Braday and Beck Hook Up in
Pitchers’ Duel; Perry’s Hit
Scores Run.
By Percy H. Whiting.
PONCE DE LEON BALL PARK,
April 29.—The Vols trimmed the Crack
ers here this afternoon in the final
game of their series by a score of
2 to 0.
Brady and Beck were the rival twirl-
ers and both showed elegant form.
Perry’s double in the opening inning
scoring Goalby after two were out gave
the visitors the first score of the game.
In several of the innings both teams
went out in one-two-three order. Bill
Smith sent Kernan to left field in place
of Bailey, while Williams was again at
short.
As Mobile trimmed Memphis this aft
ernoon the Gulls are now in first place,
while Atlanta drops to second.

“Deed Lies Between the Negro Night
Watchman of Factory and Man
ager,” Says Head of Detectives.
Frank Placed In Cell at Station.
Late this afternoon Chief of Detectives Lan-
ford made this important statement to a Geor
gian reporter: “We have the strangler. In my
opinion the crime lies between two men, the ne
gro watchman, Newt Lee, and Frank. We have
eliminated John Gantt and Arthur Mullinax.”
It was said that Frank was being put
through the “third degree” this afternoon.
The negro also was severely “swetaed.”
Chief of Detectives Lanford told The Georgian to-night that
the evidence points to one of two men as the strangler who gar-,
roted and killed Mary Phagan.
Leo M. Frank, the young superintendent, and Newt Lee, the
negro night watchman at the National Pencil Company factory,
are the men he names.
“On eof these men is guilty,’’ declared Lanford.
‘ Which one it is we will know within a few hours. The so
lution of the great strangling mystery is very near.
“We have eliminated Mullinax, Gantt and Bailey from sus
picion.’’
The detectives are practit ally certain that Mary Phagan never
left the pencil factory after she got her pay envelope from Frank
Saturday noon.
Wtih hours oi ceaseless investigation and inquiry they have
been utterly unable to trace her away from the factory after she
entered there Saturday noon.
Every known acquaintance that she had has been interviewed.
None of them saw saw her on the street Saturday night, although,
she said she was going to see the Memorial Day parade.
Bloody Shirt in Negro's Home
A blood-stained shirt, which the detectives say they found at
the home of Lee, was shown to the negro this afternoon in an ef
fort to break him down.
The negro admitted the shirt was his, but declared that he had
not seen it before for two years.
Lee was under a grueling fire of questions all day. Shortly
before Superintendent Frank was brought to the station Detective
Black came from the home of Lee. He carred a package under his
arm. He would not divulge its contents, but very soon after it was
obtained Frank was under arrest and Lee was confronted with the
garment.
There was an unconfirmed rumor that Lee had broken down
and given most important information to the police.
Detective Black anti Harry Scott, Pinkerton man, left police
headquarter* at 2>10 for West End to arrest a negro woman friend
of the blaek prisoner. The net was evidently being tightened
about Newt Lee, the night watchman.
Superintendent Leo M. Frank, head officer of the National
Pencil Company, was taken from the factory shortly before noon
by Detective Black ami Ilarry Scott, of the Pinkertons.
The police say that Frank is not under arrest, that he was put
under police guard for his own personal safety, and that there are
no charges against, him.
Why, then, did the police act?
There must be some reason other than the man's personal
safety, tinder consderfition. Frank lias not yet figured as of im
portance in the (rase.
Attorney Barred, Then Admitted
Luther Z. Rosser, attorm \ for Frank, endeavored to see Ids
client. .The police refused to let him do so.
Why ?
Lawyer Rosser retired hastily declaring he would apply to
Judge Bell lor a writ of habeas corpus for his client, and would
thus take him out of the control of the police.
Later, when Rosser's determination to tight for Frank be
came known. Chief Beavers admitted that the exclusion of Rosser
“was a mistake, that tlie police orders had been lakett too liter
ally. and Rosser was then permitted to talk to ids client. Rosser
abandoned bis plan to sue out a writ of habeas corpus.
The police “explanation"’ only added mystery to mystery,
and really explained nothing.
Win'll Rosser reached the police stalibu be was told that
