DEVELOPMENTS
IN FRANK CASE
Gome With a Rush After Re
sentencing to Death. Prison
er Answers Questions.
Atlanta, Ga. —Developments came
thick and faxt In Ihi* Frank case Sat
urday afternoon und niKht.
First wan the disclosure of two af
fidavits put In the hand* of Solicitor
Hugh Dorsey by George Kppx, father
of the ex-newsboy witness for the
proascutlon, and by the boy's uncle. W.
H. Epps, of Eatonton, who swear that
the youth confesses to having been
trapped into making the sensatioiw.l
affidavit in which he recently re
nounced his testimony.
Next was the release of newly dis
covered evidence by the defense to
show that the murder notes found be
side Mary I'hagan's body were writ
ten In the basement of the pencil fac
tory. and not on the second floor, as
contended by the prosecution.
New Phase.
This new phase of evidence was de
veloped from a casual examination of
a photograph of the murder missives
by l.emmle Quinn, a foreman in the
pencil plant and witness for the de
fense, who claims to have discovered
a heretofore unrevealed clew to the
source of the famous notes, which
form the most myterlous link to the
entire tragedy.
Not Dismayed by Death Shadow.
Then, too, comes a statement writ
ten by the man in the Tower, In which
Frank dramatically sets his case be
fore the people of Georgia In a lengthy
document, and In which he declares
the shadow of death does not dismay
It inn in the least. In the sight of God,
he states, his innocence shall he pro
claimed to the universe
The new murder note evidence has
instilled great cheer Into the prison
er's heart. The defense contends that
they will show by the notes them
selves that the copy paper on which
they were written was obtained by
the writer of the notes from the base
ment of the pencil factory.
Sheet of Paper.
Tt I* asserted that the Ntieet of pa
per on which one of the note* was
written bears the scarcely discernible
name of Becker, an ex-attache of the
Cotton States Melt inn and Supply Co.,
for which firm the sheet had once
borne an order. After being returned
to the pencil factory, as contended by
Crank's counsel, it was thrown into
the trashptle in the basement, where
tt was found by Conley.
List of Questions
Probably the most Interesting state
ment yet issued by l.eo. M. Crank in
connection with the murder for which
he has been sentenced to linn*. Is one
that he has furnished to the papers In
the form of a series of answers to
questions which were propounded to
hluu bearing on the ease.
"Ask me any questions you wish,”
Frank told the reporters.
In accordance with that, a list of
questions was written out which h»
asserted, comprised the 'most salient
point* tin* prosecution had brought
out against him, and to each of these
Frank has given an answer.
THE BIJOU
Max Hloom and lit* ronu any in
