" V' '-* -p*—»nH ■■*'**-^ N THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS, / Anxious to See if Conley Will Stick to Latest Confession Under Dramatic Test. Continued From Pege 1. a myetery no longer—thte negro with stood every attempt to shake the re markable story he unfolded to the detectives In the startling confession affidavit and re-enacted at the scene of the crime Itself. Sticks Close to 8tory. Like an unwinding panorama, he laid before hlo questioners in the elo quent, if often a'.most Incoherent, Jar gon of Decatur Street the shifting soenea In the grim tragedy which reached Its great climax Friday, but In which the greatest battle is yet to be fought In the courts of Fulton County. One thing is certain: Those who have thought that it will be easy for a skillful lawyer to tear the negro's story Into tatters must revise their Judgment. From careful rehearsal, studied drilling or the indelible im pression of ghastly tragedy, the pris oner has learned his lesson well. From whatever angle he is attacked he tells the same narrative. Under cajolery or abuse he is unchanged. *T waited and waited, boss," he said. “1 thought Mr. Frank would sure see ma I thought maybe we could have a talk and maybe everything would be all right, but he never would see me. I tried once and I tried twice and I tried again, but Mr. Frank never would see me. So, I guessed it was Just about time for me to tell the truth. It looked like Mr. Frank couldn't get out of It after all, and It was all up, so I told the truth." Looks Little Like Novelist, A shiny-skinned, close-cropped, thick-chested, low-browed negro is Jim Conley—with eyes smiling or sin ister as Ills mood changes—ltke a thousand and one other negroes that ■'make faithful servants or troublesome prisoners as their footsteps happen to fall, and if the story he tells is the product of his imagination he belies appearances. It may be he has learned his tale as a child learns a fairy story until It sees the goblins as It plays in the twilight. It may be that constant turning over of them in his mind as he lay in r, police cell for three weeks, that constant repetition has made the details come readily to his lips. The lesson is learned. There is no doubt of that. “Jim, why did you write the notes?” he was asked. “Didn’t it strike you that 'long tall black negro,' would be taken to mean you?" "Yes, sir,” said Conley, readily. "It did and I tole Mr. Frank so. I said. ‘Look here. Mr. Frank, they're going to think that means me.’ But Mr. Frank said he Just wanted it to send to his mother, so his mother wouldn't think he done it, and he told-me he had powerful wealthy folks in Brook lyn—that was the first time 1 ever heard he had rich folks up North at •11. I thought they all lived here— so I wrote what he told me." Frank Always Good to Him. Now this reply, as it is given, sounds incoherent and preposterous, but it is given Just as Conley gave it and no amount of questioning could change it. “How long did you know Mr. Frank?" was another question. "I guess I must a known Mr. Frank (Conley kept scrupulously to the “mis ter" throughout) for about two years. Yes, sir, he was always a good boss to me. There was never no trouble about my getting money If 1 needed It Yes, sir, Mr. Frank was always pretty good to me." "And now you're telling a story, Jltn, that may cost a good boss his life." "Well, I had to do U. That's all there was to It, I had to tell the truth. I waited and waited fob Mr. Frank to do something and when he didn’t 1 Just reckoned he couldn't and it was about all up.” Three distinct times during the questioning Conley let drop remarks that might truthfully be interpreted as Jubilation that another man was in as bad a plight as he. Shows Little Sorrow, Each time when the remark was called to his attention he protested that he had no feelings of malice against Frank and that he was . not eager to see him suffer. In spite of his protests, it was very plain that he l beheld with little sorrow the pre dicament of the man he accuses. The stumbling block of premedita tion Conley removed entirely. He ex plained without any apparent hesita tion that Frank had told him Friday that he should report Saturday to move some boxes of pencils that had been reposing on one shelf for about two years. He was absolutely certain that the killing was accidental. "Mr. Frank," said Conley, “never FREE, TO MORROW.

UNDERWOOD GAG CONLEY STAR HE WILL BE POT TO TEST Democrats Resent Effort to Bind Them Not to Enact Laws Leader Opposes. WASHINGTON, May 31.—Majority LMder Underwood’s control of the House will be put to a test Monday In the Democratic caucus. House Democrats to-day declared that, while Underwood was able to apply the “gag” when the tariff bill was being put through, It was not at all cer tain he would be able to do so this time. Underwood proposes, it was learned, to have the caucus pass a resolution binding all Democratic members to refrain from enacting any legislation during the present session except a brief presentation which Underwood will specify'. The resolution will set forth that there be no legislation except the final enactment of the tariff bill Into law, passage of a banking and currency bill, the passage of a deficiency ap propriation bill. If the Underwood resolution is adopted all kinds of private bills In which many new members are Inter ested will be barred from considera tion. Tt was snld the resolution probably will be adopted. Hunt Relatives of Drowned Dam Man The police department Is endeavor ing to loq&te relatives of B. Powell, a cofferdam man who was drowned near Augusta. He is said to have rela tives in the meat business in Atlanta, but so far they have not been located. A telegram received by Chief Beav ers from the J. G. White Engineering Company, at Augusta, told of Powell’s death, and requested that his people be notified. They stated that the man was in their employ In the capacity of cofferdam man. Details of the drowning were not given. McGovern Fails to Oust State Officer MADISON, WIS., May 81.—That Governor Francis E. McGovern had no right to remove Herman Eckern, State Insurance commissioner, was the ruling to-day of the State Su preme Court. McGovern ousted Eckern for perni cious political activity on the allega tion that he had been active in en deavoring to aid a LaFollette man for the Speakership of the House in a race against a “Bull Moosvr." Eckern barricaded himself In his office for some days following the ef fort of McGovern to remove him. meant to kill that girl. No, sir, he never had no Idea like that. When he come running to me and said. ‘Jim want to make some money quick.’ and I said yes, he said ‘I picked up a girl back there and let her fall and her head hit against something.’ and he told me to get a cloth, and I ran back and I looked down and i saw a girl lying on the floor, all still, and her head was cut, and I hollered, 'Why, Mr. Frank, this girl’s dead.”' Clings Close to Detail*. The rest of this chapter of the heartbreaking story has been told and retold since The Georgian presented Conley’s affidavit. The negro clung tenaciously to the details as he gave them to the detectives. He added that he had heard no scream, but accounted for that by the distance he was from the scene of the killing, according to his story—sev eral hundred feet, he thought. He declared that a piece of the girl’s skirt had been torn away. Cer tain grim questions were put to him along lines which the detectives have Indicated they will take. The replies given hesitatingly and with apparent unwillingness, were sinister and un mentionable. but they will play a for bidding part in the trial of Frank. Conley asserted that he could not explain the torn-away staple on the buck door * n the basement. He as serted also that he had not put the death notes beside the body. FOR PHYSICAL EXHAUSTION Take Horaford'a Add Phosphate Especially recommended for physical and men tal eihauMlon. nervousness and weak dtftsuon. Ad*. In all the grim annals of Atlanta’s criminal history an Illiterate negro, Jim Conley, stands out to-day the principal figure in one of the most remarkable and dramatically impres sive "third degrees” ever administer ed by the city police. A chief of police, ordinarily stolid and unmoved, and chief of detectives and members of hl« force, a Pinker ton operative—all men in daily touch with every sort of crime and evil— hung with tensest Interest on each word as it came from the lips of the negro, and watched, as wide-eyed as any tyro in man-hunting, the negro’s every move as he re-enacted Friday afternoon what he steadfastly assert ed was his part in the ghastly Mary Phagan tragedy. Factory Men Look On. Dumb under the spell of the drama In which Conley played a triple role— first In his own personality, then as Deo M. Frank, and, finally, as the young girl victim—two employees of the factory listened to the damning accusations that unconcernedly, al most glibly, were made against their superintendent. They were Herbert Schiff, chief clerk, and E. F. Hollo- day, the timekeeper. Both had reckoned Frank Innocent. They had said many times that he could not have committed the shock ing deed. More likely, they had de clared, It was the. negro himself. Yet here they were the spectators of a grewsome performance in which Frank was represented as nervous and shaking and half in a panic as he directed the carrying of Mary Phagan’s limp and lifeless body to the elevator on the second floor of the factory and down into the dark and dirt-strewn basement. Theatric in Its Appeal. . Every incident and every clrcun* stance added to the theatric and powerful appeal as Conley duplicated detail by detail the movements he said were made that fatal afternoon of April 26. No stagery could have been more Impressive with weeks of planning by the detectives. The sin lster, gray-black factory. Itself, threw a spell of silence upon the little group of detectives and police as they en tered the forbidding doorway. A score of girls, a number of them of Just about the age of Mary Pha gan, were just inside the door when the automobile of Chief Beavers, Its curtains tightly drawn, dashed up to j the front of the building during the noon hour. Their chatter and laugh ter instantly was stilled. It had been more than a month since their young companion had been taken from them by a mysterious crime and they had been able to forget some of its tragic details, but now the spectacle of a stern blue-coated officer, a squad of keen-eyed detectives and a shackled black man brought back the tragedy In all its first horror. Young Girls Shudder. Some of the girls, pitifully young and helpless looking, pressed back against the wall and stood there with distended eyes and afrighted manner as the men brushed past and mounted to the second floor. Several of the older girls gave hysterical little laughs which died in their throats when they noted the dead stillness that marked the passage of the officers and their prisoner. Then followed during the very hour in which Mary Phagan is believed to have met her death on April 26 a reproduction of all that Conley de dared took place after he heard the two low whistles with which Frank was to signal him. With the detectives following him closely and clustering about him each time he stopped tc make an explanation, the negro start ed at the point he said he first saw the dead body and went through the building exactly as he claimed he did on ’.he afternoon he bore the tragic burden to the elevator, down to the basement and then to the dark cor ner near the furnace. Do©s Not Break Down. If the detectives hoped that the plan of bringing Conley right to the scene of the tragedy would break him down and for.’e him to confess that it was he alone, and not Frank, who com mitted the crime, they were disap pointed. The negro proved himself either a most consummate actor or a man who finally was telling the truth. He was letter perfect, so far as a person could be in a tragedy of the sort. He never faltered nor hesitated. Yet he reproduced in startling detail every movement and every conversation of importance which he said took placa while the body of Marv Phagan was being hurried to *he basement. Conley did not pretend too great a With the thermometer climbing steadily up Into the nineties, all At lanta sweltered and groaned In the torrid blasts of the hottest day of the year Saturday. And the end is not yet. The weather man predicted at noon that Sunday will be fully as hot as Saturday, and the chances are very good for even greater heat. Local weather officials will not be surprised, they say, If the thermometer on Sun day reaches the highest point of the year. It will undoubtedly reach 90 and may go to 92 or 96. No rain la In sight for several days, the weather man says. A careful scanning of the heavens failed to dis close even the slightest bit of a rain bearing cloud. The weather man says, however that relief In the shape of showers may come Monday or Tues day, atmospherical conditions being propitious for thunderstorms. Saturday broke all weather records for 1913. At 7 o'clock Saturday morn ing the official thermometer at the weather bureau registered 74. This Is an unusual height for the mercury to reach at that hour. At noon the mercury had climbed into the eighties, and was hovering around the 88 mark, the highest point reached yes terday. At 1 o'clock the mercury passed 88, and was climbing steadily. That It would register 90 degrees or higher by 3 o'clock was considered certain by the weather man. u : - Sunday Speaker to Talk on Fire of Hell W. M. Wisdom, of New York, will deliver a lecture Sunday afternoon at 3 o’clock at the Cable concert hall on "The Love of God and the Fire of Hell." The unwritten but dominant creed of to-day, "Whatever worshipper bends before The Best he knows, and walks true to the purest light that shine before him, has access to the highest blessings of heaven,” will be discussed. Mr. Wisdom will speak under the auspices of the I. B. S. A. 1 ' Mg Red Men Establish Fayetteville Lodge A targe party of Atlanta Red Men, under the leadership of Past Sachem C. L. Wooddall, visited Fayetteville Saturday for the purpose of Insti tuting a new lodge of Red Men. I. P.

Occasionally when he was asked a question he woul-t reply: "I don’t know, boss, I don’t know." He did not assume to quote Frank ver batim in many instances. If he was lying, it was a most amazing fabri cation he built up. He told more than enough to demonstrate conclusively that he knew all about the disposal of the body. He told enough of his alleged conversations with Frank to indicate strongly that they actually took place, but he did not go into such a wealth of detail as to give the im pression that his whole story was a mass of lies so far as Frank's connec tion with the affair was concerned. However, Conley’s credibility will be a matter for the court to decide. Several times before he has related stories of his movements the day of the crime and has afterward admitted them false or imperfect. Displays Little Emotion. Conley displayed little or no emo tion in his remarkable recital. Rath er than detracting from the dramatic impression, this accentuated it. He impersonated the actors in the black tragedy with such unconcern and ap parent fidelity to detail that the de tectives were forced to feel that they were witnessing an almost exact re production of what took place after Mary Phagan was killed the after noon of April 26. Employees Show Curiosity. As the elevator passed down with its* load of detectives, a large crowd of the factory employees could be seen gathered in the corridors of the first floor eager to get a glimpse of what was going on. They peered through the openings in the elevator and after the officers and the negro had got to the bottom of the shaft and were making their way to the place the girl’s body was found by Newt Lee. one venturesome young fellow raised the trap door on the first floor and poked his head Into the dim light of the basement. “Get out of there and shut that door ” Chief Clerk Schiff shouted at him, and there were no more prying eyes directed at the strange proceed ings that were taking place. It was through this trap door that Conley said Frank made his way to the first floor after the body had been dis posed of. Left Indelible Picture. When the remarkable recital was ended, all who had gone through the building with the negro had an in delible picture graven on their minds. It might not have been what actually took place at the factory the fatal day. but it was most realistic and im pressive. ■ H mm wSm ijft; $k>: •> %.

LONDON, May 31.—Militant suf fragettes “posted” a bomb in the post- office at Lewisham, a suburb, early to-day, causing an explosion which destroyed a number of letters and packages.

This is the second time Mrs. Pankhurst has been released by Home Secretary McKenna since she was sentenced to three years last month.
