Associated Music Houses Aty. Cooper Says Hanging of R&wlings Boys will Be Nothing less Each One is Allowed'His Freedom Under $200 Bond. Much Evidence Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 16.—The argu ment In the Rawlings case 'contin ued today, before the Supreme Court. Attorney Cooper, deleting the four men convicted of murder, declared In a very dramatic way that If the sen tence of death was carried out on Milton and Jesse, the two boys who are to die tor the murder of the Carter children, the deed will amount to nothing less than a legal lynch ing. Mr. Cooper has ceased to light for the life of old man Rawlings since he made his confession. The con fession of the old man Is regarded as being true so far as It goes, but It leaves so many things about the evlhence unexplained that It does not materially alter the status offsets In the opinion of most people. It Is altogether possible however, that the Supreme Court may be Induced to grant a new trial In the case of the two boys by the confession of their father. It Is supposed that old man Raw lings was Induced by bis wife to say he paid Alf More to kill old man Car ter, but that his two sons had noth ing whatever to do with the crime. Rawlings declares that he express ly cautioned the negro to be careful not to harm the children. Rawlings says that he would gladly give his life to free his two boys and Tim McDonald, but that he thinks his life ought to be spared. He wept bitterly while making the confession and asked If It were not nil true that be might die In his chair. He declares that Alf Moore told him that he would not have killed the two children If the boy had not come out In the yard\with a gun In his handand that he was afraid not to make way with both of them, or run the risk of being killed him self. , The grand Jury returned true bills yesterday against eight merchants for selling liquor. The true bills were followed Immediately by war rant, upon which the men indicted were arrested at once. By order of Judge Mitchell of the Superior Court the bond In each case was fixed at $200. The men against whom the true bills wore found are: P. Sampson, Nick Sampson, George Phillips, John Kllpogen, Arthur Epttmo, George Sampson. All secured bond without difficulty. Hammond Daniels, col- and J. T. Vann are security for P. Sampson, W. Fein berg for Phllllph, H. Felnberg tor Nick and George Sampson, Joseph Goldberg for Eptt- moro, and Klpogen, S. Sampson for Mitch Sampson and W. Felnberg for Leonidas. The officers claim to have-strong evidence against all the men and as many as 16 witnesses against some. Quitman, On., Oct. IT.—Another "blind tiger” has been captured here and thirteen barrels ,of an intoxicat ing mixture known aa "buck" wore confiscated. Several stores were wife. The buck vat at their home. They are well-to-do negroes and are much above the average negro in every respect. The prohibitionists are responsible for all of the raids and arrests and are making a determined effort to rid the town of blind tigeys. They have been working up these eases for six months and it is said a regu lar defective has -been employed which Is very probable as nobody seemed to know anything was being done and the raids came as a surprise Doss is Inspector, Hogs in Danger—A.
