He is simply try ing to attract attention away from what he has done. "As for any evidence he claims to have about my moral turpitude as chief of police or as a citizen.

"February has proved that he is not fit to serve in the police department In any capacity." Mayor Woodward, before beginning his statement, said he wanted to make it clear that he was vigorously op posed to public controversies with heads of departments. He said it was not tiie way to run the city’s business, ami but . for Chief Beavers’ attack, which misrepresented his position, he would say nothing. Never Urged Reopening. He said: "I have never urged a reopening of the Tenderloin to Heavers.

The slaying of Mary | Phagan. however, who straight mur der or nothing, and the State will de mand the limit. "While the evidence is purely cir cumstantial. still I'rn satisfied it is strong enough to thoroughly convince any Jury." The confession of Jim Conley, the negro factory sweeper, that, from dic tation by Frank, he wrote the mys terious notes found beside the dead body of Mary Phagan in the factory basement, has added an unexpected phase to the case, arid brought aboui much .‘'peculation. Detectives admit that they are skeptical of the negro's confession, as they are unable to rec oncile it with other circumstances. Was Slaying Planned? If his story Is true, detectives say it means that the murder was premed itated and planned, as he declares the notes were written the afternoon be fore the tragedy. The accented theory it* that the murder was not planned? but resulted from unexpected condi tions at the time. Conley sticks to his confession. He told a Georgian reporter that he con fessed because he considered it safer for him,‘that he feared if he didn’t tell the truth he might he hanged. He will he put through another rigid ex amination In the office of detectives Monday as a test of his truthfulness. He aleo will be shown the original murder notes for the purpose of iden tification. He has not seen these notes since his arrest three weeks ago. .lust what bearing the negro’s story will have on the case officers are not prepared to say. Chief of Detectives Lanford Mon day afternoon declared his belief that the confession of James Connally, the negro sweeper, that he wrote the murder notes at the dictation cl < Frank, is absolutely false in every de. I tail. He said he attached no impor tance whatever to the confession. The lines on which the State will seek the conviction of Frank were carefully mapped out in a three-hour conference between Solicitor Dorsey and Chief Lanford the latter part of last week. The number of witnesses to be introduced, the order in which they will he. called and all other essential details were agreed on. Contentions of State. The contention of t,he State, briefly outlined, will be this: First. That the murder of Mary Phagan \yas an "inside job;’’ that it was committed inside the fac tory, and by a person connected with the place. Second. That Leo M. Frank, in struggling with tHe girl, accident ally forced her against a machine, knocking her unconscious, and. fearing exposure, killed the girl by strangulation, and hid her body in the basement, where it was found by Newt Lee, the night watchman. Third. Mary Phagan ha0 work- ed but one day, Monday, in the week of the tragedy, and was not notified that the employees would receive their rftoney Friday after noon and that the factory would he closed Saturday, on account of • Memorial Day; that she \ ent to the factory alone at noon Satur day to get her money, finding » Frank alone in the office. She asked Frank if the metal had ar rived. She worked in the metal department and had been laid off because of the lack of material. Frank, the State will claim, prob ably enticed the girl back into the factory by remarking that they would go back and see if the metal had come. Fourth. That Frank had or dered New t Lee to report for duty hi 4 o’clock In the afternoon, # and that when Lee arrived at the fac tory Frank told him to go away and have a goad time and return at 6 o’clock. Frank appeared net - vous ar.d agitated and was wring ing his hands. After the negro left. Frank removed the girl and carried her down on the elevator. The girl revived after being taken from the closet, and Frank stran gled her with a piece of twine, which probably lie had used in binding her ha ids or feet in order that he might carry her more easily. * Negro Not Accomplice. Fiftn. That Frank left the fac tory shortly after 6 o’clock, and that he called New t Lee over the telephone shortly afterwards, ask ing If everything was all right— a thing he had never done before. Sixth. That Newt Lee had ab solutely no connection with the crime turther than the finding of w the body af 3:30 o’clock Sunday morning. Seventh. Th^u Monteen Stover, of 175 South Forsyth Streei, a girl employee, called for her money shortly after 12 o'clock on Saturday and found Frank out of the officer She waited ten min utes and left. Evidence, which has not been dis closed, \ Ml be presented to strengthen these pjlrts. From what has been made public, it is plain the State has only circum stantial evidence—and little of that bearing directly » n the crime. Police Board Minority as Anxious to Overthrow Chairman as Beavers and Lanford. Pencil Factory Owners Told Him Not to Shield Superintend ent, Scott Declares. Well informed politicians declared Monday that any efforts to remove Chief of Police Beavers and Chief of Detectives Newport Lanford were doomed to failure because of the sup port of the two officer* by Carlos Ma son, chairman of the Police Board, and his supporters. Despite rumors of changes of line up on account of developments of the last few {lays, all indications are that, if the issue of removing Beavers and Lanford is made, the relative strength of the two old factions will remain constant, as follows: How Board Lines Up. For Beavers and Lanford—Chair man Carlos H. Mason. First Ward; W. P. Fain, Second Ward; W. A. Ver- noy. Third Ward; B. Lee Smith, Fourth Ward; Charles R. Garner, Fifth Ward; J. N. McEaehern, Sev enth Ward; A. it. King, Ninth Ward, and Graham P. Dozier, Tenth Ward. Total. 8. Against Beavers and Lanford— Mayor Woodward; George E. Johnson, Sixth Ward, and Robert C. Clark, Eighth Ward. Doubtful -A. Ft. Colcord, chairman of the Council Police Committee. The most illuminating fact in the whole situation is that the minority In the Police Commission is as desir ous of overthrowing the Mason faction as it is of ousting Beavers. However, a number of members of the commis sion were laying for Lanford’s scalp long before Beavers was made chief. Echoes of this opposition are con stantly heard in the Council Finance Committee when efforts are made to secure increases in salaries for the detectives. Police Ring Charged. So intense are the feelings of the Mayor that he has announced Fie would oppose any effort of the Mason men to remove Beavers. If the Mason faction should start any reforms in the police department, which they are not at all likely to do—-for Chairman Mason reiterates his confidence in his men and declares he thinks the charges of crookedness false—Mayor i Woodward and his followers likely | would oppose them. They charge the I police department is being run by a | "ring." The Mayor and his followers see a , slight hope of victory through the j fight over Beavers’ authority to name I men for promotion. Privately, they [charged that the Mason faction was (dictating Beavers' nominations, and i when the vote was taken Oommission- $ therefore, aiding digestion ) J ers Yernoy and Garner joined them. \ 1 j The result was a tie vote, and the But Harry Scott, assistant superintend ent of the Pinkertons, announced Monday his belief that l^eo M. Frank was responsible for the slaying of 14-year-old Mary Phagan April 26. He added that his agency had been working on this theory from the time its services were engaged by officials of the National Pencil Company, two days after the crime. Scott previously had said the Pink ertons were on the case to find the guilty man. even though it might be Frank. His latest statement is be lieved to have been prompted by the attack on the Pinkertons by Colonel Thomas B. Felder. Mr. Scott declared he not only be lieved Frank responsible for the kill ing, but that he proposed to lay his evidence before the court and assist in the prosecution of the factory su perintendent. He is in possession, he said, of considerable evidence which has not been made public. Soon after the investigation was undertaken, Scott says he went to the men employing him and asked if he was supposed to protect Frank. He said if he was he would have to throw- up the job. He was told, he said, that he had been engaged to find the guilty man,whoever he might be. It was on this assurance tiie Pinkertons con tinued the investigation, according io Scott. Releases Druggist Whose Ar rest, to Serve Blind Tiger Sen tence, Recorder Ordered. Broyles' Reply to Thrust of Mayor Judge Broyles said to-day: "Tiie Mayor calls me a mono maniac because I believe firmly and uncompromisingly in sup pressing crime and upholding the law. I believe that the lawless ness in Atlanta, in Georgia and in our whole country make a very serious situation—a situation only a few steps removed from anarchy —for the law is the only protection that organized society has against riot, murder and anarchy, and un less It is firmly enforced by the judges and juries of our country crime will increase instead of di minish. "America is now the most lawless country in the world, and unless we can check the wave of crime that is sweeping over us anarchy will soon be among us. "If these views make me a mon omaniac. then I accept the title.’’ Mayor Woodward Monday retal iated for Recorder Nash R. Broyles’ ! attack that he was blocking justice, by pardoning Dr. W. D. Roper, pro prietor of a drug store at the corner of Pryor and Wall Streets, who had been convicted of operating a "blind tiger" and sentenced to 30 days in the stockade. Roper was given the pref erence of paying $500, but Saturday he began the service of his term in the city prison. Recorder Broyles’ judgment on Roper was sustained by the Court of Appeals about two months ago The doctor appealed to Mayor Woodward for a pardon, and Mayor Woodward requested Chief Beavers to take no action until the case could be thor oughly investigated, Chief Beavers complied and Roper was free without any action being taken in his case until Saturday, when Recorder Broyles ordered him arrested and his sentence imposed. Sees Lack of Evidence. "I am not seeking any row w r ith Recorder Broyles," said Mayor Wood ward. "I am pardoning Dr. Roper because 1 don’t think there is suffi cient evidence against him.* He was convicted on circumstantial evidence, principally because a number of whisky bottles were found in the \ basement of his store." The pardoning row’ between Re corder Broyles and Mayor Woodward threatens to become even more acute over the case of Mattie Lou White, who has been convicted of selling whisky and disorderly conduct, and sentenced to pay a fine of $500 or serve 30 days in the stockade. The Recorder’s decision in this case was sustained by the Court of Appeals. The woman is walking the streets free with a letter from Mayor Wood;? ward, dated May 7. instructing po licemen not to molest her until he has had time to go fully into her applica tion for clemency. To Take Similar Action. "I expert to take the same course in the White case that I took in the Roper case." said Recorder Broyles Monday. "I am going to order her arrest unless the Mayor acts, within the next few days. "Probably I should act to-day, but 1 am going to give full time for the Mayor and myself to think deliber ately over this matter "Tiie Mayor has* a right to exercise the pardoning power over sentences of 30 days and fines of $50 and over. But he has got to act in these mat ters and make written records of his interpositions. These people can’t walk the streets free merely on his advice." Broyles Made Charges. These official acts of Atlanta’s two prominent officials follow a severe de nunciation of Mayor Woodward by Recorder Broyles, which was pub lished Friday. He declared that the Mayor was blocking justice, practi cally immunizing "blind tigers" from punishment and seriously interfering with himself and the police in their efforts to keep Atlanta moral. Mayor Woodward declared Monday that he was doing all he could to evade a newspaper controversy. He said it was decidedly improper for city officials to try to settle their dif ferences in such a way. While his acts are defiant of the Recorder and the police, he mildly says he is merely doing his duty as he sees it. "I have nothing to say about Beav ers' statement published yesterday. He did not attack me. If he thinks I am after him he is mistaken. "His attitude in this whole matter is a joke. It is unimportant." Topeka, Kans., Chief Wires Beav ers That Burns Detective Was Not Convicted. That the local police authorities are tracing the past record of C. W. Tobie, the Burns operative investigat ing the Phagan case, came definitely into light Monday morning when Police Chief Beavers received a tele- fram from the Chief of Police of To peka. Kans.. regarding the detective. The telegram was in answer to one sent by Beavers some days ago to * Topeka asking for Tobie’s police rec- ( nrd there. The answer stated that ' while Tobie had been involved in a kidnaping case in Topeka, that he had never been convicted on this score. The telegram read: Topeka, Kans.. May 26. 1913. Chief of Police, Atlanta. Ga.: Tobie tried to kidnap incubator baby at Sedan. Kansas, but failed, being employed by Detective Til- . lotson. Subsequently. Tillotson » kidnaped the child at Topeka and was convicted, but Tobie was not convicted of the Topeka kid naping. J. W. F. HUGHES. Chief of Police. Burns Men Going Ahead. Tobie said Monday that recent sen sational developments in the Mary Phagan murder case, involving charges of frame-ups by and against the Burns agency, would have no ef fect whatever on the agency's inves tigations or the coming of W. J. Burns himself to Atlanta. 'We are going right ahead, just as if these things had not happened. ’ said Tobie. Tobie said W. J. Burns was not due to arrive in America until June 1. Recent developments, he repeated, would not influence one way or the other his proposed coming to Atlanta. Telegraphic information was re ceived from New York that Raymond Burns, son of the great detective, was on his way to Atlanta. Tobie said this afternoon that Raymond was in New York, and that he knew nothing of his contemplated or intended com ing to Atlanta. Following publication of newspaper articles in which Tobie said Pinker ton detectives were involved in a frame-up against the Burns agency, the Atlanta branch of the Pinkerton National Detective Agency has sent The Georgian a written denial. t The denial applies also to similar charges voiced by (’olonel Thomas B. Felder. Pinkerton Makes Denial. Allan Pinkerton, w'ho signs the de nial. says, in part: "These statements, in so far as they V refer to Pinkerton's National Detec tive Agency, are absolutely without an iota of truth, as Pinkerton’s Na tional Detective Agency had absolute ly no previous knowledge or informa tion concerning or pertaininfg to the issue between certain Atlanta city of ficials and Attorney-at-Law Thomas B. Felder." Dan S. Lehon, general superintend ent of all Southern agencies of the. Burns detective service, stationed in New Orleans, spent Sunday and Mon day in Atlanta. His arrival gave currency to repoFs that the Burns force in Atlanta had been strength ened for completion of their w’ork on the Mary Phagan murder case, b it Tobie said Lehon merely stopped over to visit him. He was on his way to another city. Tobie said, and his stav in Atlanta had no connection with tho Phagan investigation. MOTHER'S FRIEND IN EVER! HOME!
