Chief of Police Beavers and Chief of Detectives Lanford both
stated emphatically Monday that they intended to go to the full
limit of the law in making Thomas B. Felder prove his charges of
graft in the police department.
Both Beavers and Lanford will take the matter before the
Grand Jury, and they will take other action in the courts against
Felder forthwith.
Chief Beavers shortly before noon held a conference with City
Attorney Mayson, after which he announced that he would take
the whole matter of alleged attempted bribery and “conspiracy
against him” before the Grand Jury next Friday.
The chief was advised by the City Attorney that this was the
proper course to pursue. He declined to specifically name all of
those who will be involved, remarking that he will lay all of his
evidence before the grand jurors and ask indictments.
They do not intend to let Felder’s statements go with a sim
ple newspaper denial made by them. They intend to have a thor
ough investigaton, and they intend further to make Felder come
forward with his evidence or take tile consequences; and the con
sequences, they intend, shall be the fullest penalty that the law
can inflict upon him.
SAY THEY WILL BARE “SECRETS.”
Both Beavers and Lanford have determined to go at the mat
ter systematically, thoroughly and in a legal way; and they intend
that the investigations before the Grand Jury and in the courts
will lay bare all the “secrets” that Felder is alleged to have of
bribery and graft in the police department; and also make public
the reasons Mayor Woodward has in the attempt to restore the
restricted vice district in Atlanta.
It is regarded as certain that Felder is eliminated entirely
from the Pliagan case. It had been believed that he really was
in the employ of the Frank defense up to the time that he began
to bombard the public with statements against Frank and went
on record in saying he believed in the guilt of Frank.
In making this statement, saying he believed in the guilt of
Frank, he takes the same position as that of Lanford and Beavers,
who also are convinced of Frank’s guilt.
CAN’T APPEAR FOR FRANK.
Felder, therefore, can not appear as an attorney for Frank,
nor is he wanted by the prosecution as an attorney to aid in pros
ecuting the case. It would seem, therefore, that he has no stand
ing in the Phagan matter at all.
Both Beavers and Lanford state positively that the evidence
collected by the police department in the Phagan case points to
Frank’s guilt, and that all the evidence collected by the Burns
Agency and the Pinkerton Agency simply confirm that belief.
They add that no new evidence, not already secured by the
city detectives, was produced by either Burns or the Pinkerton
men.
Mayor Woodward to-day issued a statement denying Chief
Beavers’ assertion that he was eager for the restoration of the
restricted district, and declaring that if Beavers and Chief Lan
ford framed the dictograph plot they were unfit to hold office,
and should be ousted.
Mayor Eager to Bring Back

another or turn State’s evidence.
When I heard of this deal that Mr,
Felder was trying: to make in the
Phagan case T told Chief Lanford to
confer with Solicitor Dorsey and get
his advice in the matter, as I did
not want anything done that was not
perfectly legitimate.
"This he did, and G. C. February,
who is a trusted man in the detective
department, was instructed to carry
out the deal with him.
"It appears that Mr. Felder has
been associated with this man Col-
yar for a long time and certainly
should know what manner of man he
is. If he knew him to be a crook,
why did he enter into a deal of this
sort with him, if he wanted to do
the straight thing?

Car Service Before
Commission Tuesday
The matter of better street car
service for Atlanta will be taken up
by the Georgia Railroad Commission
Tuesday in executive session.
The commission may be in session
all day. With them will be officials
of the Georgia Railway and Electric
Company. President Arkwright, of
the company, has a plan by which the
service may be improved. This will
be considered in detail.
Improvement of street car service
in rush hours is the demand the
commission is making upon the com
pany, charging that present sched
ules tie inadequate.
Chief of Police James L. Beavers
issued a statement Monday forenoon
defying his accusers to prove that he
had been guilty of any act of moral
turpitude as Chief of Police or as a
citizen.
He characterized th-.t attack by
Colonel Thomas B Felder merely as
an effort to detract attention from
his own (Felder’s) actions.
Referring to A. 3. Colyar, in hh
sweeping denial of the charges that
have been made against the polio*'
department, he made the pertinent
observation, that it many times re
quired a crook to turn up another
crook."
“I never heard of A. S. Colyar, Jr.,
until this thing came up. He may
be a crook, as far as I know. It
seems that Mr. Felder has known
for a long time that it is no unccm-

Following a rigid third degree late
Monday afternoon Chief of Detectives
Newport A. Lanford announced that
the negro, Jame* Conley, was weak
ening in his statement that he wrote
the "murder notes" found near the
dead body of Mary Phagan.
Chief of Detectives Lanford was
given two papers Monday a£pusing
friends of Leo M. Frank of attempt
ing to bribe a man and a woman to
swear that they saw Mary Phagan
at 10:30 Saturday night, April 26. at
a soda fountain at Marietta and For
syth Streets.
These papers were given Lanford
J by A. S. Colyar, whose entrance into
th^/Phagan case has been marked by
one sensation after another. Colyar
told Lanford that the papers were
copies of sworn affidavits and that
he had the original® which he would
produce at the proper time. The
copies are not signed.
Haas Denies Charge.
Emphatic denial that he had in any
manner resorted to bribery in behalf
of Frank was made by Herbert Haas,
well-known Atlanta attorney and
friend of the pencil factory superin
tendent. Mr. Haas further declared
that any intimation that he had
sought to bribe anyone was absolute
ly false. /
Two Affidavits Alleged.
Colyar said that one of the affida
vits was signed by the woman It was
sought to bribe and the other by the
man. a traveling salesman. Five
hundred dollars each is said by the
alleged copies of the affidavits to have
been offered to the man and the
woman for their testimony.
Colyar alleges that the woman was
brought here from Birmingham with
the intention of inducing her to swear
to the statement that she saw' Mary
Phagan late Saturday night. He said
that he knew' where she was at the
present time, although the friends of
Frank thought that she had left the
city.
Another report of attempted bribery
was submitted to Chief Lanford o.v
Will Henson, of 12 Leonard Street.
Henson told Lanford that ho had
been Informed by Mrs. Edmondson,
mother of little Monteen Stovar, of
175 South Forsyth Street, that a man
had come to her house and asked how
much she (Mrs. Edmondson) would
take to keep Monteen out of town
until after the trial had concluded.
Swore Frank Wasn’t in Office.
Monteen Stover is the girl who is
reported to have gone to the factory
at 12:05 o’clock Saturday afternoon
and to have been unable to find
Frank in his office, although he swore
he was there all the time from the
moment that Mary Phagan left his
office until Lemmie Quinn is said io
have entered at about 12:20.
After hearing the report, made to
Chief Lanford, that an offer had been
made to her to keep her daughter,
Monteen Stover, out of Atlanta till
after the trial of Frank. Mrs. Ed
mondson dictated a denial to a Geor
gian reporter. H«*r statement fol
lows:
Mrs. Fomby Not at Home.
"No. there has been nothing like
that at all. There has been no offer
of money, or anything else, for my
daughter to leave Atlanta. There has
been noihing but Just her little testi
mony you saw in the papers, and no
improper offers have been made to
either me or her."
The detectives also are working »n I
reports that Mrs. Mima Fomby, of
400 Piedmont Avenue, the woman
who reported that Frank had called
her up several times By phone vt
Saturday night, has been approached
by several person? who have at
tempted to bribe her to alter the
statements contained in her affidavit.
Mrs. Fomby has not been seen at
her residence for two dava She ;s
said to be out of the city visiting
friends.
