CONTRADICTIONS IN
TESTIMONY CLAIMED
Witness Unable to Explain Names of
Republicans Alleged to Have
Been Placed on "Black List"
by Whip of the House

Washington, August Most of the
manufacturers of the country have ig-
nored the lists of questions sent them
by the Senate finance committee in re-
gard to their industries and the prob
able effect upon them of the democratic
tariff revision. Senator LaFollette told
the Senate today that only sc replies
had been received to the $500 sets OF
questions mailed by the committee to
manufacturers who had protested
against proposed rates of duty and sug-
gested that the manufacturers must re
confident of not being hurt by the new
tariff or were not altogether frank
Oppose Increase
Senator LaFollette, originator of the
idea of sending out the questions with
the hope of throwing light on tariff
revision, had his own list mailed along
with that of the committee. lie de-
cared the few replies received afford
ed little information, particularly con-
corning the comparative cost of pro-
duction in the United States and in
competing countries.

DOCTOR COLLAPSES
WHILE ON STAND IN
MARY PHAGAN TRIAL
Startling Evidence Is Pro-
duced by State-Claimed
That Girl Never Left
Factory Before Death

Atlanta, August 1.--While in the midst
of the most startling evidence yet pro-
duced by the state in the trial of Leo
NJ Frank for the murder of Mary Pha-
gan, the 14-year-old factory girl, Dr.
II. r. Harris, secretary of the state
board of health, collapsed late today. He

DR.. Harris testified that the girl must

before her body was discovered in the
basement of the pencil factory. DR.. Har-
ris said that he had made a careful ex-
animation of the contents of the Phagan
girls stomach. and that he found the
food she had eaten had not been more
than partially digested He produced some
of this food in court, encased in glass
jar, together with another jar containing
fully digested food of a similar nature.
The witness said that he was positive
the girl was murdered within from half
to three quarters of an hour after she
ate the food he exhibited.
Never Left Factory
This, it was contended by the state,
proved that the girl never left the fac
tory after calling for her pay on the aft
ernoon of April 26. DR.. Harris, after fur
ther questioning, said that he had made
a careful examination of the Phagan
girls physical condition, and that there
were unmistakabe evidence of violence

"The Mediterranean Of the
North"

The reason why the Hudson Bay
project is advocated so warmly is
that the bay Itself. described by
some as "the Mediterranean Of the
North" is the third largest sea"
in the world and gives access to
region that promises to rival in the
future the group of Northwestern
States of the American Union. The
area of the Mediterranean is 977. 900
square miles; Of the Baltic $4,000;
of Hudson Bay 355,0O0. It's length
is 800 miles and breath 500. and,
compared with the Great Lakes, it
is vertiable ocean. for Lake Su-
perior's area is only 81 900 square
miles; Lake Huron's but 23,000;
Lake Michigan'sa scant 22,500; Lake
Erie's merely $3.50; and Lake Ont
ario's barely 7,240. The outlet of
Hudson Bay to the Atlantic is Hnd-
son Strait, nearly 500 miles long,
with an average bereath of 100
miles, its narrowest width being 60
miles. so that this whole marine

THE LYcEU M.

The first of our features for the present week comes from the MaJas- tic company, the new Majestic con- pany that produces only feature pie lures. Romance and Duty" is the title and 1t is a gripping story of a conflict between love and duty. At some stage of ones life this same conflict has appeared in life's horizon "a time when one must decide be- tween the love of man or woman and devotion to duty. There have been so many different solutions to this problem that you will appreciate the manner in which the Majestic stars have solved it.
 Reliance completes the program with one of it's ever beautiful noun tain dramas, 1.-TWO Girls of the Hills. :" This picture abounds in some of the finest scenery and stage settings, while the work of the Reliance cast shown in this picture is far above the average for real dramatic film story.
 Tomorrow comes another beautiful Domino feature, and later in the week Kay-Bee comes with a special extra reel offering. Our features for this week are all good ones, the kind the Mutuals always send out.
