Recalls Dreyfus Case to Show Mistakes of Circumstantial Convictions

determine his guilt or his innocence.
The jury system came as a result of
a desire to popularize the courts; to
let the people flow through the courts
“God Grant We Get
Away From the Street.”
/ “Inexperienced, as they are, it was
decided that juries were capable of de
ciding questions of fact. Of course
the judg** still decides all legal points.
“My friend Hooper, in reading his
authority just now, used a funny ex
pression. He said your position is no*
different from any man’s who wants
‘to learn the facts; from any man on
the street.”
Hooper objected. “Your honor,” he
said, “I don’t want the speaker to mis
represent my meaning.”
Arnold: “You said street. God
grant that we get away from the
street when we come into court. What
is the use of having any court if we
don’t get away from the street? There
it is the man who has the most friends
who wins. Courts are to protect a
man from the street.
“Gentlemen. sometimes the ver;,
horror of a crime does a man a grave
injustice. Time rights it all, of course,
but at the present blush of a horror
friends can’t judge fairly.
“The crime in this case Is an awful
crime. It was committed by a fiend--
a brute. But no matter how terrible,
no fair-minded man would refuse to
give a man accused of it a fair trial.
“But well-balanced men don’t say
just because he is charged with the
crime by Detective Starnes and So
licitor Dorsey: ‘We will hang him.
TMnkine men weigh the facts.
“Kenley Sample of
Lying Blowhards.”
“I remember a case when Charley
Hill was Solicitor, he asked a pros
pective juror the formal question, and
when he came to that part where the
Solicitor General said: ‘Juror, look on
prisoner; prisoner, look on juror,’ that
old fellow got up and looked him
over and said: ‘Judge, he’s guilty.
That is the way with public senti
ment in this case.
“There has been so much lying ana
rascality as I will show you that I
/won’t add to it. That fellow Kenley
is a fair example. He is a man that
any h*>nc3t mar ought to be ashamed
to say ne knows. His mouth is set
like a catfish. He is the type of lying
blowhards that constitutes the so-
called public sentiment. He is the
man who said they hanged two ne
groes at Decatur because they had to
have somebody', and he is the man
who said, ‘Hang this Jew for the
murder of that poor little girl whether
he is innocent or guilty.’
“I had rather be in Deo Frank's
shoes to-day than Kenley’s.
“Gentlemen of the jury, there are
people* who say that Frank is a re
markable man; that he is a man of
Wonderful courage; that he has gone
through this trial in a manner most
remarkable for a man of his physical
build and temperament.
“Gentlemen, he has inherited it
through 2,000 years of persecution.
Behind him there is a long line of an
cestors who for centuries have been
abused, and 1 hope the day will come
when a man will get justice, will be
accorded fair treatment, be he Jew
i'.r Gentile, or white or black.
“He has endured persecution, and
his tamily has endured it. The Jews
have been thrifty, and envy has been
the result. If Leo M. Frank had not
been a Jew there would not have been
any prosecution of him on this despic
able charge. The miserable, lying ne
gro, Jim Conley r , was brought in to
tell his miserable, lying story, to re
cite, parrot-like, the story in which'
he had been so well drilled.
“I am asking my own people and
my own kind of people to do Frank
justice, l am not a Jew, but I would
rather my throat would be cut than
do one an injustice of this sort.
“They have got their miserable per
jurer, Conley, to come up here and
swear Frank’s life away. They have
.had him swear against a man who
never had a word said against him
before.
“Of course, after a crime, you al
ways find persons who say that they
knew the defendant’s character was
bad. But you don’t make a murderer
in a single day.
“1 am going to compare the wit
nesses that were u*ed by the defense
with those that were used by the pros
ecution. They brought up the dregs
of humanity to testify against this
man. They brought* up jailbirds and
convicts to hang this man. They
spouted hot and cold. They hurried
the schedule of a street car. They
slowed down the time clock at the
factory. They got the detectives to
say that Frank was nervous. They
got his mother-in-law to say that he
was so soulless he didn’t open his
mouth.
"Built Up Case,
Then Tore It Down.”
“They got little George Epps to tes
tify that Mary Phagan got into town
at 12:07. Then they began to tear
their own testimony down. 1 am go
ing to strip the case of some of the
falsities and the warpings of the evi
dence. if God Almighty gives me
strength. I don’t know that He will,
for I am nearly worn out.
There have been a great many
things brought into this case which
should not have been brought in. The
defendant must be proved guilty of
the murder of Mary Phagan. Every
other reasonable hypothesis must be
eliminated.
“You must liberate Frank, other
wise. The law says you must. If you
think that it is as reasonable to be
lieve that Jim Conley committed the
crime, then you must turn Frank
' loose.
% “Our friends, the detectives and po
lice. were hard put to find somebody
on whom to place the crime. They
thought at first it was this man
Gantt. Sentell and others said they
saw Mary Phagan on the street at
midnight. Of course, they did not.
But it will illustrate the uncertainty
with which this crime has been
hatched.
“Then they were almost certain that
Newt Lee was the man. They found
the notes by the girl’s body, and New;
Lee said in reference to ‘night-witch.’
a phrase occurring in one of the notes,
that ‘night-witch means me. Boss.’
"I do not think that Newt Lee com
mitted the murder, or had anything
to do with the killing of the girl, but
I never will get it out of my mind that
Newt Lee knew something about tne
writing of thoue notes.
“Man Who Wrote Note
Killed Mary Phagan.”
“This is one of the profoundest
mysteries that ever confronted a com
munity. It has baffled investigation
at every turn. But one thing has
stood out like a mountain on a plain,
since the very beginning of this case.
The man who wrote those notes killed
Mary Phagan.
“Oh, you remember how they
searched for him. The notes were
found bes’de the dead body. It wa.-i
right hard to recite what was in the
obscure mind that wrote those notes
It looked like one negro trying to ac
cuse another, but the one question
stood out. Who wrote the notes? Wh-i
wrote the notes?
“Things developed. Newt Lee was
put through the third degree and the
fourth degree. Just the day or the
day before the Court of Appeals hand
ed down a decision which is especially
applicable to this* case. It denounce.-
such methods. How it does hit Jim
Conley and the authorities that made
him swear. How it does hit Minol i
McKnight!”
He read a newspaper clipping of the
decision.
“Our friend Hooper said there was
nothing to hold Jim Coniey in that
chair but the truth. My God! He hat.
his life at stake! Before you get
through with this case you will see
that they have got to depend on Jin
Conley. If they can not hobble on
those too rotten crutches they can’t
hobble at all. Before 1 get through
with it I am going to snow there nevti
was such a frameup since the world
began.”
Court adjourned at this time.
Rficalls Fairous
Durant Cage.
When court convened for the aft
ernoon session, Arnold resumed his
argument.
'“Gentlemen of the jury," he said,
"my friend Hooper made some re
marks about circumstantial evidence
and how powerful it was. He forgot
to mention the fact that the circum
stances had to be substantiated by
reputable witnesses and eliminate
evefy other reasonable doubt.
“I rerfd a book once that dealt 11it
circumstantial evidence and it was
positively sickening the number )f
mistakes that have been made. The
famous Durant case that has com-
w'ithin our memory is a striking illus
tration. Two girls were found mur
dered in the tow-er of a church. Du
rant was the last man seen with
them. The public said. You arc
guilty.' One man swore he saw him
wearing a girl's ling. Another may
swore he had found Durant nervous
and perspiring as though he had come
from recent great exercise. The
women egged him on his way to
court. The jury found him builty and
a weak judge the first I have ever
heard of. sentenced him to hang m
three days. They appealed the case,
hut lost'out, and they hanged him.
There was not a cemetery in Frisco
that would bury that man. They took
him out to a little country church
yard and buried him. Time went on
and people forgot about it. The
preacher in that little church con
tinued to address his congregation.
After a number of years the preacher ,
was confined to his death bed. He j
called a number of his friends around
him and confessed to the murder of
those two girls, and explained the cir
cumstances in suc’.i a way that it left
no room for doubt that he was telling
the truth.
Cites Infamous
Dreyfus Case.
“I remember another ease—-the
Hampton case in England. It is a
historic case. A country gentleman
bv the name of Hampton disappeared.
He had lived with an old woman and
her two sons. Tt was supposed tha*
he had been killed. One son made
incriminating admissions. They trie !
the old lady and-her two sons and
hanged them all. In a year Hampton
appeared in life.
“I recall another case, the most
dreadful of all—the Dreyfus case. He
was a lieutenant in the French army.
Someone had been telling the plans of
the French fortifications. Dreyfus
was suspected. They got evidence
against him; he was court-martialed
and sent to Devils Island. The men
who sent him away thought they were
safe, but the people became calmer
and began reconsidering their action
In time a most infamous conspiracy
was revealed. One man confessed and
before the end practically every man
In the prosecution committed sui
cide. Dreyfus was a Jew. He was
friendless. He was an easy mark
and they got him.
“I have never seen so much venom
as there is in this trial. The murder
ous bestiality that robbed little
Mary Phagan of her life Is scarcely
worse than the spirit that would de
prive this man of justice No wolf
in the forest, no beast in his cage is
so savage as these people who would
hang this man on the flimsiest sort
of evidence.
Arnold Grows Facetious
At Expense of Hooper.
“One thing in my friend Hooper’s
speech I want you to consider. YVhat
he didn’t know about this case would
fill many volumes. He has got just a
little feeble smattering of an idea. He
doesn’t know what the witnesses said.
He doesn’t know anything about the
factory. He got mixed in Conley’s
evidence. Part of the time he was
quoting from statements of Conley
made before the trial.
“But I can’t blame him much. Con
ley’s evidence Is so crooked he
couldn’t follow it. It reminds me of
the story of the farmer who tried to
teach his boy to plow a straight row.
He said: ‘Son, you see that bull across
yonder? Follow straight to him and
your row will be straight.’ He came
back later and found the boy plow
ing in semi-circles. ‘What are you
doing?’ asked the farmer. -I am fol
lowing the bull,’ replied the boy.”
Arnold illustrated his point by
walking around in circles before the
jury, holding his walking stick as
though it were a plowstock.
Sheriff Mangum had to rap to keep
down the laughter.
“I have never yet seen an effort to
get a jury to believe a witness in the
attitude of Jim Conley.” Arnold con
tinued. “There are vfle different edi
tions of his- statement. If he made
one to-morrow, there would be a
sixth. He has got the strongest mo
tive In the world to lie—to save his
own neck.
Premeditated Killing.
Scouts Theory Frank
“Take my friend Hooper’s theory
that Frank knew it if Conley killed
the girl. That is about as weak as
the rest of his argument. If Conley
had killed her on the second floor, he-
never would have taken her down
until Frank and Mrs. White left.
“Frank left about one. It is absurd
to assume that it was impossible for
him not to have seen Conley. But we
don’t believe she was killed on the
second floor. And 1 am going to show
lhat there is no evidence that she
was killed there, except what Christo
pher Columbus Barrett found.
“Hooper smelled the plot. He says
this man had had his eye on this dear
little girl for some time. That he had
been thinking of how he could get her.
That he had plotted to make an at
tack on her. I join with everyone in
saying that who killed Mary Phagan
was a foul beast, a fiend, a savage.
It was not the act of a civilized man.
“But Hooper was hard pressed.
They had to fall on something. They
had to fall back on the evidence of
this miserable negro, Jim Conley.
And look at his evidence. A mass of
lies. He lied in the first affidavit; in
the second; in the third; in the
fourth. He lied the fifth time, and I
daresay that if he was placed on the
stand he would lie the sixth time.
“Now look at what they got. They
<ay that on Friday Frank knew he
was going to make an attack on little
Mary Phagan. And, gentlemen, tak
ing in the evidence and everything
else, this is the wildest conception I
ev°r heard of.
“Conley Was Made to
Tell Suitable Tale.”
"The utmost they can get is by
this poor miserable little fellow, Tur
ner. brought in here at the eleventh
hour and who savs he worked at the
nencil factory for ten days. And all
he said was that Frank had put his
hand on her shoulder and called her
Mary.
“When asked if he could describe
her, Turner said that lie could not.
He did nto know anyone else In the
factory. He could not describe any
one. And what did he say that Frank
•aid to her? All in the world that
he said was that: ‘I am superintend
ent of this factory.’
“And mind you, gentlemen of the
jury, this was in broad open daylight.
They brought in other women here
to testify as to his conduct with
Mary Phagan. And all that they
could say was that they had heard
him call her Mary.
“To get back to Jim Conley; he is
at the beginning of the plot. From
all the evidence, they just took him
and led him around and made him
fit a theory. I will prove by Harry
Scott’s evidence that whenever Con
ley said anything that didn't exactly
fit, they said: ‘Here Jim, that won’t
do. That doesn’t fit Bill Jones’ testi
mony and Conley immediately switch
ed it around so that it would fit.
“By Conley’s evidence that on 3
o’clock Friday afternoon, Frank came
to him on the third and fourth floors,
they expected to show that Frank at
3 o’clock Friday afternoon knew Mao*
Phagan was not coming for her pay.
“Now they didn’t begin the payroll
until 5 o’clock Friday afternoon Who
on earth but God himself would know
that little girl was not coming for
her pay?
Sees Conspiracy in
State Evidence Chain.
“How unreasonable must it be for
intelligent human beings to believe
any story so utterly unreasonable.
“There is a little girl named Fergu
son. I notice that Mrs. Coleman never
said a word about the Ferguson girl,
nor did she say a one about the Epps
boy. But the Ferguson girl says: ‘I
asked Mr. Frank for Mary Phagan’s
pay, and he wouldn’t give it to me.’
Frank didn't know' Mary was not
coming for her pay that day? How
did he know she wouldn't come for
her pay that day? Wasn’t it natural
to suppose that if she didn’t come
that day, that she would come on
Monday, the next working day? Do
you think that he knew she was com
ing Saturday morning?
“Gentlemen, it is the wildest theory
on earth. Yet the Ferguson girl said:
’I asked for Mary’s pay and he said
he wouldn't give it to me.’ Frank
never paid off. Schiff always did that.
They had a pay window, and Schiff
sat behind it. I doubt if Frank ever
saw the girls who were paid.
"There is another little girl, Mag
nolia Kennedy. She looks Just as
well as the Ferguson girl. She de
clares she was behind the Ferguson
girl and that the Ferguson girl asked
for the pay of no one but herself. 1
“There is your conspiracy. Before
anything happened you have Conley
laying the foundation. You have
Frank on Friday knowing all these
things and telling Conley to come
back Saturday. You have Frank say
ing :‘l don't think Mary Phagan will
ask for her pay this evening. I don’t
think she will come down and get it
at the usual time. I think she will
come Saturday morning. So I will
have Conley here and he can watch
for me while I assault her.
Accuses the State of
Begging the Question.
“Gentlemen, it is too thin. But my
friend Hooper says that Frank fired
Gantt fior a one-dollar debt. Gantt
don't come into this case in a very-
good light. He admitted the om
shortage for which he was discharg
ed There was no doubt that the
man who made the complaint knew
of the missing one dollar. You don't
know how much more there was. You
don’t know what Gantt did during
the time he was working there. Wt
didn’t go into that. We don’t want
to sling any mud on to anyone at all.
Yet they are bringing in the dis
charge of Gantt as having a bearing
on tills case.
“They' claim Gantt was discharged
because he had said he knew Mary
Phagan. There is no proof that
Gantt knew her. They were born in
the same county, but there are 30,000
people in Cobb County. He was not
her guardian She was not dependent
upon him
“LittU Grace Hlx said that Frank
didn’t know Mary. Magnolia Ken
nedy said that Frank was not ac
quainted with the Phagan girl.
"My friend Hoope r said some |
mighty bad things about what hap- j
pened at the factory. He has pictur
ed the conditions at the factory as
being grossly Immoral.
"G ; ntlem«-n,( that is begging the
question. I venture the assertion |
as they might be. There is always
the evil mixed with the good.
“Discharged Employees
Testified in Revenge,”
“We are not trying this case on
whether you or Dorsey or me or Mr.
Starnes or Frank have always be .mi
perfect. I say to my friends, let him
without sin cast the first stone. There
was a little Immorality here as In
other factories. My friends Dors -y
and Hooper have put the microscone
on everything. They have dug up
everything that ever happened at thi t
factory. They have "-one back five
years in their efforts to create trou
ble. They went fishing for witnesses
and I don’t wonder that they could
find a dozen or so who were willing
Miss Jackson admited that girls had
been flirting from the windows of
that dressing rom. She said they
were all afraid of Frank and went
to work when he appeared. The only
reason that Frank loked Into that
dressing room, was to see that his
orders prohibiting flirting had been
obeyed.
“Do you think he could run a fac
tory like that and flirted and had
been familiar with the help? Don’t
you know that if he had done that,
all organization would have been
swept away and w-ork would have
been practically at a standstill? Do
you think Montag would have kept

prosecution said he did? Do you think
thev would have trusted their bus-

to swear that Frank’s character was j lnegs wlth . a man llke that7

your opinion depends on the leng'.h 1 —

"The prosecution has put up eleven I ss
girls. Most of them worked there 1 ZjjjZ
years ago and for only a few' weeks ——
at a time. They have gotten all the —
floaters they could And, employees —
who worked at one place for a short

they were able to And many w ho were , —>
willing to swear that Frank’s char- • —
acter was bad. From the way they '
have been giving evidence, I am in
clined to believe it.
“Now, of all the Incidents men
tioned by our friend Mr. Hooper, the
dressing room incident is about the
worst. There is the room, gentle
men that has absolutely no conven
iences—no wash room, no lavatory.
“Now' Miss Javckson said that the
girls went to work at 7 o’clock and
that Frank loked in at 7:10 or 7:15.
you can go out to Piedmont Park any
day and see 500 women with almost
nothing on.
“You can go to shows and see
them with practically nothing on.
And I don’t mean we are getting
worse, either. eYV are getting broad
er. This prudish attitude of holding
up your hands In horror of a man’s
putting a hand on a woman’s should
er makes me sick. I wouldn’t trust
that sort of a man behind a door.
Killing Was Crime
Of Savage Negro.
“We are living in a broad age. We
are getting more sense about these
matters. Sometimes I think it is a
little too broad for me. But Frank’s
acts that were testified about were
made in the broad open day, and no
complaints were made about them at
the time.
“I was talking about Hooper’s
theory. He is the sort of man w-ho
sees a bear behind every bush. He
quoted Conley’s • statement about
Frank telling him to come back and
watch. Don’t that fit beautifully?
Mary Phagan had not been there It
isn’t so, of course. Frank couldn’t
have had any engagement with that
little girl. That crime couldn’t have
happened as Conley said it did. It
was the crime of a savage negro,
whose first attack is violence, because
he can not accomplish his object in
any other way.
“Now we come to this man Barrett.
I don’t know what his name is, but
I call him Christopher Columbus be
cause of his numerous discoveries.
He talked about a reward. Smith
testified he saw him counting his
imaginary money. Frank, Chief
Beavers and Detective Starnes made
a searching investigation of that fac
tory Sunday. They didn't find any
blood spots. But Christopher Colum
bus embarked on a voyage the next
day and discovered wonders.
