Continued From Page 1. laudable explanation of how he killed the Phagan girl. Give Credence to Story. The detectives still held firmly lo their theory that the negro was the most important witness against Leo M. Prank, in the fare of the contra dictory stories and lies in which he had been trapped. They were strongly disposed to give full credence to Conley's second affi davit. although the negro's* sudden anxiety to talk after three weeks of silence and the maze of falsehood in which he was at once involved served suddenly to shift the responsibility for Mary Phagan’s death from Leo Frank to the sullen black man, in the judgment of many who have been fol lowing the evidence closely. Chief Lanford and Detective Harry Scott, of the Pinkertons, announced Thursday morning, however, that they regarded the second affidavit of Con ley as the final and conclusive piece of evidence needed in preparing a case* against Frank Rejected First Affidavit. Others who have weighed the evi-* dance carefully declare there are many more significant indications that Conley was the slayer than there are reasons to believe that Frank is guilty The detectives rejected the first af fidavit of Conley, in which he said Frank dictated Friday the notes that were found by the body of the slain giri Sunday morning on the ground that it was absurd and unbelievable to hold the theory that the murder was premeditated Yet they accept the second af fidavit, which indicatesidenticallv the same thing, in that Frank met Conlay at Nelson and For syth Streets before 11 o'clock Ssturday morning, April 26, be fore the crime was committed, and told the negro to wait for him, later taking Conley to the factory with him, where Conley says that he wrote the notes at Frank's direction. The negro in his second affidavit suggests no other motive that could have impelled Frank to aik him to come to the factory shortly before noon on Saturday. Conley says that Frank told him to wait secreted on the first floor until he heard a whistle. When he heard the whistle he says he went upstairs and Frank dictated the botes. Why Many Suspect Conley. All of this is inescapably sugg.'S live of premeditation on the part . f Frank, if Conley’s story is to he be lieved, but the theory of premedita tion has been scoffed at by everyone, including Chief Lanford and Harry Scott. In fact, it never seriously was con sidered by anyone, say those who are Inclined to believe the evidence against Conley greatly outweighs that against Frank The assertion is free ly made that it would he far easier to convict Conley, if the police were /no disposed, than it will be to cohviot Frank. Here are a few reasons ad vanced : When the factory superintendent ivas permitted to go before the Coro ner'* jury by his attorney, he an swered all the questions In a straight forward. unwavering manner, never Tne Georgian-American Pony Contest VOTE COUPON Hearst's Sunday American and Atlanta Georgian PONY CONTEST VOTE COUPON, THURSDAY, MAY 29, 1913 5 VOTES NOT GOOD AFTER JUNE 13, 1913.

When discovered at tlie factory, he was washing a shirt which he sought to hide from the person who had found him dut. He was taken into custody and gave his address as 92 Tattnall Street. | Investigation disclosed that Conley was lying and that he had not liv'd ] on Tattnall Street for months, his ac tual residence being 172 Rhode* Street. He was asked to write, and he told the officers he could not write a word. He refused to be inveigled Into mak ing an attempt at hand writing of any sort. He would not put a pencil to paper that the detectives might get a specimen of ills penmanship. For a long time they believed he was >o ignorant lie could not write his own name. Then they found some leases he had signed for watches and knew that lie had been lying again. Just as the Grand Jury was about to alt and it appeared likely that Frank would be Indicted, the negro broke hi* silence for the first time He told the detectives that it was lie who had written the notes, hut th«u he had written thorn at Frank's dicta tion on Friday, April 26. Frank had approached him in an aisle at tin* factory and had asked him to come into the office, he said. He remem bered that it was four minutes before 1 o’clock. That he had been at the factory Saturday he denied emphatically. Be tween 10 o’clock in the forenoon and 2 o’clock In the afternoon he had been on Peters Street, according to his story. The detectives ridiculed his story and continued examining Gradually he broke down under their question ing. and it was established that lie had been lying again and that he actually had been in the factory Sat urday, presumably at the very time the girl wa* murdered. This was the first time bis presence In the factory on Saturday had been known. Admitted Hiding in Plant. He had kept it a most profound secret up to the time ft was gouged out of him by the detective*. He weakened further and admitted that he had been hiding down on the first floor as persons went in and out. He described practically every per son that entered or left tin* factory between 12 and 1 o’clock. But he de clared that he did not see Mary I’lia gan when she came in the building Out of all who entered or left, the murdered girl and Lemmte Quinn ap peal- to be the only ones he missed seeing, according to his story. He explained this by saying that he must have fallen asleep for a lit tle while. He saw Miss Corinthia Hall and Mrs. Freeman leave a few min utes before 1 o’clock, but did not see Mary Phagan enter about five min utes' after the hour. Neither did he s«‘e Lemmle Quinn, who is said to have been at tlie factory about 12:15. If the negro’s final affidavit is taken as nearer the probable truth than his first, those who are acquainted with Frank are of the opinion that there are still most important questions to be answered convincingly. They arc these, assuming that Frank is guilty: • Why should a man of Frank’s In telligence-—a man who is highly edu cated and who has won a position of responsibility- virtually make a con fidant of another man. especially an ignorant negro, easily broken down by the third degree of the police sta tion ? •Why should a man of sense, if he wished to keep his crime undiscover ed. proclaim it to the negro, in his office by the question: ’Why should I hang?’ ” "Why should lie approach this ne gro more than an hour before this crime was committed? "Why Resort to Notes?” "Finally, why should a man of in telligence have recourse to notes at all when he would know they ulti mately would serve to fasten the crime on the guilty person rather than to divert suspicion?" If the detectives follow out their intention of using Conley as a ma terial witness, it is regarded as like ly that they will have difficulty in obtaining the acceptance of his affi davit and testimony in view of the many lies in which he has been trapped. The repudiation Of the first affidavit, even on the representation that he set the date originally on Fri day because <>f the fear that he would lie hanged if admitting he was in the factory Saturday, is thought to ren der the second affidavit practically worthless, so far as its legal weight is concerned. The fact that the detectives have corroborated Conley's description in his second affidavit of the persons he saw while lie said he was in hiding on the first floor only more firmly es tablishes in the judgment of many the fact that Conley was at the fac tory tlie afternoon of the murder and had as favorable an opportunity to attack and kill Mar> Phagan as l^o Frank had. The corroboration, in their opinion, does not add one jot to the possibil ity that Frank might have dictated the notes.

Leaving Carson & Treadwell’s of fice. Mr. Stevens said he was going to the ruins of his home. He first visited the Patterson undertaking es tablishment and arranged for the fu neral of his wife and daughter. Both bodies will be taken to Meansville, On., at 4 o'clock Friday morning, to be buried in the family lot. where j Mrs. Stevens’ father and mother both have been interred in the last two years. Lonnie Blevins, 17 years o]d, who says he left San Francisco for Tampa and from there came to Atlanta, is held at police headquarters to-day. He said he arrived in Atlanta last Friday. He was detained because he could not give a connected story. The police attach little significance to his arrest or his presence in Atlanta. Tells of Attempted Attack. An important clew, given Sheriff J. A. McCurdy, of DeKalb County, who is in charge of the Investigation, was revealed in the statement of a neigh bor to tho effect that a Mexican half- breed, formerly employed by Mrs Stevens, had attempted to attack Nellie Stevens some time ago This declaration was made by Mis? Josephine MoCaulay, 790 Glennwood Avenue, an intimate friend of both the slain mother and deyghter. Miss McCaul&y said that only a few days ago Mrs. Stevens had told her of shooting at the discharged halfbreed when he appeared at the eountr; home. Mrs. Stevens had said that she fired twice at the man. and that lie escaped into the clump of woods adjoining the house. Sheriff jtycCur- dy has ordered a country-wide search made for the halfbreed. Discovery Wednesday morning that Mr. Stevens had purchased an axe some days ago offers' a possible clew to the weapon used by the murderer in crushing the skulls of his victims. The axe is, so far, missing, though the ruins of the burned dwelling and surrounding vicinity have been care fully searched for it. Ax Apparently Used. The sharp, knifelike cut across the top of Nellie Stevens’ skull seems to bear out the theory that the murderer used the ax to slay his victims. Possibility that the weapon used by the murderer was thrown into the well near the house has lead Sheriff McCurdy to order the well dragged. Atlanta police and detective offi cials have Joined with the DeKalb force to solve the mystery. Detective Chief Lanford assigned Mounted Po liceman Hamilton, who was a close friend of the Stevens family, and Detective Rosser to work on the case. Sheriff McCurdy obtained this re inforcement Thursday morning when he held a conference with Lanford. A unique incident of the blaze which burned the Stevens home to ashes was revealed in the finding of fifty-seven chickens dead in a coop fifty feet away. The coop was not even scorched by the heat. That robbery was the motive of the murderer has been established by the disappearance of Jewelry and a large quantity oi money which Mrs. Stev ens was known to have had in the house at the time. Woman’s Jewels Missing. Neighbors stated that *virs. Stevens possessed a diamond ring valued at $400 and two gold watches. These are missing. Coupled with other theories as to tlie murder is one which shows the work that of two negroes who were said to have been seen driving away from the burning home at sunrise Wednesday morning. The men rode in a one-horse wagon, the body of which was filled with outs. Tracks of the horse were found on a spot near the ruins. In the immediate vicinity was discovered a small pile of fresh oats. Human footprints were found nearby. Despite the assertion that the ne groes drove away. Sheriff McCurdy’s men made a careful search of the woods surrounding the home, believ ing it highly probable that the mur derer might have hidden therein to watch the burning house, and will scour the woods again to-day. An other theory is that he might have been wounded by Mrs. Stevens before he killed her. and had been forced to drag himself to the w'oods for escape. That the man may be lying there now is a possibility expressed by the police. The shell found in the shot gun used l>> Mrs. Stevens was found to have been discharged. Sister Believes Son Innocent. In a darkened room in a little house at 33 Dalney Street, with a physician in almost constant attendance, lies a woman prostrated by grief. Absolute quiet has been ordered by the doctor, and the anguish tears at her heart in a silence hroken only by her own sobs and the hushed patter of childish footsteps as her children play quietly about the house. She is Mrs. Pearl Hartley, sister of Mrs. Sarah C. Stevens, whove charred I body was found lying beside that of her adopted daughter in the smoking ruins of their farm home seven miles (tom Atlanta.

The twenty-third annual reunion of the Confederate Veterans closed to day with the veterans’ parade, in which the old soldiers of the South marched under the tattered battle flags of halt a century ago and under the Stars and Stripes of a reunited country.

Mrs. Hartley is seeing in the darkness of her room the terrible happenings of that night of horror. Mrs. Hartley’s* only surcease from suffering came for a few moments late Wednesday afternoon, when, un der the influence of opiates adminis tered by her physician, she recovered sufficiently to talk to a Georgian re porter. Mrs. Hartley sobbed audibly throughout the interview, and her eyes, red with weeping and reflecting the anguish that tore at her heart, emphasized her words as she cried for vengeance on the murderer. "Why do they always murder wom en?” .**he cried. "It is terrible. Little girls are murdered when they go onto the street, and now a woman is not safe even in her own home." Faints at News. The notifying of Mrs. Hartley of the death of her sister and niece formed one of the most dramatic and pathetic incidents of the entire trag edy. She was downtown Wednesday morning shopping, when word came to her home on Dalnev Street that her sister and niece had been murdered. Mrs. Lena Thompson .a neighbor, of 24 Dalney Street, volunteered to go downtown and find Mrs*. Hartley and tell her the sad news. After a search of an hour Mrs. Thompson found Mrs. Hartley in the Kress store on Whitehall Street. As she stood trying to locate the sister of the murdered woman in the crowd of shoppers Mrs. Hartley, warned by in tuition that something was* wrong, pushed through the crowd and hur ried to Mrs. Thompson. VWhat is it?" she cried. "What’s the matter?” Mrs. Thompson, seeking to break the news gently, told her that her sis ter’s home had burned down and that she had been badly injured. "it's worse than that." Mrs. Hartley cried. "1 feel it! 1 know It i« worse than that!” She screamed and fainted in the arms of Mrs. Thompson. She was soon revived and taken to her home. Mrs. Thompson endeavored to calm her on the trip on the street car with the assurance that everything was all right. As Mrs. Hartley entered her yard, one of her little daughters ran out of the house, tears streaming down her "Oh. mamma." she cried.

Mrs. Hartley fell to the ground in a swoon. She was picked up by Mrs. Thompson and members of her family and carried into the house. A physician was called and administered opiates. Un der the influence of the medicine site was able to sit up In bed for a few moments late in the afternoon, but collapsed a(?aln when she learned that her nephew, the non of the murdered woman, was being sought by the po lice as the murderer of his mother. Belieyes Boy Innocent. Mrs. Hartley refused to believe the boy could he capable of so diabolical a crime. "He may have been a bad boy,” she said, "but I can not believe he would kill his mother and sister. There must be some mistake.” Mrs. Hartley advanced the theory that the murder may have been com mitted by some person with robbery as the motive. Mrs. Stevens was an energetic business woman, and up to the time she moved to her farm had been engaged extensively in build ing operations, mostly in East Atlan ta She had a number of men In her employ, and Mrs. Hartley said she often kept a considerable sum of money in her home. She said she had known her sister to have as much as $500 in her house at one time. Less than a week ago, she said, Mrs. Stevens wrote to her that she was coming to Atlanta to sell some of her property. It can not be learned that she banked the proceeds of this sale, and Mrs. Hartley’s theory is that she took the money home with her; that this fact became known to some one, and that she was murdered arid the house fired for purposes of robbery. 1'p to about six months ago Mra.
