A Street Car Delirium.

The doors in the street car keep shifting.
They're modelled both narrow and wide.
They open by swinging and lifting
And some of them gracefully slide.
You fear, as they madly unwind them,
You'll be lost to your home and your
friends.
Sometimes in the middle you find them.
But mostly they grow at both ends,

one of the interesting disclosures OF
the hearing. Attorney Luther Ros-
ser. chief of counsel for Frank, as
serted that they would have "eaten
the defendant alive" if he had gone
out among them on the day the YER
dict was rendered. particularly if an
acquttal had been brought in,
Take Advantage of Absence.
Solicitor Dorsey contended that
the defense had waived the presence
of Frank in the courtroom at the
time the verdict was rendered and
now were taking advantage of 1t to
claim that their client would have
been mobbed or lynched had he been
there, when, as a matter of fact,
there was no way of proving that
Frank might have received not even
a hostile demonstration.
warm dispute arose over this
contention, during which it developed
that the court was adjourned in the
midst OF Dorsey's concluding argu-
ment Saturday noon to permit the
intense feeling to subside. and that
later Franks presence at the render
ing Of the verdict was waived by hts
attorneys at the suggestion of Judge
Roam himself. Judge Roam had been
addressed by the editors of the three
Atlanta newspapers, militia officials
and the chief of the police depart
ment, and urged, it was claimed to
tHke every precaution for the safe
guarding Of the prisoner, against
whom there was Enthusiastically hostile
sentiment.
The hostile sentiment against Frank
was emphasized in many of the rea-
sons advanced for a new trial To
most of them Judge Roam certified as
they were submitted. The trial was
taken from Its outset, and note made
of every outbreak inside and outside
the courtroom. The ovations received
by Solicitor Dorsey were described
infinitely, and the occasions of ap-
plause and cheering inside the court
room when Dorsey scored a point
were stressed repeatedly.

American Liner Held
BY Huerta; Peril Grows.

special Gable TO The Atlanta Georgian.
MEXICO CITY. Oct. 2A--The peril
which has confronted American resi-
dents In Mexico was increased to-day.
AS result of the receipt of news
from Vera Cruz that the Mexican
gunboat Zaragosa 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
ernment officials declared that the or
der for the appearance of Captain
HUFF in court was issued a week ago.
but 1t Is Significant that the order was
not served until the Moro Castle was
ready to sail for Havana
The real reason for the hold-up Of
the vessel, however, is believed to be
the fact that eight of the thirteen
members of the Vera Cruz State Leg
islature had taken passage on the
ship for Havana because of threats
made against them for opposing
Huerta's policies. Their fight is
thought to have been the reason why
the port authorities refused TO give
Captain HUFF his clearance papers.
Mrs. Lind Virtual Prisoner.
The MORO Castle Incident concerns
the United States more deeply than
otherwise would have been the case,
because Mrs John Lind. wife OF Pres
ident Wilson's special envoy to Mex
leo, was a passenger on the liner, and
virtually was made a prisoner by the
Mexican Government when the ship
was detained.
Charge d'Affaires Nelson OShaugh-
messy, Of the United States Embassy,
expected to hear from his Govern
ment to-day in response to an appeal
made by Mr.. Lind after the MORO
Castle was held.

The reason charged that the
court erred in not instructing the
jury that if they believed from
the evidence that Conley watched
for Frank at the pencil factory
door, and that his purpose in
watching was to protect Frank
in the commission of acts which
constitute a felony in the State
of Georgia, then Conley, as to
any alleged murder committed
in the progress of any such at
tempt to commit the acts that
were described by the negro,
would be an accomplice, and the
jury could not give him Gre
dence unless he was corrobo-
rated by the facts and circum-
stances or by another witness.

on the closing days of the trial was
