She has been greatly af- foted by the shadow which is hov ering: over her son’s life, but had said nothing of his plight to her neighbors until Monday, as she had been hop ing against hope that he would be liberated by the Coroner’s jury. Mother Thinks He Is Innocent. My son is entirely innocent," she is quoted as saying. “But it is a ter rible thing that even the suspicion should fall on him 1 have every con fidence that he will be proved guilt less of the terrible crime. “He is suspected merely because he was the last one who is known to have seen her op the day she was killed. I know it will he shown that be had no knowledge of who put the girl to death." Mrs. Frank has not seen her son since nearly three years ago when she and her husband came to Atlanta to attend the marriage of young Frank to the daughter of Kmil Selig. It is understood that she is planning to return to Atlanta to be with Frank in the event that he is indicted by the Grand Jury. She always has been proud of her son and happy at his rapid rise in the business world. Although only 29 years old he has been the superin tendent in charge of the National Pencil Company's plant for several years. Before coming to Atlanta about five years ago he was with the National Meier Company, of Brooklyn. He is a Cornell graduate. Burns Leaves New York. The arrival of William J. Burn* is expected in New York Tuesday aft ernoon. As announced in The Geor gian Monday the great detective has been engaged to work personally upon the Phagan mystery. He is expected to come here at the solicitation of Colonel Thomas B. Felder, who is representing the friends and relatives of the slain girl. Colonel Felder Interviewed Ray mond Burns, son of the famous de tective. in New York, and a cable w is at once dispatched to England, where Burns had been looking for J. Wilberforce Martin. the wealthy Memphian whose mysterious disap pearance stirred two continents. Burns quickly found that Martin was safe and unharmed and withdrew from the case. The detective will be in Atlanta Thursday on his way to Macon, where he has been invited to speak before the Georgia State Bank ers’ Association. Chief of Detectives Hanford just smiles when Solicitor Dorsey’s "mys terious sleuth” is mentioned. Mr. Dorsey announced several days ago that he had the best detective in the world on the Job. Who is “Mysterious Sleuth?” 'The sleuth Is either Detective John Starnes or Patrick Campbell,” said Chief Lanford. "Both of these ni-it Htt attached t<» the tockl staff and are working under the solicitor.” The solic itor continued to deny that the man was a local detective. I intend to withhold his name until the proper time.’’ he said. ‘He is out of the city at present working on sev eral new phases of the Phagan case. Upon his,return 1 may be able to give out soni startling information.” Frank s Life in Tower; Scores Try to See Him. Of the many prisoners confined in the Tower. Leo Al. Frank stands far above them all as the central figure In the public eye while the exhaus tive investigation into the death of Mary Phagan continues. Hundreds of curious persons apply daily at the prison in a futile effort to see the man now being held in the Phagan mystery. The jailers are be set with thousands of questions per taining to his life during the two weeks that he has spent behind the bars.

The man on other occasions has refused point blank to be interviewed or questioned. He has maintained an unbroken si lence on the accusations made against him by the State. Cheerful With Friends. To his friends, however, Frank pre sents an amazingly bright counte nance. Frequently his laughter is heard ringing through the dismal cor ridors of the Tower Despite his cheery disposition, however, he has grown pale under his confinement. Frank occupies cell No. 2 in the South corridor of the jail. The fol lowing is the routine of his daily life: Arises at 7 o’clock each morning; shaves with a safety razor brought him by a Jailer and dresses for break fast. Morning meal is brought to him at 7:30 and he partakes of It from a low bench In lieu of a table. Frank’s meals are all prepared at Ids home and sent to the Tower. He is permitted to have any food that he may desire. So far. the prison life has not affected his appetite, which is one of a healthy man. Reads Papers Carefully. After breakfast Frank is handed the morning papers, which h^ perus. s carefully, especially with reierence to his own case. Despite what the print ed pages may contain about him. though, the prisoner has never been known to comment on the newspaper articles Frank is a great reader. As the single electric lamp in the corridor does not furnish sufficient light to read by in the cells adjacent, the prisoner has secured a candle and un der its dickering flame reads maga zines and other periodicals. Friends of the prisoner begin to ar rive about 9 o’clock. He converses with them through the bars. At 2 o'clock he is served with dinner. Dur ing the afternoon Frank receives more of his friends and whiles away the Idle hours in reading. Wife Embraces Him. When his wife called for the firs' time since his confinement Sunday afternoon, Frank was allowed to re ceive her in the “consultation room.” The meeting between the husband and wife was affecting. Tearfully Mrs. Frank clasped he-" arms about her husband's neck anl kissed him as they met. Following the visit, which was of an hours duration. Frank was returned to his cell. The prisoner is served with supper at 6:30 o’clock and retires at »hou‘ 11 o’clock. He sleeps on a regulation prison cot. Mother Thinks Police Are Doing Their Best. Mrs. J. \V. Coleman, mother of 111- i tie 14-year-old Mary Phagan. pros- I trated with grief for sixteen days fol- I lowing the tragic slaying of her child, took up her household duties Tues day for the first time, resigned to the calamity that has befallen her j home, and relying on the law to avenge the death jof her child. “It was such a beautiful morning.” 1 said Mrs. Coleman to a Georgian re porter "and I have been able to rest now for three nights, so 1 felt like doing my work again. My house has been in such a turmoil since this dreadful tragedy. I feel 1 am help- ’ess and have resigned myself to the sad lot that has befallen us. All we can do is wait, and waiting is a hard task. No Complaint of Police. "Don’t misunderstand me. 1 am hot complaining about what the officers a if doing It is far better to go slow and be sure that we are doing right than to hurry and make a mis take. I believe that the police and the solicitor are doing everything they can to find the guilty man. They «.ugiit to do it; such a crime ought to be punished. But l do not want them to make a mistake. “I heard that feeling was very strong last week, but I am glad that no hasty action was taken. It might have been all wrong, and I think l would have been grieved as much as anybody. “We hove made many Inquiries among our friends and acquaintances and have not found one who saw Mary after 12 o'clock Saturday, when she went to the factory tc get her pay. So much seems to depend on that point, and if anyone did see her. he certainly ought to tell about it. It does look like if Mary were o*i the streets Saturday afternoon, as many friends ns we have, some of them would have seen her. We do not be lieve she ever left the factory. Has Rend No Reports. Mrs. Coleman, since her nervouf collapse, has not been allowed to read the newspapers, her husband realiz ing the seriousness of her condition Since last Wednesday she has had absolute quiet, and Tuesday she re sumed her duties with the ho* e. as she expressed it. “to make home like it used to be. if possible." She de clared that only the strength and vigor that has always been hers en abled her to withstand the blow that had befallen her. “Mary and I were very much alike," she said, “strong and healthy. Mary would have been 14 years old on June 1, t)ut she was very large and ro bust for her age. She oi.en passed fov 16. Her birthday is nearly here, but it will be so different this year.” Gambler Who Shot Detective Uncaught Detectives Tuesday had positive evidence that Hamby Lester, a negro living in an alley just off Alexander Street, between the Peachtrees, is the man who shot and seriously wounded Detective Sam Webb Saturday night in a gambling raid in Lester’s home. The negro gamesters bagged in the raid testified before Judge Broyles Monday that they saw Lester fire point blank toward »he door as the detectives entered. Lester still is at large. Judge Broyles held nine negroes for trial in the State courts on a charge of gaming FOR INDIGESTION Horsford's Acid Phosphate Hearse Drivers War On Sunday Funerals NEW YORK. May 13.- The hearse and carriage drivers of Brooklyn have declared that Sunday weddings and funerals must go. In their campaign to do away with the burial of per sons and weddings on Sunday they are trying to enlist the services of the clergy. As to weddings, they are a unit for Cupid taking a day off. but they are willing to bury <*n Sunday persons dying of contagious diseases. pick ihe Oa*e City for a winner in orrow's balloting. Irwin Named Potentate, the 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 customary in the order. There was a mighty careful check ing up of names and counting of noses along somewhere after midnight last night. The Yaarab 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 j Memphis by about two to one. Maybe it is more than that, but two to one looks good enough anyway. Memphis is putting up the game**, sort of fight. The Tennessee city has a big bunch of rooters 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 the Georgia city has made Memphis hard to locate. John Hynds, Joe Greenfield and Claude Hutcheson have been Po- tentate Adair's right hand men in the fight for Atlanta, and when the cred it is slid up and passed around, like wise the glory, they will come In for a large share of both, along with Mr. Adair. Mr. Adair expressed himself to me to-day as particularly gratified with the help extended the Atlanta move ment by the Hearst newspapers. “I hear from Mr. Hearst’s personal appeals and his newspapers’ work for next year’s big meeting at all turns. His publications, especially In the West, have helped tremendous ly in bringing support to Atlanta. If Atlanta wins, as I expect, we will owe much to Mr. Hearst." In the hotel lobbies one sees At lanta newspapers everywhere. One hears Atlanta talk everywhere. The great 12 hours' hustle Atlanta made to rau«e that entertainment fund of I nearly $100,000 is talked of by every body. Whenever I buttonhole Shriner and ask him how about that Imperial Council meeting next year, and 1 have done that about 100 times since I landed here. I never get a reply that does not make some ref erence to that great financial stunt The impression seems to be that o tow A capable of doing that is cap able of doing anything, no matter how big. "Don’t Worry, Atlanta.” In the matter of taking care of the Imperial Council next year, I should say to Atlanta. ''Don't worry.” What ever this town of Dallas can do foot loose and free. Atlanta can do with one hand tied behind her back and a hobble vkirt draped around her an kles. Not that Dallas is not a great little town, either, for it is, but still i* >s not Atlanta Dallas simply is bulging with Shriners. It is packed and jammed and it is acting hand somely toward the visitors. “The city is profusely and beauti- fully decorated.

Wilson and Cabinet Discuss Alien Law; Johnson Will Sign WASHINGTON, May 13.—The Jap anese situation was discussed for the greater part of two hours at the meet ing of the President with his Cabinet, but at the conclusion of the confer ence absolute silence waa maintained regarding the subject. SACRAMENTO, May 13.—A reply by Governor Johnson to the message of Secretary of State Bryan, advis ing against hasty action in the Cali fornia anti-alien law legislation was expected to-day. The Governor an nounced that he would not discuss the subject until he had replied to Secretary Bryan, which likely would be to-day. He intimated that he would sign the Webb anti-alien land bill, but that he would delay action out of re spect to President Wils«on’s wishes. In his farewell message to the Leg islature Governor Johnson said: “I would like to have mentioned the land bill wilh the others that 1 consider worthy accomplishments in legislation this season, but I refrained from so doing because it would not be courteous to siay anything in ad vance of my reply to Mr. Bryan's telegram.” PHOENIX. A BIZ., May 13.—A slight amendment by the Senate to the House anti-alien land bill makes it necessary for the measure to be passed on by a conference between the two houses before it is sent to the Governor. It was predicted the conference would agree on the bill this afternoon. The Governor’s atti tude is not known, although his closest friends say he will sign it. Four hundred Japanese residents of the State will appeal to the Governor to veto the bill. stand around and invite fez wearers to get in and ride to their hearts’ content, which many of them do. The hotels and boarding houses are play ing fair, and there is no gouging. For its size, Dallas is a wonder. It, however, is only about one-half the size of Atlanta. If Dallas can enter tain 25,000 visitors—and it is enter taining approximately that many to day—then Atlanta can handle 50,000 and never mind it or find it the least uncomfortable. Somehow, too. the Dallas newspa pers seem to feel and hope that At- ENTRIES LOUISVILLE ENTRIES.

The Imperial Council is holding its first session to-day. Yesterday was given over to handshaking, Shriner- esque kidding, merrymaking and get ting things under way. All one hears as one walks along the streets of Dallas to-day is “Morning. Silas.” That’s the greeting, and everybody hands it to you, whether he ever saw you before or not. It’s the same friendly, happy, good-natured greet ing that the Elks' “Hello. Bill” is. The voting on next year’s meeting place will be held some time during Wednesday's session. The big parade, one of the annual events people come hundreds of miies to see, occurs to night, and Dallas has fixed her streets for the glittering spectacle in such wise that they will be as bright as day when the parade is passing. To-day’s session of the Imperial Council began at 9 o’clock, but its proceedings were secret in the main. To-morrow's session will be the one to tell the big story. East Aids Gate City. One most gratifying thing about Atlanta’s big fight for the Imperial Council next year is the way Shriners from all over the East and South east are rallying to her support. There is not a member of the imperial or ganization from a State that touches Georgia, except Tennessee, that is not for Atlanta. Whatever little jeal ousies there may be or may have been between Atlanta and other cities of the South, they are all for Atlanta in the movement to make Atlanta the next year’s meeting place, and it is more than half way suspected that Memphis will swin^ into line before the ballot is spread and make it unanimous for the Gate City of the South. “The Shriners want to go to At lanta and they are going,’’ The Dallas Times-Herald quotes Forrest Adair as saying. “Many of them have al ready visited the Georgia city and have seen for themselves that we have the hotels. Every temple knows that we have the money for the en tertainment, too. You just can't get away from the fact that Atlanta pledged $76,000 in less than one day. If it will take more than $75,000 the amount needed will be there. The Shriners will have everything they want &nd more than they can ask when they go to Atlanta.” Atlantans All Optimistic. This feeling of optimism is reflected in every Atlanta visitor in Dallas to-day. The magnificent campaign the Gate City has made for next year’s meeting is destined to win out. or Adair and his men are the worst fooled lot that ever were, and the betting is 1.000 1o 1 that they have not been fooled for a minute. And don’t forget Mrs. Shriner and the Misses Shriner are here in all their freshness and loveliness—5,000 or so of them. Believe me. they are on hand and everybody notices them and approves of their presence. A prettier lot of girls I never saw' than these Tcrias specimens. Southern beauty is more or less running riot in Dallas to-day. ELKS DANCE TO NIGHT. A subscription dance will be held at the Elks' Home to-night for the benefit of the organ fund.

Rams Grizzly Bear To Death With Auto WALDEN, COLO., May 13—When a huge grizzly bear rushed at Dr. J. A. Dungan, of this city, as he was making a visit in the mountains Sun day, he saved himself from possib'e death by throwing a laprobe over the animal’s head and then ramming it with his automobile. The bear was instantly killed. The doctor was at the end of a road at the foot of a steep hill and was about to stop the car to go to a ranch farther up the valley when the bear charged him. It got only a mouthful of laprobe. The doctor wrapped the rest of th® robe around the bear’s head, and while it wrestled with the robe in the dirt he ran over it. ML HE IS Edward Brown, Angry but Small, Swears Vengeance, Then Calls Police. Contest Over Open Hearings In dicates Strength of Opponents to Underwood Measure. An angry husband waited for three hours at the Terminal Station Tues day morning determined to wreak vengeance upon the man who. he said had enticed his 17-.vear-old bride of four months from his home and gone with her to Macon, Ga., her former home. Then he notified the police and now awaits developments. The husband is Edward M. Brown, of 20 Hayden Street. He appeared at the station at 7:50 o'clock, when a train is due Into Atlanta from Macon, but the man he claimed he was after, J. G. Reeves, a real estate operator, did not appear. Brown waited. About 10 o’clock Reeves strode into the station from the train platforms. Brown started toward Reeves and stopped before he reached him. Brown is a little man, and he surveyed the well-built real estate man dubiously. Then he returned to his seat. Daunted by Hi* Siz*. "He's pretty big.” he said. “I won't whip him; I’ll have him arrested.” Brown asserts that Reeves has showered attentions upon his wife. Mrs. Amelia Brown, for the past three weeks, and yesterday afternoon, he claims, he induced her to leave her husband and go to Macon. Brown de clares that Reeves met Mrs. Browm and her mother, Mrs. Sally Bryant, at the station and purchased their tick ets to Macon, buying one for himself a-so. “We were married in Macon four months ago,” said Brown, “and until this Reeves appeared on the scene we were happy. About three weeks ago I decided to buy a lot and this man was sent to sell it to me. He came out to the house to see me about it, and after that he kept coming. I hur ried the purchase of the lot and told my wife to keep away from Reeves. Threatened To Go Home. “Even after I had bought the lot he kept coming around and taking my wife out in an automobl T e. I told h:m to keep aw'ay, and be began sneaking around when I wasn't at home. When I came home yesterday afternoon my wife said she was going home with her mother, and said that if 1 wouldn’t give her any money she had a friend who would. “I w r ent downtown on some busi ness last night, and w’hen I got home I was told that my wife had gone. A girl who lives in the house said she had gone to the station with my wife and her mother, and that Reeves had met them there. Reeves took my wife’s grips, the girl told me, and went to the train with them. She said she saw him get on the train, and he didn't get off. I hur ried to the station to stop them, but the train had gone. Then I went to the police station, and they told me to get a gun and shoot Reeves. Claims Former Marriage. “I’m going to have Reeves and my wife arrested, and I'm going to get a divorce. I learned yesterday I’m not the only husband she has. She told me when we were married she had been mariied before, but said her other husband was dead. I found out he is not dead.” Miss Thelma Bigbv, the girl who accompanied Mrs. Brown to the Ter minal Station, corroborated Brown’s i'tory Tuesday morning. “Reeves met Mrs. Brown at the corner of Luekie and Harris Streets late yesterday afternoon, before Mr. Brown got home,” she said. “They talked a long time, and then Mrs. Brown came in and had a talk with her mother. Then she asked us to tell her husband \frhen he came home that she had gone to her old home with her mother and was not coming back. Reeves Didn't Return. “I went to the station with her, and Mr. Reeves met them there. He took their grips and told her not to worry, 'i'll fix everything so we can be together in a few' days,’ I heard him say. “Mr. Reeves went to the train with them, telling me he would return in a minute. I waited almost half an hour after the train had gone, and he didn't come back.” BABY, KIDNAPED BY AN INSANE NEGRESS, FOUND JACKSONVILLE, FLA., Alay 13.— Lucile Arbed, the eighteen-months- old baby kidnaped by an insane ne- gress yesterday, was found in a pit iable condition to-day near an aban doned race track just outside the city, still in custody of the woman. The baby's muffled cries directed the searchers to a stall where the woman was trying to hush it. The child was almost starved, and showed evidence of abuse, but it was not maimed. GAME WARDEN AND DEPUTY ON WAY TO MILLT0WN POND SAVANNAH. GA., May 13—Ac- companied by his son. W. C. West- oott. Deputy Game Warden Charles B. Westcott leaves to-night /or Mill- town to take charge of the fish sit uation there. He is acting under in structions from State Game and Fish Commissioner Jesse E. Mercer, who will meet Westcott in Milltown Thursday and map out a plan of cam paign. WASHINGTON. May 13.—The fate of the Underw'ood tariff bill in the Senate was in the balance to-day while the Republicans and Democrats debated on the Penrose motion to in struct the Senate Finance Committee to hold open hearings on the meas ure. The -clash also tended to show the real strength of the supporters of the administration measure. It is on the sugar and wool sehei-, ules that the fight will come, and Democratic leader* anxiously watched the debate to see how far the defec tion started by Senators Ransdell and Thornton of Louisiana had influ enced Senators from the sugar and wool-producing States. It already had been agreed to refer the Underw'ood bill to the Finance Committee without public hearings when that measure was brought from the House Friday. Senator Simmons, chraiman of the committee, made a motion to this effect, followed Imme diately by a motion by Senator Pen rose for public hearings. So critical was the situation raised by the Penrose motion that a*call was issued for every Democratic Senat >r to be in his seat. The Republican? also marshaled their entire strengtn to fight for open hearings. LaFollette to Draft A New Tariff Measure. WASHINGTON, May IS.—Senator LaFollette will not confine his tariff - making efforts to the wool and cot ton schedules. He intends to draft practically a complete bill. This measure will be offered in the Senate, probably as a substitute for the Un derwood bill. He regards many of the Democratic rates as too low. BIBB GRAND JURY PROBES VICE DISTRICT IN MACON MACON.
