Lanford revealed
the warfare when
he declared that the fight being made
against him was backed by the gam
bling ring of Atlanta. C C. Jones
was named as the leader of the oppo
sition in this fight.
Beavers in commenting upon Hut
cheson’s charges, declared that they
were inspired by Thomas R, Felder,
with whose office Hutcheson is con
nected, and that the attack was not
therefore that of Hutcheson, hut of
Felder and his “gang”
Hutcheson, a young lawyer con
nected with the firm Felder, An
derson, Whitman & Dillon, wrote
an open letter to <’hlef of Po
lice Beavers, charging him with per
mitting unlawful houses to operate on
certain city streets and promising to
give addresses if the Chief asks per
sonally for them within three days.
Beavers to Ignore Attack.
Characterizing Carl Hutcheson as of
too little importance to warrant an
answer to his charges made against
the police force, Chief Reaver** de
clared that he would Ignore him al
together,
“1 don't t are to answer Hutcheson’s
attack.” said the police official.
“Hutcheson Is too small a fry to even
take notice of. An answer to him
would give him too much dignity. This
young man is in Felder’s office and is
merely being used as a tool of Fel
der and h!« gang. Felder prompted
him to make the statement that he
did. and so I will pay no attention to
H utcheson.
"This matter is going before the
Grand Jury, and not Carl Hutcheson.”
Regarded as Reply.
On Monday morning Chief Beavers
declared Attorney Thomas B. Felder
had r»o evidence of police cognizance
immoral resorts; that he never had
Klirfi any. and that ho was only bluffing
when he said he had. Requested to
reply, Colonel Felder announced he
would make no more statements ex
cept In writing, and that he had
nothing to say then.
A few- hours later Mr. Hutcheson, a
member of Colonel Felder's firm, is
sued the letter, which is regarded as
a semi-official reply from Colonel
Felder.
Mr. Hutcheson formerly was a
newspaper man Shortly after taking
up the practice of law he achieved
State-wide renown by conducting the
campaign of William Schley Howard,
w ho defeated Representative Leonidas*
Livingston and is now serving his
second term in Congress.
Following is Mr. Hutcheson’s open
letter to Chief J. L. Beavers:

L UTHER Z ROSSER, who is leading attorney of counsel
for the defense of Leo M. Frank, indicted for the murder
of Mary Phangan at the National Pencil factory.
The Georgian repeats its suggestion that the Grand Jury
MUST TAKE UP AND INVESTIGATE THOROUGHLY the
charges of graft and bribery that have beeh made in the news
papers during the past fiw days.
And the matter should not end with the Grand Jury. It
should be taken into a court of law,
Colonel Thomas B. Felder has made some accusations that
merit immediate attention.
If there is graft in the police department or bribery any
where, the public has a right to know about it; and if Colonel
Felder or anyone else can establish that, he will receive the
thanks of the entire community, and there will be a speedy
turning out of the guilty men.
The matter is too serious to begin and end in a newspaper
war.
The good name of the city is involved. The good name of
public servants is involved.
Trials in newspapers are never effective. They lead no
where. The public is still unconvinced.
Trials by judges and juries are final and conclusive.
THE PUBLIC WANTS FACTS.
There is no reason to believe that the charges against
Beavers are true. Even the bitterest enemies of Beavers admit
his honesty. He has made a good record. He is entitled to have
the charges against him examined by a judge and jury, so
that all the facts may be known.
Whether Beavers’ attitude is right in putting an end to
the segregated district is not an issue. The law does not permit
any choice in the matter. The law do^s not sanction a segre
gated district for the barter and sale of human beings and for
the enrichment of a few ringsters.
It is not improbable that a little more liberality in some of
the laws would be a good thing for the city and all concerned.
But the way to get that liberality is to change the present
statutes.
Beavers has no alternative but to enforce the law as he sees
it, and he has no alternative but to compel those who accuse his
department to go into court and try the case there instead of
in the columns of the newspapers.
STAND BY BEAVERS AND THE LAW!

Gamblers’ Plot,
Declares Lanford.
Chief of Detectives Newport A.
Lanford gave out a sensational state
ment Tuesday morning in which he
charged that the efforts to fix accusa
tions* of bribery and malfeasance upon
him were inspired by a “gambling
ring.’’ of which C. C. Jones was / the
head.
The cause of the fight against Lan
ford had been something of a mys
tery Beavers readily explained the
efforts to dispossess him from the of
fice of Chief of Police by his war on
vice In the city of Atlanta. Lanford’s
explanation reveals another angle of
the crusade against a wide-open town.
The gambling ring has been after
me ever since I was made head of the
detective department ten years ago. *
said Chief Lanford “No more had 1
declared relentless warfare upon all
forms of gambling in the city than I
was notified that the gambling inter
ests were out to ’get' me. Several
times it was reported to me that I
had been marked for an attack, and
once the gamblers succeeded in carry
ing out their threats.
That was five years ago I was
reduced from sergeant, which was the
designation of the head of the depart
ment then, to service in the ranks.
The gamblers were responsible for it.
They gloated for nine months. Then
I was raised to my former position
again, with the title of chief. Since
then I have continued my campaign
against them.
“They have been very bitter. They
have threatened me time and again.
Now they have brought the^e charges
against me.”

Col. Felder Still Probing
In the Phagan Case.
In the news columns of The Geor
gian yesterday it was 3aid that
Colonel Felder had been eliminated
from the Phagan case. Colonel Fel
der says this is not true, that he is
as deeply interested in solving the
mystery as ever, and that he is lend
ing every energy in that direction.
The further statement in The Geor
gian that Colonel Felder was be
lieved at one time to be interested in
<he defense of Frank was not in
tended to reflect in any way upon
the lawyer. It was simply the gos
sip of the street, given for what it
was worth. Colonel Felder’s. . own
statement that he is working sole
ly for the public good makes his po
sition perfectly clear, and everybody
in the city will hope that he will
continue actively in the case until
thq great mystery is disposed of.

INCINNATI
TWO FAST TRAINS
Lv. 6:45 AM., 5:10 PM.
C. W. Tobfe, chief criminal in
vestigator for the Burns Detective
Agency, formally withdrew from the
Phagan investigation Tuesday morn
ing. The calling off of the Burns
forces was announced by Dan P.
Lehon, superintendent of the South
ern branch, after Tobie had stated
explicitly that he would not withdraw
from the case.
Colonel Thomas B. Felder, who
brought the Burns detectives into the
Phagan case, would make no state
ment relative to their withdrawal, but
announced Qiat it did not mean *he
end of his investigation or connec
tion with the case.
Tobie made up his mind last Friday
to drop the Mary Phagan investiga
tion—90 he said Tuesday—but de
ferred action until Monday nighi,
when he announced his intention to
withdraw to Solicitor General Dor
sey.
Disgusted With “Fuss.”
Acute disgust at the “four or five
cornered fuss” raised by the Phagan
investigation was assigned by Tobie
as the cause. This disgust was su
perinduced by the direct charge and
general impression that the Burns
Agency was pretending to ferret out
the Phagan case, when in reality ts
purpose in Atlanta was to investigate
the police department.
Tobie said to-day that while he had
quit and was going to leave Atlanta,
still the withdrawal of the Burns
Agency need not be permanent.
“If certain features of this case ars
not developed, then there will be one,
and maybe tw F o, Burns men back here.
I will send them here, but they will
work in secret. There will be no
mo’-e public investigation.”
Tobie explained be believed Leo M.
Frank was guilty of the Phagan mur
der and that the “certain features"
meant additional clinching evidence
not yet published that will make
Frank’s conviction certain.
•How can any house have har
mony,” said Tobie. "when the old man
is fighting the old woman, and the
old woman is fighting the children,
and they are all fighting the hired
girl? That’s the shape this affair has
gotten into, only worse.
••We came here to investigate this
Phagan case, and for no other pur
pose. But the charge was made that
In reality we were investigating the
police department. . The way things
were shaped up the police could not
help believing that charge to be true.
Colonel Felder’s attitude bore that out,
so I decided last Friday to quit.”
“Do you mean. then, that you were
dissatisfied at Colonel Felder’s atti
tude?” was asked.
"We were dissatisfied with that parr
of it, yes,” was* Tobie s reply.
Tobie Himself Through.
Tobie reiterated he ended the inves
tigation himself. "1 called myself off,”
he said. “Dan S. Lehon. our Southern
superintendent, was close to Atlanta.
It was as near for him to pass
through here on his way back to New
Orleans as it was for him to go any
other way. I was in charge here, but,
as* you know, I do not belong to this
territory. As a pure formality and a
matter of courtesy, and because, I
knew he was coming here to visit his
w ife’s relatives. I sent him a message
Inviting him to confer with me. When
he gel here I told him as a courtesy
that I had decided to quit the case. He
approved it. Had 1 told him I would
continue, he would have approved
that, too. "
“This is the worst mix-up I ever
_aaw anywhere, at any time. It’s aw
ful. Everybody Is fighting everybody
else, and I am through with this four
or five cornered fracas, except that if
more Burns men are sent here I shall
send them here tend they will report
to me.” f *
Bribery Charges Denied.
Rumored attempts to bribe wit
nesses were given strong denial in
many circles, particularly by those
'whose names were connected by n -
mor withjjhe alleged bribery attempts.
( . c. Sears, superintendent of the
Atlanta branch of the Burn*, deled -
ive agency communicated to Chief of
Detectives Lanford the announcement
of the withdrawal of the Burns forces
from the Phagan case.
Chief Lanford authorized the fol
lowing statement on the departure of
Tobie:
"Tobie I believe, is straight and
honest. He was \ ictimized by Feld»r
I am convinced Mr. Tobie was work
ing toward the interest of those seea.
lng to clear the mystery.”
Praises Superintendent.
A girl employee of the pencil fac
tory has written the following state
ment, which upholds the working
conditions of the factory and cham
pions the character of the Imprisoned
superintendent:
"Nothing has ever been said of the
girls of the pencil factory until after
the terrible murder, but since then
there has been one continuous talk
just as if we were to blame. We are
just as anxious to see the guilty pun
ished as the rest of the public, and
we all loved Mary Phagan just as
much as we possibly could.
"If the public only would interest
ilself to look Into other factories and
stores they would find the girls in
the pencil factory are just as good
as any other working girls.
“It looks mighty hard that we have
to work in the place where our little
friend was so horribly murdered. But
we are only poor working girls, try
ing to make an honest living, and we
try not to think of the tragedy any
more than possible; and we have the
interest of the factory too much at
heart to desert in times of trouble.
"We all hope and-pray the guilty
will be punished and the innocent
given freedom, for we all think our
superintendent has a soul himself and
that he would not think of such a
thing, much less commit such a hor
rible crime.”
