— — — — — CRACKERS LOSE The Atlanta Georgian. Read for Profit---GEORGIAN WANT ADS---Use for Results ATLANTA, GA., WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 6,1913. By Cogyrjjpht. 1906, Sourglan Co. 2 CENTS. p m a o t r£° Word by T. R. Worth rillDIIPTrD Army Under Wilson, MLlDUdlLH Says Gov. Johnson The court refused to entertain the motion. Judge Roan, following the arguments of counsel on both sides in regard to eliminating part of Conley’s testimony, said: “I have my serious doubts about the admissi bility of this evidence but it is already admitted and so you may expunge it from the records, but you can’t erase it from the minds of the jury. I rule that it is ad missible. “What that little Phagan girl said to Epps is not ad missible- ’’ Judge Roan ruled further that Dalton’s testimony regarding the events prior to the day of the murder would be admissible. “That suits us,” remarked Dorsey aside. “This man Dalton doesn’t know anything about the happen ings of April 26” : LOS ANGELES, Aug. 6.—Criticism of the course of the Wilson Adminis tration was contained In an address by Governor Hiram Johnson, who was the Vice Presidential candidate on the Progressive ticket last year, speaking at the first anniversary cel ebration of the Progressives. ‘‘The National Administration has not come up to expectations.” said Governor Johnson. "We have a for eign policy that is weak and vacil lating. One word from Theodore Roosevelt is worth a whole army un der Woodrow Wilson. "We were shocked by the white washing of Ballinger by Taft. That differed in no essential from the whitewashing of McReynolds by Wil son.’* When Jim Conley left the witness stand Wednes day, the State’s case against Leo Frank, charged with the murder of Mary Phagan, practically was completed. Solicitor Dorsey announced when court reconvened in the afternoon that he proposed to call only one or two new witnesses. It was predicted that even these would be prevented from testifying as the result of Judge Roan’s expected ruling on the line of testimony that they were expected to give. Witness Dalton Is Excused. With the testimony of Dalton rnled out, as well as that of young George Epps, whom Dorsey proposed to recall and ques tion concerning remarks of Mary Phagan in respect to Frank’s conduct, the probability was strong at the opening of the after noon session that Dr. H. F. Harris and possibly one other witness would be the only ones called by the State before closing the presentation of direct evidence. Dr. Harris collapsed when on the stand last Friday before the Solicitor had completed his questioning and before Reuben Arnold had been given the opportunity for cross-examination. The Solici tor planned to quiz Dr. Harris more closely concerning the condi tion of the young girl’s body and organs and also to bring out more in detail the physician’s conclusion that the girl must have been killed within half an hour after she left home because of the undi gested condition of the cabbage he found in her stomach. Hot Argument Over Excluding Testimony. - The fight to exclude Conley’s testimony in regard to Frank’s alleged conduct proved one of the exciting incidents of the morn ing session. The argument was still in progress when court ad journed for the noon recess. That and Conley’s sensational declar ation that Frank had hid the murder victim’s silver-plated mesh bag, for which the detectives have been searching for months, in the safe in the factory office immediately after the crime were the features of the day. Reuben Arnold argued that it was inadmissible because irrele vant and immaterial, and that it was a violation of the general' principle in law that because A committed X last year, it can not be introduced to show that he committed X of which he is now accused. Early Ruling Is Promised. Combating the contention of Attorney Hooper that the objec tion of the defense had not been made until the lawyers for Frank had cross-examined the negro and found that they could get no reversal of statements from him, Arnold cited cases in a large number of States indicating that it is a well defined privilege that testimony may be stricken out at the instance of the defense even after the cross-examination has taken place. Judge Roan said that he would make his ruling early in the afternoon session. Colonel Arnold grew faint during the argument and got the judge’s consent to talk sitting. Attorney Rosser's manner was angry and threatening when he arose for the re-cross examination. He began at once a vicious at tack on Conley’s story of the mesh bag. He asked when Conley first told this remarkable tale. Conley said he couldn’t remember. “Why didn’t you tell all this when you were telling ‘the whole Continued on Page 2, Column 1. .

Resolution to Report the Hixon- Searcy Liquor Bill Defeated. Tax Plot Charged. The filibuster in the House against the resolution of Kidd, of Baker, which instructed the Temperance Committee to report back the Hixon- Searcy bill for action, and by which Wohlwender, of M,uscogee, consumed the entire time of the House Tues day. came to an end Wednesday morning at 10 o’clock with victory resting with the forces against the bill. In response to a point of order raised by Stewart, of Coffee, Speaker Burwell ruled that Kidd's resolution was not In order for consideration Wednesday, and the efforts of the temperance forces to force a hearing on the bill were therefore in vain. The poirt raised by Mr. Stewart was that. Inasmuch as the resolution was introduced Tuesday and specifi cally called upon the Temperance Committee to report the bill back to-morrow," it asking the com. was a heavy snowfall in the Yellow- uYufiri Pnrk la-rt nigh; ana the snoan-^ to perfaVm a' physfea! impo. 1 - sibllUy, and was therefore not In or der. Wright Objects to Decision. Wright, of Floyd, who is generally credited with being behind Mr. Kidd in the introduction of the resolution, protested vigorously against the de- sion of the Speaker. "Doesn’t the Speaker intend to hear those who favor this resolution?" he demanded "You are out cf order,” the Speaker replied. "The resolution has been ruled out of order, and is not now un der discussion. 1 Representative Wohlwender. back ed by Myrick and Shuptrine, of Chat ham; Nunnally, of Floyd, and others of the anti-dry forces, appeared when the House convened to-day determin ed to continue the filibuster until Mr. Kidd consented to withdraw his res olution. This Mr. Kidd and the tem perance cohorts absolutely refused to do. Stewart Then Finds Loophole. Conferences between the prohis and the antis were numerous, but barren of result, and it looked as though the filibuster would continue, with the ai.ti-dry people holding the whip hand indefinitely, when Mr. Stewart found the loophole through which the resolution was riddled. The effect of the resolution and the filibuster has been to draw the line sharply between the anti-dry and the temperance forces, and to smother the more important question of tax revision. The victory of the antis precludes the possibility of the Searcy bill getting a hearing at this session, inasmuch as the Rules Committee takes charge and no resolutions sim ilar to the Kidd resolution can be introduced. Claims Anti-Tax Plot. Mr. Wohlwender, whose strong lungs and determination defeated the resolution, voiced the opinion Wed nesday morning that the resolution was an outgrowth of the tax revision fight. "Sheppard, of Sumter; Stovall, of Elbert, and the others who are fight ing tax revision were behind the res olution," declared Mr. Wohlwender. “They hoped to get that bill brought out because they knew If the House once got busy on It no tax measures could be passed at this session."

T Bulgaria’s Enemies Relent; Intercede For Conquered Ally Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. BUCHAREST, Aug. 6.—Sympathy m&y yet prevent Bulgaria from los ing all the spoils she won in the Turko-Balkan war. Premier Paaitch, of Servia, and Premier Venizelos. of Greece, to-day wired their respective sovereigns for permission to extend the Bulgarian frontier so as to in clude a big area of the territory in Northeastern Macedonia which was taken away from Turkey. It had been the original intention of the Servians omd Greeks to punish Bulgaria for the atrocities of her sol diers by refusing to allow the Bulgars to profit by the war. So eloquently did the Bulgarian peace representatives plead their cause and so graphically did they paint the sufferings undergone by the Bulgarians in the war with Turkey to secure victory for the Balkan league that the Serb and Greek en voys relented.
