yers are making ready for titanic
struggle.
Dorsey Is Determined.
The Solicitor is determined that
the verdict of guilty shall stand. He
is using every means to stave off
what he regards as the remote pos
sibility of a reversal of the verdict
that brought the death sentence to
the defendant
Solicitor Dorsey prepared his re-
quest Wednesday for a delay of an
other week in the hearing Judge
Roam already had made known his
willingness to extend the time if it
was needed by the Solicitor. When
he learned that Dorsey would not be
ready next Saturday he promptly an
nounced that the delay would be
granted in accordance with his prom
Use.
While the Solicitor is busily en-
gagged reviewing the reasons OF the
defense, Franks lawyers are seeking
more witnesses who are said to have
heard Henslee and other jurors make
remarks before the trial indicating
their violent prejudice.

DISAPPOINTMENT
N FRANK CASE
MADE CERTAIN
Letter From Dorsey Requests
Judge Roam to Let Argu-
ments Go Over.

A letter received in Atlanta Thurs
day from Solicitor Dorsey made GER
tain the postponement of arguments
for a new trial for Leo NJ Frank
which were to have been heard Sat-
urday by Jddge Roam. E.
The letter. animated that the So
licitor and his assistant. A. E. Ste
phens, who are now In Valdosta,
would not return to this city before
next Wednesday or Thursday. Mr..
Dorsey requested that Judge Roam be
asked to postpone, in addition to the
Frank arguments, hearings on FIVE
other motions which were scheduled
for Saturday. This will clean the So
hcitors slate and will not neces-
state his return.
Defense Doesn't Object.
The postponement is wholly within
the discretion of Judge Roam, and the
defense in all probability would inter
pose no objection, even if it did not
entirely suit their wishes. 1t is ,un-
derstood, however, that Franks law
yers are satisfied with the delay, as it
affords them time TO obtain addition
al evidence of REPORTED bias on the
part Of A. H. Henslee, Marcellus Jo-
henning and one or two other Frank
jurors.

iant A. E. Stephens, has been going

leader in the half-word Before that she
had been the friend of a duke of historic
lineage, whose coat of arms was tattooed
upon her skin. She furnished her mansion
with exquisite taste. 1t was filled with pic
lures and sculptures of the highest art but all
of character in keeping with the revels that
took place there. There was, for instance, a
series of wall paintings reproducing the
Eleusinian mysteries.
All the men who had ever known this re-
markable girl became her slaves, no matter
what place they held in her affections or
emotions. AS Gree of old changed all the
men whom she touched into swine, so did
this modern Partisan witch. They lost all
human sense of shame; they came night
after night to drug themselves and wallow
in the gilded pig trough of Gree.
By day the house was sombTe and silent.
All night it was brilliantly lighted and the
noise of revelry carried far beyond the eX-
tensve grounds High-powered automobiles
from Paris came n a long procession. There
were Frenchmen With names famous in his
tory, leaders of the financial world members
of the cosmopolitan society of Paris, and
American millionaires. Most of the visitors
brought women with them, and, strange to
say, some of the women were of good social
position.

credible debauches that occurred there. All
the habitues-men and women-were ad-

Hasheesh opium, cocaine and ether were
consumed by them in enormous quantities.
Pierrette was the greatest drug user of all
She smoked seventy or eighty cigarettes
daily, loading them heavily with opium.
One night some fifty men and women gave
themselves up to hasheesh debauch in the
main salon of the mansion. Under the influ-
ence of this terrible drug they attacked each
other murderously, biting with their teeth
and tearing with their nails, until many were
dangerously injured. In the cold gray dawn
the wounded we're put in their automobiles
by their servants and hurried away to Paris.
They had debauches of strange, Intoxicating
perfumes One night they lay upon divans in

drank wines and liquors from rosecolored
glasses and smoked cigarettes of rose leaves
STEPPED in opium. All of them passed into
dull sleep or insenebility. In the morning a
dozen of them were unconscious The SER
vices of four DOCTORS highly paid to prevent
them from publishing the f cts, were required
to bring the debauchees back to life.
Pierrette was greatly addicted to ether.
After night spent in violent and noisy de.
hatchery she would stupefy herself for a day
or more with the drug. On Sunday night
she inhaled nearly quart of ether. At mid
night her maid, Louise ARRAY, found her ly-
ing senseless on her bed with each hand full
Of cotton wool soaked in the drug and the
empty bottle by her side. Restoratives were
given to her.
Toward morning her friends and servants
left her alone for a time. Then she got DOS

she was found dead with a sheet soaked with
the drug wrapped round her head. She had
paid the penalty of her life of frantic luxury

The shocking revelations concerning the
orgies at the Villa continue to be made
public. The names of wellknOwn men who
had taken part in them are daily growing
more and more numerous II is not believed
that any action can be taken against these
men, but there is strong demand that the
sale of dangerous drugs should be restricted.
Owing TO the position of the men involved at
the head of society and business, their exam
pie is likely to have very bad effect on the
whole community.
On the day of Pierettes funeral another
extraordinary spectacle was witnessed. All
the well-known men who had known her in
any way walked at the head of the
funeral procession. An hour before the
ceremony, which was at 8 o'clock in
the morning, they began to arrive in
their automobiles.
Among them were Baron James de
Rothschild, Baron Coonna de Caccaldi,
Prince dOrleans, the Comte de Laroch-

The hearse was completely buried in flow
