JUMPED HIS BOND At LAST
TERM OF SUPERIOR COURT
OFFICER j.. S. GoODRREAD TRIES
TO LOCATE JOE AMOS IN
JACKSONVILLE,

Officer ]. S. Goodbread has return
ed from Jacksonville where he tried
to locate Joe Amos, a negro, who
jumped a $500 bond, upon whi-h a
rule nisi was taken at the last term
of the Superior court.
Amos was under arrest, upon a
felony charge, and his bondsmen, J.
h. Dubberly and r. b. Mccullough
have offered reward of 500 for his
apprehension as he must be produced
at the next term of the Superior
court or the bond will be forfeited.
Officer Goodbread used his vaca-
tion in an effort to apprehend Amos,
in Jacksonville, where he was said
to be working for H. l.. Watterson,
but the negro had 'evidently been
warned OF his coming and disappear
ed
1t was stated yesterday at the
rourt house that it is considered
doubtful if Amos could now be
convicted, of the charge hanging over
him, as most of the witnesses in
the case have also disappeared, and
that he is wanted mainly to save
his bondsmen the $500.

ATTORNEY ARNOLD FOR DE-
FENSE MAKES GREAT SPEECH
FOE FRANK.
ATTACK S C0NLEY'S TESTIMONY
Pointing to Frank, He Said, "They
Don't Kill, They Are Not a Violent
Race; Some of Them May be I'm
moral But They Go No Further"

Atlanta, Aug. 21-Attorney Reub n
Arnold, for the defense, concluded
his argument in the Frank case this
afternoon at $50 o'clock and court
then adjourned until Friday morning.
Attorney Rosser will take up his
the morning and he will probably
speak for three or four hours. He
will be followed by Solicitor Dorsey
for the state.
After the argument of the solicitor
Judge Roam will deliver his charge to
the jury and turn it over to them
for consideration. 1t is likely that
the case may go to the jury late to-
morrow afternoon.
Attacks ConIey's Testimony.
After tearing the testimony of Jim
Conley into shreds, Mrs Arnold made
the following dramatic utterance to
the jury:
why go further than this black
wretch there by the elevator shaft,
fired with liquor, fired with lust and
crazy for money Why, they rob
and ravish every day in the most
public and shocking way. But this
mans race, and pointing to Frank,
he said They don't kill, they are
not a violent race: some OF them
may be immoral, but they go no fur
ther than that. If there is anything
in the world, in evidence, then the
confessed writer of those notes is
the an that killed Mary Phagan.
The court room was crowded dur
ing the argument of Mr.. Arnold and
his statements were closely follow
ed by the spectators. The jurors
listened intensely as he went over
the evidence of the negro Conley,
simply tearing it to pieces and show
ing lie after lie which the negro
had told, on the stand and other
wise.

Washington, Aug. 21-American
troops for police duty in Mexico CT
protection of foreign lives and proper
ty and an emergency appropriation
OF $25,000,0O0 to be expended under
the direction of the President for that
purpose, were proposed in reso-
luton today by Senator Penrose. He
did not ask the senate to pass his
resolution today and it went oVar
A concentrated effort on the part of
the Republicans and Democrats to
support President Wilson in his Mex
lean policy and to carry to the world
the definite idea that the President
has the full support of the American
people at once became apparent In
PRODUCTION of the resolution was fol-
lowed by a general demand on the
part of ire Republicans, seconded by
Chairman Bacon of the foreign rela-
tions committee for a cessation of all
debate and to support President VIII
son.
Emphatic and concerted declara-
tions, from senators of both parties
of their confidence in the wis
dom and good faith of the President,
we've plainly an answer to reports
from Mexico, that President Huerta
was contending that President Wilson
had divided congress and a divided
public opinion behind him.
Republicans Are Emphatic.
Senators Lodge, Southerland, Gal
linger, Nelson, Smoot and other Re-
publicans joined in definite express
sion that the senate should give the
world no occasion to believe that
President Wilson did not have the
confidence and support of leaders of
both parties.
Nothing that could have occurred
said Senator Bacon, Democrat, could
have such emphatic denial to the con-
struction some Mexican officials ap-
pear to have put upon conditions
here, as the utterances that have
been made today on each side of the
chamber. l am willing this debate
should go to the world as tho an
swer to those suggestions"
Mentions Monroe Doctrine
The Penrose resolution draws at
tention to the Monroe Doctrine and
to the possibility that continued de-
struction of property in Mexico
would involve international complica-
tions and intervention by European
nations"

Sherbrooke, Juebec, Aug. 21.-After
an allnight conference, counsel for
Harry K. Thaw announced this morn
Ing that they would not produce the
Matteawan fugitive in the Superior
court today on the writ of habeas
corpus obtained yesterday.
They explained that the writ is re-
turnable at any time and that al
though 10 a. IN. had been tentative
~ agreed upon yesterday, they had
decided to delay proceedings pending
ther conferences. According to
present plans they will use the writ
tomorrow morning.
This marking OF time by the de-
Tense was due mainly to the arrival
last night OF Mr.. and Mrs. George
Lauder Carnegie, brother in law and
sister of the prisoner, who were
anxious that no steps be taken until
every bulwark Of defense had streng-
thened. J. d. Greenshields, of Mont
real, an eleventh hour addition to
the Thaw lawyers, pointed out that
the writ was returnable at the pleas
IRE OF counsel for Thaw and that it
"ould be best to go over his case
more thoroughly before coming into
court
Feverish and worried Thaw dress
ed before sun-up and received Mr. and
Mrs. Carnegie as his first visitors.
Though apparently cheered by their
arrival, their presence seemed to
make him more close-mouthed than
ever regarding his escape.
Thaw's fellow prisoner, who de-
scribes himself as Mitchell Thompson
but who has been identified by Con
ger and Hornbeck as Roger Thomp-
son driver of the black racing car,
which whisked Thaw away from the
asylum, remained silent in his cell
today
Charged with violating the Cana
dian immigration laws In assisting
lunatic across the border, Thompson
was unable to furnish the $500 bail
requested and must stay in the cell
until Friday when he will have
hearing.
Owing to the errors in the papers
committing Thaw to Jail he Is safe
there for an indefinite period as no
date for the hearing of his case was
mentioned in them. While in jail
Thaw Is also safe from the immigra-
tion departent which has no power
over him.
BY allowing the slayer of Sanford
White to remain In custody the de-
fense has offset the immigration au-
thorities who had been waiting with
confident expectations for Thaw's re-
lease from jail when they would have
bounced upon him and, it Is believed
ordered his deportation at once.
Thaw Of course, will resist being de
ported to the New York state line
as such move would entail his i'm
mediate reincarceration in Matteawan
Little Importance is attached by the
immigration department to the fact
that Thaw has through ticket to De-
troit which fact 1t has been claimed
by the defense would enable him to
proceed on his way out of Canada.
The fact that Thaw is Z. lunatic in
the eyes of the country from which
he came makes his entrance into the
Dominion illegal and gives the immi-
grafton authorities once they get
hold OF him, power to dctain him or
Immediately ship him back from
whence he came.
