FRANKTOFIGHT
ON WEDNESDAY
FOR miM.
, Charges of Bias Against Jurors
Will Play Leading Part
In Arguments.
DEFENSE OPPOSES DELAY
Judge Roan and Solicitor Dorsey
Also Urge Haste—State Has
Big Task.
The way was cleared Saturday for
the actual beginning of the fight over
the motion to give Leo M. Frank, con
victed of the murder of Mary Phagan,
a new trial. The battle will open
before Judge Roan Wednesday with
both sides primed for a vigorous con
test in which charges against jurors
accused of bias will play a large part.
The defense, headed by Luther Z.
Rosser, relies in large part on the evi
dence showing that Juror A. H. Hen
slee expressed violent animus to
Frank before the trial opened, win
ning a new trial for the prisoner.
Scores of affidavits will be Introduced
to uphold the character of the wit
nesses who swear that Henslee said
he was sure Frank was guilty and
would like to see him hanged.
On the other hand, the State will be
prepared to assail a number of these
witnesses, and will try to show
through Henslee himself that the sen
timents against Frank were expressed
after the trial.
Will Exchange All Paper*.
Wednesday, as had been announced
in The Georgian, was formally fixed
for the opening of the arguments by
Judge Roan Saturday. At the same
time the defense and State agreed to
exchange all new papers in the case.
A number of Important documents, it
is said, have not yet been made pub
lic.
In the discussion of the case Mr.
Rosser made the offer to exchange all
new affidavits for the new papers in
possession of the State, and Solicitor
Dorsey agreed.
While declaring that delay un-
I doubtedly would benefit their client,
■ Luther Rosser, for tlie defense, urged
that the motion be brought to a
speedy hearing.
He pointed out that he had been
neglecting his civil business for the
Frank case, and said that if the fight
over the new motion were not dis
posed of by Monday a week he would
have to ask that it be put over so
that he could take up some of his
other work.
Judge Roan Urges Haste.
If that was impossible, he wanted
the case to be put over until De
cember.
Judge Roan interrupted with the
remark that he was anxious to pass
on the case as quickly as possible,
and would be against any delay until
December, and the same sentiments
were expressed by Solicitor Dorsey.
The Solicitor pointed out that he
had given every moment of his time
to preparing his answer to the lengthy
plea filed by the defense, and that he
would continue tn do everything to
ward hastening the hearing.
Dorsey and Leonard Haas, of coun
sel for the defense, began Friday a
review of the record of the case to
check up on all the evidence briefed
by Frank’s lawyers. Due to pressure
of other business, Mr. Haas was un
able tn continue the work Saturday,
but arranged to resume the confer
ence Monday morning at 9 o’clock.
Sixty pages of the 400 were gone
over the first afternoon, minor altera
tions and additions being made at the
suggestion of the Solicitor. Practi
cally all of the remaining time be
fore the hearing will be occupied In
this work, and it is problematical if it
will be concluded satisfactorily by
Wednesday.

WHY SUFFRAGETTE
LEADER IS BARRED
NEW YORK, Oct. 18.—The
United States barred Mrs. Pank
hurst on the ground of "moral
turpitude,” which the dictionary
thus defines: "Inherent baseness,
or vileness; shameful wickedness,
depravity.”
Mrs. Pankhurst was convicted
only of conspiracy In connection
with the crusade of women for
the ballot In England.
NEW YORK. Oct. 18. —Mrs. Emme
line Pankhurst, leader of English mil
itant suffragettes, was taken into
custody by immigratlonofficlals when
she arrived here to-day on the liner
La Provence.
She immediately was taken to Ellie
Island, where she was given a hearing
before a special board of inquiry.
The board decided that Mrs. Pank
hurst should be excluded from ths
United States. She announced that
anappeal would be taken from this
decision. Until her case is finally de
cided by Commissioner of Immigra
tion Caminettl at Washington she win
be held at Ellis Island.
Mrs. Pankhurst appeared in person
before the boardand admitted that
she had been sentenced to jail in
England for conspiracy. This crime
Involves "moral turpitude," and be
cause of this fact the special board
decided that she should be barred.
Has Room Castro Had.
During her stay at Ellis Island Mrs.
Pankhurst will occupy the same room
that was assigned to Cipriano Castro,
the "Stormy Petre! of Venezuela,“
when he was detained here.
Mrs. Pankhurst showed no tracea
of the Illness from which she suffered
while in an English prison. Mild
mannered, sweet faced and smiling,
she appeared anything but an "apos
tle of violence” as she chatted witl»
newspaper men.
She wore a lonp sea! coat over a
dark blue suit, a dark blue hat sur
mounted by a black quill and brown
silk gloves.
To the reporters Mrs. Panqhursrt
said:
"I was convicted under a very pe
culiar act of Parliament. It is the
same act under which men were sent
to prison when they were trying to
get the franchise. My act was a po
litical act.
"I am engaged with other women
tn a revolution that is very similar to
your American Revolution. The con
ditions under which we women are
living now is practically taxation
without representation.”
Calls Asquith "King.”
You think, then, that your fight
is against George V Just as the other
fight was against George HIT” was
suggested.
“Not King George V„, declared Mrs,
Pankhurst, militantly. "You mean
King Asquith.”
"You see," she continued, "we havn
a cabinet aristocracy in a somewhat
democratic nation. One obstinate old
gentleman keep* locked the doors to
reform."
In explanation of the statement
that she had run away from the othe*
side, Mrs. Pankhurst declared that
she had left her country after the
greatest deliberation.
"No one arrested me,” she said. "Nd
one even intimated that I would be
placed under arrest. I took the Con
tinental train on my way to France,
The newspapers never mentioned the
matter, although the newsfxjier meq
