THh A TLA AT A UWJKItJ.A.'; A h U M. \ Continued from Page 3. r body.” I jumped up and, open ing my clothes, let the detectives see for themselves. ‘‘I then gave them a statement, willingly and freely and without any reluctance. Then one of them said something about ex amining my linen at my home. I knew that none of it had gone to the laundry at that time and in vited the detectives to make a S-arch, which they did. Mr. Her bert Schiff went with them. They were very well satisfied with the s arch, or rather, they found nothing. Employed Pinkertons To Aid the Police. “That afternoon I telephoned Mr. Schiff to get Mr. Montag’s permission to employ the Pin kertons to aid the police. I told him I would be down about 3 o'clock. ' I went around to Mr. Wolfs- h°imers. got into His automobile and went down town. I saw Mr. Scijff, Mr. Darley and a number O' others, including Mr. Quinn. T/.r. Quinn said he wanted to take me back to the metal room •.her- it was claimed blood spots had been discovered and where the haii on the lathe was discov- errd by Mr. Barrett. ‘ I examined them closely, par ticularly the spots. I did not ex amine them standing up. I got down-on my knees and examined them with a strong electric flash light and I arrived at certain con clusions. “That floor is grease, soap and cfirt covered to a thickness vary ing from a quarter to half an inch. “To return to that spot. I don’t claim it was not blood. The space where these spots were adjoins the ladies’ dressing room. There have been accidents which may not have been brought out in this trial. We do not report every time one of the employees cuts his finger. “ihere are all sorts of paints around the factor I have seen girls drop bottles in the hall, not exactly at that point, but near there. But the point about those spots is that when I examined them the^e was over them an ac cumulation of dirt not of days or weeks, but of at least three months. Phoned to Prevent Alarm of Family. “The white stuff was not fresh. |t was dry . And another thing: if that compound had been put on the blood fresh, it would have been pink and not the white that it was. ‘Now, when the Atlanta pa pers containing the statement that I was detained were pub lished, I telegraphed Mr. A. R. Montag to communicate with my uncle that I was no longer; that i had been released. I did this because I knew they would be alarmed if they saw the sensa tional stories in the papers. } “Harry Scctt of the Pinkertons came in and spoke to me in the presence of Mr. Darley. He said he had not read the newspapers. I told him all that had been pub lished and in addition the state ment that Mrs. White had seen a negro about 1 o’clock on the first floor. “After I had told him all I knew, I took him over the fac tory. On the second floor, I no ticed him put several articles in his pocket. One Inoticed was a piece of cord such as I learned had been found around Mary Phagan’s neck. I asked him as to the rates of th e Pinkertons. He told me and I informed Mr. Mon tag, who approved them. “Mr. Scott said that at it was the usual custom of the Pinker- tony, he would work hand in hand with the police. I went home and found my family there and sat up until about 10 o’clock, when I went to bed. Gave Officers All Information Wanted. “Tuesday a. m. I arose between 7 and 7:30 and caught the 8:10 car. I remember I got to the fac tory at 8:30. I went right into my routine work and at 9:30 o’clock went on my regular trip to Montag's. I then went baci< to the factory and to work again. “After a while Detectives Black * and Scctt came and told me they wanted me to go to the station house. I went and I have been incarcerated since then. “I went down in an automo bile. They took me to Chief Lan- ford's office. I answered ail the questions thev asked. In a few minutes Detectives Scott and • Black came in with a bundle. “They me showed me a piece of material and asked me if I had a shirt like that. I told them I never had. They showed it to Newt Lee and thev said he ad- m"tted having a shirt like that but drclared he had never worn it. “They then unfolded a bloody shirt. “About 10 o’clock Mr. Rosser came down and said Chief Beav ers thought it best for me to re main at the station, and they thought I might employ a super numerary to avoid being locked up. ! assented, because, of course, I could not do anything else. “They wanted a sample of my hand'Ar'ting. I told them I was willing. They dictated it word for word, spelling the unusual words. Detectives Starnes took me down to the desk sergeant and search ed me. “I was locked up in a cell while my father-in-law was providing a supernumerary. “The detectives came to me and said: ‘Mr. Frank, we would like to talk to you a little bit.’ We went into a little room and they stressed the possibility of a cou ple being let in the pencil fac tory at night. Then they said: ’You talk to Lee. You are his boss. He will talk to you.’ “The detectives told me to go after him strong and tell him we would both go to hell. Detective Black said that. “I went in and talked to Lee. I tried to get him to talk. I said: ‘Newt, you had better tell every thing you know or ou will get us both into trouble.’ He stuck to his statement that he had told the whole truth. “Then the detectives came in and I was initiated to the Atlanta police department third degree for the first time. Detective Black went after that poor negro. He called him every vile name he could think of. He fairly streamed with profanity. “I want to touch upon a few accusations that have been level ed against me, besides this crime. The first is that I would not talk to the detectives. Let us look into ihat and see if the-e is any truth in thet. I went there Sunday, Monday and Tuesday and dis cussed the matter freely and openly. I gave them a written statement. I talked to them at midnight. I talked to Newt Lee at their instance. What did they do? They grilled him. They twisted my words. They put words into his mouth he never heard. After that I said I washed my hands of them. They came to me again—Scott and Black. Black said: ‘We are suspicious of that man Darley. Now, open up and tell us a 1 1 you know about him/ Could Not Trust Even His Own Detectives. * “I said: ‘He is the soul of honor.’ “‘Come on, Scott; nothing do ing,’ said Black. “Then I knew I couldn't trust even our own Pinkerton detec tives. After that I treated them with silence. That is why I would not see Conley surrounded by a bevy of city detectives. They would distort; they would falsify. That is the reason I kept my si lence. “Now this second charge that I knew Conley could write. The same day that Conley was arrest ed I was taken to the Tower. There was nothing in the papers that said he could not write. The first thing I knew about it Harry Gottheimer came to see me on May 12 and told me the Pinker tons had turned suspicion toward Conley, but that ne stood them down he could not write. “I told him that I had received too many notes from Conley not to know that he could write. I told Harry that if thev would look into the drawer of the safe in my office they would find a card with a jeweler's name on it, and that if they would go to him he could probably show a contract that Conley had signed. “Gentlemen, the first man that pointed out the way to prove Con ley could write is sitting before you now. “That other insinuation that is so dastardly that it is beyond the comprehension of a human being —that my wife didn’t come to ?ee me—she was down stairs at the police station. Rabbi /larx was with me. I advised with him whether I should let her come up or not. We had to restrain her. Brands Conley Tale As a Tissue of Lies. “I know nothing of the murder of Mary F'hagan. I never saw Jim Conley on that day. “This man Dalton I never saw before this trial. He was never around the factory with Daisy Hopkins that I know of. “Irene Jackson is mistaken. I have no recollection of ever look ing in on the girls in the ladies dressing room when the girls were undressed. ‘That room on the fourth floor has no bath. It is simoly a place in which young ladies can change their outer clothing. I might have have looked in tosee that they were not loafing. I heard com plaints about thorn flirting and I wanted to stop it. “The statement of Jim Conley is a tissue of lies. He never saw me with any women. “Conley's statement about see ing me in improper positions with women is so vile that I have no words fit to denounce it. “My father is notable to work. I have no relative of any means except my uncle in Atlnnfa. “There is no fund raised to pay these attorneys. The fees are paid, but they were paid by sacri ficing a portion of my family’s small estate. “Gentlemen, some newspaper men Have called me tHe silent man in the Tower. I was silent, but it was advisedly. The time to talk is now. The place is here, and I have told you the whole truth.” Frank bowed slightly to the twelve men to whom he had ad dressed this remarkable state ment and then stepped down from the stand. Court adjourned until 9 o’clock Tuesday morning, Hapeville Episode Hinted by State. 1 hat Frank rode on a street ear to Hapeville with a girl the Saturday previous to the murder of Mary Phagan and repeatedly sought to persuade her to leave the car yvith him was the sensa tional testimony Solicitor Dorsey endeavored to get from Mrs. •J. G. Wardlow Monday. Anticipating the nature of the ques tions the Solicitor was about to ask Mrs. Rae Frank, mother of the de ft ndant, stopped her ears with her flngers and then rushed from the room. Attorneys for Frank at first objected to the questions and the jury was excused. It was at this moment that Mrs. Frank made her dramati, exit. She was evidently fearful of repeating her outburst of a few davs ago. Mrs. Wardlaw denied that she ever knew of such a circumstance. She denied as well *hat she had been told of it by Harmes Stanton or H. G. Baker, street car men. Another sensation was created when the defense called to the stand Miss Emmeline Mayfield, the young woman whom the State maintains was in the dressing room when Frank looked in at one time. Miss Mayfield denied this was true. Paving the way for the eagerly awaited statement of Frank, the law yers for the defendant devoted Mon day morning to the gathering up of the story ends of their case, most of the time being occupied with the tes timony of character witnesses. More than a score of women and girls employed in the National Pencil Company were called to tell what they knew of Frank's character and whal they had observed of his conduct about the factory. All asserted that they never bad known personally of any misconduct on the part of the superintendent and never had heard of any. Explains Looking Into Dressing Room. Mrs. Mattie Thompson proved one of the most important of the charac ter witnesses. After testifying to Frank’s good character, Mrs. Thomp son declared that the girls on the fourth floor were in the habit at one time of flirting from the windows of the dressing room. She said that the practice became a matter of comment among the elder women on the fourth floor and that she Anally took It upon herself to report it. Whereupon orders were Issued against It. The testimony of Mrs. Thompson was produced to provide a basis for the contention of the defense that Frank had opened the dressing room door on several occasions solely for th^ purpose of determining if his or ders were being carried out. Miss M. E. Fleming, a stenographer, said that she worked in Frank's office from April to December. 1912, and that she never had observed any miscon duct on the superintendent’s part nor had seen women visiting his office. Godfrey Winecoff superintendent of the lead plant of the National Pencil Company, testified that it was his custom to visit the pencil factory of fice every other Saturday afternoon about 3 o’clock. He said he always found Frank or Schiff. Frank’s as sistant—frequently both—working In the office. He asserted he never saw any women there. A large crowd was attracted to the courtroom by the probability that the prisoner would tell his story Mon day. and the keenest expectancy pre vailed It was problematical whether there would be any cross-examina tion. Ordinarily, of course, the ac cused in a murder case merely makes his statement and the Jury can believe it or discard it entirely as it chooses. It is said, however, that Frank has earnestly urged his lawyers to allow rhe Solicitor to cross-examine him When court reopened Monday So licitor Dorsey took up the cross-ex- imination of Harlee Branch, a re porter for The Atlanta Journal. Took Conley 15 Minutes To Tell Crime Details.
