The State decided to try her first for shooting Mrs. Florence Godbee, because It believes that it ha* a stronger case than the charge against her for the murder of Judge Walter S. Godbee, her former husband. The trial proceeded rapidly, Judge Hammond overruling a motion for a continuance and later a demurrer to the indictment Jury Obtained Easily. The ease with which a jury was obtained was a great surprise, as It bad been predicted that several days would be required to get twelve men. Millen was wrought Into a high pitch of excitement to-day when the time arrived for the trial of Mtb. Godbee. The woman, who has remained si lent in the county jail since the day she startled the community by ahoot- ing down Judge Godbee and hts wife in the Millen postofflee, has won tile sympathy of many of the townspeo ple. That she was the victim of insult after insult heaped upon her by the man who once was her husband and that she was deprived of her inheri tance by him before tlfeir separation is the story that Is on every lip. Tell of Slurring Remark. This is the story, the details and Iragi pending of which will be told the j by the skilled lawyers whom Mrs. Edna Godbee has engaged to conduct the fight for her 'ife. That the judge accosted her in the post- office the day of the tragedy or that he made a slurring remark in refer ence to her in her hearing is the sen sational testimony that is promised by the defense. It will be the contention that this was the final act of persecution by Judge Godbee that goaded his form er wife into a fury and led her to empty the revolver she was carrying into his body and that of the pretty woman at his side w’ho had taken her place in the judge's affection. Combating the claim of the de fense that the shooting of the young Mrs. Godbee was not intentional and was in the nature of an incident to the main purpose of the distracted woman—the slaying of‘Judge Godbee the state was prepared to intro- Continued on Page 5, Column 1. 100 - 16 2 000 010 21X - 4 8 1 Scott and Schalk; Shawkey.

Y, Sept. 11.— James Farley, the famous strike breaker, died at his home here to day of tuberculosis. He was 40 year.s old, and during the latter years of his life, when he had to give up his strenuous duties breaking strikes, he ^levoted himteif to horse racing Prison Board by Two to One Urges Liberation of Physician Held in Jail as Slayer. A recommendation for a full par don for Dr. W. J. McNaughton, con victed of the murder of Fred Flan ders. was sent to Governor J. M. Sla ton Thursday by the Georgia Prison Commission. The vote was 2 to 1 for a full par don, Chairman Davison and Commis sioner Rainey voting for the pardon and Commissioner Patterson holding out for commutation to life imprison ment. The majority ruling, the rec ommendation went to the Governor a? a full pardon. Commissioners Davison and Rainey in recommending a full pardon charged that a careful examination of the evidence at the trial shows the case to be a weak one, the motive given being surrounded by unnatural and untrue evidence. State Sharply Criticised. The Commissioners also state that the prosecution refused to allow the defendant to have present at the chemical analysis of the stomach and organs of the deceased a known chemist of ability, that he might see that no mistake was made. The action of the State in nolle pressing the case against Mrs. Flan ders, who was Jointly Indicted with McNaughton, also is sharply criticised by the two Commissioners. “By this order.” they stij, “this commission was deprived of the ben efit of the result of a jury trial of the case and it was done by the prosecu tion on their own motion and must have been with full knowledge of what the Governor’s reprieve meant and what this commission desired when they requested the reprieve. Am a result, when the case was again presented to the commission a month ago they were met with a state of affairs in which one conspirator had been set free—the conspiracy thus done away—and an effort being made to hang the other conspirator on e theory of conspiracy which by this act was virtually admitted not to exist ” Another feature of the long tight for the physician’s life that weighed most heavily with these two Commis sioners was the newly-produced evi dence before the Prison Commission that Flanders had been sick for a period before his mysterious death and that he had been in t,he habit of taking medicine which he had de clared pome day would kill him. Believa Doctor Innocent. In closing, the majority members of the commission say they are con vinced that the defendant is Inno cent, or at least there is such a douot and such a failure to exclude even reasonable hypothesis save that ut the guilt of the accused as to make it a duty to recommend a pardon. Judge Patterson gave^four reasons for his recommendation for commu tation to life imprisonment. The ev idence, in the first place, he states is wholly circumstantial. Til the second place, the new evidence produced be fore the commission, he declares, au thorizes a commutation of the sen tence. Thirdly, the failure to prose cute Mrs. Flanders, he says, makes the imposition of the death penalty unwarranted, arid, fourthly, the new evidence from Thomasville is merely cumulative and Is what was before the courts on the extraordinary mo tion for a new trial. Case Fought Stubbornly. The case against Dr. McNaughton has been one of the moat stubbornly contested legal battles in Georgia criminal annals, interest never flag ging from the time the physician was arrested in June. 1910.

Fifty thousand dollars was con signed from the Chase National Bank of New Tork to the Savannah Bank and Trust Company. A consignment of $21,000 more was bound to th* Brunswick and Valdosta banks'. Other smaller sums are said to be missing. The detectives believe that It was an "Inside job" and that some of the express company's employees are In volved In the big robbery. The only clew they have is a finger print on one of the envelopes from which the money was extracted. CUrke Will Be Quizzed. A rigid examination of every clerk In the employ of the company who has the handling of the consignments of the money will be made by De tective Scott and the other 'opera tives who have been sent him from other Pinkerton offices. The first move is expected to be an inspection of the finger prints of even 7 person who could have had anything to do with the robbery. It Is on this slim clew that the au thorities are working now. So far as i* known, they have no ona under suspicion. If the finger-print clew fails to implicate any of the em ployees. the detectives will be forced to attack the baffling mystery from another direction. They admit that It is the most mysterious disappearance of money with which they have had to deal In years It Is also the great est robbery In the history of the Southern Express. Scott will be assisted by detectives from the large Eastern offices The police officials in every city In the South and East have been notified to be on the watch for any clew. Treasure Trunk Rifled. The robbery came to light when the trunk supposed to contain the *75,000 was opened In Savannah and found to be empty. Superintendent Hockaday, in Atlanta, immediately was wired of the big robbery, and, obtaining the services of Harry Scott he boarded a train for Savannah. Of ficials of the company admitted the robbery as soon as they were ques tioned. but declared they wer at a lose to hit upon any reasonable theory. The money was placed in a sealed trunk at Jersey City Monday night on the Atlantic Coast Line’s train No. S3. It was receipted for. The trunk was not openeu, nor did it leave the car except at Washington, when the Adams Express Company transferred it to the Southern. It reached Savannah at 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon. The robbery was discovered immediately. It was impossible to secure the name of the me-senger, but It Is understood that someone higher up Is suspected, on account of it having been practically Impossible for the messenger to have secured the money and replaced the seals. No evidence that the trunk had been tampered with was found on the outside, butontbe inside one or two envelopes were found tom open, and on one of them was the finger print that the officials expect to prove of value, LAREDO, TEX., Sept. 11 *—In a fight to-day near Cari- zo Springs, Tex., between a Sheriff's posse and fifteen Mexicans who were smuggling ammunition over the bor der, one smuggler was killed and Deputy Sheriffs Buck and Orltz were captured and carried off by the Mexicans. j?
