BURKS IS AFTER OTHER SLEUTHS Detective Says His First Move Will Be to Quis All of Them In Murder Case. Atlanta, Ga. PltMtlVt William .1 Hums is going to quiz every detec tive of police headquarter* who had anything to do with the Investigation of Mary Thnngan's murder anil the conviction of Leo M. Trank, He Is likewise going to Interview Solicitor Hugh M. Dorsey and prtvite Investigators attached to the solicitor's staff. lie Is planning to confer with over)- mi, I In Atlanta who was con nected In any manner with the Pha gan Investlgutlon. He held a lengthy talk with the prisoner In the Tower lust night. Dur ing Monday afternoon he was closeted with Leonard Haas, counsel for the defense, In the Haas oflces. where he went thoroughly over the brief of evi dence submitted by Frank's counsel at llie application for a new trial before the supreme court. Will Interview Lanford. Hums will likely seek a conference with Chief Newport A. Lanford some time today—or. perhaps, tomorrow. Among those he intends to interview will he John Itluck, headquarters' prin cipal figure In the Investigation and Detectives Pot Campbell and John Starnes. Campbell and Starnes were named as prosecutors in the tdll of Indictment returned by the grand Jury against Frank. Among others whom Hums expects to talk with at police headquarters are Detectives J. A. Chew ning and W. IL Norris, the two sleuths accused by Nt na Form by of having coerced her Into swearing in an affidavit to an untrue story against the convicted superin tendent. Chief Reavers will also llkelv be consulted by the detective. Solicitor Dorsey, when seen by reporters Mon day afternoon, was asked if he would co-operate with Rums. He would not clmmit himself, suving merely: "I would rather not tulk of the sub ject." Hums’ plan to quiz the police head quarters' detectives creates interesting speculation. Police officials have stated In the past, however, that Ilia great detective, in event lie convinced them that he was seeking nothing but the truth, would receive their full co operation. New State Evidence. It has been said by a member of the detective bureau thut Chief Lanfmd has recently unearthed an amount of evidence that will lie valuable to the prosecution In event of possible future complications. Some of this evidence, It Is said. Is In refutation of an amount of newly discovered evidence posses sedd by Frank’s defense. It is stated that evidence benrlng on the Story of Mrs J. B. Simmons, of Birmingham, whose sensational affi davit was disclosed some few davs ago. Is in the hands of the beadqua?- ters' detectives. Chief Lanford will neither deny nor affirm the statement that he has additional evidence of nidi nature. Albert McKnight was sllghtlv im proved at the Falrhaven hospital Mon day. He is barely able to talk, how ever, and is still In a dangerous con dition. C. W. Burke, the private In vestigator for the defense, sought to quiz the negro Monday, but to no avail. He stated to reporters tlrnt Mc- Knight was not able to talk to even him. Suspicion that McKnight was as saulted Instead of Injured while leap ing from a Southern train at Rose land has arisen In the minds of mem bers of the defense One member frankly stated Monday afternoon that he believed McKnight had been at tacked for some unknown reason. Other members of the defensv, how ever. would not comment upon th ; s statement. They anxiouslv await though, the negro's recovery sufficient to explain his mytserious accident.
