Altants, Or.—ln a decision handed down Wednesday afternoon the supremo court of Georgia affirmed the decision »>f Judge Benjamin H. Hill In denying the extraordinary motion of Leo M. Frank fog* a new trial on the grounds of newly discovered evidence. The decision of the state’s highest tri bunal, denying Frank a new trial, leaves the man convicted of the murder of Mary I'hagun In the basement of the National Pencil Factory on April 24th, I*l3, with only one more chance In the courts. The motion to set aside the verdict on the ground that Frank was not In the court room when the verdict was ren. dts-pd, which was denied by Judge Hill, hss been appealed lo the supreme court. *nd will be argued the latter part of this month A decision will follow some weeks later. Should the state supreme court refuse the motion to set aside the verdict Franks lawyers can appeal to the T'nlted States supreme court. It Is said, us a constitutional point is In volved. Court's Decision. In affirming the lower court's decis ion the supreme court held ss follows: "1. After n person accused of crime has been convicted und a new trial has been dented and the Judgment has been affirmed by this court, an extraordinary motion for s new trial, on the grounds of newly discovered evidence Is address ed to the sound discretion of tbs trial Judge (there being such general rules, ss to evidence of psrtlculsr crime end as to diligence, etc.) and the refusal to grant a new trial, on such a motion, will not be reverted, unless such discre tion Is abused. "S. In view of the nature of the al leged newly discovered evidence, on the basis of which sn extraordinary mo tion for a new trial was made In the present case, and of the strong counter showing mad* by the state In regard to It, there was no abuse of discretion on th# pert of the trial Judge In refusing to grant a new trial, or was there error I noverrullng th# motion on any of the grounds set out therein.” After th* foregoing headnotee. the su preme court briefly recite* the history of the case up to and Including the fil ing of the extraordinary motion for * n*w trial. It mention* th* fact that In the first trial Frank was convicted; that appeal was taken to the supreme court, that the supreme court afArmed th* Judgment of the lower court; and an application was then made by tbs de fense for a re-hearing before the su preme court, which was denied, and that then the extraordinary motion for a new trial was mad* Discretion Not Abused. Th* supreme court holds that “when sn extraordinary motion for a new trial la mad*, tvised on the ground of newly dierovered evidence. It slioulu be made to appear that such evidence Is so ma terial that tt would probably produce a different verdict.” Continuing the deci sion says "On the bearing of such a motion, tb* court may hear affidavits, making a counter-showing on behalf of th* state, so a* to go to the bottom of the showing to discover. If posslh’e, how much of real merit there Is in the alleged new evidence ” Finally, th* court holds a* follows: • tV* dram It unnecessary lo lake up each of the grounds of the motion and discuss them separately In the light of the evidence offered In support of them, end of the counter showing made by the slate It Is enough to soy that, offer e consideration of them. It cannot be held that th* discretion of the presiding Judge In refusing to tfnnt the extra ordinary motion was abused, or that a csss Is made requiring a reversal ” Th* decision then affirms the Judg ment of Judge Hill in overruling the ex traordinary motion. All six at th* Judge* concur in this decision. The extraordinary motion for a new trial, shed by Franks attorneys, al leged numerous grounds. principal of which was th* contention that Hr. H. F. Harris, state medical expert, had de clared that hair found on th* turning lathe In the pencil factory dlffiWed from the lintr taken front Mary Phagsn after her death; an affidavit by Rev J.
