THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. MONDAY. MAY 26. 1913. 1AY0R SEEKS TO RESTORE VICE. J Beavers Hotly Attacks Woodward in a New Statement Defying His Foes. Continued From Page 1. Colyar. but I would have listened to any report or rumor in hunting fot the guilty party in a case like the Phagan mystery. It t}e.erps that M• Folder in his ramlfUationa through the press fried to get eloquent and a: tempted to toll about the Govern ment of Scotland and the conditions In Ireland, as if that had anything to do with the rase. He is simply try ing to attract attention away from what he has done. "A* for any evidence he claims to have about my moral turpitude as chief of police or as a citizen, I defy him or any one else to show it. If he is the good, loyal citizen that he claims to be. why did he not lay this evidence before the Police Commis sion He knows well enough that If he had anything damaging to th». police department he would have hurried to lay it before the proper- authorities. Raps Woodward. "1 see that Mr. Woodward says that he has nothing against me per sonally. Now. 1 don’t quite under stand his connection with the Felder- Colyar affair. He knew that Feb ruary was a trusted employee of the police department, and that if Feb ruary knew of any crookedness in the department Mr. Woodward should have forced him to divulge it in the proper way or seen that he was thrown out of the department. “If Febuary had known anything of the kind and not made it known, he would have been equally guilty. Mr. Woodward knows that in his fre quent talks with me since he has been Mayor there has hardly been a time that he did not bring up the question of the red light district. “He gave me to understand in # his Am talk with me that these women should be allowed to go bfeck to Man hattan Avenue, where they had pre viously plied* their nefarious trade.

"Mr. Woodward told no* the drat of the year that if my vice policy wac continued that the police department would soon be reeking with graft like the New York police departmen* I told him that I was not afraid of any graft in the police department, but that from what I had heard < er- taJn people In Atlanta, outside of the police department, had been receiving money from thin vice traffic* that vir tually amounted to graft and extor tion. “1 am willing and ready to compare my past record, both as a citizen and an official, with that of Mr. Woodward and leave the public to judge between us as to which is tn the right and which in the wrong.” Felder Prepares Reply to Beavers. t'olonel Thomas B Felder declined this morning to answer the new statement of Chief Beavers, saving all his statements hereafter wou?d be written “I have decided,” said Colonel Fel der. “to make no more Ktatements ex cept In writing.

One of the best known women of the American stage Is writing a series of articles on the preserva tion of beauty. She attaches great Importance to keeping the liver active at all times, and she is right. Neither good looks nor hap piness will stay long with any man or woman who lets the liver get lazy and sluggish. It is not always safe to take cal omel,, the old liver remedy. Doc tors agree that it is a very uncer tain drug. But any dealer or drug store has a remedy for sale that they guarantee to take the place of calomel absolutely, and still be harmless, causing no restriction of habit or diet. This remedy is Dodson's Diver Tone. Dodson's Diver Tone is a pleas ant-tasting vegetable liquid, but it starts the liver gently and surely and relieves constipation and bil iousness so promptly that it has become a dependable remedy in thousands of homes in the United States. There are scores of fami lies in this vicinity who will not be without it in the house and who would not think of starting on a trip without a bottle of it. All druggists have sold »<> much Dodson's Liver Tone that they are convinced of its merit and will give any person his 50 cents back who buys a bottle and does not find that it takes the place of cal omel to perfection. Mayor Gives Out Sizzling Reply to Chief Beavers Mayor James O. Woodward Monday gave out a sizzling Interview- In reply to Police Chief Beavers’ accusations, w-hich he concluded with this state ment : “If Beavers and Lanford authoriz'd February, 'a trusted man.' to go out and tell lies about corruption in the department in an effort to trap some, body, they are unworthy to hold the places they occupy, and the sooner they are put out the better It will be for the police department and the city. “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 w-anted to make it clear that he was vigorously op posed to public controveraies with heads of departments. He said it was not the way to run the city’s business, and 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 tc Beavers. “1 told him It would be reopened as a result of a public demand for the interests of society because of the scattered conditions of vice all over the city. ”1 have never placed a straw in the way of his vice crusade. When I have called him to m.v office to talk to him about it, it was to refer complaints f > him—complaints of bad conditions i, respectable sections. "One day w-hen he came to my offl e I referred to him a letter from a mother of little children who sa d there was an immoral place neat* h.»r home and that she had written :o Chief Heavers some ten days before and nothing had resulted from It. Explains Eva Clark Affair. “All I erer heard from the case was that the occupants of the bad house quieted down. "The Eva ('lark matter is very sim- p 1 She called n.e over the tele phone and t-aiu she. with her mother, wanted to move into a house near t h*' Grady Hospital and live respectablv. 1 laid the whole matter before Beavers just as she appealed to me. “I have called Heavers to task only with the view to netting him to clean up the streets so this city will be safe for respectable women "When February came to me with a tale about being able to get evi dence from the safe at the police station which would prove that Beav ers and Lanford w-ere protecting dis orderly houses and 'blind tigers’ 1 knew it was either true or he was lying, and I decided for the time, be ing to give him the benefit of the doubt and investigate. "If I had known that that visit to the Williams House would be the last time I would see him I w-ould have shown him up for the liar that he is. But in the interest of the pub lic I decided to give him sufficient leeway to get at the truth of the graft charges.” "Plenty of Room for Graft.” Then he paid his respects to Beav- ers and Lanford for thei*’ part in the plot. ”1 want to say it looks like there is plenty of room for graft," he- con tinued Where there is so much smoke there must be some fire. And I am just as anxious to get at the truth as 1, was the day they thought they were trapping me with a dicto graph. “Eliminating Colyar and Felder. I think the connection of the police heads with this affair casts a dirty reflection on them. it reveals them as unfit.’’ Chairman Carlos H. Mason Mon day declined to comment on the sit uation. lie said it might come before the Police Commission and that he would then have to act in the ca pacity. but he did not believe the commission would take it up. He did not fail, however, to declare his con fidence in the integrity of the heads of the police department and to say he thought the department was clean.

Blind Tiger Operator Escapes After Probably Fatally Wound ing George Blackstock "Hub" Talley, a notorious police character, shot and probably fatally j wounded George Blackcock, known i j as "Grip,” ju*t before noon Monday, | and made hi* escape before police of ficers arrived. The shooting took place on the side walk in front of !J24 Peters Street, near the place where "Hub” Taliev j and his brother, Boyce Talley, lived. I Talley was in his shirt sleeves. After shooting Blackstock. he went to his room and put on his coat, returned to Peter** Htreet and walked away. Information secured by John West, special call officer, and Eugene < ’oker, detective, who went to the scene, tended to show the shooting followed a (»ha rge of larceny made by Black- stock against Talley. Blackstock was said to have told Boyce Talley, who is a horse trader, that ‘Hub'’ stole some whisky out of his. Boyce's, room. The two were on Peters' Street. Talley Fires One Shot. Boyce told “Hub,” and the latter, incensed, hurried down to Peters Street before Blackstock left and asked him if he had made the accusa tion. Blackstock said, "Yes,’’ and Tal ley drew his revolver and fired one shot* which found lodgment just above Blackstoek's heart. Blackstock Is a stonemason, living at H6 (Tumley Street. He was hur ried to Grady Hospital, where his con dition was pronounced precarious. Hi refused to make any statement what ever regarding the shooting. Blackstock is well known person ally to police officials, but actual points in his career are difficult to obtain. 42 Cases Against Him. Hub” Talley has one of the longest police records* ever made in Atlanta. Dozens times he has been arrested for liquor selling, his persistence in violating the liquor laws having gained for him the, sobriquet of “The Blind Tiger King.” He has figured in numerous shoot ing escapades. Last year the Atlanta detective department compiled his record and found there had been 42 cases against him in two years. A week or two later a writ of lunacy was taken out against him and he was sent to the insane asylum at. Mil- ledgeville, from which he was later released on parole. When report was made to police headquarters that Talley had escaped telegrams were sent out, giving his description and the crime for which he is wanted.

SAY POLICE Chief of Detectives Newport Lan« ford Monday announced that the mystery of the Mary Phagan tragedy is solved, as nearly as is possible without the absolute, direct testimony of eyewitnesses, and expressed him self as perfectly satisfied with the evidence now in hand. Accompanying this statement comes the authoritative announce ment that the great strangling crime will be placed on Leo M. Frank, now under indictment on the charge of murder, and that Newt Lee, the sus pected negro night watchman of the National Pencil Factory, will not be indicted. Lee will be held in jail un til the trial as a material witness and will be placed on the stand to give evidence against the factory super intendent. Lee has completely been eliminated from the case as a suspect, and is now counted as one of the strongest witnesses against Frank. “There is not the slightest doubt of the innocence of Newt Lee,” said Chief Lanford. “I'm certain he has told all he knows of the death of Mary Phagan.” Can Hold Lee Indefinitely. No further action nor proceedings of any kind will be necessary to hold the night watchman for the. trial. He was ordered by the Coroner's jury held for investigation by the Grand Jury, and until the latter body either returns an indictment or a “no bill,” he can not be freed from jail. It is the plan of the State, It is un derstood, to defer action on his case by the Grand Jury until after the trial of Frank. He will then be released. The great advantage gained by the State in holding Lee *as a material witness is that he can be cross-ex amined when he goes on the stand. By this means ti e State can bring out every possible circumstance against Frank that has been related by the negro. Were he indicted as an accomplice, or on any other charge, and appear in court as a defendant, Lee wonll merely make such statement as 'v» chose and could no be cross-exam ined by either the State or the de fense. The refusal of the Grand Jury (o indict Lee is one of the shrewdest moves yet made by the prosecution. It came as a great surprise, as i- generally had been conceded that both Frank and Lee would be in dicted. either Jointly or Frank ; s principal and Lee as accessory. Lanford Is Satisfied. Chief Lanford, in declaring himself satisfied w*ith the status of the case, said that the real work of his de tectives is now over, ana that all that remains for them to do is to knit some of the circumstances together and strengthen a few of the weak point". He said the case was circumstantial, but felt sure the State would be able to convict Frank. He added: “With the evidence we now have we could convict Frank, with a rec ommendation to mercy, in ten min utes. This would mean a life term. It is going to be difficult in this case to impose the extreme penalty of the iaw, as so many people are opposed to capital punishment on circumstan tial evidence. The slaying of Mary Phagan. however, was straight mur der or noth ng and the State will de mand the limit. “While the evidence is purely cir cumstantial. still I'm 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, and brought abou much speculation. Detectives admit that they are skeptical of the negro’s confession cs they are unable to ret.- orci'.r* it wit a other circumstances. 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 accepted theory is* 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 be hanged. He will be put through another rigid ex amination in the office of detectives Monday as a test of his* truthfulness. He also 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. Just 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 c? Frank, is absolutely false In every de. 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 be called and all other essential details were agreed on. Contentions of State. The contention of the State, briefly outlined, will be this: First. That the murder of Mary Phagan was an “inside job;” that it was committed inside the fac tory, and by a person connected wi|h 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 had work ed but one day, Monday, in the week of the tragedy, and was not notified that the employees w-ould receive their money Friday after noon and that the factory would be closed Saturday, on account of Memorial Day; that she went to the factory alone at noon Satur- daj- 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 lark 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 Newt Lee to report for duty at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, and that when Lee arrived at the fac tory Frank told him to go away and have a good time and return at 6 o'clock. Frank appeared ner 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 he had used In binding her ha ids or feet In order that he might carry her more easily. Negro Not Accomolic*. Fiftn. That Frank left the fac tory shortly after 6 o’clock, ana that be called Newt Lee over the telephone shortly afterwards, ask ing if everything was all right — a thing he had never done before. Sixth Thai Newt Lee had ab- solute’y no connection with the Police Board Minority as Anxious to Overthrow Chairman as Beavers and Lanford. Well informed politicians declared Monday that any efforts to remove (’hlef of Police Beavers and Chief of Detectives Newport Lanford were doomed to failure because of the sup port of the two officers 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 days, ail 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. McEachern, Sev enth Ward; A. R. 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. R. Colcord, chairman of the Council Police Committee. The most illuminating fact in the whole situation is that the minority in the Police Commission is aft 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 th4s 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 he 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 Woodward and his followers likely would oppose them. They charge the police department is being run by a “ring.” The Mayor and his followers see a slight hope of victory through the fight over Beavers’ authority to name men for promotion. Privately, they charged that the Mason faction was dictating Beavers’ nominations, and when the vote was taken Commission ers Vernoy and Garner joined them. The result was a tie vote, and the issue has not yet been decided. But the general opinion is the change is not very significant. Part of Brain Gone, He Sues for $60,000 George M. Downs filed suit for $60,000 against the George A. Fuller Construction Company with the Su perior Court Monday for injuries he claims to have sustained April 24, when a brick fell from the eleventh story of the Winecoff Hotel and struck him on the head. Downs claims that, in the operation made necessary, a portion of his brain was taken out and he found himself paralyzed in the right arm. He said at the time of the accident he was 28 years old and making $45 weekly as foreman of steel construction on the hotel. AT ELECTRIC PARK.
