CASE IS NOW or
TO IS. HIRSCH
IF SHE WILL AGREE NOT TO SUE
FOR DAMAGES, IT IS PROBABLE
THAT THE PROSECUTION WILL
BE DROPPED.
ATLANTA, Ga„ March 2.—Whether
Mrs. H. H. Hirsch shall be tried on
the indictment charging her with at
tempting to extort $500,000 from May
o' Asa G. Candler on a blackmail
threat, depends almost entirely upon
herself. The prosecution is willing
to drop the charge and let her go, pro
v;ded—
It is learned that neither Mrs.
Hirsch nor J. W. Cook, who has been
convicted and given twelve months
and a fine of SI,OOO, had any money
to employ the lawyers who defended
them, so they made an arrangement
for the lawyers to bring suit against
Mayor Candler for defamation of
character and false arrest, after they
had been tried on the blackmail
charge. It was believed that if the
lawyers could secure an acquittal for
them, they would have leg on which
to stand their suit for damages.
Os course this part of the plan is
broken up so far as Cook is concerned,
for he was not falsely arrested, now
that he has been convicted, and so
far as defaming his character is con
cerned, he did that himself by un
burdening to Forrest Adair the story
of hi s previous record as a bad actor
with the women, a heavy drinker, a
gambler and all-round sport.
But if the prosecution should nolle
prosse the case against Mrs. Hirsch
and let her go free without a trial,
she might hav c some advantage in
a damage suit for false arrest and
defamation of character. Hence the
prosecution i s in the attitude of be
ing forced t© go ahead with the trial
to defend itself—unless Mrs. Hirsch is
willing to drop the case.
