THE BANDIT BAND
HAS VANISHED
No Trace Of Men Who Dynamited and
Robbed Bank at
Fulton.

JTexarkana, Oct. 4.-No trace has
been found today of the six men who
robbed the Bank of Fulton early yes
terday morning. They seemed to have
vanished completely. Bloodhounds
followed the trail but short dis
lance, then lost the scent.
Officers are still securing the
woods, however, in search of traces Of
the men. Many rumors are received
here, but none authentic.
The general belief is that, though
the robbers walked out of Fulton, go
ing north along the railroad tracks.
they entered waiting automobile at
some point not far distant from the
city, skirted around Fulton and came
south towards Texarkana for report
was received that six men riding in
an automobile were seen in the vicin-
ity of Clear Lake, just few miles from
this city, about o'clock Friday morn
ing. The bank robbers, if they were
in an automobile, would have just
about had time to get this far by that
hour.
Though the officials of the bank re-
fuse to state what amount was left in
the small inner vault, of the safe, the
belief is entertained there might have
been as much as $4,000, for the rea-
son that much cotton has been mar
keted in Fulton the past few days,
the money passing through the Bank
of Fulton, and many are of the belief
large sums were contained in the
small vault.

CONDEMNED TO DIE
ATTENDS TO BUSINESS
LEO W. FRANK, OF ATLANTA,
SURE THAT HE WILL YET
PROVE INNOCENCE.
Gets Stay Of Execution and Case
Will BE Delayed For Months.

AtlaNta, Oct. 4.-Leo. M. Frank,
for the murder of Mary Phagan, does
not expect to die on that day. He
has just accepted the presidency OF the
local organization of the Bnai
Birth tor another year. Also he con-
tinues to manage il Jail the affairs
of the National Pencil Company, of
which he was uperientendent and at
whose plant the girl was killed.
Frank is certain he will not be hang
ed on October 10 because the motion
for new trial will not be heard until
October 4, and if the decision is ad-
verse the case will be carried to the
Supreme Court. 1t may be a year
before his fate is definitely determine
ed.
His wife has visited him daily since
the end of the trial and has assisted
him in going over the mass of testi-
mony. When at the trial Solicitor
Dorsey declared she had never gone
to the police station to see him and
cited the fact to the jury as an in
dication that she knew Frank was
guilty she leaned forward in an ex-
cited protest, but under the law she
could not testify. She is determined
in the event of new trial-and she
is confident one is coming-to in
some way show that she never for a
moment doubted her husbands in
nocence.
Mrs. Rae Frank, his mother, joined
in the Jail conferences for while
but finally she was obliged to return
to Brooklyn, where her aged husband
is critically i'll. She expects to re-
turn when argument is made for a
new trial before Judge Roam.
Mlieitor Dorsey is directing the
work of detectives who are trying to
/, find new evidence to strengthen the
case of the State should a new trial
be ordered.

CAMINETTI TRIAL ON;
 SURE OF ACQUITTAL
Must Choose Between Women
 and Face Jury.

The trial of F. Drew Camineti on a charge of violating the Mann white slave law began at San Francisco. Although the trial of Dtggs resulted in a conviction, both Caminetd and bis lawyers are quite confident that he will be acquitted. They base great deal of their confidence on the fact that the Norris girl has shown dispo- sition to stand by him.
 Lola Norris has been told that Cami- netti has promised that she will be taken care of no matter what happens and that he will protect her in the trial. This has affected her so that she has declared she will stand by him.
 AS Lola Norris is the principal state witness against him, 1t is believed that if she stands by him it will almost be impossible for the state to convict him. Caminetti is In a quandary, however. If he shows any partiality toward the Norris girl his wife will turn against him, and if he shows that he and his wife have made up the Norris girl will turn against him.
