By JAMES B. NEVIN. DALLAS, TEXAS, May 12. —Atlanta now claims, as pledg ed, 250 of the 460 voles in the Imperial Council for the 1914 meeting place. Memphis still is alive and the fight has seem ingly narrowed down to the two cities. if Atlanta should lose the committee’s recommen dation the Georgians will carry the fight to the convention floor. Potentate Forrest Adair declares it is all over but the shouting. “Atlanta will be the Shrine Mecca in 1914, un less I am very badly mistaken,’’ he said. The first cheering news received by Atlanta when the delegation arrive! Sunday morning was that the seven teen votes of Texas are “sewed up’’ for Georgia. Then followed Okla homa. New York. Pennsylvania, Ore gon. British Columbia and Honolulu to the Georgia standard. Memphis, however, still is a men ace to Atlanta's chances. The Ten nesseeans claim that they were first in the field for the meeting, and they are using this argument constantly. Memphis’ tactics may result in a dark horse selection. The committee on the next meeting place will make its selection Tuesday and Inform the Imperial Council of its action either Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning. Make Big Noise for Atlanta. If there is anybody in Dallas who doef not know that Yaarab Temple, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, is here, and has come to bring the Imperial Council to Atlanta in 1914, he must be deaf dumb and blind. The campaign on.behalf of Atlanta was started the very minute Illus trious Potentate Forrest Adair step ped off the train in this town, the head and front of the most enthusias tic and determined delegation that ever went < it of Atlanta after some thing the town wanted or needed M its business. To be sure, the immediate thing in hand is the session of the Imperial Council now' on in Dallas, but the first thing an Atlanta delegate says to a brother Noble, after making him self known, is “How about this Im perial Council thing for Atlanta next year?” Atlanta Best Advertised. Far and away the best advertised bidder for the honor of entertaining the Shrine next year is Atlanta. The fame of the Yaarab Temple has been perfectly secure in Shrinedom f'rj many moons, and there isn’t a visit- j ing Shriner in this Texas metropolis | who hasn't heard of that great “At- | ianta spirit,” and the amazing things it has accomplished heretofore. There is a feeling in the atmosphere that everything is about over, so far as next year's session is concerned, except the hurrahing for and congrat ulating of Atlanta. Still, nobody is resting. There will be no sort of let up. not so much as a hint of it, until after the vote has been taken in the imperial Council, and Atlanta officially declared the winner. Forrest Adairs Nobles have under taken to convince the Shriners of two things. First, that Atlanta wants lie Imperial Council to be its guest next year, sincerely and earnestly, and sec ond. that Atlanta can and will enter tain and .take care of the gathering most handsomely. "We have convinced tnem that w* have the hotel accommodations.” said Continued on Page 2 Column 3. I RACING RESULTS AT LOUISVILLE.

(3A., May 12.—Will Har- rold, who escaped from the Jasper County gang last Friday and robbed the Jones County Bank and R. H.

Famous American Detective Cables He Will Return Immediately In Response to Col. Felders Plea For His Services to Capture Slayer. William J. Burns, the world-tamed detective, probably will take charge of the Phagan case. The man who unearthed the dynamite outrages and brought the McNamara brothers to justice, will in ali probability come to Atlanta within the next few days and lend his offorts toward clearing up the mystery of the death by strangulation of Marv Phagan. This information was made public Monday following cor respondence between Colonel Thomas B. Felder and Mr. Burns since the discovery of the body in the pencil factory. Mr. Burns is now on fils way from Europe, and will arrive on Tuesday or the following day. Upon his ar rival ill New York he will confer with detectives there and then proceed to Atlanta. Credit Largely Due Felder. The services of Mr. Burns have been secured largely through Mr. Felder's efforts, it lias developed. Upon Mr. Felder's retention by the citizen* of Marietta and relatives of the slain girl to work on the case he journeyed to New York for a conference with Raymond Burns, son of William J. Burns, on the case wltn a view 10 getting the great detective to come here. At that time the eider Burns was n Europe investigating the disappear ance of Wilberforce Martin, and upon being cabled of Mr. Felder's desires replied that he would return immedi ately. Monday it was announced that Burns was on his way to America and that Colonel Felder would take up the Phagan case with him. Felder, It is understood, will give up his own fee to employ Burns and will assist In raising funds for the purpose. Mr. Burns’ warm personal friend ship for Mr. Felder has served in a large measure to draw' the wizard into the local mystery investigation. The history of their acquaintance leads back to the South Carolina dis pensary graft case, which Mr. Felder prosecuted and on which the detec tive was employed It was there the two met. When the Phagan murder was com mitted and its baffling details con fronted Atlanta police, Mr. Felder lost no time In communicating with his friend. That the man who has struck terror to the hearts of criminals by his marvelous knowledge of their ways and his wonderful deductive powers will quickly clear up the mys tery is declared certain by those who have followed his work. With the final rounding up of the evidence against Leo M, Frank and Newt Lee nearing completion. Solici tor General Hugh M. Dorsey on Mon day began the process of elimination of unimportant matter »nd the shap ing of the case for presentation to the Grand Jury. Waits to Arrange Evidence. Whether the case will be ready for that tribunal this week is a matter of doubt. The great msss of testi mony presents a tangle which will re quire some time before it is straight- eend out and arranged properly. So licitor Dorsey declared Monday morn ing that he wbuid not present the matter to the Grand Jury until it hss been put into a clear, concise form and can be easily handled. Quick disposition of the cases of the accused men is assumed once the matter is piaced before the Grand Jury. Should that body find the evi dence sufficient to hold Frank and Lee to trial, their cases will >>e taken up immediately before Judge L. S. Roan, who will open the Criminal Court di vision of the Fulton County Superior Court on next Monday. The evidence against b«'th men will be placed before the Grand Jury si multaneously, according 'o Mr. Dor sey. Sleuth Leaves Mystei iousiy. Much importance is attached to the departure of Solicitor Dorsey’s detec tive Monday morning for parts un known. While the Solicitor, when questioned ss to the destination and purpose of the detective’s Mdp, would give no direct answer, it is believed that the mission is in connection with some clew in the Phagan case which has been unearthed by the mysterious investigator. The fact that a large number of “character witnesses” are now being interrogated in Brooklyn. N. Y., the former home of Frank, and in other parts of the country bears out this supposition. That the detective has not confined himself to the theory followed by city police officials in their accumulation of evidence against Frank and Lee. however, was admitted by Solicitor Dorsey and also the possibility that he has stumbled upon an important clew'. Wife Sees Frank in Tower. While police are exhausting every available source of information to unrawel the mystery. Frank and Lee remain in their cells in the Tower chafing with impatience. Mrs. Frank went to the Tower on Sunday afternoon, paying her first visit to her husband since his arrest nearly two weeks ago. Mrs. Frank was accompanied to the Jail by her father, Emil Helig, of 68 East Georgia Avenue. They remained in consulta tion with the prisoner for nearly an hour. It was definitely learned Monday that Chief lAnford had not complete ly eliminated Newt Lee, the negro night watchman of the pencil factory, and that there still exists a suspicion that he may know something of the crime. In fact, the night watchman has come to be regarded as the real puz zle in the case. Chief Lanford is not satisfied as to Lee and any possible part he may have played in the tragedy. He de clared he had lain awake at night trying to figure out satisfactorily the negro's position. First Words Still Puzzle. The point that prevents detectives fiom eliminating Lee is his first state ments to officers following his discov ery of the dead girl's body. When he first called the police station, he said he had found a “white woman dead in the basement.” The officers who hastened to *he factory declared it would have been impossible for him to have discerned w'hether the girl was white or black from his posi tion when he found her. When the officers arrived. Lee told them the girl was lying flat of her back. They went into the basement and found the dead girl lying face downward Lee also told them that the girl had a wotind in the back of the head. Detectives say it is possible that the negro, in the excitement of finding the body, may have been honestly mistaken as to Its position, but, at Continued on Page 2 Column 2.
