GIRL DIED IN
FACTORY
OFFICE

ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. s.
Placed on the witness stand again
this morning for cross-examina-
ton, James Conley, a negro for
merly employed as janitor at the
factory of Leo M. Frank, who Is
on trial for murder of Mary
Phagan, held steadfastly to his
sensational story. He had been
kept in solitary confinement all
night, even the guards having or
ders not to talk to him.
Conley repeated in detail his
testimony. He said that his en-
ployer was accustomed to have
women call at his office. He
locked the women in, the negro
said. At such a time, Conley tes-
titled, Frank would stamp on the
floor as signal for the janitor
to maintain guard at the outer
door.
The young girl went to Frank &
Office for WORK. There were
, screams, and later Frank ordered
the negro to help dump her body
on the garbage heap. The negro
declared his employer to be a
degenerate.
Conley held to his story stead
fastly throughout a grilling cross
examination. His powerful testi-
mony is believed to have already
slipped the moose about Frank e
neck.

The assault would probably have
ended in murder, according to
the police, had it not been for
the nine-year-old daughter of the
Huxtables. who was awakened by

ed for help. Patrolman Stratton,
living q few doors away, was
