standing on Evans street
near Mr.. Jtfdan's, where John and
Harry pass ID by in the hack, driving
the gray mare, and saw little An
drew ia kson jump up behind the
hack. | saw Harry take him by the
arm and get him in the hack. Harry
told John to drive fast, and they went
on back to the stable. I went on
back home and was standing at the
wood pile and | saw Harry hold An
drew and John hit him two hard
licks with piece Of iron, once on
the back and once on the side Of the
head, and Andrew hollered, ooh,
Lord, am dead and cant SEQ my
mamma any more; l would have
been home If those boys had not held
me on that hack and brought me
here This was under tho hack
shed. William Foxworth was there,
too, and saw everything. He knows
more than | do about 1t, for he was
back there with them.
When John hit he fell to the
ground and Harry jumped on him
and choked him; they then put him
In the long stable. This was be-
tween Z and s o'clock. He stayed
there until the boys came back from
the depot that night, then John and
Harry brought him in the house and
put him in the colset, near the tele-
phone, and covered him up. They
kept him In the closet until the next
night about 10 O'Clock. John and
Harry took him out of the closet and
put him in the hack; they were driv-
ing big john" and carried him off.
The next morning ] heard them talk
ing together at the depot, and they
said they had Andrew in safe place;
that he would soon rot in that car
box. When they took him ont Of the
house he was wrapped up in two or
three Of my mothers old skirts
one black and one yellow. They said
they was going off from here. told
them If they did I would tell Mr..
Burch. They said I had better not
tell Mr.. Burch nothing. On the
night of the killing my mother was
cooking supper when the boys car
ried him in the house and my sister,
Lucille, was sick in bed, and my fa-
ther was in Wilmington, n. c., on
his run. He did not come back un-
til the next night. do not think my
father and mother knowed anything
about IT, and William did not help
John and Harry, but he was there
and saw 1t all.

Amidst the clamor Of yells from RI
val factions, and the friendly shouts
or State delegations, the fifteenth
Republican National Convention be-
gan it's history-making course at
noon. There was none Of the seri-
GUS disorder that had been feared,
~ Few minutes after the gavcl had
crashed its summons to the dele
gates, quiet had been obtained, and
Chaplain Callaghan repeated his
prayer.
Immediately after this expression OF
reverence, however, develop
came like shots from a rapid fire gun.
First Big Victory.
Taft men drew first bood in the
convention when Chairman Rosewa-
ter, after listening to arguments Of
the Roosevelt and Taft forces, ruled
out or order the demand OF tho
Roosevelt men that the temporary
roll be amended. BY the proposed
amendment, contesting Roosevelt
delegates that were under contest
would have been substituted for
Taft delegates admitted by the ma
tlonal committee. The action Of
chairman RoseWater prevented a
vote by the convention on the Roose-
welt proposition.
Root Elected.
IN the contest for temporary chair
man OF the convention the suIabDle
for supremacy was heated and close
between the two contestants, Elihu
Root and McGovcrn, OF Wisconsin.
The final vote stood Root 55S, Nc
Govern 502. Mr.. Root assumed the
duties Of his Office amid cheers from
some and loud cries Of "IIaw! haw!
haw!' and Receiver of stolen
goods!' from his opponents. Seve-
raj rows were niDped in the bud by
squads of policemen fastened to va
ri0uS parts Of the hall.
