ATLANTA, UA., TUESDAY, MAY 13, 1913. 2 CENTS EVERYWHERE p tf yJ & 0 ASSEMBLIES B A S E B A L L BRADY FACE SPLIT Objection to National Protestant Platform May Act as Bar to Presbyterian Merger. By REV. CHARLES STELZLE. Will the Southern Presbyterian As sembly organically unite with one Presbyterian denomination and cut off fraternal relationships with all other protestants? This is the question which its com- mivsioners probably will be compelled to answer while the Assmebly is in aes.-ion in Atlanta. T r* is little doubt that the South ern Assembly will combine with the ! T niied Presbyterian Church, but it is possible that it will sever its con- r’^cii >n with the Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in America. The Federal Council includes prai- tically the combined Protestant forces 1 of the United States, representing .‘10 differenT denominations which have a communicant membership of 16,- hoo.oon. One of the chief reasons given by those who favor the separ ation is their objection to the social service platform adopted by-the Fed eral Council. Platform of Council. Here is the platform of the Council to which exception has been taken: The Church must stand: 1. For equal rights and com plete just ice for all men in all nations of life. 2. For the protection of the family, by the single standard of purity, uniform divorce laws, proper regulation of marriage and proper housing. :L For the fullest possible de velopment for every child, espe cially by the provision of prop er education and recreation. 4. For h * abolition of child labor. 5. For such regulations of the conditions of toil for women as shall safeguard the physical and moral health of the community. 6. For the abatement and pre vention of poverty. 7 For the protection of the in dividual and society from the social, economic ana moral waste of tlie liquor traffic. k For the conservation health. P. For the protection of worker from dangerous machin- "pry. occupational diseases and mortality. For Aiding Workers. 10. For t> right* of all men to the opportunity of self-mainten ance. for safeguarding this right against encroachment of every • kind, and for the protection of workers from the hardships of enforced unemployment. 11. For suitable provision for the old age of the workers, and for those incapacitated by in jury. 12. For the right of employees and employers' alike to organize for adequate means of conciliation and arbitration in industrial dis putes. 13. For a release from employ ment one day in seven. 14. For the gradual and rea sonable reduction of the hours cf labor to the lowest practicable point, and for that degree of lei sure for all, which is a condition of the highest human life. 15. F'or a living wage as a minimum in every industry, and for the highest wage that each industry can afford. 16. For a new emphasis upon the application of Christian prin ciples to the acquisition and use of property, and for the most equitable division of the product of industrv that can ultimately be devised.

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 to jam the streets with specta tors almost to suffocation. There were about 100 patrols in line. ave% aging 50 men each; 20 brass bands, and a civic procession of something like 150 filled automobiles. Every patrol was uniformed differently an 1 gorgeously. Grsat Parade for To-night. That parade, bigger and better, for already it ifi predicted that the at tendance in Atlanta next year is to be much heavier than it is here, will look mighty attractive along White hall and Peachtree next year. The big parade of the session takes place to night. when it is expected that about 15,000 Shriners will march In ilne un der the glitter of 100,000 electric lights. No patrol in to-day s parade ‘at tracted more applause and attentijn than the Yaarab patrol, under Cap tain J. O. Seamans and Lieutenants Cuts Vandiver and Ashford.

Detectives In the Phagan mystery are not centering all their efforts upon Frank and Lee. 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 and ^ee. 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 cases of the two men hHd will be 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 will 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 Miss Mag- git Wyatt, 44 Pickett Street, whi formerly was employed at the pencil factory. Miss Willie M Ross. 269 Crew Street, who is said to have heard creams 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. Mis*a Ross declared she had absolutely no knowledge of it. Solicitor Dorsey, when asked about the report that Detective Burns was ’oming 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 from Europe some time Tuesday. The Grand Jury probably will hold an extra session this week to “clean up" the routine docket In order that there will be nothing to interfere with the Phagan case when it is presented by Solicitor General Hugh M. Dorsey. Consider Extra Session. The Solicitor and his assistant, E. A. Stephens, discussed Monday the 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 week 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. Mrs. Rudolph Frank, mother of Le*o Frank, was seen for the first time at her home in Brooklyn Monday by the newspaper reporters. Shs de-
