Continued From Page 1. defending Frank They already ridi cule the Idea of accepting an lota ol Conley's testimony, in view of the many changes he has made in It since he first talked to the detectives. They brand him as a perjurer and his state ments rdt. State Ready for Fight. Solicitor Dorsey and his associate in the prosecution, Frank A. Hooper, have been preparing themselves for the fight that may be precipitated at any moment after the opening of the trial over the subpenas duces tecum which have been Issued by Luther Z. Rosser and Reuben R. Arnold, law yers for Frank. The subpenas, which were Issued last month when It was thought that the trial might begin June 30, com manded Solicitor Dorsey, Chief Lan- ford, Chief Beavers, Harry Scott and other detectives who had worked on the Phagan mystery to bring to court with them the affidavits of Jim Con ley, Newt Lee, Monteen Stover, W. M Matthews and several other witnesses. The attorneys for the proeecutlor branded the subpenas as a trick to discredit the State’s witnesses if their testimony should vary in the slight est from that contained In the affida vits. They announced that they would fight the move before the bar of the court. If unsuccessful, It was regarded as not unlikely that they would retaliate with subpenas duces tecum of their own. It Is possible that the skirmish over the subpenas may precede the drawing of the jury, which also will involve a large amount of legal jockeying P. H. Brewster, one of the oldest member* of the Atlanta bar. and known for his wealth of legal infor mation. has been called in to assist the prOMOUtlOB in preparing certain phases of its case. Colonel Brewster to Figure. Colonel Brewster has compiled briefs bearing on the admissibility of everv particle of evidence which the prosecution has in ita possession, and he is expected to be an interesting figure in the courtroom during the progress of the trial. Attorneys for the defense an nounced yesterday that they knew of nothing that would influence them to aJ*k for a continuance when the case is called to-morrow. Subpenas have been issued for about 150 witnesses by Frank’s lawyers. One of the subpe nas was served upon Harry Scott, who conducted the Investigation Into the murder mystery for the Pinker ton Agency. Scott also is under sum mons by the prosecution. Frank and hla attorneys will go into the trial confident of an acquit tal. Evidence has been in their pos- •4MS10Q for WMlU which points sus picion directly at the negro Conley. All of the veniremen, with the ex ception of two or three who could not be located yesterday, have been notified to appear. The courtroom has been prepared for the crowd that will pack It w hile the trial is in progress. Judge Roan has said that he knows of no reason why there should be a further postponement. Judge Roan to Preside. The formal trial of Leo M. Frank for the murder of Mary Phagan will begin at 9 o’clock Monday morning, when Judge L. 8. Roan calls the crlm Inal division of the Superior Court to order in the courtroom on the first floor of the old City Hall, South Pry or and Hunter streets. Under direction of Deputy Sheriff Plennie Minor, all preparations for receiving the vast crowds that are expected to be drawn by the cele brated case have been made. Benches, outside the space reserved for the at torneys and newspaper men, have been replaced with chairs there, and the seating capacity of the room has been raised to 250. No spectator will he admitted after the seats are filled. Saturday morning electricians were | Installing half a dozen electric fans, which will help to make the room j comfortable during the battle to come | There also have been installed half a dozen ozonators to help purify the air. Judge Roan was In his chambers all of Saturday. He declared that despite his recent attack of indiges tion he will be on the bench when the hour of the trial arrives.

W ITHOUT going into the merit of the State’s case against Leo M. Frank, charged with the murder of little Mary Phagan, the possibility of a mistake having been made is very remote. To say why the State believes Frank to be guilty of this murder would be hurtful, and lay before the defense the evidence we have so carefully guarded. We have employed only the fairest methods and have accepted no evidence until it had been subjected to the acid test. Conley’s connection with the case occasioned the most careful investigation. No statement of his was accepted until it had been proved. He is merely a link in the chain. We looked into the possibility of Conley having com mitted the murder, but with other facts considered, it was impossible to connect him other than as an accessory. Whether there can be a reasonable doubt when the evi dence is weighed remains to be seen, but on the eve of the trial I have no misgiving as to the strength of the State’s case.

Either Side Asking Postponement Will Reveal Weakness, as Time Has Been Given for Preparation. Conley Is Center of Interest, By AN OLD POLICE REPORTER. The defense In the case of Leo Frank would have made a mistake, If current street comment counts for anything, had it decided to move for a continuance of the case to morrow. Indeed, the fact that the defense even was suspected of an intent to move for a continuance—righteous ly or otherwise—has not had a, happy effect upon the public, even If it has not, on the other hand, served particularly to prejudice the case. The people want the Frank case .ried. I think there is no mistake about that. And when it was rumored that it might be postponed, with the con sent of the defense, even if not of its own motion, more than one per son in Atlanta, ev°n those inclined to he friendly to Frank, began, more or less Impatiently, to ask them selves, WHY? If the State is sure of itself, why delay? If the defense is sure of it self, why delay? If either is not -sure of itself, why, then. It must be because the one not sure of itself has a weak case Thus reasons the public. Leo Frank is guilty or he is not guilty. The case against him can be thrashed out NOW as well as later along. Frank is reported eager for trial. The State professes to be al together ready. Hesitancy upon the part of either now Is not apt to win favor to the hesitating. Public Not Muddled. While much has been said of Jim Conley of late, and an effort was made to have him indicted in ad vance of Frank’s trial, the public has not permitted itself to be mud dled. Il realizes that Conley occupies a somewhat dual position, to be sure, and that the finger of suspi cion points to him as a possible principal to the killing of Mary Phagan, no less than as a confessed accessory after the fact. The public has its eye very much on Conley—YES. But the public has not YET been convinced—and may never become convinced—that Leo Frank is innocent of the crime for which he has been indicted. And he has been indicted, by "twelve good men and true,” as the law requires—one must NOT forget that! Frank is admitted to have been in the pencil factory when the crime MIGHT have been committed The evidence that he actually committed the deed is, to be sure, entirely cir* cumstantlal. Even the affidavit of the negro Conley, if it withstands the blis tering attacks Attorneys Rosser and Arnold unquestionably will make upon it. still will not be direct evi dence that Frank committed the crime. % • It is rather difficult for the lay man to comprehend fully the exact difference between circumstantial and direct evidence, and to keep his mind quite clear when passing through the twilight zone dividing the one from the other, but there IS a dividing line, and Frank stands well within the circumstantial lim its. Law Recognizes Circumstances. While, however, t e law holds the State to a sterner accounting in the matter of establishing guilt through circumstances rather than by direct evidence, it nevertheless permits circumstances to convict SWEEP- INGLY AND COMPLETELY, if properly sequenced and sustained!

He had the OPPORTUNITY to consummate the deed. He had been in prior communication witli the girl, when they two were prac tically alone in the pencil factory, save for the then unsuspected presence of the negro Conley. There is some evidence that Frank had been, at times, rather familiar with factory employees — particularly with two or three young girls. Frank, contrary to his usual cus tom, permitted Newt J.ee to g*« away from the factorv during the afternoon of April 26—Saturday. This extraordinary procedure has not been accounted for to the State’s satisfaction. Frank, contrary again to his us ual custom, phoned to the factory after he arrived at his home Sat urday evening, and this fact also never has been explained to the State’s satisfaction. A negro, Jim Conley, a sweeper In the factory, has signed an affi davit to the effect that Frank, nerv ous and seemingly much agitated, called him to the second floor of the factory—the negro admitting that he had been dozing in a drunken stupor on the floor below—along about 1 o’clock in the afternoon of the killing, and that Frank there after hired him to remove the dead body of Mary Phagan from the sec ond floor to the basement below, hide it. and, at Frank’s dictation, wtftc and place the notes beside the dead girl, found next morning. Frank also is accused—whether the State will rely upon this evi dence in any particular is not alto gether clear, however—with phon ing persistently a notorious woman between 7 and 10 In the evening of April 26, asking that he be permit ted to bring to her house a girl, un named, “upon a matter of life and death.” Conley Center of Case. Now, if the State can sustain it self thoroughly jpon these allega tions. It must be admitted that the case against Frank will be very se rious. indeed! Of course, Conley will be the most damaging witness against him, for upon Conley’s evidence will depend the hurtfulness or the utter worth lessness of the other circumstances set up against the defendant. In other words, if Conley is BRO KEN DOWN, the remaining alle gations against Frank doubtless will be quickly and easily disposed of. If Conley is NOT broken down, however, then the other circum stances become links in a chain against Frank that likely can be made to hold together. It is just as well to look things squarely in the face, as the Frank trial comes on to-morrow! Can the defense break Conley down? That, of course, I do not know—I can not know. The only thing I know’ of expe rience in cases of this kind is that the defense MUST break Conley down or Leo Frank will face a very, very dangerous situation! It must be borne in mind, more over, that it will be the defense’s burden to break Conley down, rath er than the State’s burden to estab lish his credibility Unless successfully assailed, Con ley’s affidavit will stand before the jury unprejudiced for exactly what it may be worth. The defense claims to be prepared perfectly for the annihilation of Conley’s statement. Maybe it is— the defense should have read its own hand pretty well by now. The defense, however, may be In the situation “Br’er Rabbit*’ found himself once when he “clum a tree” because he just naturally was “obleeged to,’’ and NOT because anybody ever had heard of a rabbit climbing a tree before in all natu ral history’. And I do not write this flippantly, but to illustrate the point. Whether the defense can break down Conley or not, the DEFENSE MUST BREAK DOW* CONLEY or face a perilous alternative! Refused Cooley Indictment. All the circumstances and recitals concerning Conlev. tending to show' that he and not Frank more likely Defense Must Break Story of Ne gro or Face Difficult Situation. State Will Base Case on Chain of Circumstantial Evidence. An amazing chain of evidence, lay ing bare the mystery of the two notes found beside the body of Mary Pha gan, which have proved the most baf fling of all the facts connected with the girl’s murder, came to light as In the possession of the defense Satur day. According to the theory of the de fense, Conley murdered the girl and was unexpectedly discovered with her body in the basement of the pencil factory by Newt Lee; that the night watchman declared the blame for the murder w'ould be placed upon him self instead of Conley, and that the two notes, laying the blame upon the negro fireman Knoyls, and openly ac cusing the night w’atchman of the crime, sealed an agreement of secrecy between Lee and Conley. Motive of Notes. The first note, written by Conley, to soothe Lee’s fears. Is believed to have been the one reading: “Mama, that negro hired down here did this. I went to get water and he pushed me down this hole a long tall negro black that has it woke long lean tall negro I write this while piuy w r ith me." According to the defense’s theory, this did not satisfy Lee, and hence the second one reading: “He said he would love me laid down like the night witch did It, but that long tall black negro did it by hisselff” was written. It is the claim of the defense that in the obvious exoneration of Lee | by Conley, as is shown in the second I note, despite the admissions of both that they were barely acquainted | with each other lies the proof that j Lee directed the execution of the note. j The defense will also show, it is I said, that when the notes were picK- ed up by officers, Lee called their ! attention to the peculiar, spelling of w’ords “night witch” and explained j that they meant night watchman and was the principal in the killing of Mary Phagan, is beside the IMME DIATE QUESTION. The trial to called to-morrow’ is the trial cf LEO FRANK and not James Con ley. In addition to that, a Grand Jury but recently has definitely and di rectly REFUSED to indict James Conley for the murder, pending the disposition of the Frank case. These are stubborn facts the de fense is called upon to face—and it w’ill not do, I take it, to face them either hesitatingly or otherwise than frankly and candidly. The defense may be loaded with ammunition sufficient to shoot the State’s case to pieces, just as it claims to be. There are many peo ple w’ho believe it is—but there also are quite as many people, perhaps, who believe it isn’t. Looking back over the progress of events in this puzzling, elusive and continuously interesting Pha gan case—to my mind by far the most bizarre and grimly engag ing mystery in all the catalogue of crime in Georgia—I am moved to no great surprise that the pub lic yet is largely of open and fair mind in respect of it. ! himself Missing Time Punches. Following the writing of the two I notes, Conley is supposed to have been the companion of Lee until the watchman telephoned to the police. Then Conley departed. The defense, it is declared, believes the notes to have been written be tween 11:30 and 1:30 o’clock on the night of the murder and will pre sent the fact to uphold this theory that Lee’s time clock failed to show that he was at his post on the upper floor during this time. The time clock slip in the possession of the defense show’s that Lee missed punching it at 11:30, 12:30 and 1:30 o'clock that morning. Despite the claims of the defense as to the missing punches in the time slip, however. Leo M. Frank, on the witness stand at the Coroner’s inquest, declared that the time card showed that the negro made his rounds regularly on the night of the murder, and that no misses appeared, so far as he knew. Prosecution Knows Theory. That the prosecution is aw’are of the defense’s theory of the presence of the notes was indicated by the bringing of the two negroes together last week in New’t Lee’s cell in the BIJOU TH,S WEEK NORMAN FRIEDENWALD’S Hilarious Musical Farce COMEDY, THE GIRL FROM DUBLIN The liveliest, most tuneful and up-to-the-minute musical comedy show of the season. 1 1-2 HOURS OF FUN.

M. county jail, when Solicitor Dorsey put them through a cross-examina tion. At this time, however, both are declared to have denied emphatical ly the conspiracy of which they re accused. As astounding as may be the de fense’s conception of the murder notes, it satisfactorily explains their potentiality and conforms readily w’ith the other evidence in the hands of Frank’s counsel to direct guilt at Con ley—namely, the torn bit of the dead girl's pay envelope, found near the elevator shaft on the first floor, the umbrella of the girl discovered at the bottom of the elevator shaft, the mur der notes, the broken latch on the basement door and the time slip with the missing punches. Contention of Defense. Here is the theory of the defense as it has been learned by the prosecu tion: Conley is believed to have waylaid the girl on the first floor, and when she descended the stairway, after re ceiving her pay envelope from Frank, to have struck her from behind with the stick which w’as afterward found blood-s'tained near by. As the girl fell unconscious from the blow the negro is believed to hive heard the footsteps of Lemmie Quinn entering the building. Witht a quick move ment he is thought to have snatched the girl’s purse and cast her body and umbrella down the open elevator shaft, then dashed behind some boxes to hide. There he opened the purse, took out the envelope and tore It open, casting the torn-off top behind the radiator, where it w r as later found by Pinkerton detectives. After Quinn had gone up.rtairs, the theory is that Conley came from his hiding place, descended the ladder through the trap door to the basement, picked up the girl’s body and carried to back to the saw’dust pile In hi9 haste, he is de clared to have forgotten the umbrella which had fallen with the girl, and left it to be found later by detectives. Aft er depositing the body, Conley broke open the basement door and escaped, but returned at nightfall to get the body and take it away. Then it was that Newt Lee is supposed to have discovered him, to have framed the murder notes* and entered the pact of secrecy.
