TRIAL OF COSNELL
WELL UNDER Way
Taking of Testimony Begins j.: >;recn-
vile.
JURY SOON SECURED
State Introduces Three Witnesses Dur-
ing First Day-Eye Wit
ness on Stand.

Grecnville, May 11.-Charged with
the murder of Sheriff Hendrix Rector
on July 4, 1919, Jake Gosnell, federal
revenue agent, was placed on trial this
morning IN the court of general ses-
sion which convened yesterday. The
jury was secured by noon, and the af-
tcrnoon session Of the court was de-
voted to the beginning of state testi-
mony. 1t is generally expected that
the case will last until the latter part
of the week.
The following jury was selected in
the case: G. B. Martin, foreman; P. w.
Shockley, Herman McManaway, E. E..
Gary, A. H. Wells, Frances j. Beatty,
Sloan Black, T. D. Davis, J. M. Hughes
Robert Bailey Charles Manly, Lafay-
cite Talley
The state at the outset introduced
as witnesses w. B. Kellar, friend of
Gosnell and eye witness Of the killing
and DR.. w. G. Black, who performed
two autopsies upon Rector's body.
Dr. Black testified that in his opin-
ion, the bullet which entered Rector's
body two and one-half inches poster
er, to the rear of the auxiliary line be-
tween the sixth and seventh ribs was
the first shot fired by Gosnel. The state
is endeavoring to prove that the bullet
was fired when Rector had his back
partially turned toward Gosnell.
Kellar related simply the details of
the tragedy, which occurred in Bris-
Goes garage on court street. His testi-
mony was virtually the same as that
given by him at the inquest. He as
serted that while Gosncll's car was be-
ing repaired, Rector walked in and
passing Gosnell, greeted him.
Gosnell di dnot return the greeting.
Rector told him he did not care
whether he spoke or not. Gosnell re-
piled that he did not care to have any
words with Rector, and Rector, then,
according to the witness cursed Cos
nell, making an unmentionable rehec-
tion upon Gosnell's mother. Gosnell

were members of small group of men
who were celebrating the holiday by
drinking blockade beverages in the
garage office on the morning of the
killing. The sheriff, he said, stepped
out of the office door into the main
building where he ran upon Gosnel1.
He said Rector had taken one drink

COMMITTEES SAYS
PALMER GETS VOTE

Atlanta, May 11.-Resolutions de-
claring that Attorney General Palmer
won plurality of delegates to the
Democratic state convention in the
recent Georgia presidential primary
and that under the rules of the pri-
mary he is entitled to the Georgia
delegates to the national convention
were adopted here today by the sub
committee of the state Democratic
executive committee which authorized
the primary.
The resolutions were signed by all
members of the subcommittee, it was
announced except j. j. Flynt chairman
who stated the subcommittee should
declare the result Of the primary hut
should not go further than show on
the face Of the returns which candi-
date received a plurality of the votes
III the state convention which meets
here May 8 to elect delegates to San
Francisco.
Is. NJ. Blackburn speaking for Thos.
r. Watson of Thomson, Ga. insisted
that the subcommittee was making it
self liable to contempt Of court in its
action as result Of a restraining or
der obtained yesterday by Mr.. Watson
Seceral members of the committee re-
piled that the courts order did not
prohibit the action.
Mr. Watson, who ran second in the
primary, and United States Senator
llokc Smith who ran third declined to
present evidence to the subcommittee
in several primary contests they had
'ilcd These contests are expected to
go before the state convention.
The resolutions adopted by the sub
committee announced that Palmer
won 55 counties with l48 delegates in
the state convention. Watson Sc with
1872 delegates, and Smith 13, with 10A
delegates.
Taking the stand that a plurality
can not control the state convention
despite the primary rules, made by the
subcommittee, supporters Of Watson
and Smith have predicted a lively con-
test in the convention itself. Prior to
that date the committee is due to ap-
pear on May II to answer to the re-
strainng order issued yesterday.
