AWFUL ERROR. DECLARES BURNS Sleuth, in Card, Says Evidence in Frank’s Conviction Insuf ficient. Denies Bribery Con nection. Atlanta.—When William ,T. Burns returned to Atlanta from Chattanooga, upon his arrival here he gave out a written statement to the press In which he made absolute denial of any connection with the alleged bribe of fer of S2OO to Itev. ('. li. Ragsdale in return for an affidavit from the preacher to the effect that he heard Jim Conley confess to the murder of Mary Phagan. The detective also takes occasion in this card to assert positively and em phatically the Innocence of Frank, and declares that "In driving Deo Frank to his death without giving him a fair trial, you (the people of Atlanta) are making the most horrible, the most awful, mistake I ever heard of." Burn*” Statement. The card of Mr. Burns follows in full: "My statement in the afternoon pa ! perspers in regard to the Ragsdale af j fidavit was made In response to an in complete account of the uffair received by long distance phone. 1 have since rear] the account in the papers of his being driven out of his I church and his mental affliction, i which puts the matter In a new and I pitiful light. I wish to say that I am sorry for this unfortunate man. but I ju.usl also say that Ids statement- that 1 1. "r anyone else In the employ of Urn I Burns agency, bribed, or attempted to bribe, him Is utterly untrue. In mentioning my name as one of those present when the affidavit was "drawn” from him, he Is stating a downright falsehood. I never laid eves on the man in my life, do not know him and was never In his pres ence [f he made this statement, and If there Is any manhood left In him, he will come out and disavow It. I am satisfied It was forced out of him by threats and Intimidation. Please let me say In connection with this Ragsdale affair that it illustrates what 1 have so often observed: that the commission of one great wrong In variably leads to the commission of other wrongs, I would like to say one thing to the people of Atlanta. In all my exper ience I have never been so moved in all my life iiH I have been by the Frank Frank case. Rutting back of this state ment all my experience of thirty years In the study and detection of crime. I say to you more earnestly than I over spoke in my life, that In driving I,eo M. Frank to his death without giving him a fair trial, you are making the most horrible, the most awful mistake I ever heard of. Say* Frank I* Innocent. I believe that you will grant that I am entitled to speak as an expert In matters relating to crime and criminal evidence, and speaking as such 1 tell you that l,eo M. Frank Is an Innocent man, that the evidence on which he was convicted was utterly Insufficient and that bringing on his execution un der such conditions you are doing him. a frightful Injustice and Inflicting on your city an Irreparable injury. Noth Withstanding (hut twelve hon est men found Deo M. Frank guilty. I say to you that the conditions that ex isted tn Atlanta at that time made It absolutely Impossible to give him a fair trial If the members of that Jury Were to discuss the events leading up to the rendering of their verdict, they would tell you that the very atmos phere was charged with the’ story of perversion, perversion, perversion, and that, together with the atrocious crime of the murder of this innocent little girl, nrnused the community to a fren zy that made a fair consideration of the case Impossible, I consider that my work In the FVnnk case, which was to ascertain the truth Is practically completed. 1 have abso lutely cleared Is>o M. Frank of the charge of perversion, which was whol ly responsible for his conviction, and I have also demonstrated, beyond the shadow of a doubt, by Incontrovertible ALLEN’S FOOT-EASE The Antisepticpowder shaken Into the shnet— The Standard Rem edy lor the teel for a quarter century. .10.000 testimonial*.

Your Song Book is Ready Today two detectives as they stood beside their auto in a local garage, jeering and hooting him. Robert Howell, a prominent young man of the city, slap ped Burns’ face in a heated reepartee, daring the noted slueth to touch him. For a time it appeared as though the two men would suffer seriously. Burns ran to the Whitlock hotel, where a large crowd gathered and dared him to come out. Finally under the spell of addresses by Newt Morris and by T. M. Brumby, Sr., it was agreed to let Burns come forth, provided that Brumby would take him out of the county. Mr. Brumby agreed and, amid jeers and hoots, Burns was hurried ou) of Mari etta and on his way to Atlanta. In the meantime the sheriff had tak en charge of McWorth and had shot him out of the back way into a cab and along the Roswell road to safetty. HIS TURN. Mr. McCaudle’s untoward behavior during the evening out was serving as the topic of the customary curtain-lec ture. “I trust I have made myself plain, ' icily continued his better half, in the early stages of her preparations for re tiring. Her crushed, downtrodden victim, casting a haggard eye in her direction, gave vent to a hollow chuckle. ‘‘Yes, my dear,’’ he assented; "I can not but acknowledge that you have.” And during the period of scornful si lence which ensued, McCaudle dropped off a peaceful slumber —Judge.
