DORSEY HAS A SECRET CONFAB In Conference With Frank Juror. Burns Says He'll Convince Solicitor. Atlanta, Ga. —The news which leak ed from the office of Solicitor Dorsey yesterday that Dorsey had held a se cret conference with Marcellus Joh enning, a Juror In the Frank case, has created wide speculation in camps of both the prosecution and defense. Horsey, when asked about the se cret conference, had nothing to say. He seemed surprised that It ha* be come known, .lohennlng would not talk, saying that he had merely bad a few words with the solicitor. He would not divulge the nature of their conversation and aaked the reporter to please not prfcss questions. Solicitor’s Force Busy. The solicitor's forces were busy Sun day considering the amazing develop ments from tlie defense during the past few days. The letters that were published Sunday morning, as well as the affidavits in which Conley is al leged to have confessed to Mary Pha gan's murder, will he invesigated this week. Numerous witnesses were brought to the solicitor's of I ire Friday and Saturday for the purpose of making affidavits, and he has accumulated a inaas of evidence whicr will be used in a vigorous opposition to the new trial movement which the defense Is making before Judge Hill. Mr. Dorsey plans to hold secret all evidence until the time of Its presen tation to Judge Hill. The evidence which he is believed to have obtained from Juror Johenning is being guard ed closely. He is also carefully guarding numerous affidavits said to have been made by witnesses who have also made affidavits for the de fense. Will Convince Solicitor. Detective Burns said Sunday that there was no doubt that Conley was guilty, and that. In due tome, he would place before Solicitor Dorsey tarts that, would convince the prose cution that Frank was Innocent. One of the strongest foundations for Burns' statement Is the series of let lers, which as the detective stated, were written by Jim Conley. These letters were revealed to newspaper men, bui were too vile for publication They are shot through with Conley's lust for the negro wo man to whom they were written. Burns says he has also come in pos j session of numerous letters from other sources which were written by j the convicted accomplice. A MIRACULOUS ESCAPE FROM SERIOUS INJURY I i Families of A. J.
