Hawkins made the closing speecb ye
day morning, occupying more tbau
hours, and Jud^e Oreeti charged the jury
and tbe court adjourned for dinner. At
8:3) p. m, having been out a IIUlo over
three hour* the jury came into court and
returned a veidict of guilty, fixing
the penalty at death. Hawes' firm-
ness was unshaken. He accepted the
verdict as a man, having expressed him-
self all the while as looking upon his con-
viction in Jefferson County as a foregone
conclusion. The verdict meets with popu-
lar approval and was expected. Hawes
has two chances yet—an appeal to the
Supreme Court on the refusal of Judge
Green to allow him a change of venue anu
an appeal on various exceptions taken to
the rulings of the court during the pro-
gress of the trial. The geneial opinio!
