MEXICO’CITY. Aug. 20.—The story
of how President Huerta sent an “ul
timatum” to the United States Em
bassy Monday night demanding im
mediate recognition of Mexico by the
United States was told to-day for the
first time
President Huerta, in replying to the
note from President Wilson, offering
suggestions for the pacification of
Mexico, rejected all President Wil
son’s proposals and declared that the
Mexican regime must be recognized
by Jhe United States within twelve
hours.
The Mexican Ministers knew the
contents of the note, having had a
hand in its formation Acting Foreign
Minister Gamboa objected to the ag
gressive tone, but War Minister Blan-
quet and Minister of the Interior
Urrutla thought that the tone of the
note was no stronger than the oc
casion demanded.
Accordingly this note, which had
all the qualifications of an Interna
tional ultimatum, was transmitted to
Charge d’Affaires O’Shaughnessy, of
the United States Embassy. Mr.
O’Shaughnessy and John Lind, the*
special envoy from President Wilson,
lost no time in breaking the seals.
Both were amazed at the tenor of the
note, and the truculent threats of war
unless the United States recognized
Mexico.
“I must see President Huerta at
once,” declared Mr. Lind.
Goes to President's Room.
Despite the fact that the special
envoy had not been invited to the
National Palace, being persona non
grata to the Mexican Government
and in spite of the fact that the hour
was nearly midnight. Mr. Lind anJ
Mr. O’Shaughnessy jumped into an
automobile and sped to the National
Palace. %
Lights were blazing in the presi
dential suite so the belated visitors
knew’ that Huerta was at home, but
was he “at home” in an official sense
to his visitors? That was the Im
portant question.
Mr. O’Shaughnessy was recognized
by the sentries at the gate, but they
turned questioning eyes upon Mr.
Lind who stood impatiently awaiting
entrance.
* “It is official business; we must
enter and see the President,” declared
the Charee d’Affaires.
After a sight delay the men were
permitted to enter the visitors’ cham
ber. Almost immediately Huerta en
tered. The President had discarded
his military jniform and was dressed
in civilian at til«?.
Talks Plainly to Huerta.
In spite cf the infringement on
diplomatic uage, Mr. Lind proceeded
right away t5 enter upon his diplo
matic work. He told Huerta of the
disastrous consequences w’hlch must
necessarily fo'Jow the transmission of
the ultimatum to Washington.
So forcefully did he talk that the
hard lines of determination in the
old soldier’s face relaxed and he list
ened patiently fvith few interruptions
Huerta got ip and paced up and
down the roon as he replied. He
said that he telieved the course of
the United Stetes would wreck the
Mexican Goveriment, but that hi did
not want to plinge his already im
poverished country into war. He
finally consented to cut out the de
mand for reco^iitlon from his reply
to the Wilson note. although no
amount of pettuasion could induce

tion by the Department of Justice
upon the conduct of Federal Judge
Emory Speer, of Georgia, the Fifth
Circuit.
Various charges against the
Judge have been brought during

the investigation of which Attor
ney General McReynolds was to
present a report to-day has been
conducted during the last year by
special agents.

Wife Spurns Court's
Advice to Couple to
Learn to Forgive
Recorder Pro Tem Preston Wednes
day *norn!ng from the bench in po
lice court took occasion to dish out
some good advice to promote har
mony among young married couples
the keynote of which was the admo
nition to “learn to forgive.”
His remarks were particularly di
rected to Mrs. Lutle Allen, of No. 58
Tennelle street, and her husband, C.
C. Allen, when Mrs. Allen was ar
raigned at the instigation of her
brother. Mrs. Allen, following a clash
with her husband recently, Is living
apart from Allen, but he appeared in
court as an active party to the hear
ing.
The court’s advice went home to Al
len. but Mrs. Allen intimated that she
was far from a reconciliation.
SHERBROOKE, QUEBEC, Aug. 20.
A writ of habeas corpus in the case
of Harry Tha^’ was granted by Hon.
Justice Globensky shortly after 2
o’clock this afternoon, and to-morrow
morning at 10 o’clock Thaw will be
brought before the court. At that
time arguments as to the merits ot
the petition for Thaw’s release will be
heard.
A report from Albany, N. Y., says
that the Superintendent of Prisons ot
that State lias been advised by the
Consul General at Ottawa that Thaw
will be deported to Rouse’s Point, N.
Y. The report is news to the au
thorities here.
Thaw has plunged into his fight to
keep from being returned to the Mat-
teawan Asylum with vigor and confi
dence.
“Thaw will be discharged from
custody,” said Mr. Shurtleff. “I am
confident that he can not be held.”
After the petition for the w r rit of
habeas corpus had been written out,
it was taken to the old stone Jail
on a hilltop overlooking the St. Fran
cis River, where Thaw swore to the
truth of the allegations.
Carnegie Fails to Arrive.
The principal reason for the con
tinuation of the arguments until to
morrow was th e failure of Mr. and
Mrs. George Lauder Carnegie to ar
rive on schedule time.
Counsel representing Thaw was
augmented by the retention of
Charles D. White, of Sherbrooke. All
Thaw’s attorneys seem confident that
he will be freed. They claim that
Thaw had in his possession a rail
road ticket for Etetroit, Mich., de
spite the fact that ne was headed to
ward the coast when caught.
Thaw was examined by Dr. Noel,
the prison physician, after he arose.
The fugitive seemed to be in fine
physical condition.
Thaw did not have any ready cash
to-day and made a “touch” from the
Jailer in order to purchase some fresh
clothing.
A great majority of stores closed
so that the employees could have an
opportunity to see the prisoner on
his way to the courthouse. Every
where were heard comments and ex
pressions of sympathy with Thaw.
Fully 1,500 people crowded Into the
courtroom before court convened. The
women were attractively gowned.
They showed great interest in the
case. The sympathy of every one in
the room apparently was with Thaw.
It is believed here that if Thaw is
released on a writ of habeas corpus
he probably will be rearrested at once
on some other charge. Indications
are that he will be detained here the
balance of this week. In fact, it is
a certainty that the case will be def
initely decided here and that action
of no kind will be taken elsewhere.
Since Thaw was arrested yesterday
in Coaticook, 25 miles from here, aft
er crossing the border in a carriage,
he has been buoyed up by the cheer
ful belief that the Canadian Govern
ment will not send him back to New
York.
Says Wife Needn't Fear.
“I have studied every legal phase
of my case and have arrived at the
belief that I am safe here,” said Thaw.
“My plans did not alone include my
physical escape. I looked into the
legal feature to establish my status
in any other State than New' York
and any other country than the
United States. I am not a. danger
ous man. I do not seek vengeance.
My wife, Evelyn Nesblt Thaw, need
not fear me. Nor need anyone else
fear me. All I want - is peaceful and
legs! liberty. I feel that I am perfectly
safe. I have studied law ever since 1
w'ts admitted to Matteawan. and 1
believe that I am qualified to speak in
this matter.
“Statements to the effect that 1
only sought liberty to kill are sense-

Jock McNeil, known in the sporting
world as one of the gamest and clean
est motorcycle racers who ever cir
cled a saucer track, died early Wed
nesday morning at the Grady Hospi
tal of injuries received Monday aft
ernoon in practice at Jack Prince’s
Drome. McNeil never recovered con
sciousness after his fall.
The little Scotchman probably was
the most popular rider who ever ap
peared In Atlanta. His riding was a
revelation to those unfamiliar with
the game. He brought to hip work a
strange mingling of Scotch shrewd
ness and hardy courage, and a won
derful dash and abandon that seemed
to bespeak a warm-blooded Da tin
strain in his ancestry. He was more
than a merely brilliant rider; he was
really a “speed marvel."
The injury that caused Ills death
was the result of this strange enthu
siasm. At the suggestion of some of
his admirers, he was “riding tho
white” in practice—sending his pow
erful J. A. P. flyer by sheer speed
up above the banked turns of the
’drome, until It was hanging, fly-like,
to the vertical white rim that topped
the bank, sustained by nothing but
the centrifugal force attained by a
frightful velocity of 90 miles an
hour. The rim, not intended to
withstand such a strain, yielded, and
Jock and his great machine hurtled
diagonally from the break to the bot
tom of the track.
High School Boy Dies
In Fall Off Bicycle.
minutes after the boy plunged from
the wheel, but young Davis was dead.
The body was carried to the home of
his father, on College avenue, and
later w’us taken to the morgue of
P. J. Bloomfield, in Atlanta.
It Is not known w hat caused young
Davis to fall from his wheel. He and
young Hicks, who are chums, got
out their wheels shortly after day
light Wednesday morning and rode
through Kirkwood and Oakhurst,
turning Into Decatur at DeKalb ave
nue, which is a stone and gravel-
paved thoroughfare.
They had gone but a short distance
when the front wheel of young
Davis’ machine lurched sideways, the
boy tried to steady the bicycle, then
suddenly threw up his hands and
plunged headfirst to the hard pave
ment. He groaned end turned over
once and then lay silent.
Young Hicks, badly frightened
when his companion failed to arise,
called some men who happened to
come along at that time, and then
hurried to the home of Dr. Phillips.
The boy’s skull was fractured and his
face was severely bruised.
Young Davis’ father is a banker
and also owns manufacturing inter
ests in Dallas, Oa. He recently mov
ed to Decatur, and his family was
well known there.
The boy has been attending the
Atlanta High School for the past
year or two, and was well known
among his school.cates. He is sur
vived by his parents, two sisters, Mrs.
M. Gheesling and Mrs. T. D. Hall,

tenced to be hanged September 5
was granted another respite of one
month by Governor Slaton Wednes
day morning.
It was announced In the office of
the Governor to-day that the further
respite was granted because the Gov
ernor will be away during the next
ten days, and will therefore not have
sufficient time to consider the case
before the date set for the execu
tion of the condemned man.
All evidence and papers in the case
have been in the hands of the Slate
Prison Commission for several weeks,
but no action will be taken now.
All of September probably will be
devoted to considering the case and
hearing those who are interested in
it. the recommendation of the board
probably will go to the Governor a
few days before the date now set for
the execution, October 5.

Harry Scott, Pinkerton detective, was recalled in an attack
on Frank’s own story, at the afternoon session Wednesday.
W. T. Dobbs, a member of the city fire department, directly
contradicted W. M. Matthews, one of the defense's witnesses and
motorman of the car on which Mary Phagan came to town April
26, in the course of his testimony in the Frank trial Wednesday
aftrenoon.
Dobbs testified that he saw Matthews about three days after
the crime and that Matthews told him that Mary Phagan had rid
den with him that day, that she got off at Marietta and Forsyth
streets, and that the Epps boy was with her.
Matthews testified when on the stand that the Phagan girl did
not get off at Marietta and Forsyth streets, but rode on to Broad
and Hunter streets, and that he did not see the Epps boy with her.
L: S. Kendrick, who was night watchman at the pencil factory
before Newt Lee was engaged, testified that he had gone to the
factory frequently on Saturday afternoons and on occasions had
seen Jim Conley as well as other negroes hanging around on the
first fioor. Kendrick also said he had run a tape through the
time clock since the murder, making a record upon it, and that it
had required only three or four minutes to do it. The tape was
placed in evidence.
Ivy Jones, a negro driver, tes
tified to seeing Jim Conley be
tween 1 and 2 o’clock the after
noon of the murder. He said that
he walked with Conley toward
Conley’s home and left him at
Hunter and Davis streets.
J. D. Reed, a tile layer, was called
for the purpose of impeaching the
testimony of W. T. Hollis, conductor
on the car on which Mary Phagan
came to town. Reed said Hollis had
told him that Epps had got on the
car with the girl and that the two
had talked together as though they
were sweethearts.
Progresses In Attack *
On Frank’s Character.
Solicitor Dorsey renewed his de
termined attack upon the character of
Deo M. Frank Wednesday, and for the
first time since the testimony of Jim
Conley and the insurance man, Ash
ley Jones, was able to make a little
progress in the introduction of this
sort of testimony.
Having found the opening, th© So
licitor made the most of his advan
tage, and before the noon recess had
arrived ten witnesses, most of them
young girls, had sworn that Frank's
general character was bad and that
his moral character was the same.
The most sensational bit of testi
mony Involved one of the foreladies.
Two of the girls who formerly had
worked in the factory, Miss Myrtice
Cato and Miss Maggie Griffin, testi
fied that they had seen Frank go into
the dressing room on the fourth floor
with Miss Rebecca Carson, who was
a witness for Frank only a few days
ago.
Miss Cato sad she had seen the two
go into the dressing room on two
occasions. Miss Grffin testified it had
occurred three or four times to her
knowledge.
Miss Carson was called by the So
licitor and Indignantly denied that
such an occurrence ever had taken
place.
Saw Frank Lay Hand
On Mary’s Shoulder.
Of even greater importance, al
though of less sensational interest,
was the testimony of Miss Dewey
Hewell, who sworye that Frank was
in the habit of talking frequently to
Mary Phagan; that he called her by
name, and that he stood close to her
and laid Mr hand familiarly on her
shoulder. She was not able to relate
the subject of the conversations when
she was cross-examined. She did not
know but that Frank might have been
talking about her work.
Miss Ruth Robinson corroborated
the Hewell girl in her testimony.
Miss Hewell was brought from the
Home of the Good Shepherd in Cin -
clnnati to testify
