Alfred Hebert, who was arrested on the West Side Wednesday morning by Constable D. F. Wells and locked up in the little station over there on the strength of a complaint that he had been engaged Tn creating a family jar, did not stay in custody any great length of time.
 Hebert evidently quickly sized up the possibilities of escape and. left to him self, crawled out of the cell through a small opening near the top, opened a window in the building and dropped out to the ground a few feet below He got away without being discovered and when the officer returned later he found the cell Uacant but locked.
 sequel to this event came in the afternoon when Chief Filling arrested Paul Hebert. a relative of the one who escaped. Paul was locked up for cre- ating a disturbance over at South Xiii ling1y. He will be presented in the town court this morning, as he will be given no chance to pull off a Houdini stunt.

Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgian.
MEXICO CITY, Oct. 24.-The peril
which has confronted American resi-
dents in Mexico was increased to-day.
AS a result Of the receipt of news
from Vera Cruz that the Mexican
gunboat Zaragoza had seized the
Ward liner MORO Castle. a United
States ship, and the preparations
which the American Consulate In We
ra Cruz has made to protect Felix
Diaz. the hatred of the Mexicans to-
ward citizens Of the United states
has been famed to a higher pitch
than at any time since the break be-
tween the Mexican and United States
Governments occurred.
The Governments explanation Of
the detention of the MORO Castle Is
that her captain was wanted to testi
fy in a case OF long standing. Gov
eminent officials declared that the or
der for the appearance OF Captain
HUFF in court was issued q week ago,
but II Is significant that the order was
not served until the MORO Castle was
ready to sail for Havana
The Mexican Government yielded

A vigorous assault upon the
character and reputation for
truthfulness Of men who swore
against A. II. Henslee and Mar
cellus Johenning, jurors in the
Frank trial, and and an equally
vigorous defense Of the two men
who are accused of bias and pref
udice, were made by Solicitor
Dorsey Friday afternoon at the
hearing on a new trial for Leo
M. Frank in the library Of the
State Capitol.
G. p Slough, OF Atlanta, an agent
for the Masonic Annuity, was one OF
those most bitterly attacked In the
affidavits filed with the court by the
Solicitor II. l.. Bennett swore that
he was well acquainted with the char
acter of Sough, and that he knew 1t
to be bad. He declared he would not
believe Slough on oath.
Lou Castro, a ball player, who was
one of the witnesses for the defense
during the trial, signed an affidavit
testifying that he knew Slough and
Sam Aaron, the latter another Of the
defense's atlantis, and that he would
believe neither upon oath.
w. p. Neil, who swore that he wit
messed one of the spectators in the
courtroom grab a juryman by the
arm as the jurors were entering. was
attacked in aff1davits signed by w. T.
Mote and r. H. Mckenzie, who as
serted that Neil's character was bad
and that they would not believe him
on oath.
A number of affidavits submitted by
the Solicitor testified to the good
character of -Ienslee and Johenning.
A long deposition by Hensee was
read, in which the Frank juror cate
gorically denied every charge OF bias
and prejudice made against him, and
said that on June 2, when he was

Mud Singing Hurts
Business, Gary Says

CHICAGO. Oct. 24.-Polltical mud
singing and the common belief that
every wealthy man has arisen to at
tiuence and power by other than hon
est means, were among the causes
attributed by Judge Ebert H. Gary
for the unsettled business conditions
Throughout the country, in his address
to-day at the semi annual meeting OF
the United States Steel CORPORATION.
This condition is largely due to
the unnecessary agitation and ILL
considered criticism by those who
have not the country's best interests
at heart" he said. There is too
much demagogy, to much mud
Singing. The men out of office criti-
else those In office; the officeholder,
In turn, tries to advance his own In
terests regardless of the effect upon
others"

so Girls Flee
From Flames.

Fire of unknown origin, which was
discovered in the structure formerly
occupied by the Brady Miller stables
At Marietta and Barlow streets, did
damage estimated at $4,000, threaten
I'd an entire block of business houses
and forced 80 girls to fee for their
lives Friday afternoon.
Not until practically the entire hre
department Joined in the battle were
the flames brought under control.
Smoke from the burning building
penetrated into that occupied by the
Atlanta Envelope Company, adjacent,
and threw its employees, half hun
cred Of whom are women and girls
into panic. At the first appearance
Of the smoke the cry of fire was car
ried from mouth to mouth through
out the three floors used by the enve-
Iope company.
A Rush for Exits.
Immediately a rush was made for
exits. The management of the COM
pany, realizing the peril of a panic,
quickly dispatched all the men at Its
command to quiet the terrorized en-
ployees and escort them safely to the
street.
The burning building, three-story
structure, was unoccupied II was the
property of the Miller Real Estate
and Investment Company and car
ried $4,000 insurance.
The flames were first discovered by
Il passerby. They originated. 1t was
later found, on the first floor in the
center of the building. Apparently
the fire had been in progress for some
time when the fire engines arrived. 1t
had gained tremendous Roadway.
Not only was the envelope COM
pany's building doomed, apparently,
but that also of the Capital City Chair
Company and the Capital City To-
oacco Company, which were ada

So fiercely did the flames eat their
way through the inside Of the burn
Ing structure that for a time II look
ed Is though they would leap over
INTO the adjoining buildings. To pre-
vent this several streams of water
played about the fire walls Of the for
mer stable and prevented further de-
Vastation.
An immense crowd, estimated at
1000 persons, gathered to witness the
nsht and greatly impeded the firemen
IN their work. Practically all trafflc
on Marietta street was demoralized.

Trial Of Mrs. King as Accomplish
in Staying to Begin
Monday.

MACON, Oct. ga Jones County
jury will decide tonight or to-mor-
row the fate Of Nick Wilbur
for the murder Of James King, the
farmer with whose wife he was in
fatuated
The arguments closed this after
noon about o'clock. Attorney Dean
Newman opened for the defense this
morning and was followed by Attor-
neys Jackson and Johnson for the
State. This afternoon Solicitor Pot
tie concluded for the prosecution
and Attorney Cooper for the defense.
A sudden change was made to-day
in the plans of the defense when Will
b Urn decided that he did not want to
take the stand and tell the jury about
the killing of King.
No Testimony by Defense.
wilbur had carefully planned q
statement asserting lf-defense and
denying the confessions. but his coun
sci advised him that there was no
element of self-defense in his case as
indicated by the testimony. Wilburn
then decided that he had better re-
main silent. Consequently, the de-
Tense did not offer any direct testi-
mony and allowed the evidence sub
mitted by the State to go to the Jury
unchanged except for cross examina-
ton.
Attorney Cooper made motion for
a mistrlal upon the converting OF
court, on the ground that w. L. Mid
dlebrooks, one of the Jurors, was re-
lated to Mrs. King, but he was over
ruled.
Mrs. Kings Trial Monday.
Judge Park announced from the
bench that the trial of Mrs. King will
start Monday morning. Her attor-
ney, State Senator w. d. Mcneil, Of
Macon, states that she will positively
take the stand.
She has nothing to hide" he said,
and l am confident that when the
Jurors hear her remarkable statement,
the most remarkable that l have ever
heard, they will unhesitatingly find
her not guilty"
Mrs. King will not offer any witness
in her behalf, unless character wit
nesses be presented. Mr.. Mcneil has
not decided yet whether or not he will
pursue this course, but he believes
now that he will simply submit her
statement to the jury.
The most damaging testimony that
the State will offer against Mrs. King
will be her alleged confession made
the day of her arrest.
Court Admits Confession.
A stubborn effort was made by the
defense yesterday afternoon to keep
from the Jury the confession made by
Wilburn on the night OF his arrest,
while he was being hurried through
the woods to Macon to escape mob
violence last December. 1t was ar
gued bv Attorney Cooper that the
confession was wrung from the de-
PENDANT by threats and intimidation.
Judge Park allowed the confession to
go to the jury. as 1t was related by
County Treasurer Etheridge.
