In the dim, flickering light of Ihe watchman's lantern, the tragedy was revealed in all its ghastliness. The girlish form lay amid the trash and sweepings of the base ment with bruised and bloody face upturned, in a pool of blood, and with the spotless and freshly-laundered dress of but a few hours before dyed crimson. The disheveled hair was blood-soaked from the great gaping wounds on the head. All about was the evidence of a teriffie struggle. The dilapi dated condition of the dead girl's clothing and the signs of con fusion on the dirty basement floor told the iragic story ot the girl s battle for life. Fought Slayer Till She Swooned She had fought her hruta) murderer until the last—until her Strength had given out and she had swooned into death. The body lay at a point about 75 feet from an elevator shaft. Midway between the body and the shaft, on a pile of trash, was iound one of the girl 's shoes—the one from her left foot—-and her hat. So ferocious was the slayer that lie had torn the shoe and hat from the little form as the girl struggled vainly to save herself from his deadly blows. About the girl s neck was tightly drawn a strong piece of twine. A strip of (doth, torn from her underclothing, was ^Iso fastened about the neck. Not satisfied with the blows he had dealt on the head—one blow on the bnck of the head being so terrific as to discolor one of the girl’s eyes—the slayer had resorted to strangulation to lie sure that the last spark of life had been extin guished. A big twine had been drawn so tightly I hat it was im bedded in the tender flesh, leaving the throat and neck discolored and lacerated. Strange Notes Increase Mystery A few inches from the body were found two remarkably strange notes. These notes, incoherent and almost illegible, only serve to increase the mystery. Detectives declared there was no doubt but that these notes were written by the murderer and 'were a feeble and tragically grotesque effort at a, ruse. They purport to have been written by the girl, and the wording would seem to indicate that she had written them after she was in the throes of death. “A tall, black negro did tins," is the substance of the two notes. The notes are in 1 he hands of detectives, who believe they ma.\ prove to be valuable clews. The police were uolifled by the janitor of his ghastly find, and several officers were quickly on the scene, immediately starting a thorough investigation. After finding that all of the doors and windows to tile build ing were seeiireh fastened, the police look Newt Lee into custody on suspicion, believing that lie could throw light on the tragedy. Lee carried the keys to the building, hut protested that he had admitted no one to the building, and that lie had no idea that anyone had been inside until he found tin* body. Detectives arc certain that the negro can explain the mystery of how the girt found her way into the building, even if In* did not actually commit the murder.

Kam- per’a store, ami whose home is at 82 Davis Street, was one of the first to give the detectives «a hopeful clue to the solution of the hideous mys tery.

When she was just be ginning to think of dolls with never a thought of dreary factories and the He \yas six feet tall or over. His ha!j was black and curly and his face, not unattractive, was of dark complexion. He wore a blue suit and tan shoes and a straw hat. He was of slender build and ap peared to be about twenty-five yearr old. At 9 o’clock yesterday morning Sentell was or a street car when he heard that a girl named Mary Phagar. had been fount] murdered. He hur ried to her home and found his fear tragedies of life, he used to see her f were verified. With a boy friend of playing in the streets of East Point the victim’s sister he hastened to when her folks lived there. She was Chief Lanford’a office and on his clue a pleasant, cheerful little; girl then and her later •years—tragically brief —had not changed her. Her light blue eyes laughed at the world in those days with all the roguish..less a Georgia country girl’s can, and the cares and worries that came when she had to make her own pitiful liv ing had not obliterated their smile. It was 30 minutes after midnight, when Sentell, going home from his work at Hamper's saw Mary Pha- gan coming down Forsyth Street near Hunter. Outside of the stragglers about the cheap hotels in that district, there were few on the streets at that time. The intermittent lights of cheap fruit and soda w r ater stands, the flickering flame of a whistling peanut roaster here and there, added enough light to the dull glow of the city lamps to make pedestrians easily distinguish able. Mary Phagan, at that hour of the night, was a conspicuous figure. the detective department got busy at once. It is known that Mary Phagan came to the city a few minutes after noon on Saturday and left an English Avenue car at tile corner of Broad and Hunter Streets. Motorman W. M. Matthews knew the girl from hav ing had her as a passenger on his caf a number of times and says pos itively that she left his car at the corner of Broad and Hunter Streets and that he saw i.er walking up Hun ter Street in the direction of For syth. Conductor W. T. Hollis was in charge of the car that reached the corner of Marietta and Broad at 12:07 o’clock Saturday afternoon and says that he knew the little girl and that she was a passenger on the trip into the city. He was relieved at the co ner of Marietta and Broad and does not know anything further about the movements of the child, although he says that he is sure that she was still on the car when it left the cor- Incoherent Notes Add to Mystery in Strangling Case Two mysterious note*-—incoher ent, misspelled and unintelligible— were found in the cellar of death. Were they written by the girl as she lay In delirium just before the end came, or Were they written by her slay er to throw the police off the track and turn suspicion towards a negro? Here they are: “He said he wood love me laid down like the night witch did it but that long tall black negro did by his sleb.” “mama that negro hired down here did this'I went.to get water and he pushed me down this hole a long tall negro black that has it woke long lean tall negro I write while play with me.” But Public Hostility to Wall Street and Its Business Is Still Rampant.

On the curb side of the pavement parallel with her, keeping step with her, but exchanging no words, walk ed a tall slender man. Exchanged “Hellos." Sentell looked at him more or less casually but sharply enough to de scribe him later to the detectives. ‘‘Hello, Mary” said Sentell. ‘Hello, Edgar” said Mary. That was all. Sentell kept on his way. The couple, now behind him, were swallowed up in the gloom of Forsyth Street. Another Sees Companion. It was reported to the detectives that Conductor Guy Kennedy of the English Avenue line had admitted having brought a young girl, answer ing the description of the little vic tim into the city on his car about 6:45 o’clock Saturday afternoon, and had later seen her in company with a man on the streets. He is said to have furnished the detectives with a description of the mysterious stran ger but w hen seen by a Georgian re porter declined to make any state ment other than that he had seen Chief Beavers and that the Chief had asked that he not say anything about it to anyone. He admitted, however, that he had seen the man again yes terday afternoon and the man had i told him that he had been out with To Sentell, Mary Phagan looked as another girl Saturday night, if she was tired or angry.

The negro was put through n grilling examination time and again Sunday and last night, but no amount of questioning could induce him to change his "know nothing" statement. To evert question lie replied: "I don't know nothing aboul it." Detectives are sure the negro has not told all lie knows, and ■uill hold him until the mystery is cleared.

April 28.— A youth eighteen years* old, and a nineteen-year-old girl were the prin cipal characters' in a shocking love tragedy enacted here.

She was garbed in a one-piece pongee silk dress of lavender, simply made, and caught at the bodice and trimmed at the .‘ .eeves with cheap lace. The dress fell barely below th* knees. The stockings were black and a black gun metal pump was on the right foot. The other pump was found a few feet away on a pile of trash. A plain blue straw hat, with the hand or trimming missing, was found near the elevator shaft. Two turquoise-blue silken ribbon bows were fastened on each side of the wavy red braid of hair.

FORBES. The New York Stock Exchange governors are manifesting unprece dented vigilance. They have don© more real housecleaning than the public realize. The suspension last week of two members is significant of the new order. The Exchange also probed a complaint against an im portant banking house, but did not find that the facts warranted repri sals. Several Hundred Members Nomadic Tribe Are in Atlanta for Ceremony. of The Hearst papers have vigorously advocated Stock Exchange reform. They have also insisted again and again upon a fuller measure of pub licity. But the managers of the Stock Exchange have no control whatever over non-members. This point is too often forgotten. Bound by the tie of grief in death, several hundred men, women and children made up an odd procession to Oakland Cemetery this morning. They were members of the tribe of nomad Irish horse traders, known every where as the Clan O’Hara, and they were burying their dead who had died in the last year. The tribe has been in Atlanta sev eral weeks, waiting for the day of the funerals. They came here from the North, and from the W#s»t, traveling over the country In big wagon cabins. Atlanta is their burial ground, and they come each year for the rites. The tribe members followed seven coffins to the cemetery to-day, tiny white coffins of children, larger white coffins In which lay the bodies of young girls, and one large black cas ket, within which was the body of one of the grandmothers of the tribe. All the dead were women. Four are young children, two are mature wom en. and one is a girl-woman. year- old Mrs. Mamie Nelson, who in years youthful was a wife and mother. Her body has been in Atlanta since last T.. .. .. 1.1m,. a .-1 . . . . , r K'(ri(l I *1' lip The Stock Exchange cannot make men honest. Governments have boon trying to do that for centuries, but human nature has remained human nature. The best the Exchange can do is to watch closely the doings of its members and immediately pounce upon wrong-doers. That more is be ing done in this direction than ever before no one familiar with Wall Street will deny. That there is room for further improvement is also ad mitted. Public hostility to Wall Street is still rampant. Several rec©nt inci dents have not tended to allay it. Numbers of newer industrial stocks have been handled disgracefully by insiders. Outsiders have lost heav ily. Whether the Exchange authori ties—or the Federal authorities— can do anything to stop such fllim- fiamming is an open question. NEW YORK, April 28—Lack of uniformity in the weight of the carat for different countries has induced American dealers in diamonds and other precious stones to adopt a uni form decimal carat weighing exactly one-fifth of a gram, or 200 milligrams. The new weight will be used by American jewelers beginning July 1. France. Germany, Austria. Italy, Hpain and Japan now use the inter national carat. England has not yet legalized it. The new weight reduces the size of a carat by 2 1-2 to 3 per cent. Mullinax Blundered In Statement, Say Police placed under arrest on suspicion.

The bodies of the others have been here less than that time, in the chapel of Greenberg & Bond, to whom the no mads always intrust the details of their tribal burial. Father Kennedy, in the Church of the Immaculate Conception, conduct ed the services this morning. From the church the tribe made its way to Oakland Cemetery, where the cere mony was concluded at the lot which the tribe owns. Wagons Bear Mourners’. The funeral procession was unique. Behind the somber line of hearses it came, the free wanderers, riding in carriages and wagons that have known the road. Sturdy and weather beaten, the vehicles were typical of the people they bore. A number, of the tribe rode in unwonted automo biles. Months that have elapsed since the death of most of those who were buried to-day have not served to les sen the grief of the tribe, it seemed to-day. In the long line of carriages were many women who crooned and wept. Very young children were frightened and quiet, older children frankly crying. Here and there a man, to whom probably one of the seven wag Very near and dear, was sobbing loudly; most of the men. though, rode with faces set and stern. No Expense Spared. Tho tribe, reputed to be ‘wealthy, spares no expense in the burial of Its dead. The caskets were elaborate and costly, he hearses were luxuriantly fitted, and every other appointment of the ceremony was in keeping. The tribe members probably will begin to leave Atlanta immediately, now that the ceremony that brought them to this city is over. Next year they will see each other here again, at the last of April, when the same solemn occasion will come, and the same tie of death will be revealed. It is the one tie among the member-’, and it keeps them close together in heart. The dead buried to-day were: Mrs. Mamie Nelson, age 19. who died in Montgomery.

A correspondent has seen a lengthy communication which is illustrative of how a good many people feel to ward Wall Street. He berates me for not scolding Wall Street enough, for not “going for’' Albany politicians and for once in a while diecussing the better side of human nature. He refers to the manipulation of certain newer shares on the Stock Exchange, and then adds: “This dirty finance is, in my judg ment by far the most important question before the American people to-day. It seems to pervade all classes of bankers, promoters and corporation officials. Every piece of news is “discounted’' on the Stook Exchange, which is only another way of saying that the insiders have played their official knowledge against the stockholders and the public. Juggling of figures for the benefit of officials, speculating in the stocks of their companies, is so com mon as to be almost the rule; and Wall Street smiles indulgently, a6 who should say, “Yes; it’s crooked but it’s part of the game." “The Stock Exchange appears help less. It does not dare to discipline any of the “big men,” because it is absolutely dependent on the oo-opera- tion of the banking houses and direct ors of the principal corporations for its existence. “A few years ago. when Mr. Harri- man returned from abroad to die, the head of one of our largest banking houses went to see him the day be fore his death, and was then reported to have given cut an interview' in which he said, ‘Mr. Harriman is prac tically a well man.’ This enabled a rally in Union Pacific to about 211: but not so many months later, after the insiders had unloaded, the stock was down some 60 points. Did the Stock Exchange ever take any notice of this? No: it didn’t dare. This same banker to-day holds up his head and takes a prominent part in civic and charitable movements among men who presumably are honest and honorable. Meantime, are we un charitable in assuming that the bank ing house of which he is head, sold its Union Pacific above 200, where it has never been since? “While the standard of morality in Wall Street is so low, it is useless to hope for improvement from within. This financial clique has shown itself impervious to any sentiment of de cency. and utterly opposed to any ef fort to destroy its system of graft. » Incorporation of the Stock Exchange, periodical reports of earnings, finan cial conditions, etc., of concerns whose securities are listed, are steps toward reform of conditions. “But the real vital issue is plain honesty; reforming conditions, aft©" all, only reforming the machinery.
