up by Frank,
In addition to this, it will be
shown that Conley was in the
factory at the time he himself
SAYS Frank committed the muir
der, and for a long time before.
The defense will try TO show
that Conley had ample Oppor-
tunity to accomplish the muir
der, and that every circumstance
of it shows that he did do so.
Say conley Broke Staple.
It will be eohtended that the muir
der was eetfcted on the first floor.
and that after il was performed the
girls body was thrown down the
open elevator shaft where soon after
Il was followed by Conley, who then
hid II in the rear.
Conley III be held TO be the party
who drew the staple from the back
door and thereby made his escape
from the building, either by way Of
Madison Avenue or Forsyth Street
The missing purse that Mary Ph1-
gan is known 70 have had In her
hand when she left home. and n
which she Is supposed TO have put her
money just received from Frank, has
never been found. although Conley
has been careful enough to account
for her hat and her shoe.
Undoubtedly. the deefnse has been
very busy. while the States officers
have been talking.
Reticent and silent as the grave as
TO the theory Of the crime to be
advanced IN defense Of Frank. it now
is known that il will be sweeping,
sensational and complete.
State Faces Strong Defense.
Whether II will come as a tremen-
dous surprise 20 the prosecution. or
whether something Of the magnitude
and scope OF it has leaked through 10
the Solicitor and the police within the
past "a hours. is probIematical
The sudden clamping down Of the
lid at detective headquarters and the
announcement that no more talking
would be done there. either for the
state or anybody else is viewed by
many as a circumstance tending 10
show that the State al least has come
10 a full. realization Of the fact thai
Franks defense will be thorough ana
complete In detail
Whereas up TO yesterday any sort
Of an interview might be had for the
asking Of the detective, to-day moth
ing whatever may be had.
As silent as the defense has been, il
has nothing by way Of silence on the
State TO-DAY.
Franks Character.
Franks previous good character,
his hne business reputation, his hap
py family relations, his ordinary hao-
It's Of life and his everyday methods
OF conducting himself will be thrown
fearlessly into the scales.
Il has been determined for him 10
leave nothing unsaid and 10 leave
rothing undone that may tend 10 clear
fully and completely and 70 free him
for all time from responsibility for
this crime or any knowledge Of it,
Besides the technical correctness Of
Franks defense, his lawyers will IN
dertake 10 show how impossible il
would have been for him 10 have
done what the negro accuses him OF,
under the negro's own statement.

To Attack ConIey.

His general character will be put in
evidence. his drinking habits estab-
ushed. and his opportunity to have
killed Mary Phagan completely dem
onstrated.
Attorney Rosser is known, despite
his silence, to have determined not
only upon Franks complete acquittal,
but upon Conley's future conviction
The foregoing IN brief outline, Is
the defense Of Leo FranH now being
framed up in surprising detail
II the defense can establish what It
now unquestionably hopes 10 and be-
lieves il may. Franks acquittaI seems
a toregone conclusion
OF course, the State still is stand
ing pat on its theory that Frank
committed the crime, but undoubtedly
is more OF less disturbed BY the sur
prising nature Of the defense that has
leaked out even TO the extent indi-
Gated. and is preparing 70 meet that
defense accordingly.

 of Him While Away

Unaware that during his absence he hhd been made a captain of the Phoenix fire department and that the common council had tackled ten dol lars q month extra on to his salary without giving him a chance to de- fend himself, Billy Simmons returned yesterday morning from a hunting trip of a month and a day.

 The party left Phoenix on Septem- Der 14, travelling in d regular noun tain wagon with tents and plenty Of provisions. There Were guns in the party too, for it was expected that several bear and no end of deer would be brought down before the party again gazed on the bright lights of Phoenix.

Stoneman's lake. natural bridge and Roosevelt dam In all that time they killed some doves, a rabbit or two but they never saw sign of hide or hair of a deer, bear or other big game
 None of the men shaved from the day they started until they returned and their best friends couldn't recog- nize them as they driv' up yesterday. But they are all feeling the better fer the trip and are glad they went And most important of all, that little fcur-year-old member of the BeIlas family that also went along came very near being overlooked And despite the fact that snow and sleet Was encountered in the northern end or the trip the little one returned just as bright and healthy as any fond parent could wish.

 Fire in Cardiff Mine.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DESPATCH

CARDIFF, oct. 15.-All hope of res ching more of the miners entOmbed in the Universal cOlliery. where the ex plosion occurred yesterday, has prac- tically been abandoned. A report that a party of tWentY-nine had been found alive in one of the galleries proved an error, but a large number of bodies were encountered today. No offical reports were issued and this caused much comment. Fire broke out anew this afternoon and is still raging. There are no further signs of fife in the pit.
 Up to a late hour tonight 49 bodies have been recovered, while 36S miners are still missing The shift that went into the mine yesterday numbered 931. Enginers have decided to devote efforts to subduing the fire, as they be- lieve it useless to persist in an at tempt at rescue.

ADVOCATE LOWER RATES
 OF INTEREST 10 PEOPLE
important Changes Proposed for the
 Administration Currency Bill.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl


 WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-Changes of the currency bill that would give lower interest rates to the people of the newer states of the west were advocated in the senate banking and currency committee today. Senator Hitchcock, democrat, and Weeks, re publican, insisted that all sections of the country should enjoy the same rates of re-discount under the federal reserve bank plan. They conceded that such a system would undoubt- edIy bring down interest rates in the western states where money is now earning high rates.
 William H. Bucholz of the Omaha National bank, N. F. BanfieId of the First National bank of Austin, Minn.. William Ingle of the Merchants and Mechanics bank of Baltimore, and Senator Thomas of Colorado were before the committee at today's hear ing.
 MT. BuchoIz declared many of the bankers of Nebraska opposed the ad- ministration bill as it now stands, and that many national banks in that state were preparing to resign their charters and become state banks, un- less some of the desired changes were made in the pending bill
 A plan to issue government bonds that will be exchangeable at all times for a special form of currency was presented to the committee by Sen ator Thomas. Some members of the committee expressed the opinion that such a plan would automatically reg ulate the volume of circulating cur rency.
 MT. Banfield, representing country bankers urged the committee to change the bill so that farm mort gages running five years could be taken by banks as security for loans. The bill now limits such mortgages to one year and the amount of such loans to 9 per cent of a banks capital and surplus.

 The association is working in close cooperation with the fair and Super intendent Finch of the poultry depart ment to make the coming show great success.

 the return trip. In which event, hoo ray. Long will the first Howdy be remembered The band. the boosters and the jolly noise made a real ard lasting impression in Phoenix.
 Why not see it the other way quoth Big George Hageman last night,
 when talking over the Phoenix special

 can raise the roof over in Los with our

 all things Phoenix has euaued Los

LASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH
 SAN MATED, Cal, Oct. 15-In a thrilling man hunt tonight, a Greek labOrer, believed to be Joseph Adamo, who stabbed and probably fatally wounded another Greek, was brought to bay in a hundred acre brush patch and surrounded. Although wounded, Adamo was armed and awaiting the last encounter. Immediately after the stabbing Adamo boarded an in- terurban car going to San Francisco. Chief of Police AIdon McComb gave chase in an automobile. Alamo wit messed the chase from the rear of the car and when the car approached a bridge. jumped off and fired three shots at the pursuing officer.
 McCOmb returned the fire and one bullet found it's mark, when Adamo fell to the ground. He crawled but a few feet and was lost. Chief Me Comb halted the interurban car and the one following it and ordered the powerful searchlights removed and trained them on the brush patch. Passing automobilists joined in the man hunt and in a short time fifty machines had surrounded Adamo's hiding place.
