PHAGAN MURDER
MYSTERY Still
BATTLES POLICE
THINK FRANK is GUILTY one
And Effort to Convict May
Center There

Atlanta, Ga, May SIT appears
this morning to be reasonably safe
prediction that the Phagan murder
case is going to fizzle out without the
conviction of anybody The most un-
prejudlced and tmpersonal view that
has been taken of the case from the
start by anybody Immediately connect
ed with it, is probably that of the
newspaper men detailed by the local
paper to cover" the story
They believed sincerely for several
days that Frank was the guilty man,
and they expected to see evidence dis
closed to prove it. But today they in
cline to the view that Frank has been
the victim of circumstances, and that
he knows nothing about the murder.
The detectives still maintain that
they have got the right man, but the
unfortunate propensity Atlanta city
detectives have shown in past cases
to secure convictions, rather than JUS
tice, makes their opinions practically
worthless so far as deducing anything
from them is concerned
The coroner's inquest yesterday
evening, which was expected to dis
close facts and horrors unimaginable,
disclosed nothing that was not already
known.
The arrest of the man in Texas was
an idiotic mistake The police here
have neither clue nor evidence, nor
even suspicion against a single living
soul, with the exception of Frank and
the negro janitor They have aban-
doned the theory that the negro jan
itor himself committed the crime.
Therefore, in the event the police
fail to get evidence that will convict
Frank, there is every reason to ex-
pect that the case will dwindle away
into an unsolved mystery.
The detectives are going to try to
convict Frank. 1t is their only chance
to make good" on the case, But the
police department as a whole, and the
solicitor generals office are all en-
gagged in the investigation, so that il
Frank is really innocent, he may ney-
er even be indicted by grand jury.

PICNIC SEASON WILL

The picnic season is at hand, AMI
soon the Sunday schools of Americus
will complete plans for their annual
outings. The Furlow Lawn Sunday
school has already selected May Both

be given at Myrtle Springs as here
tofore, the picnickers going out in
cars and wagons for a day at this
favorite resort.
The other Sunday schools have not
perfected plans as yet, but this will
probably be done next Sunday. The
First Baptist Sunday school usually
goes out of town for its annual out
ing, and may do 30 this year, al
though no plans to that effect have
been completed.

MILITANTS DO
IMMENSE DAMAGE
With TORCHES
loss EXCEEDS FIVE MILLIONS
Inflicted by "VOtGs for WOm-
en-" Advocates

London, May S.-Damage to prop
erty in the British Isles caused by
militant suffragettes during the past
three months amounts to more than
$5,000,000, occording to an official es-
innate made today by authorities at
police headquarters in Scotland Yard.
To this sum they say must be added
the increased cost of protecting lives
and property
Three detectives have been assign
ed to watch each member of the cabf-
net at all times, while all suspected
persons are shadowed at all times by
plain clothes men, and all public build
ings have been placed under special
guard.
Figured at this rate the suffragette
activities are costing the country It
least $25,OO0,OOO year.
The militant section of the British
suffragettes intend to institute a cam
paign of exceptional violence to avenge
the defeat of the woman'se suffrage
bill Tuesday night and the prosecution
of the central militant organization.
Advanced members of the fighting sis
terhood declared today that "the even f..
of the last few days are to be eclipsed
by worse things to come"
Votes for Women" the woman suf-
frage newspaper, edited by MIR. and
Mrs. Patrick Lawrence, says today:
I'VE see before the country a period
of disaster and disorder, such as has.
not been known in decades, perhaps
for centuries. We see the prospect of
violence being answered by violence
in terrible crescendo. We see the
likelihood of crimes being sympathiz-
ed with, if not condoned and approved
by many of the most respected, law
abiding members of the community"
The police authorities are greatly
concerned about the increase of the
bomb attacks on buildings Another
outrage by suffragettes was attempt-
ed at Tottenham in the northeast OF
London this morning. Like that depos-
tied yesterday in st. Pauls cathedral
the bomb was discovered before It
had time to explode. 1t was found
by a caretaker outside the door of a
shop
The authorities have secured evi-
dence that many former constitu-
tional suffragettes have joined the
militant body since the defeat of the
woman suffrage bill. There is no
question that the number of miIitants
is growing larger, 4
