Washington, Oct 22.--Further ad-
the president and Secretary Bryan
can hope for no more support, moral
or otherwise. from Great Britain in
their Mexican policy. The important
indications are that the United States
soon will be more than ever isolated
in her attitude toward Mexico.
A more detailed account of the in
tervieW between Ambassador Page
and Sir Edward Grey, British minister
of foreign affairs, has reached Wash
ington This interview determined
according to information reaching
here that the only point regarding
Mexico. on which the governments of
Great Britain and the United States
are in entire agreement. are the de-
sire that peace shall return to Mexi-
CO. On the immediate questions of
policy in regard to Mexico the two
governments take opposite stands.
Huerta Only Way to Peace.
Sir Edward told Mr.. Page that his
majesty's government considers that
its course of recognition of the Huerta
government is the only proper course
for it to take in view of its desire
for the restoration of peace in Mexi-
CO. 1t was added, however, that no
affront to the United States was in
tended in anything that Sir Lionel
Garden, British minister to Mexico
had done in Mexico City.
News of the negative results of Am
bassador Pages attempt to sound out
the British government and gain sup
port abroad for the Wilson policy In
Mexico was regarded here as of a
most significant character, The pre-
diction was made that from now on
Great Britain will be found leading all
the powers of Europe interested in
Mexico in the matter Of their policy
toward that country. The interests
of France, Germany, Spain and other
countries are almost identical with
those of Great Britain.

Conley Carried to Carter
Street and Electric Ayenue

Jim Conley was carried awav
from police headquarters in Chief
Beavers automobile about 11:3O
o'clock Monday morning by Detec-
tive Starnes and Campbell, who are
working directly under the solicitor
general.
The negro was returned to his cell
within half an hour.
The explanation of the trip given
by Chief of Detectives Newport A.
Lanford was that Conley was carried
to the corner of Electric avenue and
Carter street in order that all of the
residents there might see him, and.
if possible, identify him as a man
seen in dispute with a. white man
about the day of the Phagan murder.
He was not identified.

seen fit to add to his announcement
the statement about anonymous COM
munications also remains unexpIain-
ed. It has been known that the Pha-
gan mystery from the first has cali
ed forth many anonymous letters.
The city detectives, the counsel for
the defense, the solicitor, the past
and the present grand juries have
been flooded with them.
The solicitors statement might
lead to the inference THAT the pub
lie sentiment" which worked on the
grand jurors until they called the
meeting, was of the anonymous COM
munication sort.
Made Long Speech.
From the length of time during
which the solicitor was before the
grand jury it is apparent that it was
not without difficulty that he per
suaded the members of the body to
let the Conley matter alone until af-
ter the Frank trial
1t Is reported that the solicitor
quoted many laws to the grand jury
to strengthen his position in the mat
ter, and an interesting decision on
the point involved which appears in
the 1O2 Georgia reports, page 2T1,
was quoted in full.
Dealing with the case of Hix
against Brantley, the supreme court
in this decision says: "He (the so.
licitor generaD is to determine
whether or not to commence a par.
ticular prosecution or to discontinue
one already begun. The solicitor
general draws the bill of indict
ment, and examines the witnesses
not with a view to the interest o.
any client, but alone to subserve tn
public jusice. The whole proceeding
from the time of the case is laid be
fore him, is under his direction, sup
ervision and control"
No other meeting of the gram
jury has been called and it is proba
bic that none will be until after Jul
%, when the case against Frank j
set for trial.
Drawing of Jury
The solicitor generals next fgh
in the famous murder case will com
next Thursday, when he will oppos
the motion for the defense of Fran
that the veniremen, from whom tn
twelve jurors to try Frank will b
chosen, be drawn from the grand j,
ry list instead of from the petit jur
list. The Fulton county grand jun
list contains Approximately 100
names, while the petit jury list hs
more than 5000 names on it.
The solicitor has made it know
that he will vigorously oppose tt
motion. The drawing of the venir
men from the grand jury list wou
be unusual and there is no instan,
of it ever having been done in tn
country, it is said. AS yet, howeve
no law against the move has bet
advanced.

Tuesdays Atlanta JournaD


Solicitor General Hugh NJ. Dorsey
has for a second time blocked an at
tempt by members of the grand jury
to indict James Conley, the negro
sweeper, who confessed completely in
the Mary Phagan murder.
The grand jurymen who had called
a meeting over the protest of the so.
licltor to consider taking up bill
against the negro listened to the
prosecuting official for more than an
hour Monday morning, and then au-
thorized him to announce that the
matter will not be taken up at this
time.
Dorsey Makes Statemtnt.
The solicitor wrote out his state
ment, which is as follows:
Il am authorized by the grand jury
to say, first that no action will be
taken at this time on the James Con-
ley matter; second, that the grand
jury Will not pay any attention what
ever to anonymous communications. ("
The solicitor would not explain or
amplify the statement in any way.
but it is naturally supposed that the
grand jury has decided not to take
up the ConIey matter until after the
trial of Leo NJ. Frank, giving the
solicitor clear victory
A Quorum Present.
There were eighteen members of
the grand jury, a quorum, present
when the meeting was called to- order
by Foreman w. d. Beatie, The solic-
itor was asked to remain in the room,
when the meeting opened, and he did
not leave it until the meeting ad-
Journed more than one hour later,
and the presumption is natural that
he took part in the discussion of the
case.
The solicitor had previously an
nounced his position in the matter,
declaring that the Indictment of Con-
ley at this time would be serious
mistake, and saying that it would
have "a mild but undesirabTe'' effect
on the states case against \aN

practically the entire load enter

shot completely off and shots
took effect in other parts of the
body. She lived sometime after
the shooting, and made the state
ment that her brother put the
shell in the gun, although it is

she was mistaken and that they
were both playing with the wea-
pom at the time the boy discharg-
ed it. The negroes live on Mr..

Another Edison triumph, the
wonderful Talking Pictures will

locally at the Grand Oct. Goth

Torrance of these truly marvel
GUS pictures one forgets that it
is only picture speaking, really
not even a picture, but a thing
of light and shodows, more un-
stable than water and less ma
terial than air. When it is all
over one feels that he has been
in another world. Skepticism
gives way to amazement and
then to enthusiastic pleasure, the
illusion being so perfect that the
performers in the pictures them
selves are very frequently ap-
plauded.
