INDICTMENT DF

Grand Jury Defers Action After
Dorsey Shows It Will Hamper
Frank Prosecution.
Continued From Page 1.
attention whatever to anonymous
communications*.”
It is known that the Grand Jury has
been flooded with letters on the Pha-
pran rase, many of them urging actl u
on Conley, and many unsigned.
A recent Supreme Court decision
war cited by Solicitor Dorsey to the
Grand Jury when he demanded
'•hands off" on the Conley indictment.
The decision says of the Solicitor:
“He is to determine whether or not
to commence a particular prosecution,
or to discontinue one already begun.
The Solicitor General draws the bill
of indictment and examines the wit
nesses, not with a view to the inter
est of any client, but alone to sub
serve public Justice.
“The whole prosecution from the
time the case is laid before him is
under his direction, supervision and
control.—102 Georgia, page 271."
Delay in Trial Rumored.
The impression gained ground-Mon
day that a postponement of the trial
of Frank was probable. It was re
ported that the defense would make
a move to effect this before the came
comes up on June 2S.
According to Solicitor Dorsey,
Judge L. S. Roan, who will try the
case, is not particularly anxious that
It come up at this time.
Says Judge Favors Delay.
"I was talking with Judge Roan a
short time ago,” said the Solicitor,
“and from his conversation I gathered
that he would rather the trial did not
come up before fall, though he did not
eay so outright.”
Shortly before noon Jim Conley was
taken from his cell at police head
quarters and spirited off in an auto
mobile by Defectives Starnes and
Campbell, the officers who have had
complete charge of the negro for
several weeks. Inquiry failed to
reveal the destination or purpose of
this action. The negro was out of his
cell less than an hour and on his re
turn the same strict secrecy was
maintained.
Fighting Mincey.
According to Chief of Detectives
Lanford, the mysterious trip of Con
ley from police headquarters with De
tectives Starnes and Campbell ended
at the corner of Electric avenue and
Carter street, where W. H. Mincey,
the insurance agent, declared in an
affidavit the negro was sitting on the
curb intoxicated the afternoon of the
Phagan murder, and confessed that
he had killed a girl that day.
Chief Lanford stated that an effort
had been made by the detectives to
have persons residing in that vicinity
identify Conley as having seen him
there at the time Mincey stated.
However, no one had been able to do
so. It was also declared that Conley
had been taken around to a Butler
street address where it is declared the
negro was at the time Mincey swears
the conversation on tne curbing Look
place.
Solicitor Dorsey was the only per
son asked to appear before the Ju
rors. Before they assembled he as
serted that he was entirely confident
that no indictment would be returned
against the negro.
Mulhall Says Foes
‘Shadowed’ Gompers
WASHINGTON. July 21.—Colonel
Mulhall, testifying to-day before the
Lobby Investigation Committee, de
clared that Judge Davenport, attor
ney for the Buck’s Stove and Range
Company of St. Louis, trailed Samuel
Gompers during the 1908 campaign
with stenographers, who reported all
of Gompers' speeches.
The motive, he said, was the hope
that Gompers would say something
which might be brought to the atten
tion of the Federal courts, which had
under consideration the Injunction
and contempt proceedings against
Gompers and the other bends of the
American Federation of Labor.
Wilson Can't See
Rest for Congress
WASHINGTON, July 21 President
Wilson told visitors to-day that he Is
well satisfied with the progress of the
currency legislation and expects to see
the bill passed by both Houses before
before the end of the present session.
“Do you mean the present special ses
sion or after a recess?" the President
was asked.
“I have heard nothing about a recess,"
the President replied, “and I see no rea
son for one.”

DEATH ROBS GIRL OF
MOTHER AND BOY'PAL’
UNFAIR TO
THE DRUGGIST
j _.
( The Old Joke About ' Sorae-
! thing Just as Good,”
Doesn't Apply to
This Drug Store.
You have probably heard dozens
of times the old story that a drug
store was a place to "get some
thing Just as good.” There is at
least one druggist in the world
that you can’t say this about.
It is certain that an inferior ar
ticle will never be substituted for
a guaranteed one by any dealer.
Take for instance a safe, reliabh
remedy for constipation and liver
trouble like Dodson’s Liver Tone.
This harmless vegetable liquid has
proved so satisfactory a liver stim
ulant and reliever of biliousness,
and to entirely take the place of
calomel without any danger or re
striction of habits or diet, that
there are dozens of preparations
springing up with imitations of
its claims
But Dodson's Liver Tone is
guaranteed to do all that is claimed
for It, and if you are not satisfied
with It your druggist will hand
your money back with a smile.
Any person going to a drug store
for a bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone
will be sure of getting a large bot
tle of this genuine remedy in ex
change for his half dollar.
City Lawmakers Go After Record
in Overriding Wishes of Mayor
Woodward.
Members-of Council at the meeting
Monday afternoo will attempt m
override two vetoes of Mayor Wood
ward. These will be their thirty-third
and thirty-fourth efforts and they will
set a record. During the former years
of the Mayor s service his disapproval
of councilmanie action was annulled
22 times by two-thirds votes of Coun
cil.
The first matter to come up will ho
the question of consolidating the as
sessing and receivin'' departments o“
the tax office. The Council resolution
seeks to place Receiver Beauchamp
under the Assessors. Mayor Wood
ward has the Receiver’s side with the
statement:
“About the only reason that I can
see for consolidating these offices
again is simply for the purpose of po
litical patronage, a question that
should not enter into this matter
when the efficiency and the good of
the city are taken into consideration.”
Alderman James R. Nutting, author
of the resolution, declares that the di
vided system has proved a failure,
and blames it for the loss of almost
$50,000 in revenue.
The other veto of the Mayor is on
the resolution appropriating $5 for an
option on the $100,000 electric plant
feature of the new crematory. Mayor
Woodward declares the whole propo
sition was knocked out by the Su
preme Court and that he will not sign
any check throwing away $5 of the
city’s money.
Alderman Nutting, Councilman Al
bert Thomson and others charge the
Mayor's opposition is due to the fact
that he is tied up with the Georgia
Railway and Power Company inter
ests.

Loses Her Best Loved Playmate
When Lad and His Inseparable
Chum Drown.
Sorrow', using death as its weapon,
struck twice to the heart of 14-year-
old Mary Chastine Sunday, and in so
doing cast a shadow over the entire
vicinity of her home at No. 33 Hum
phries street, for she was its sun
shine.
In the double stroke the lives of
both the mother of the girl, Mrs. Arie
Chastine, and her best-loved play
mate, Jerry Moles, 15 years old, w’ho
lived across the street, were snuffed
out, the former after an operation and
the boy from drowning in the Chat
tahoochee River.
And, as If not satisfied, the Reaper
added a third to his toll from the
neighborhood in taking the life of
Casey Daniels, No. 71 Hightow’er
street, 15 years old, also a friend of
Mary, who drowned with Jerry.
Inquest Into Death Called.
An inquest into the death of the
boys was called by the Odroner.
The two boys went fishing Satur
day afternoon in the Chattahoochee
River at the end of the Marietta road.
As Casey Daniels was leaving home
his mother warned him not to ven
ture in the water.
"Please don’t go to the river,’’ said
Mrs. Daniels to her son. “Go to
some creek and fish like good boys.
I am so afraid something will hap
pen and that you both will drown.”
Bodies Caught on Fishline.
When the boys did not return at
nightfall their parents became alarm
ed and a party with lanterns search
ed the river bunk. Sunday the search
was renewed by about 100 persons.
At 2 o’clock in the afternoon G. W.
Smith, of No. 527 West North avenue,
j located a fishing line hung across the
I river.
He climbed out of the boat In
which he sat and found a ghastly
I burden caught in the hooks below’.
| The depth of the water at this point
is about fifteen feet. The bodies of
' the two boys were lying on the river
j bottom with their arms entwined.
They were clad only in undershirt
| and trousers. The remainder of their
'apparel was found later under bushes
at the opposite side of the stream.
Both Poor Swimmers.
N. L. Moles, father of Jerry, thinks
! both boys were in bathing, that one
j "f them got beyond his depth, and
that the other boy' tried to rescue his
friend. Both were poor swimmers.
Casey Daniels was a member of the
! Junior Order of Mechanics. He is sur
vived by four brothers and four sis
ters. All of the sisters and two of
the brothers are married. They are
M. L. Daniels, of No. 82 Stewart
avenue; William R., of Los Angeles,
I Cal.; Mrs. Timms, of East Point;
Waycross Girl Deserted a Week
After Marriage, Seeks Miss

Wooed and won after nine months
of romantic courtship; a week of
happiness in an ideal home, then de
sertion, was the experience of Mrs. S.
J. Jowers, a pretty young woman, of
Waycross, who is scouring the State
in search of her missing husband.
She appealed to the Atlanta police
Sunday.
The young woman went direct to
police headquarters, w’here she bared
the,whole story of her misfortunes.
Between sobs, which moved even
Captain Poole, who has heard many
a tale of this sort, she told how she
had been wooed; how r . finally', she had
given her heart to the ardent suitor;
how they were married in the little
church in Waycross, where she was
born and reared; how they took up
their married life at her husband’s
home in Fitzgerald—and then, one
week later, of his sudden departure.
Jowers, the young wife told the po
lice, said he was going away to get a
better job—that was the last she
heard of him.
Having a "tip” that he might be in
Atlanta. Mrs. Jowers came to Atlan
ta and Immediately' instituted a search
for him through the police. All the
afternoon Captain Poole and the
young woman searched the streets of
Atlanta, but to no avail.
Mrs. Jowers left Atlanta Monday
morning, after leavin. a description
of her husband with the police.
Mrs. Jowers, before marriage, was
Miss Victoria Pace, daughter of J.
B. Pace, of Waycross. She is 18

AM PARK TO
PROTEST DELAY
ON STREETS
Citizens Will Demand That Pav
ing Provided for Seven Months
Ago Be Done at Once.
With almost seven months of the
year gone and no street work clone in
Ansley Park, members of the Ansley
Park Association, made up of resi
dents and property owmers of that
section, are planning to make a pro
test to the City Council.
Many of the streets in that section
practically are impassable. Though
the avenues are lined with beautiful
homes surrounded by well-kept lawns,
the streets are cut Into ruts and holes
worse than any country roads.
Neither the city nor the country has
done any work to speak of In Ans
ley Park since it was incorporated.
As an aid toward a solution of the
problem. The Georgian has made an
investigation of the conditions from
the city officials’ viewpoint.
Owners to Pay Two-Third*.
When the January budget w’as
made up $19,931.25 w f as provided for
repaving Peachtree circle from Fif
teenth street to Prado, the property
owners to pay $13,287.50 of the
amount and the city to pay $6,643.75
From the streets ordinary fund the
Eighth Ward got $5,950, from the rock
and chert fund $2,160 and from the
chert repair fuftd $600.
From this appropriation only one
block of street has been paved, Lom
bardy street between Fifteenth and
Sixteenth streets. Not even a pick
has been stuck in any other part of
the park, and there have been seven
months of the finest working w'eather
the city construction department has
ever known
Although the property owners are
to pay two-thirds of the cost of the
paving of Peachtree circle they have
been tabooed- dn this street for more
than a year.
Nothing Done on S. Prado.
While the residents have borne the
condition with the patience of Job
they declare they will not remain
quiet any longer.
From the general fund $4,769 has
been set aside for paving South
Prado from Piedmont avenue to
Prado. This is a favorite drive for
autoists. It winds around with the
beauty of a mountain pass. Attrac
tive homes are built up along it. But
it is worn full of deep holes and
ridges, and though th e money for
its repair has been available since the
first of the year no contract has been
let—not even have bids been asked
for.
Thf» general funds are supposed to
provide for repairs of streets. Re
pairs have been unknown to Ansley
Park.
Chairman Orville H. Hall, of the
Council Streets Committee, said
Monday morning that the reason for
this condition w r as that the city
forces had been engaged in other
sections.
Beaten by "Wire Pulling."
His statement w'ould indicate that
the Eighth Ward representatives had
been completely outdone in the “wire
pulling" contest that goes on between
Councilmen over street work.
W. A. Hansel, Assistant Chief of
Construction, said the contract had
been let for “dolarway” paving on
Peachtree circle, but that the contrac
tor also was repaving Central avenue,
and that he would have to finish that
before going to Peachtree circle. He
said he expected Central avenue tc be
finished in about ten days.
As to South Prado,.he said a new'
process of bitulithic macadam w’ould
be tried there, but that they were
waiting to see how the same sort of
paving laid on Gordon street turned
out before putting it dow’n on South
Prado.
Members of the Ansley Park Asso
ciation are dissatisfied. They can not
understand Vhy they have not had
some street work done this year.

setting is one of the handsomest that
has been presented on any stage.
Tabloid at Bijou.
The Bijou is proving the popularity
