STATE TOIGNORE
FORMBY FRANK
AFFIDAVIT.
Attorney Hooper, Prosecutors
Aide, Declares Justice Is
Aim in Phagan Case.
Continued From Page 1.

80 was discussed Saturday by per-
sons interested in the case. The at
torneys for the accused man have
stated that they were prepared to go
into court at any time, although it is
not usual to give the defense so lit
tie time in a capital case.
Frank was arrested April 29. If
his case is called June 80. only two
months will have elapsed since he
was seriously suspected Of being in
VOWED in the crime. More time than
this ordinarily is given the attorneys
for the defense to investigate every
circumstance and story which may
point TO the innocence of their client
II Is known that Judge L. S. Roam,
who Will preside at the trial, will be
free the weeks Of July IA and July
2S. This is interpreted to suggest the
possibility that the trial will be post
poned to one Of those dates.
Reuben Arnold, the probability Of
whose participation in the Frank trial
was indicated by The American
three weeks ago, is at Atlantic Beach
and will not return to Atlanta until
Monday. II was said at his office.
however, that definite arrangements
for his becoming one of the counsel
for the defense had not as yet been
made.
Chief Lanford said that the great
sheaf of affidavlts procured by his
department had no use except to
guide the memory of his men in their
Investigations and to hold as a pro-
lection in the event of an emergency,
such as the sudden change In the
testimony OF witness or the disap-
pearance Of a witness from the juris-
diction Of the court.
Some question had arisen as to the
purpose Of the large number of Aft
davits when none of them would be
permitted to be introduced as evil
dence In the trial of Leo Frank, so
long as the affiant appeared to tes-
tify.
The chief explained that 1t had
been the design OF the department to
protect itself at all points, and sthat in
case a witness changed his testimony
on the stand it would be possible to
proceed against him on the charge of
perjury.
The affidavits also were obtained to
be used in the event that a witness
dies before the trial or leaves the
Jurisdiction OF the court.
Defense Also Has Many.
1t is known that the defense has in
its possession as many affidavits as
the prosecution. The attorneys for
Frank carefully have investigated
every story that has come to their
ears, and when 1t has appeared relia-
bic they have obtained the sworn
statement of the person telling of the
circumstances.
The main difference In the case of
the prosecution and that of the de-
Tense is that the contents of most of
the affidavits obtained by the detec-
tives are known to the public, while
the revelations made to the defense
have been most carefully guarded.
Luther 2. Rosser, attorney for
Frank, made one public statement,
but in II. he carefully avoided Civ
ing any hint that would aid the pros
ecution in determining who his wit
nesses were to be or what they would
testify.

FRESH APPEAL IS
MADE FOR AID
Of YANCEYS
New Misfortune Grips Dead
Deputy's FamiIy-Beneft
Dance Is Arranged,

Another appeal for contributions to
the fund for the family of Dave
Yancey. the brave officer of the law
who gave up his life while doing his
duty, has been sent out.
The plea comes from the widow and
six children of the deputy. 1t finds
impetus in more misfortune which
the family has suffered. Lois, the
l6-year- old daughter, who had re-
Gently been released from the hos
pital, has been sent back. suffering a
relapse precipitated by the shock OF
her fathers death. This means more
doctors bills and debt.
In a squirt of generosity, Atlanta
citizens subscribed $1,000 or there
abouts for the Yancey family. The
fund swelled with the flow of silver
coin Quickly, sufficient money was
raised to pay off the $500 mortgage
on the little Yancey farm that the
family might have a home of its
own.
Interest Is Tagging.
However. Atlantas interest in the
widow and children of YanCey is lag
cling. The flow of silver has almost
ceased The stricken family is threat
ened with having a home without
means of keeping it up or supporting
themselves.
There are thousands of persons in
Atlanta who have not given to this
worthy cause. Let them come for
ward with their quarters, half dol
lars and dollars and assure the fam
lily of Dave YanCey a bright future.
There will be a benefit dance at
the Owls Club next Friday night for
the Yancey fund. The affair has been
arranged by Deputies H. E. Latham
and n. A. Garner, and D. L. Good
lin, Jr., a clerk in the Solicitors Of
flee. Everyone should purchase a
ticket for this affair. All the money
will go towards aiding Dave Yancey's
family. The price of admission will
be rs cents each for men. Ladies will
be admitted free. The public is cor
daily invited. 1t is hoped that at
least $500 will be raised for the fund
by this means.
