Capturer Of Criminals From
Violence at Pier.

NEW YORK, Oct 2s.--The hyste-
ria pervading political circles since
Ex-Governor sulzer and his chief in
vestigator, John A. Hennessy, began
their attack on Tammany and Charles
F. Murphy was increased to-day by
rumors that a plot had been discov-
cred to assassinate Detective William
]. Burns to prevent his revealing evil
dence that he has secured against a
prominent politician.
When Burns landed at Hoboken
from the liner Imperator on his ar
rival from Europe he was immediate
ly surrounded by a bodyguard of
eighteen detectives.
"rhe chief has received word that
he is to be done away with" said one
Of the detectives. THE tip came
from a reliable source. That's why
we met him to-day" Z.
Burns refused to discuss the warn
Ing, but made this significant re-
mark
Il do not fear assassination at the
hands of dynamiters whom l have
prosecuted. am after the grafters
| am after the big fellows. They are
the men who are making trouble, and
they are my enemies"
He refused to comment on reports
that he had been abroad to get evil
dence there relating to grating in
this city.

Bowen Wins Fight
To Retain Office

JACKSONVILLE. Oct. 29.-County
Commissioner P. S. Bowen has won
his fight in the Circuit Court to re-
tain his position as a county official.
Judge Daniel A. Simmons this after
noon sustained his demurrer to quo
warranto proceedings brought by
George w. Clark, who claimed that
the commissioner had vacated his
seat on the board by accepting q
deputyship under Sheriff w. H. Dow
ling.
The point was made that the law
required the filing Of bond by the
deputy and that Mr. Bowen had never
filed such bond, and had therefore not
qualified as deputy sheriff.

day Mary Phagan was murdered
was reserved as the browning
point of his argument for q new
trial by Luther z. Rosser We'd
nesday afternoon. The Frank
attorney commended that the ali
bi, which he represented as iron
clad, was an added and clinch-
ing reason for another trial for
the convicted man.
Rosser closed his argument
shortly before 5 o'clock and the
case went over to Judge Roam
for his decision.
The alibi, Mr.. Rosser asserted,
was given its final touch Of sta
bility by one of the States own
witnesses. He recalled to the
court that Conley had testified
that he and Frank had begun
the disposal of the little girls
body at SO o'clock and had
finished at Il 80. If this state
ment was found false, and it was
established that Frank was not
there during that time, the law
yer said, Conley's whole story
fell to the ground.
The first prop knocked from undsr
Conley's testimony, according TO Ros-
ser, was by Miss Helen Kern. who de-
clared that she saw Frank at White
hall and Alabama streets at 1:1o
o'clock the afternoon of the murder.
The other props were knocked out,
he said, by Mrs. Jacob Levy and by
Franks own relatives who declared
that the superintendent arrived home
at 1870.
"As If this were not sufficient" said
Rosser, Albert Mcknight, the state.
witness, swore that he saw Frank
home at 1880, exactly at the moment
Conley swore he departed from the
factory leaving Frank inside"
Rosser declared the allegations of
perversion against Frank, ana thew
alone, had tried and convicted the
man.
You might as we'll have put the
brand OF Cain upon his forehead as to
have introduced that revolving and
maliciously false testimony" he
shouted at Solicitor Dorsey. You
destroyed his life the instant YOU
brought that IN. There is no doubt
about that.
