TTTE ATIANTA GEORGIAN A ND NEWS. FUK, IN CELL, PREPUCES STATEMENT ATTACKING Continued from Page 1. as the first business for its disposal. The maximum sentence for this of fense is three years, but it is thought that Conley, as a self-confessed ac cessory and a State’s witness, will get off more lightly than the maxi mum. Frank told friends Wednesday that he was planning to have a large part in the conduct of the fight to obtain a reversal of the verdict of last Mon day afternoon. Frank rendered his attorneys assistance during the prep aration of his case for presentation at the trial which has just ended, but all of the decisions of any conse quence were left to them. The convicted man followed every move of Rosser and Arnold, as well as of Solicitor Dorsey, with an un ceasing vigilance and w-ith a thor ough comprehension of the purpose involved. Friends say he feels that he is competent to have a part in the mapping out of the future cam paign for his life and liberty, and ex pects to have a considerable voice in every plan that is proposed. It is his life that is at stake, and he is convinced that he has obtained a sufficient knowledge of legal pro cedure at least to advise and sug gest and, at times, direct as to what shall be done. Rosser Lays Battle Plan. Rosser Wednesday began active preparation for the appeal for a new- trial for Frank. In summing up the evidence for the argument of the case before Judge Roan on October 4. Solicitor Dorsey will work in con junction with Mr. Rosser. Mr. Rosser emphasized the coloa- sal task before him as he sat in his office in the Grant Building by point ing to the mass of evidence taken by the court stenographer. It embraces 4,500 typew-ritten pages, far and away the record for criminal cases in Geor gia. This must be condensed to a workable basis—some 200 pages—ac cording to Mr. Rosser. It is supposed to be just enough to make the points clear on w-hich the arguments for a new trial will be based. But attor neys representing both sides must agree on the evidence submitted. And therefore to save time Solicitor Dor sey will collaborate w-ith Mr. Ros ser. If Judge Roan refuses a new trial, Attorney Rosser declared the case im mediately would be taken to the Su preme Court. v Thus the sentence of Frank to be hanged betw-een 10 and 2 o’clock on October 10 will be stayed. It prob ably will be after the first of the new year before the Supreme Court w-lll be able to take up the case, anu Frank automatically will get a respite. Mr. Rosser’s statements and acts refuted the reports that he had suf fered greatly from the long strain of the trial. Away from the color and excite ment of the courtroom scenes he is proceeding on his work with the me thodical energy he w-ould proceed on a civil case Referring to Mr. Arnold’s trip to Bedford Springs, Pa., and the report that he himself had suffered a loss of 25 pounds in weight. Mr. Ross°r said: “I don’t need a vacation, so I have gone back to work. I weigh exactly the same as I did the day I w-ent In to the case. I haven't got time ti worry about my physical well-being, “I would greatly enjoy a good rest. But Mr. Arnold or myself has got to prepare this case for a new trial. He is gone and I've got to do it. So you see I am at it.” Mr. Arnold will return in good time to take part in the appeal for a ne.v trial. October 10 Jewish Sacred Day. That he is not without tactical abil ity in a law court was demonstrated by his statement to the jury. An impressive coincidence in the sentencing of Leo Frank to hang or. October 10 is that this is the most deeply sacred day of al of Frank’s religion—the Day of Atonement. It is the day for confession of sins. It probably is as universally observed by members of this faith as Good Friday, for example, is observed by the Roman Catholics. The setting of this date, however, may be regarded as little more than a formality, as it is certain that Frank will not go-to his death on that day. The arguments for a new- trial will be heard on October 4, and if the motior is denied an immediate appeal will be made to the Supreme Court, and this will necessitate a postponement in the date set for the execution while j the matter is being thrashed out in j the higher courts. While the beginning of the real | battle w-ill not take place until Octo- | ber 4, Frank’s law-yers entered at once | into a new- plan of campaign for his freedom. Reuben Arnold is taking a few- days;’ vacation, but will return to 1 the city shortly to resume his w-ork j on the case. In the meanw-hile w-it- i nesses are being examined and data obtained in reference to several of ! the points on which a new- trial win be asked of Judge Roan. Conley Says He Told Truth. Frank arose at 7 o’clock Wednes- J day morning and w-alked about his I limited quarters for half an hour, j and then sat down to read the pa- i pers. He was reading when his fa ther-in-law, Emil Selig, and Sig Mon- : tag came with his breakfast. He ; was reported to be as cheerful as at j any time during the months he w r as | aw-aiting for his trial. Jim Conley had for his breakfast the usual jail fare. “I told the truth, boss,” he remarked to J. L. Poindex ter, one of the deputies. “A lie w-ill wash away, and you can’t keep it, but the truth, it will stay by you,” w-as his sage observation as he continued to comment on his case. Rudolph M.

(Adv.) convicted man, was told Tuesday at his home in Brooklyn of the verdict that had been returned against his son. An elderly man and an invalid much of the time. Dr. Frank was prostrated by the news. "I know Leo is innocent. He never would be capable of committing a terrible deed of that sort,” the old man told Harry Lewis, the family lawyer, who spoke to the reporters. Lewis was one of the character witnesses who came to Atlanta to testify at the trial. In making their motion for a new- trial Tuesday, Frank’s lawyers set forth statutory grounds, and lateV will file an amended motion. The first motion represents that the verdict of guilty was contrary to the evidence, contrary to law and contrary to the weight of the law, and that the court, after overruling a motion of the de fense, allowed certain testimony which w-as relative to other crimes than the one specified in the bill of indict ment. T his last reference is in regard to Jim Conley’s testimony, in which the negro told of the alleged conduct of Frank w-ith women in his office. Frank’s Fight Likely To Extend Over Months. That the Leo Frank case can n^t reach the State Supreme Court, where it seems destined to go, before the third Monday in December, was the opinion expressed Wednesday morn ing by a court official w-ho has figured out all the “possibilities.” Should the famous case reach the Supreme Court even at this earlv date it probably would be several weeks before a decision could be ren dered, as a mass of testimony would have to be considered by the court. According to this official, should Frank’s attorneys be overruled by Judge Roan on October 4 in their re quest for a new trial, they may then file a bill of exceptions any time with in the following tweyy days. At the time of the filing of the bill of ex ceptions, which in this case probably will be immediately after the decision of Judge Roan and before October 10. the date of the hanging, the ju^g? “shall,” according to the law, orde T a supersedeas, which stays the exe cution. After the bill of exceptions has been filed and the supersedeas ordered, the attornevs for the defense will have ten days :d which to present the mat ter to the attorneys for the Stats. Following the notification to the State the defense then has fifteen days to file it with the Clerk of the Superior Court, who then has ten days to for- w-ard tile record to the Clerk of tht Supreme Court. Should the defense take full advan tage of the time granted in each case there is a possibility that the case w-ill not reach the Supreme Court until January, or perhaps Feb ruary.

Women Join in Demonstration and Fugitive Bows His Apprecia tion for Their Sympathy, SHERBROOKE, QUE., Aug. 27.— The habeas corpus proceedings in the Thaw case were abruptly stopped after they began before Judge Globen- sky in the Superior Court at 10 o’clock, and adjournment w-as taken until 3 p. m. The judge said he w-anted more time to consult the authorities on Thaw’s move to withdraw- his appli cation far a habeas corpus writ. There was a tremendous demon stration in the courtroom in Thaw’s favor when Counsellor Samuel Jacobs, on behalf of the Canadian Govern ment and the State of New York, be gan his opening arguments opposing the withdrawal of Thaw’s petition. “Let Him Go," Cry Spectators. “Let him go,” cried the spectators. “Give him justice,” screamed others. The like demonstration had been made earlier w-hile Thaw was being take/i from the jail to the courthouse. Men and women followed the auto mobile and blocked the streets which it traveled. “They can’t get you, Har ry,” cried some. Women joined en thusiastically in the demonstration. Thaw was delighted beyond measure. The court attaches had difficulty in keeping order. Thaw- sat at the law yers’ table while his attorneys, in re ply to Jacobs, pleaded that under the civil code of the Dominion they had a perfect right to withdraw- their ap plication for a habeas corpus w-rlt. Women in Demonstration. Judge Globensky finally halted the proceedings, announcing he would take the case under advisement until 3 o’clock in order to consult the au thorities. When this announcement was made one spectator cried out: “Good, good. Let us have fair play, and three cheers for Harry Thaw.”. There w-ere about 200 women pres ent, and all joined in the demonstra tion. With his face beaming, Thaw arose, placed his hand over his heart and bowed. Dr. Raymond F. C. Kieb, superin tendent of the Matteawan, N. Y., asy lum for the criminal insane, from which Thaw escaped, has Joined the forces which are fighting to get the fugitive back into that institution. Thaw’s counsel is confronted by a formidable array. Mr. Jerome, Deputy Attorney Gen eral Franklin Kennedy, of New- York State; Samuel Jacobs, of Montreal, representing New York State; Dis trict Attorney E. A. Conger, of Dutch ess County, New York (in which Mat teawan is situated), and others are co-operating with the Canadian legal representatives. Park Manager’s Power To Be Cut Another* step in the differences be tween the Pork Commission and Gen eral Manager Dan Carey will be taken at the next meeting of the commis sion when a new set of by-laws*ma terially curbing the authority of the general manager will be adopted. The new- rules practically put the entire operation of the department under the direct control of the commission. The proposed adoption of the rules is regarded as another step in the ef fort of members of the board to force the resignation of Carey, but this he states he will not do. “It is nothing more nor less than an effort to make me resign, but even the adoption of the new rules and making my position practically noth ing but a little clerkship, will not have the effect of making me resign,” said Carey. “Briefly, the new- rules place the operation of the department back un der the same method prevailing until three years ago, when the presen* rules w-e*e adopted. A touch of the pathetic is included in one rule which would prevent anyone connected with the park department from drinking even .small glass of beer at a barbe cue or anywhere else, this rule say ing that an employee or officer shall not drink anything calculated to pro duce Intoxication. “I suppose the commission meant to hit at drunkenness In this rule, which has always been enforced by me, but If It is rigidly enforced under this interpretation it would result in the lo^s of a few good men. For instance, we have a splendid florist who hap pens to be a german and who is quite fond of his beer, but who never gets drunk. He probably would quit his Job before he w-ould his beer.” Cummins Predicts Free List Change WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.—Progres sive Republican Senators to-day fore cast the acceptance by the majority of the Senate Finance Committee of a modified form of the Kenyon amendment to the tariff bill providing for the free listing of trust-made goods.

S. Immediately. VERA CRUZ. MEXICO. Aug. 27.— It Is now likely that Special Envoy John Lind will Immediately return to the United States on the battleship Michigan. It was suggested that he await the Morro Castle, w-hich will sail to-morrow, but fears were expressed that developments needing his atten tion might arise during the five days which it takes the Morro Castle to get to New York. Hope that Mr. Lind would reopen negotiations with President Huerta is practically abandoned in all circles. Gamboa Hints at Return. MEXICO CITY, Aug. 27.—Foreign Minister Gamboa intima^d to-day that Special Envoy Lind may return here from Vera Cruz and reopen ne gotiations w-Ith the Mexican Govern ment as a result of the note sent by President Huerta to Lind Mr. Gam boa maintains the optimism w-hich has marked him since the break with the United States.
