Atlanta, Gu„ May 15.—While not definitely determined, it seems more than probable that the prison commis sion will not hear the Rawlings ap peal at the meeting tomorrow morn ing. Since the Inst respite granted by Governor Terrell does not expire until June S, Attorney John R. Cooper, rep resenting the Rawlingses, wants all the time possible to make his petition and plea for clemency as strong as he is able. It is therefore believed that the case will not be heard until early In June. ! " “ ■ ■■ ■ n i-/. ,< 14 "" r . , . , ........... i ... ^ 'the Bacon Equipment Co.
