CHARLES STELZLE. Will the Southern Presbyterian As sembly organically unite with one Presbyterian denomination and cut off fraternal relationships with all other protestanla? This is the question which its corn- miraioners probably will be compelled to answer while the Assmebly is in session in Atlanta. There is little doubt that the South ern Assembly will combine with the United PresL v ’terian Uljurch, but It is possible that it will sever its con nection with the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America. The Federal Council includes prat - tlcally the combined Protestant forces jjf ..Ije United States, representing 30 different denominations which have a communicant membership of 16.- 000.000.

New theories have been advanced, new clews examined and every possible theory is being In vestigated. It was because of these rumors on the streets to-day that a report was spread that an entirely new lead was being followed by Solicitor Dorsey that might eliminate both Frank ano Lee Solicitor Dorsey paid very little at tention to the reports. "There are no developments so far." he said, "which would tend to swerve the prosecution from its present course. The rases of tiie two men held wilf^Ve'placed before the Grand Jury as soon as the evidence against them can be properly shaped, unless other developments justify a change." New Theory Investigated. The new theory alluded to has been submitted by a private detective employed by the Solicitor's office. The man, whose identity has not been revealed has been working along lines entirely at variance to those pursued by the prosecutor. Mr. Dorsey stated that while as yet no evidence had been produced to sub stantiate the proposed solution, that his investigators have taken the mat ter up and w’ill go to the bottom of it. Every available means will be used to prove or disprove the detec tive's theory. An important affidavit was added Tuesday to the great mass of evi dence already collected by Solicitor Dorsey. Another affidavit considered of im portance was that made by Mi hi Mag- glt Wyatt, 44 Picket l Street, who formerly w-as employed at the pencil factory. Miss Willie M Rosa, 259 Grew Street, who is said tq have heard screams in the pencil factory at 4:30 on the afternoon of the tragedy, ap peared at Mr Dorsey's office in the morning and made an exhaustive statement which she signed. Dorsey Will Welcome Burns. When asked later what .she knew of the case, Mine Ross declared she had absolutely no knowledge of it. Solicitor Dorsey, when naked about the report that Detective Burnfi was coming to Atlanta to take charge of [the Investigation, declared that he would welcome Mr. Burns. Colonel Felder, whose correspond ence with the great detective gave rise to the report that he would enter the investigation, stated Tuesday morning that he would know posi tively by Wednesday whether Burns would comply with his request. Mr. Burns is due to arrive in New York j from Europe some time Tuesday. The Grand Jury probably will hold I an extra session this week to “clean ! up” the routine docket in order that ; there will be nothing to interfere with i the Phagan cane when it is presented j by Solicitor Genera’. Hugh M. Dorsey. Consider Extra Session, j The Solicitor and his assistant, E. A. Stephens, discussed Monday me advisability of an extra session for one day before. Friday, the regular meeting day, and may Issue a call to the jurors to assemble Wednesday. The Solicitor explained, however., that it probably would take the two sessions this wet a to dispose of the routine, and the Phagan case might not reach the Jury until Friday of next week, or an extra session to be called the first part of the week.

May 13.—For- rest Adair filed with the Imperial Council to-day official invitations from Atlanta for next year's session from Governor Brown, Governor-elect Slaton. Mayor Woodward, the Capital City. Transportation University and Piedmont Driving Clubs and many other social and business organiza tions and person? in Atlanta. There seems to be nothing left that might have been done to insure At lanta's winning the big prize of the session in Dallas. About the hotel* and streets it generally is conceded that Atlanta will win. The parade of the patrols to-day, escorting the Imperial Council to ts opening session, was beautiful and served fmtartn ifrtrwiTt&tw with apecta- tors almost to suffocation. There were about 100 patrols in line, aver aging 60 men each; 20 braa* bands, and a civic procession of something like 150 tilled automobile*. Every patrol wa» uniformed differently and gorgeously. Qraat Parade for To-night. That parade, bigger end better, for already It i* predicted that the at tendance In Atlanta next year la to be much heavier than it Is here, will look mighty attractive along Wblte- ha. and Peachtree next year. The big parade of the session take* place to night, when It is expected that about 15,000 Shrlnera will march In line un der the glitter of 100,000 eleetrto lights. No patrol In to-day's parade at tracted more applause and attention than the Yaarab patrol, under Cap tain J O. Seamans and Lieutenant* Cuts Vandiver and Ashford. Atlanta's tight was given a big bpoat to-day when Colonel Robert 1. folding, of Savannah, arrived and plunged headlong into the contest lo put Atlanta over. Ha Is on* of the best known Shriner* In America, and has been of vast hetp to th* Atlanta workers. FYed Houaer. of Atlanta, has the publicity end of the Atlanta campaign in hand and has handled It splendid ly. The Dallas papers are full of At lanta and Its enterprise to-day. They all pick the Ga>e City for a winner In to-morrow's balloting. Irwin Named Potentate. At th* Texas session, the only thing done of Interest to the public was the election of William W. Irwin, of Wheeling. W. Va., to be imperial po tentate next year. He will preside In Atlanta and he told me to-day that the fact was particularly gratifying to him. He has been outspoken in his sup port of Atlanta for the honor of en tertaining the Shrine in 1914. He and Forrest Adair are great cronies, and have been at many sessions of the Imperial Council, The other Impe rial Council members were advanced in rotation, as is custoiary in the order. There was a mighty careful check ing up of names and counting of pores along aomew’here after midnight last night. The Yaarah workers did not quit talking Atlanta until the rest of creation out here had gone to bed. Along about daylight Forrest Adair figured that Atlanta had It on Memphis by about two to one. Maybe jt is more than that, but two to one looks good enough anyway. Memphis is putting up the gament sort of fight The Tennessee city has a big bunch of rooter* here and the town has been flooded with lit erature. However, Atlanta has been right there with the literature, and In the matter of pure unadulterated talk and hard work th* Georgia city has made Memphis hard to locate.
