Famous Rail Heads and Lawyers
Attend L, & N. Suit in the
Federal Court Here.
The Louisville and Nashville Rail
road Company’s fight against the en
forcement of the 2 4-cent fare or
dered by the Alabama Railroad Com
mission was reopened in the Federal
Court in Atlanta Tuesday morning.
Judge William 1. Brubb, of Birming
ham. is presiding in the case, while
Judge Don Pardee and Judge David I).
Shelby, of the Court of Appeals, are
sitting with him at his request. The
hearing is on the petition of the
railroad company for a permanent in
junction against enforcing the rate.
Court convened at 10 o'cloc k, but a
recess was taken shortly afterward
to allow counsel on both sides to in
spect affidavits filed by agreement,
and headway in the case is not ex
pected to be made until afternoon.
The hearing is expected to last three
or four days.
Notables Are in Attendance.
Among those who arrived in At
lanta this morning to attend the hear
ing is Milton H. Smith, president «*f
the Louisville and Nashville Railroad,
one of the most aggressive and pic
turesque of great railroad men of
America. With him are H. L. Stone,
genera! counse’: W. A. Colston, gen
eral solicitor, both from Louisville,
and former Congressman Sidney .).
Bowie, of Birmingham, special coun
sel for the Louisville and Nashville,
the man who has led the fight of th»*
railroad company during five years’
litigation.
Other officials of the railroad com
pany are W. A. Russell, general pas
senger traffic manager, and A. R.
Smith, third vice president, who is <n
direct charge of the passenger traliic

Noted Jurists for State.
Representing the State of Alabama
are Samuel D. Weakley, former Chic?
Justice of the Alabama Supreme
Court, and H. C. Selheimer, both from
Birmingham, who have been in charge
of the State’s case since the begin
ning of the litigation; Charles Hen
derson, president of the Alabama
Railroad Commission, and R. C.
Brlckell, Attorney General for Ala
bama
Alabama's fight for a lower passen
ger rate was started b> former Gov
ernor B. B. Comer. It brought on one
of the most sensational cases the
Federal Court has ever handled in the
South, and there was sharp conflict
between Governor Comer and Fed
eral Judge Jones and Milton H
Smith.
The railroad company's argument
was opened by Sidney J. Bowie, the
plea being made that the enforcement
of the 24-cent rate by the State
of Alabama, under orders of t’he Ala
bama Railroad Commission, is uncon-
stiutlonal in that it affects interstate
commerce over which the State com
mission has no control.
U. S. Biggest Market

WASHINGTON. June 3 — Accord
ing to X report made public to-day
by the Department of Commerce, the
United States ranks second as a cus

Canada buys more from the United
S: ttes than from all other nations
combined. We also would take the
bulk of the exports except that Cnna-

WOULD REVISE Actress Talks on Americans and Their Ways
•Or
Thinks Rockefeller, Jr., Might Do a Great Work
IS CALLED AN ACCIDENT
Clues, First Taken as Slaying Evi
dence, Believed to Strengthen New
Theory—Negroes Have Alibi.
With an alibi practically proved by Walter Wilkes and Ernest
Maynard, negroes held on suspicion in the Stevens case, detectives
who are investigating the mystery are inclining to an accident
theory 1o account for the burning of the Stevens borne and Jhe
death of Mrs. Sarah ('. Stevens and her daughter, Nellie.
Detective Rosser, Sheriff McCurdy and Deputy Sheriff Livesy,
of DeKalb County, working on tin* case, have finally learned the
truth of the finding of the axe, hoe, revolver cartridge, the dis
charged shotgun shell and other evidence, which it is claimed sus
tains the theory of accidental death more than it (iocs the theory
of murder. ——
The investigations of the of
ficers, according to one of them,
has developed the following
facts:
Th*» ax was found 4>0 feet from
whore the bodies lay. and the
blade was embedded in the
ground. It was later carried Into
th* ruins where the bodies lay.
The door—there wan but one—
leading from the hallway into
Mrs. Stevens’ room was locked.
The hoe was found in the hall
way, nearer Mr. Stevens’ room
than the room where the bodies
were found.
The exploded shotgun cartridge
was found more than a hundred
yards from the house, at a spot
where it is said Mrs. Stevens had
beet shooting at birds.
The exploded revolver cartridge
was found a hundred yards from
the house, at the edge of the
road. It had not been in the fire
at all.
There was no truth in the re
port that an exploded shell was
found in the shotgun discovered
in he bedroom. There was a
shell in the gun, but the brass had
melted and run into the barrel.
It wsa impossible to tell whether
It had been fired or discharged
by the heat.
Thinks Fire Cracked Skulls.
F. W. Patterson, of the .firm of H.
M .Patterson & Son. the undertak
ers who prepared the bodies for bur
ial, told a Georgian reporter Tuesday
morning that he does not think the
skulls were crushed. He said it was
impossible, owing to the condition of
the bodies, to tell how Mrs. Stevens
and her daughter were killed. He de
clared that the skulls of the women
looked more like they had been crack
ed open “by the heat than crushed.
Mr. Patterson said it is not an un
usual thing for the hones of human
beings to he cracked by the heat when
caught in a fire. He said he could
find, in a minute examination of the
bodies, no traces of foul play. Neither
of the bodies were examined by a
physician.
One of the officers declared to-day
that the hoe. supposed to he one of the
weapons with which the murder—if
there were a murder—was committed,
was an old implement that had been
under the house for several years.
Sheriff McCurdy said that the hoe did
not look as thougn it had recently had .

gered to the door, forgetting that it
was locked; that they had reached the
door and couldn’t get it open; that
they then started for the windows and
were overcome before hey could reach
them.
Sheriff McCurdy declared to-day
that, in the light of recent develop
ments In the case, the only circum
stance that points to murder is the
position in which the shotgun was ly
ing when found. It was as though it
had fallen from Mrs. Stevens’ hand.
It has been learned, however, that the
gun habitually stood in a corner of
the bed room, and the theory is ad
vanced that when the flames exploded !
the shell the recoil threw {he gun into I
the middle of the room.
Police to S'ft Evidence.
Though all indications now point to I
accidental burning as the solution of
the mystery. Sheriff McCurdy and De
tective Rosser said to-day they will
continue to work m the murder theory
until it is exhausted y>r evidence ob
tained to determine whether there w ag
a murder or whether the women were
caught in the burning of their home.
Detective Rosser practically admit
ted on Tuesday that the two negroes
held under suspicion, Walter Wilkes
and Ernest Maynard, had proven
alibis. He is not yet through with
his investigation, however, and the
negroes will not be released until
after their alibi is proven beyond
the shadow of a doubt. Both men
are now locked up in the DeKalb
County jail at Decatur.
Because not all of the crowd of
farmers who gathered at the scene of
the crime Monday%afternoon were let
in on the secret, a dramatic “third
degree” to obtain a confession from
Wilkes and Maynard not only failed
of its purpose, but almost developed
Into a real lynching. The lives of
the negroes were saved. It is reported,
only when Chief of Detective Lan-
ford appeared on the scene with
drawn revolver, backed up by Sheriff
McCurdy.
According to a statement made on
Tuesday by one of the members of th®
“mob,” the lynching bee was framed
by Chief Lanford, with the knowledge
and consent of Sheriff McCurdy and
a number of farmers.
Ruse to Get Confession Denied.
"The plan,” declared the “mob”
member, “was this; Sheriff McCurdy
and Detective Rosser brought the ne
groes out to the Stevens farm, and
after tying them to a tree, stepped
behind the barn. Then the farmers
w ho were In on the deal began threat
ening the negroes, and tl\e original
plan was to get a rope and advance
upon them, yelling that we were going
to lynch them. Then chief Lanford
was to rush up and rescue the ne
groes. It was hoped to get a confes
sion out of them while they were
frightened.
"But a number of farmers came
out who wert* not in on the i fame-up.
and they were in dead earnest. The
crowd carried the men to the barn
and started to put a roep over a
rafter when Lanford appeared. It is
ry probable that the negroes would

Mrs. Stevens some time previous to
the burning of their home.
The accident theory, based on the
row developments, is that Mrs. Ste-
\ens and her daughter, being fright
ened because they were alone, had
locked the door of their room when
they retired; that about midnight,
when they were sound asleep, the
hou*e caught fire; that with the door

Stand Taken by Bar Association
Does Not Meet With Favor.
Simplification Wanted.
Subdued expressions around the
State Capitol indicate a general de
sire among officeholders for a revision
of the Georgia Constitution of 1877.
The action of the Bar Association at
Warm Springs last week in unani
mously opposing the movement is
commented on with no great favor.
W. R. Power, warrant secretary *o
the Governor, was outright in his ad
vocacy of a constitutional convention.
Referring to the opinion of the Bar
Association, he admitted the time
might not be quite ripe, but said it
was coming, and coming soon.
Phil Cook, Secretary of State, said
some parts of the Constitution un
doubtedly needed changing, but ef
forts in that direction would meet
with opposition.
“The great fear of revision is that
the bars might he let down to the
State treasury,” he said, “and re
strictions placed around the expendi
ture of money by the wisdom of Bob
Toombs might be withdrawn.”
One objection to the Constitution
pointed out by the Secretary of State
was Its lack of simplicity, because of
numerous amendments. The Legisla
ture proposes amendments each year,
which are invariably ratified, he said.
A State treasury official said the
State was twenty years behind in its
fiscal policies, and a constitutional re
vision was the only possible correc
tive. “In handling State funds.” he
pointed out, "we are hampered by
laws enacted 35 years ago. Consti
tutional revision is necessary to cor
rect these evils."
Other “evils” indicated were the
creation of new counties and new city
courts, the multiplica.tion of judicial
circuits and the present method of
amending the Constitution.

placed to complete the riddling ot
Conley's testimony and affidavits.
Frank had arrived home in the after
noon at the time Conley says the su
perintendent was dictating notes in
his office, according to five witnesses
the defense will be able to call.
Conley described at length his al
leged conversation with Frank in the
factory office after 1 o’clock. Frank
says that he arrived home for lunch
eon at 1:20 o’clock and he is support
ed in his statement by five witnesses.
Seven witnesses are prepared to
testify that Frank was home in the
evening at the time he is said to have
been telephoning to Mrs. Mima Fom-
by. asking her for permission to bring
a girl to her house. If the State’s
theory is accepted that Mary Phagan
was killed in the afternoon, the de
fense will hold that the Fomby affi
davit is ridiculous on its face. It
will be pointed out that any man,
whether he be ignorant or intelligent,
would not in the first place confide
his crime to a negro or any other
person by asking their assistance in
disposing of the body.
After this he would not take a cab
driver, a woman and any others who
happened to observe his movements
into his confidence by removing the
dead body to a semi-public house like
that of Mrs. Fomby’s.
Police to Combat Them.
The element of time will enter into
several other phases of the defense to
show that the negro has been lying
in all his affidavits. He repeated a
conversation which took place be
tween Foreman Darle.v and Miss
Mattie Smith. He said that it took
1 place a few minutes before 12 o’clock.
The defense will claim that, as a
matter of fact, the conversation took
place at about 9:30 o’clock in the
morning and that the negro must
have been there at that time in order
to hear the ‘’onversation, although he
testified that he did not come there
until he met Frank on the street at
11 o’clock. The police, however, are
ready to combat testimony along this
line.
That Frank would have been satis
fied with the incoherent, almost unin
telligible. n,otes found beside the girl’s
body, if he had been dictating them,
will be represented as most unreason
able. The notes were more probably
the sole work of a half-intoxicated
negro, as Conley has admitted he
was. the defense will maintain.

“My very sincere opinion is that
moving pictures are a rather ordi
nary and cheap demonstration of pic
torial art associated with the dra
matic art. The pictures are like in
different stories illustrated by bad
pictures. The show is amusing for
five minutes, but in no way does it
take the place of art.
“I think moving pictures will be

Asked her views on the latest
dances, the Tango and the Turkey
Trot, she said:
“These dances are abominable, re
volting and improper. I can not un
derstand how any one could permit
such insanities to take place in their
j drawing rooms, yet not only do they
I permit them, hut young girls of re-
| spectable families assemble together
to learn those dances.
“The mothers are at fault. They
should never permit such exhibitions.
And why do they do it? They keep
a young girl away from immoral sur
roundings. choose her books, hide
from her newspapers reporting ques
tionable divorces or passionate
crimes.
“Tfroy keep u watch on her friend
ships, they do everything in the world
to keep her mind from being sullied,
yet they let her. not only see. but
actually Hike part in. a spectacle
which is. more than any other,
stripped bare of all modesty and de
cency.
“I have heard particular people se
verely condemn the waltz w hen I was
a girl. What would they say to-day?”
What Rockefeller, Jr., Might Do.
Of Rockefeller she said:
“Monsieur Rockefeller, Jr., thinks
that even if one does try to protect
poor girls there are many who would
still become of questionable character
through idleness.
•1 do not agree with Monsieur
Rockefeller. Jr. I really think that
unhappiness and poverty drive many
wretched girls to vice. But I am
persuaded that, if means to earn a
livelihood were procured for poor
girls, all of them would JoyfuHy ac
cept work.
■ And yet. one can not complain in
I America for there a ,- c many less such
women here than in France. Work
fs well rewarded, and the hours of
J work ace ten times less heavy than
Jin my country. Here the shops open
I late and close early. The girls in the
stores take things easily; they chat
among themselves and reply to cus
tomers when it suits them. In France
the poor shopgirls are treated like
slaves.
"Oh! if Mr. Rockefeller. Jr., could
hut find the right way to assist poor
young girls as they venture out on
iife, humanity would not know how to
thank him. But he will do nothing;
neither he nor ant other rich million
aire who lives in this country. They
do a great many things, hut not splen
did humanitarian things; not grand
actions of this sort."
The lack of taste displayed by some
of our women called forth the follow
ing remarks:
“Really, I am sometimes amazed at
the want of tact exhibited by some
American women.
"At the opening of the Los An
geles opera, the public came in crowds
to hear for the first time the delight
ful and great artist, Mary Garden.
“The women had arrayed them
selves in their most beautiful gowns
and literally covered themselves with
jewels. So far there w-as no l?arm,
for all society women all over the
world, whether European. American or
savage, love to appear in public with
the best they have in gowns, jewels
and ‘feathers.
“One of the ladies, when getting
cut of her carriage, pulled up her
dress very high to allow admiration
to expend itself—not on her leg, hut
her stockings, upon which diamonds
and pearls were embroidered.
“1 really considered this most
doubtful taste and vulgar. But it was
still worse than that. The lady stop
ped. gathered her dress up carefully
and held it with two fingers and re
mained so. posing before the photog
raphers in profile, then full face and
always with the toe advanced and
the limb uncovered.
“I cast my eyes around to find her
husband. I do not know if it was
he who quietly stood behind her until
the operation was finished, but I said
to myself, in France, in Paris, that
woman would have been hooted and
jeered by the crowd witnessing the
scene, and next day her husband
would have had two or three duels on
his hands for permitting it.
“Now, although Paris women are
considered in America to have little
prudery and to be barefaced, I de
clare that no society woman would
ever have done such a thing as this.
“But perhaps this woman was not a
society lady, hut only a millionair
ess!”
