Washington Manager Writes That
Youngster Needs Bit More
Seasoning.
Harry Holland, former Tech star,
is going to return to the Crackers in
a few days. It may be that he is on
his way back here now, and will ar
rive in time to play in to-morrow's
game against the slugging Cleveland
team at Poncy Park.
Manager Billy Smith received a
letter to-day from Clark Griffith,
manager of the Washington team, in
which the leader of the Senators
saye:
“Am returning Holland to you.
This youngster looks awfully good to
me, but 1 believe that he needs an
other year of seasoning in the South
ern League., 1 shall expect to get
him back in the fall.
“I have been playing Holland al
shcrt and he did remarkably well un
der the circumstances that surround
ed him, I believe that you will find
himm a better shortstop than third
baseman.”
This letter —ame from Charlottes
ville, Va., where the Senators are
training. Holland was bought by
Washington last fall. He joined the
Crackers in mid-season and did ex
cellent work despite the fact that he
was fresh out of college ball ranks.
Manager Smith announced this af
ternoon that he would probably give
Holland a tryout at short instead of
at third,

Officers Say Regiment Is Likely
to Return to Envied Post Here.
Small Guard Left.
Amid the tears of sweethearts, the
cheers of civilians and the inspiring
music of the regimental band, the
gallant Seventeenth left for the Mex
fcan border Thursday.
The Second Battalion, composed of
275 soldiers and fifteen officers, un
der Major B. F. Hardaway, bade fare
well to Fort McPherson, and left at
11 o'clock on a special train for Ea
gle Pass, Texas.
The second-train left at noon, bear
ing the Third Battalion, under Major
Robert Alexander. Fifteen prison
ers, serving terms for desertion and
fraudulent enlistment, under the
guard of seven men, in charge of Cor
poral Hall, of Company A, left short
ly after noon for Fort Jay, on Gov
enors Island, N. Y.
Go Different Routes,
The iast train, with the First Bat
talion, under Major G. W. Martin
and with Colonel T. W. Griffiths and
the regimental staff, left at 2 g'clock.
The first train will go by New Or
leans, while the others will go by
Memphis.
Just before the departure of each
train there were many affecting
scenes as the soldlers told their
friends and relatives good-bye.
The general opinion among the pri
vates as they departed was that they
would see actual service in Mexico.
The First Battalion saw patrol serv
fce in Texas when President Taft
mobilized the troops on the border in
1911. The soldiers were on the border
from March 10, 1911, unti] October 8,
1911,
In 1907 the First and Second Bat
talions were ordered to Cuba, s‘ay
ing there two years and two months
before returning to Fort McPherson.
The regimental equipment, includ
ing the hospital supplies, the wagons,
stock, camping equipment and com
missary and quartermaster’'s supplies,
was sent ahead of the regiment in a
special train that left Atlanta on the
Southern Wednesday afterncon at §
o'clock.
The equipment train carried 81 en
listed men and three officers, and was
under the command of Captain C. B,
Stone, Jr. These soldiers comprised
the machine gun platoon, the regi
mental detachment, teamsters and
stable men, and the quartermaster’'s
detachment of 23 mern.
Railroads Caused Delay.
The first and second trains will be
routed over the Southern for New
Orleans, via Birmingham, and from
New Orleans will be sent over the
Southern Pacific to Eagle Pass. The
third train will go through Montgom
ery to New Orleans and thence over
the same route as the two preced-
ing fit.
Fort McPherson has been alive with
(the hustle and bustle of preparation
since the oMclal marching orders were
received a week ago to-day. For two
or three days, however, the regiment
has had its equipment in such shape
that it could have left at a moment's
notice, and most of the delay has
been on account of the Inability of the
railroads to have the necessary trains
ready.
The “town” of Fort McPherson
turned out en masse to see the sol
diers leave Thursday, and several
hundred people went out from Atlan
ta for a last look at the men who have

less note knowing it to be a forgery,

FINALY
VOW THAT
HELLTALK
[DJIM
CONLEY
William J. Burns Thursday scoffed
at the idea that Jim Conley’'s lawyer
or anyone else could prevent him
from seeing the negro when he des
cides the time has come to interview
tha self-confessed accessory of Leo
M. Frank in the slaying of Mary
Phagan,
“Conley has been tried, convicted
and sentenced,” said Burns. “The
idea that anyone can keep me from
seeing him is absurd. I am going to
see Conley. The time has not ar+
rived yet when the best results would
be obtained in any talk with him,
but when it does peither Mr. Smith
nor anyone else will stop me. All
this talk is mere foolishness.”
The famouys detective said he ine
tended to spend most of Thuarsday
quizzing Frank in his cell in the
Tower and. going. carefully over the
convicted man’s story of h's moye
ments on April 26, 1913, and his ver=
slon of subsequent events.
Calls Case Easy.
“This case,” said Burns, “is easier
than 1 expected. There is certainly
no mystery that can not be cleared
up, and the facts will speak for them
se!ves when made public, I am con
fident that Mr, Dorsgey js ppen to con
viction if it should develop that a
grievous mistake has been made.
“l have never expressed any con
viction as to the innocence or guilt
of Frank, and d? not intend tp do so
until the investigation is completed.
Of course, I hope that our findings
will prove the man innocent, but I am
working with . arn. ahsolutely open
mind. The trail certainly looks clear
enough to me, and I believe Atlanta
and the country at large will be sat
isfled that the truth has béen found
when the final report is made.”
Burns said he had wired for Dan
Lehon, head of his New Orleans of
fice, to come to Atlanta to work with
him on the case.
Written Demand on Sheriff.
This effort ‘to block Burns seeing
Conley was in the form of a
ritten demand by William M. Smi‘n,
' _aley's lawyer, to the Sheriff, that
all visiters be kept away from his
client's cell.
This is the second order of its kind,
the first having been issued by Judge
Roan at the close of the Frank trial
last summer, when the c. .rt ordered
