CITY TIGHT With beer
At $40 PER BARREL
ANOTHER CARLOAD SEIZED BY
OFFICER TILLOTSON SAT-
URDAl NIGHT.

The lid was screwed on several
notches tighter last night in the city
of Tulsa than It has ever been and
il was claimed that II was next to
impossible to get a drink of beer at
any price. one of the fraternity
was the authority for the statement
that the price Of beer has advanced
to $40 "A barrel but the worst of II
was that none was to be had even at
that figure. The direct reason for
the drouth is said to be the continued
presence of Bert TillOtson, the state
enforcement officer whom Governor
Cruce sent here sometime ago to
close the town. Whether or not he
liz doing the job up to a nice brown
finish or Tulsa is just naturally get
ting good, 1t is difficult to determine
at this time but one thing is sure
and that is that for some reason OF
other the lid is on good and tight.
A consignment Cf beer was at
tempted to be brought i'm Saturday
night but it was caught on the road
i'm from Dawson and poured out on
the hot dry ground. The car was
routed to Fort Worth and was set on
the side track on account of, bad con
dition and when it was picked up II
was discovered that 1t was so light
that il could hardly keep the track.
but the worst of il was that the wet
goods even when that close to Their
destination fell into the hands Of Til
lotson and his assistants and was
poured out in sight Of a city of thrs-
ty citizens who are daily perishina
for Just a drop Of real beer. Tulsa
for "onc'p' IN its life is actually
suffering for something with which
to slack its thirst.

The senate committee had its usual

such statements to he absolutely

BREAK DOWN THE
STORY OF NEGRO
ADMITTED HE DID NOT KNOW
KNOW WHETHER HIS STORY
WAS TRUE.
said FRANK killed Girl
Testified That Defendant Killed Girl
When She Repulscd Undcsir-
able Attentions.

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 4.--Counsel
for Leo NJ. Frank, on trial for the
murder of Mary Phagan spent the
entire afternoon today In gruelling
cross examination of James Conley,
negro sweeper. at the pencil factory,
where the girls body was found.
Cross examination had not been con
cluded when court adjourned. The
negro earlier i'm the day accused the
defendant Of being a degenerate and
charged that Frank killed the little
factory girl because she repulsed his
undesirable attentions.
While this sensational testimony
resulted in a court order barring
women from the trial, no reference
was made directly in the cross eX-
animation to this part of the negro's
testimony.
Counsel for the defense vollied
question after question at the negro,
in what they explained was test OF
his memory.
Little was brought out in the ex-
animation. After Conley had re
peatcdly stated in reply to questions
that he didn't know" or didn't re-
member" he was asked by counsel
for the defense:
The truth about this matter is,
Jim, that you told SO many stories
that you can't tell just what you did
tell. can you?'
mo sir, cant tell whether it's
true or not" the witness replied.
isn't it the truth, Jim, that you
made one verbal statement at the po-
lice station and after that made three
affidavits, and none If them were
true?"
mo, sir, some is true" replied
Conley.
As an excuse for discrepancies in
his stories of the murder, Conley de
clared:
81 Just didn't want to give the man
away. | thought he'd look out fo1
me-"
