more hopeful. but at nightfall one of
the terrible commissions contorted her
little body and it was thought that
the end had come Monday morning
she was the victim of another, and
the family practically gave up hope.

Mary was given the crayons a few
days before school ended a week ago

At the police station Conley was
waiting in the reception room.
As soon as the Slower girl entered
the room he jumped to his feet. ex-
claiming:
That's her; that's her" Then the
negro surveyed her wearing apparel.
She's dressed just as she was that
day, only she hasn't got on her easy
walkers
The girl was wearing leather slip
pers. Later she said she had worn
easy walkers" or tennis shoes, when
she went to the pencil factory, as the
negro had said.
The negro's identification Of the
Slower girl proves. apparently, beyond
a doubt that he was in the factory
building at the time he said in his
affidavit. Beyond sustaining that
statement, though, no further support
to the prosecutions case against
Frank is shown by IT,
Solicitor Dorsey returned to At
lanta Sunday afternoon from a weeks
vacation in New York. He called a
conference with his assistants, E. A
Stephens and f. A. Hooper, at his
home Sunday evening. Following it
he announced that he would be ready
for trial on June 80 and that unless
the defense or the trial Judge moved
to have the trial postponed he would
commence at once summoning wit
nesses and getting ready.
Solicitor Dorsey would not discuss
the return to Atlanta of Mrs Nina
Formby and her announcement that
she would go on the stand against
Frank. He minated, however, that
he entertained the same opinion as
had already been expressed by his as
sistant, Mr.. Hooper, that when the
woman left Atlanta she dropped from
the case entirely.
Attorney John w. Moore denied EN-
phatically that he had been employed
in the case with L. u. Rosser and
Reuben r. Arnold TO defend Frank
as was reported by Solicitor Dorsey.

II have not been employed in the
case and have no other interest in
It than that of a citizen. l believe

SOFIA, June 23.-Bulgaria to-day
withdrew ito recent acceptance Of
Gar Nicholas proposal to arbitrate
the territorial dispute between this
country on one side and Servia and
Greece on the other. This may mean
that Russia's attempt to prevent
fresh conflict in the Balkans will
prove futile.
The Bulgarian press is bitterly hos
tile against Russia. charging that the
Russian Government is secretly en-
couraging Servia and Greece to take
aggressive measures.
Official newspapers declare that
Servia, Greece and Montenegro have
entered into a secret league to strip
Bulgaria Of all the possible spells OF
the Balkan war The situation to-
day was decidedly ominous. and the
impression prevailed that the climax
would be reached this week.
