Mrs. White Can Not Identify Him. Suspicion in the Phagan case was Tuesday morning turned full-flare upon James Conley, the negro whose unexpected asser tion last week that he had written the notes found beside the body of Mary Phagan, at the dictation of Leo M. Frank, was followed by a speedy indictment of the pencil factory superintendent. In the opinion of E. F. Holloway, timekeeper and foreman in the factory, Conley is the guilty man. Careful study of the negro's story has revealed many absurdi ties in its structure, wherein evidences of childish cunning are rife in an effort to throw the blame onto Frank. It is this which has served to bring the deed to Conley's door. However, Mrs. Arthur White, wife of a machinist at the fac tory, who testified that she saw a negro lurking in the building between 12 noon and 2 o'clock on the afternoon of the murder, denied the published report in an afternoon paper that she had identified Conley as the one. Mrs. White stated Tuesday morn ing that she had secured only a glimpse of the man. It may have been Conley, or another negro. Mrs. White was asked to pick Conley out of a crowd of twelve negroes some time ago, but her identification was a second choice. The police, in spite of bending every effort to show that Frank is guilty, therefore, have resort ed to a dissection of Conley’s story. One of its weakest links, they believe, is the negro’s quo tation of Frank's statement to him “Why should I hang?” That the superintendent should place this confidence in the negro sweeper appears absurd. Another damaging point against Conley lies in the declaration of Hol loway, timekeeper of the factory, that the negro had appeared for duty in toxicated on several occasions; that hie duties as sweeper brought him in contact with the girls, who feared him. *• Where Was Conley? According to Conley’s story, he was on Peters Street from 10 o’clock until 2 in the afternoon of the murder. Police investigation of this has failed o prove the statement. Conley ad mits that he can not remember any one whom he saw during that time to bear up his statement. From 2 o'clock until 6 Conley was at his home. This has been proven. Conley declares that from 6 until 8 o'clock that night he jas down town; this aiso lias mot n established. Conley Mates he 'tayed there the remaindet of the night. According to the new theory of Conley’s implication, the negro wrote the notes on Saturday instead of Fri day, as he claims, and not on any body’s dictation. It is further argued that, in order to ingratiate himself with the law. he made his confession when he thought that the case against Frank was clinched—that his story was the product of his own imagina tion. Conley's delay in making this con fession until Frank’s indictment seemed likely is another link against him. a His detailed account of the incident of the note writing, in which he even went so far as to attempt a quotation of what Frank said to him, shows premeditation on the negro's part, It is argued, and further that the story was conceived by Conley while he was in prison. However, the i/’gro s child ish brain was not capable of making it strong enough to withstand rigid investigation. E. F.

We had no trouble with him for about two months. Then Jim got drunk. He had been running the elevator and we were afraid to trust him afterward.

MARQUETTE, MICH., May 27.-* Colonel Theodore Roosevelt to-day took the stand in his suit against George Newett, editor of The lsh- peming Iron Ore. Colonel Roosevelt denied emphatically that he ever drank intoxicating liquors to excess as charged in the editorial that re sulted in his $i0,000 libel suit. He said he did not drink beer or whisky, except under the direction of a doctor, but admitted that he some times drank light wines. He related briefly his career up to the time the editorial from The Iron Ore w’as brought to him as he lay in a hospital in Chicago, after hav ing been wounded by a would-be as sassin in Milwaukee. Says Editorial Angered Him. ‘I was/very indignant,’’ said the colonel, "w’hen the editorial Was shown me." The former President mounted the stand after a stormy few minutes dur ing which Attorney Pound, represent ing the plaintiff, was interrupted fre quently by Attorney Belden while making his opening statement. At torney Belden, Newett's counsel, de clined to make his statement until after the testimony was taken. Colonel Roosevelt took the stand at 9:30 o’clock this morning. Replying to questions regarding his life and career, he said he was born in New York City, completed his stu dies at Harvard in 1880, was elected to the New York Legislature in 1881, appointed New’ York civil service commissioner in 1887, police commis sioner of New York City in 1890, elected Lieutenant Governor in 1894, resigning in 1897 to become lieutenant colonel of the Rough Riders in the Spanish-Ameriean war, being pro moted to colonel after the battle of Santiago. Tells of War Service. Strenuous objection was made by the defense to Roosevelt's replies re garding the number of times he was under fire in the Spanish-Ameriean war, but the court overruled them and the former President continued his story, declaring he was under fire many times, more particularly at San Juan Hill. He told of his election as Governor of New’ York in 1898; as Vice Presi dent of the United States in 1900; his succession to the White House in 1901 w’hen President McKinley was assas sinated, and his election to the Presi dency in 1904. Colonel Roosevelt then testified as fol lows; Q. What did you do on the expira tion of your term in 1909?—A. I went to Africa as special curator for the Smithsonian Institution and spent sev eral months there in research work. Re turning home, I became connected with the “Outlook.’’ Q. Where jvere you in October, 1912?— A. What part of that month? Cite an incident to remind me. Q. Have you ever seen this paper? — (The colonel was sho\\n a copy of The Ishpeming Iron Ore.) A.

In Qhicago. Q. Why were you there?—A. 1 had been shot. Q. In what city?—A. In Milwaukee. (Attorney Pound here introduced a copy of the paper in evidence and it was admitted without objection.) Q. How did you feel \4hen you read the editorial, “The Roosevelt Way?’*—A. I was very indignant. At this point Attorney Pound read the editorial, stating that action was based on the following: What Caused the Suit.

When a Jacksonville-New Orleans train pulled into Milton, 20 miles east of here, last night a mob of 75 men met the train and demanded S. W. Green, of New Orleans, chancellor of the negro Knights of Pythias, who was occupying a Pullman drawing room. He was only saved by the in terference of Sheriff Harvell and dep uties, of Santa Rosa County. Green bought a Pullman ticket from Jacksonville to New Orleans. Sev eral mobs met the train along the route before it reached Milton, but did not find him. At Milton. Green, see ing the mob, attempted to escape. Green is now in jail at Milton for safe keeping and charged with vio lating the “jim crow" law. He barely escaped a mob at De- Funiak on May 18 while going from New’ Orleans to Jacksonville.
