Continued From Pago 1.
ST. LOUIS, July 28.—Physicians
to-day said there was no chance of
recovery for Mrs. Carrie Dubois, 21.
who swallowed 100 grains of bichlo
ride of mercury.
She attempted suicide because her
husband refused to allow’ her to ac
company him on a picnic trip, which
was a stag affair.
THREE ANNIVERSARIES IN DAY.
NEW YORK. July 28.—Mr. and
Mrs. Judah B. Voorhees, aged 85 and
74, respectively, celebrated a triple
anniversary on the same day. It w r as
the birthday of both and anniversary
of their wedding.
disinterested attorneys to occupy
seats inside the bar will not be fol
lowed. and this particular part of the
courtroom will be less crowded than
during the average criminal trial
How Thoy Will Lino Up.
Prosecuting Attorney Dorsey and
at least five assistants will occupy a
table directly in front of the bench
and witness stand with the jury box
close on the rlghthand side Attor
ney Rosser with his assistants and
the accused will be seated at a table
to the left of the State's and farther
a way from the Jury. The table for
newspaper men Is back of the State’s
table. The arrangements were agreed
upon by the attorneys and the Judge.
The table for the defense was se
lected by Attorney Rosser with a
view to the number of persons who
would wish to be near Frank during
the trial. Seats have been arranged
to the back of the table to accommo
date at least 30 persons, friends and
relatives of the accused, w’ho have
visited him constantly since he was
confined at the Tower.
Deputy Sheriff Plennle Miner, who
will have charge of the crow’d and
keeping order In court, will also have
charge of the prisoners. Long before
any crowd congregated around the
courthouse Frank and Lee wer»
brought from the Tower and placed
in the room reserved for them
When court opened Frank took his
place at the table reserved for his at
torneys.
No Room For Spectators Now.
For the first day of the trial, or
until the jury is selected and the
hearing actually under way, it Is ex
tremely doubtful if any spectator will
gain admission to the court. Seating
arrangements have only been pro
vided for about 250. The venire of
144 men will have to occupy that
number of the *eats when court Is
opened The witnesses for the two
aides will occupy the remaining seats
and standing room until they are dis
posed of In some way, which may not
be until after the Jury is drawn
The court rule to segregate the
witnesses will, of course, be enforced,
but It may not be until twelve men
have qualified as Jurors, which will
hardly he before the middle of the
w’eck.
When the witnesses are segregated
they will be kept in the large court
room on the floor above the trial
room. A bailiff will be placed In the
hall and one on the door of the wit
ness chamber, and as the names are
called they will be brought from the
floor above to the court.
It is probable some rule will be
made to keep tfie witnesses for the
State and the defense separated. In
which event the third floor of the
building would have to be used.
Jury Room Carefully Selected.
But If any great difficulty Is antic
ipated in drawing a Jury, and the
Judge thinks It impossible to finish
this task during any one day. he will
probably excuse the witnesses until
the next day, and continue to do so
until the Jury is Impaneled.
The Jury room was selected with a
great deal of care. It Is almost in
accessible from the outside and large
and airy Its windows are about
twenty feet above an alleyway that
runs on either side. Deputies will be
kept In the alley to keep anyone from
getting this close to the room.
As each Juror qualifies he will be
escorted to the room and kept there
until the full panel is drawn. Recess
will be taken at 1 o’clock In the after
noon and the Jury will be taken to
luncheon at n re?taurant almost di
rectly across the street from the
court. At night It will be quartered
at the Kimball House under a heavy
guard of deputies.
From the time a juror is acceptable
to both sides until the conclusion of
the case he will not be allowed to go
to his home or communicate • with
anyone except a fellow Juror.
The least of the deputies’ troubles
will not be in handling the crowd that
will gain admission to the court, but
in handling the crowd that will daily
congregate on the outside and w’alt
through the day for news of the pro
ceedings In the trial. Ton deputies
and as many members of the county
police will be on duty on the streets
around the building.
Trial to Surpass in Interest
Any in Fulton County History
No murder tlral in Fulton County
ever has approached the spectacular
Interest which is in prospect in the
Frank case from the first, sharp
skirmish between the opposing attor
neys, through the long, bitter legal
battle, and to the final pleas of the
prosecution and the defense.
The presence of Luther Z. Rosser
and Reuben R Arnold in the brilliant
array of legal talent at once made
certain that the trial would be out of
the ordinary. Neither has the reputa
tion of making a half-hearted fight
when there is anything at stake. This
time it is a man’s life that is de
pending upon their legal ability, their
shrewdness and their eloquence.
Both have a disconcerting habit of
carrying the fight to their opponent*.
In ring parlance, they do not give
their courtroom rival# a chance to
“get set.” This is going to keep the
spectators constantly on the edge of
expectation, and will furnish a series
of exciting incidents that will give the
Frank trial a place by itself in tn?
criminal annals of Georgia.
Crisis When Conley Is Grilled.
To describe Rosser's tactics as ag
gressive is expressing it euphemis
tically. If he were only aggressive,
his name would not inspire the
trepidation that now is felt by per
sons who have to face him in the wit
ness box or by young lawyers whJ
have to pit their strength against
him.
Roseer and Arnold are at their be.*:
when they are cross-examining the
witnesses called by the other side.
This fact is expected to bring about
the most thrilling situation of the
entire trial in the witness box grill
ing of the negro Jim Conley. Nut
satisfied with seeklne to prove the
entire innocence of their client, the
two lawyers propose to show that
Conley himself is the man who at
tacked Mary Phagan in the National
Pencil Factory and flung her dead
body upon the trash heap in the base
ment.
From whom are they to get testi
mony of this startling nature?
Certainly from no one else than the
negro, and from him they intend to
get it. It is a bold plan, but one char
acteristic of the two-handed fighting
methods of Rosser. Anyone who has
seer, a witness made the object of
^Rosser’s attack knows that Jim Con-
is in for a bad day when he is
WiUifcd to testify that Leo
*
Frank had him assist in the disposal
of Mary Phagan’s body.
Chance Seen for Confession.
Only a Rosser would have the cour
age of his convictions to expect to
break down tne negro after he re
peatedly had told the remarkable
story’ of finding the girl's dead body
on the second floor of the pencil fac
tory and carrying her. at Frank’s
direction and with Frank’s assistance,
down the elevator into the basement.
Roarer's. plan opens up the dramatic
possibility of a courtroom confession
from Conley. In the opinion of those
who are convinced of Frank’s inno
cence and the negro's guilt, it would
not be a matter of great surprise if
Conley, under the fire of questions
directed at him by Rosser and Ar
nold, should collapse and confess he
alone was concerned in the crime
The cross-examination of Conley »s
certain to be one of the spectacular
features of the trial. His vivid talo,
under the lead of questions by Solici
tor Dorsey and Attorney ^ank A.
Hooper, will be repeated to the court
room full of spectators It will lose
none of its dramatic elements. In that
its essential features already are well
known to the public. They are wait
ing to hear it flr?t hand frem the ne
gro's lips
Raked Up His Past Life.
Then Conley will be turned over to
the scarcely tender mercies of counsel
for Frank. He probably will be on
the rack for hours. Whether he will
be able to stand the ordeal is prob
lematical. No point in his history
that could have any possible bearing
on the case will be overlooked. The
defense Is in possession of a mass of
information relating to Conley’s con
duct for years. H# will be asked in
regard to every one of these circum
stances.
Before the events of the day of the
tragedy are reached the negro will
have undergone a searching exami
nation of significant incidents in his
past life. Then his story of his part
in the crime will be attacked. The
discrepancies will be brought out in
th' glare of the cross-examination.
The falsehoods that he told for days
after he was arrested will be resur
rected. All of his affidavits will be
ridiculed. The two attorneys will Join
in an effort to break down and utterly
to discredit the story to which he
now gUciu. .Whether or not they are
Work of Choosing Jurymen
Is Likely To Be Difficult
successful, their Attempt will he a
dramatic feature of the trial.
A fight, scarcely less spectacular
will develop over the story of William
H. Mincey. This time the attorneva
for the prosecution will be in the role
of scoffers. Mincey has declared tha*
he heard Conley boasting of killing a
girl.
Mincey. a quiet—almost diffident—
type of the country pedagogue, will
be made the target for the Solicitor’s
and Attorney Hooper’s fire of ques
tions They will seek to show th.it
Mincey never saw Conley the after
noon of April 26, when Mincey assert
ed he had the conversation with the
negro.
Climax When Frank Is Called.
A hot fight also will be precipitated
by the demand of the defense that the
State make known the identity, at
the beginning of the trial, ofr all the
witnesses against Frank. Solicitor
Dorsey has said that he will fight any
demand of this sort.
The subpenas duces tecum issued
by the defense will form another
casus belli that is expected to provide
a spirited skirmish between the at
torneys at the beginning of the trlaL
The defenso insists on having in
court, for the purpose of comparison,
all of the affidavits taken from Jim
Conley, Newt Lee, Monteen Stover.
W. M. Matthews and others Dorsey
declares this is a flimsy trick to dis
credit the States witnesses, arid pro
poses to resist to the extent of hi*
ability any move to compel him to
comply with the demand.
Leo Frank probably will take the
stand in his own defense. It is re
garded as not at all unlikely that At
torney Rosser will turn him over to
the prosecution and give them the
permission to question him as far as
they like. If this be done, the trial,
already invested with a host of dra
matic possibilities, will reach its cli
max in interest.
Phagan Case of Peculiar
And Enthralling Interest
As Leo Frank faces to-day the or
deal decreed by law that for man's
life, man’s life shall pay, interest in
his case that has held Atlanta. Geor
gia and the South enthralled for three
months has diminished not a whit
since the Sunday morning the body
of the little factory girl was found.
Wise judges of news, men w ho are
paid thousands of dollars- each year
for their knowledge of the fickleness
of the public, men who can time to
the second the period when interest
dies in one thing before the public eye
to be born anew in another, have for
vears contended that no single item
of news can sustain its interest longer
than one brief week.
And yet for three months the pub
lic has read of Mary Phagan’s death
and the quest for her slayer and their
demand for this news has been in
satiable.
That the vaunted Insight of these
news experts is as shallow as the
mirror reflection of a beauty of the
stage is the thought that common
logic first presents.
Ihe in sight uL experts has not
been at fault. On the contrary, it has
been sustained. For in the mystery
veiling the death of Mary Phagan and
the trial of Leo Frank as her slayer, a
more varied array of things that in
terest. thrill, horrify, shock and make
men think is presented than in any
one ease developed since typesetting
machines made the modern newspaper
possible.
Harry Thaw's case comes to mind,
that tragedy of romance that present
ed In the same cast of characters the
brilliant Lothario, the man of mil
lions, and a woman as fair as the
dawn. But there was never the ele
ment of mystery In the slaying of
Stanford White. District Attorney
Jerome described it pretty well as a
commonplace tragedy of the tender
loin.
The only question that confronted
the public was whether there was a
law’ decreed by God that a man should
take up arms and avenge his family
honor that should nullify the law
made by man that decreed that the
court* of the country and the Judg
ment of heaven could alone mete out
reparation for personal Injury.
But in the Phagan case, there is a
mystery so deep, so impenetrable,
that there are thousands in Atlanta
who believe that Mary’ Phagan’s
slayer walks about to-day a free man
as another battles for his life accused
of his crime.
Victim Only a Child.
There w’as mystery in the famous
case of Henry Clay Beattie, the Vir
ginia aristocrat, w’ho met death in the
electric chair for slaying his wife
after his infatuation for Beulah Bin-
ford.
But again, we hav e a feature of the
Phagan case which was missing in
the Beattie tragedy that makes the
Atlanta mystery as grippingly pitiful
as the Virginia problem was sordid.
For In the Phagan case a child is
one of the principals. All the world
may love a lover, but all th e world
loves a child more. And when the
innocent, w’istful, appealing face of
the little factory girl first appeared
in the public prints more heart
strings w’ere touched than there w’ere
thrills caused in all the sinister rev
elations of the Virginia trial.
The child Interest has made many
a case appeal to the public interest
more than struggles of statesmen,
ravages of nature, or even the love
of man for woman. The entire
United States waited breathlessly for
news of the capture of the kidnapers
of little Billy Whitla, the sturdy
Pennsylvania lad. in 3909.
But when the kidnapers were taken
and Billy Whitla returned safe and
sound and maybe a little happier
from his thrilling experience to the
home of his parents, the public forgot
all about little Billy and to-day, in
four short years, there are few who
remember his case at all. For Billy
Whitla lived. Mary Phagan died.
Lamana Case Was Absorbing.
In 1907 the hearts of every- mother
and father in the Southland bled for
the wealthy father and mother of the
little Lamana boy, w’ho was taken
from their New Orleans home by
members of the Crescent City Mafia.
Interest was intense at every period
of the search and public sentiment
was kindled near to the blazing
point when the beheaded body of the
boy was found in a Louisiana swamp.
But as thrilling as was the Lamana
case, it did not have that quality that
is so essential to make a case uni
versally absorbing. The Lamanas
were foreigners, the kidnapers were
foreigners. And Americans want an
American in their news stories. i

fes mJKST FAIR STREET.
In the selection of the twelve men
to comprise the jury which will try’
Leo M. Frank for the murder of Mary
Phagan, one of the bitterest contests
of the great legal battle which begins
Monday is anticipated.
That counsel for both the defense
and State will probe deep into the
character of each of the men drawn
from the venire of 144 who take the
stand for examination for Jury serv
ice in this case is certain. The attor
neys will endeavor to unearth in the
character of the prospective Juryman
such traits as they may believe favor
able or unfavorable to their case.
The slightest objection will be used
to disqualify the man from becoming
a member of the deciding tribunal.
Under the cross-examination of such
skilled lawyers as those who will ap
pear in the Phagan case no iota of
Information which will tend to sway
the verdict will remafn concealed to
be carried Into the Jury’ box and fight
against the delivery of justice.
Every man of the twelve w’ho will
be chosen will be a c an open book to
the counsel of both sides. Not only
will his mentality be shrewdly gauged
with respect to the evidence to be
presented, but his past life will be
searched for a flaw in the man s
make-up which ma*’ prove a weak
link in governing his decisions.
Difficulty Exoected.
In view of the widespread discus
sion which the lengthy investigation
of the murder has aroused throughout
Fulton County, great difficulty is ex
pected in securing men of unbiased
minds.
Probably the first question to be
asked each venireman when he takes
the stand, after being sworn, will be:
“Have you formed and expreasel
any opinion in regard to the guilt cr
innocence of the prisoner at the bar?”
The negative answer to this ques
tion will but begin the examination
of the prospective Juryman. Since
the crime of which the pencil factory
superintendent is accused is punish
able by death, the next question in
importance, especially to the prosecu
tion will be:
“Are you conscientiously opposed to
capital punishment?”
By an affirmative answer to either
of the two questions above, the
venireman undoubtedly will be dis
qualified from Jury duty.
Owing to the vast importance of
the Frank trial, given impetus by its
wide publicity, the great weight
which will necessarily be assumed
with jury service will not be looked
favorably upon by most men, it is
declared, and the ease with w'hich by
one answer this duty can be avoided,
much difficulty is anticipated in se
curing the twelve men.
Each Minutely Examined.
Upon each man, however, who
passes satisfactorily the two chal
lenging questions of opinion and cap
ital punishment, the opposing coun
sel w’ill center their fire of penetrat
ing questions.
Taken from the criminal code of
Georgia, the following questions and
provisions will govern the question
ing in the witness chair of the pros
pective juryman:
“Have you, from having seen the
crime committed, or having heard any
of the testimony delivered on oath,
formed and expressed any opinion in
regard to the guilt or Innocence of the
prisoner at the bar?"*
“Have you any prejudice or bias
resting on your mind either for or
against the prisoner at the bar?”
"Is your mind perfectly impartial
between the State and the accused?"
If he shall answer these questions
satisfactorily, he shall be adjudged
and held a competent Juror in all
cases where the offense does not In
volve the life of the accused, but when
it does, the following additional ques.
tion shall be put to him:
‘‘Are you conscientiously opposed to
capital punishment?”
Judge's Word Final.
If he shall answer this question in
the negative, he shall be held a com
petent Juror, provided, nevertheless,
that either the State or the defendant
shall have the right to Introduce evi
dence before the judg'e to show that
the answers, or any of them, are un
true; and it shall be the duty of the
judge to determine upon the truth of
such answers as may be thus ques
tioned before the court.
If a juror shall answ er any of these
questions so as to render him incom
petent. or he shall be so found by the
judge, he shall be set aside for cause.
The State or the accused may make
either of the following objections:
That he is not a citizen, resident cf
the. county.
That he is over 60 or under 21 years
of age.
That he is an idiot or lunatic, or
intoxicated.
That he is so near of kindred to the
prosecutor, or the accused, or the de
ceased. as to disqualify him by law
from serving on the jury.
20 Challenges for the Defense.
Every person indicted for a crime
or offense whi~h may subject him to
death, or four years’ imprisonment,
may peremptorily challenge twenty of
the jurors impaneled to try him. The
State shall be allowed one-half the
peremptory challenges allowed the
prisoner.
