HANDCUFFED INNOCENT
YOUNG GIRL FOR HOURS
Cordela, Gk.—Bring handcuffed for
aeveral holirn whs not any more pleas
ant to Mlhh Willie Miller than It would
havo been for any other refined and
modest young lady, which she certainly
Is. And the worat part of I* Is that
she had done nothing for which to he
handcuffed, for If she ever violated a
law she does not know It.
It waa through the Joke of a young
gentleman friend, who borrowed the
handcuffs from a county halllff when
It* young Indy wa» present, thnt the
Mtoel "bracelets” nm« to be placed
about her wrists and loeMd. But the
Joke turned to a serious reality when,
In the attempt to unlock the handcuffs,
the young man broke off the key In
the lock. It was several houra later
when the handcuffs were filed from
her wrlsls and freedom given her. and
this at the cost of the handcuffs to
the gallant young Joker.

Leather Merchant Convicted
of Wife Murder, Sentenced to
15 Years. Motion For New
Trial.
Chicago.—William Cheney Kills, Cin
cinnati leather merchant, convicted
yexterday and sentenced to 16 years’
Imprisonment for the murder of hi*
w ife In u Chi, ago hotel last October,
today waa In the county Jail awaiting
action on a motion for a new trial.
Hhould n new trial be denied coun*
m I for Kills said he probably would
be taken to the penitentiary wlthoul
appealing to a higher court.
Both Kills and bis attorney seemed
to be satisfied with the verdict.
Thr*s and a Half Hours.
Chicago.—William Cheney Kills last
night uus found guilty of murdering
his wife, Mrs. Kh-anor llosea Kills.
The Jury reached a decision after
deliberating three and one-half hours.
Kills’ defense of psychic epilepsy or
transitory Insanity apparently was
disregarded by the Juror*. Kills claim
ed bo hud been drtren to manta by
knowledge that his wife had given her
love to Fred G. Cauldwell of Brant
ford, Ont., a young dry goods mer
chant.
Bills killed his wife In their hotel
room here, October 16th. 1918. He is
47 years old and has been a dealer In
leather goods In Cincinnati, Ohio. H<*
followed his wife here several days
after she came to Chicago on a visit
to relatives. They celebrated their
ninth wedding anniversary with a din
ner and theatre party the night of
tho murder.
When found with the corpse, Kliis
appeared dazed. He had slightly slash
ed his own wrists and throat and at
first declared the tragedy was the re
sult of a suicide agreement because of
his business troubles. Before the cor
oner’s Jury he changed his explanation
and testified that he alone was re
sponsible for the killing, but that he
bad meant that both should die. 1-ater
the defense of temporary mania was
proposed and the burden of its cause
laid on an alleged infatuation of Mrs.
Kills for Cauldwell.
Cauldwell declined to come to Chi
cago to testify, but from his home In
Canada sent dispatches denying the
accusations of Kills.
At the time of the murder it w:«s
testified Kills was broken In health,
his business had dwindled and he had
been the victim for a long period of
spells of brooding, depression an.l
nervousnes.
NEW SUPPORT
FOII LEO FRANK
Two Affidavits State Convict
ed Man Was on Street at
Time Phagan Girl’s Body was
Taken to Cellar.
Atlanta, Ga.—A twilling Jim Conley's
story with the sworn statement that
l,eo Frank was seen at Whitehall and
Alabama streets at nn hour on the day
of tile murder at which the negro tes
tified he and Frank were disposing of
Mary J’hagan's body, Mr*. Ethel Har
ris Miller and Maler Lefkoff have put
into hands of the defense affidavits
that support the testimony of Minnie
Kern.
The Kern girl's story was considered
to he undoubtedly the strongest link
in the famous alibi presented by the
convicted man's defense. She stated
site saw Frank at Whitehall and Ala
bama street- at the southwest corner
—at 1:10 o'clock on the afternoon of
the murder, at which time Jim Conley
declared he and Frank were carrying
the murdered girl's body into the base
ment.
Swear They Saw Frank.
Mr*. Miller states that *he saw
Frank at approximately the same time
he was seen by Miss Kern. It was
also at precisely the same spot at
which he passed the Kern girl. Mrs.
Miller was walking down the street
with her sister, Mrs. Max Meyer, and
with Mr. Lefkoff. Mr*. Meyer was
then unmarried, having wedded Mr.
Meyer during the later fall.
Attorney 1-eonaril Haas, associated
with Reuben Arnold and Luther Z.
Rosser in Frank’s defense, told a. re
porter Thursday afternoon he consid
ered these latter affidavits to lie. per
haps, the strongest connecting links to
tie submitted to Judge Ren Hill in the
prospective application for a new tilaU
Beyond Doubt.
"It establishes nn alibi beyond
doubt," he stated. "It suports Miss
Kearn's testimony, which was a con
necting link In the alibi chain, and
which was one of the most decisive
points in the time element. The state
ments of Mrs. Miller and Mr. Isd'koff
prove conclusively that Frank was not
at the factory at the time the Conley
negro state* positively they were dis
posing of the body."
The two new affidavit* were mado
