gf^f^s IF'Vfy — SAYS FRANK LOOKED INTO /GIRLS’ DRESSING ROOM 3 M The Atlanta Georgian Read for Profit---GEORGIAN WANT ADS— Use for Results VOL. XII. XO. 12. ATLANTA, GA., SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1913. 2 CENTS. p ^° EOF FIG tK FIILS TO I / LATEST NEWS Two factory girls, one of them defending Leo M. Frank with all the eloquence at her command, and the other admitting that she had known of the factory su perintendent opening the door to the girls’ dressing room on three different occasions and looking in, form ed the center of interest among the score of witnesses who were called Saturday by the defense. They were [iss Irene Jackson and Miss Sarah Barnes. Miss Jackson, daughter of County Policeman Jackson, testi fied on direct examination that she never had known of any im proper conduct on the part of Frank, and that his character was good. Cross-questioned by Solicitor Dorsey she admitted that she had been in the room where the girls change from their street to their working clothes and had witnessed Frank open the door, look in and then turn around and leave. Once, she said, Miss Emmeline Mayfield was in the room with her. On another time her sister was there, and on a third occasion, she said Miss Mamie Kitchen was the other girl in the room. She said that her sister had started to quit at the time Frank ^opened the door when she was in the dressing room. The witness so was asked if N. V. Darley, general manager of the factory, rer had made the remark at the time several girls were thinking quitting the factory directly after the murder that “if the girls ick by us through this, they won’t lose anything by it.’’ Miss Jackson said she had heard Darley say this. Miss Jackson quit >rk the day after the body was found. ''rank’s Mother Again on Stand. Another long string of character witnesses occupied most of t\e session which was adjourned shortly after 1 o’clock for the day. Mrs. Rae Frank, the defendant’s mother, was placed on the Stand at the beginning of court, but remained there only long enough to be questioned somewhat in detail as to the means of Frank’s relatives. One of the sensations of the day came during the testimony of W. D. McWorth, Pinkerton operative, who testified to the find ing on the first floor of the pencil factory a pay envelope with Mary Phagan’s initials and number on it, a bloody club, part of a whip, a piece of rope and spots near the trapdoor leading into the basement resembling bloodstains. Extcaly the value of his finds did not develop either from the examination by the defense or the prosecution. Dorsey, however, sought to show that the Pinkertons dealt in bad faith with the city detective department by not reporting their discoveries as soon as made. Court adjourned with the testimony of Harlee Branoh, an At lanta Journal reporter, who estimated the time it required Jim Conley to re-enact his version of the disposal of Mary Phagan’s body, up to the writing of the notes as 47 minutes. Girl Vehemently Defends Frank. 4 Miss Sarah Barnes was Frank’s vehement defender. The [first question asked her was the signal for a torrent of words that neither Attorney Arnold nor the Solicitor was able to stop until she paused for breath. “Do you know Leo M. Frank, the defendant in this case?’’ ■Tas asked. She replied that she not only knew him, but that she knew he was a good man, a perfect gentleman, always good to the girls and everyone else in the factory, never attempting any familiarities or talking to the girls except in regard to their work and never being guilty of any of the charges that have been made against him by the State.

Autos Block Fire Engines at Blaze Near Five Points A lighted cigar or cigarette dropned from a room in the Empire Building set fire to the roof of Wil liams House No. 3, on Marietta street, near Five Points, about noon Satur day, and a crowd of several thousand people quickly gathered. On account of the great number of automobiles and other vehicles parked in front of the building und all along Marietta street the fire de partment had some difficulty in get ting the trucks near enough to he effective. Quick work of the fireman stopped the spread of the flames, vir tually no damage being done. Chief Cummings stated after the fire that it was only Providence that enabled the firemen to get near the fire before it gained dangerous pro portions, and that if the practice of allowing automobiles to blockade the streets is continued, it is only a mat ter of time until a serious fire re sults. Shoots Man in Court As Jury Frees Him MONTGOMERY, Aug. 16.—As a jury in the City Court returned a verdict acquitting Will Smith, a ne gro, of having shot Robert Sears, a constable and former deputy sheriff, the officer drew his revolver and fired several shots in the courtroom before he was overpowered.

ALBANY, N. Y., Aug. 16.—Neither drastic nor violent steps will be taken by Lieutenant Governor Martin H. Glynn to force William Sulzer, the impeached Governor of New York, from office—at least not to-day. Ow ing to the fact that this was a half holiday at the State offices, Mr. Glynn spent but a few minutes at the Capi tol, and, while both Sulzer and Glynn forces refused to budge an inch, mat ters were at a deadlock. Accompanied by his bodygiia^ Governor Sulzer walked from the executive mansion to the Capitol, where he plunged into State busi ness, Just as though his right to ex ercise the gubernatorial prerogatives were not contested. Lieutenant Governor Glynn, Who claims the powers of Acting Governor under the Constitution until Mr. Sill* zer is brought to trial on September 18, went from the Capitol to the of fices of his newspaper and announced he would spend the afternoon at an athletic meet. He denied that, like Napoleon, he would lift the power of ruling New York State on the bay- oi.ets of the National Guard. Lack of Trouble a Surprise. Absence of an actual outbreak to day was a surprise to many who ex pected to see the executive chamber a battleground for the Sulzer and Tammany forces. Mr. Sulzer now virtually stands alone, having been deserted by the members of his cabinet, who havo allied themselves to the Glynn forces. But Sulzer refuses to abdicate, de spite the fact that the. ranks of his political enemies hav? been strength ened during the last 24 hours. Lieutenant Governor Glynn, who H now signing State documents with this signature, "Martin H. Glyi Ant ing Governor, State of New York." announced that, in spite of any ob structions {T .own in his way by the Sulzer legal forces, he would centime to administer gubernatorial affair* pending dr. Sulzer’s trial for alleged high crimes and misdemeanors Sep tember 18. Both Sides Fear Trick. Both sides are taking elaborate pre cautions to guard against a trick. Throughout the night armed guards stood watch over each State depart ment, while lawyers and legislators involved In the struggle were trailed by private.detectives. Mr. Sulzer was in retirement planning a new legal move with his counsel. Messenger boys with Washington and New York City telegrams could not find the Gov ernor, but members of the "inner cir cle" took charge of the dispatches, saying they would find the Governor. Leaders of the antl-Sulzer faction made the threat that Mr. Glynn, now having control of the State Military Department, would actually invade the executive chamber. "He will get a mighty warm re ception," declared the Sulzer adher ents, who are few, but courageous. Some Fear M«rtial Law. Home residents of this city, realiz ing the intense seriousness of the sit uation, fear that conditions may be come so grave that martial law will have to bo declared. It was assumed that Governor Sul zer to-day would reply to the second note from Lieutenant Governor Glynn, demanding the unconditional surren der of all prerogatives by Mr. Sulzer and the abdication of the Governor. Counsel were with the Governor at the beginning of the official day, and it was reported that the Governor was urged to take a fling at Tammany Hall. The First National Bank to-day re fused to honor checks vouched for by Martin H. Glynn as Acting Governor. The cnecks were for the payment of attaches of the Depariment of the Ad jutant General.
