CASE GIRLS
REVEAL ALL TOU. s.

With the arrival in Atlanta Friday
morning Of Elsie Elliott, 16 years old,
of Belwood, and Eunice Dease. Is
years old, of Hapeville, the young
girls whom J. l.. Denton, en- Atlanta
contractor, is charged with kdnap-
ing and taking to Birmingham last
Saturday, the official Federal investi-
cation of the white slavery charges
that it is proposed to bring against
Denton has begun in earnest.
The girls arrived in Atlanta short
ly before 7 o'clock Friday morning,
and were taken directly to the office
of L. j. Bailey, Special Agent of the
Department of Justice, in the Fed
eral Building.
The two girls told their stories
freely to Bailey and he will decide
later in the day whether the Govern
ment will prosecute Denton on white
slavery charges.
Girls Not Arrested.
Mr.. Bailey stated Friday morning
statement from each of the girls re-
garding their movements while in
Birmingham. and will in particular
try to learn whether Denton fur
nished the money for their transpor-
tation to the Alabama city.
Neither of the girls was placed
under arrest when they were located
in Birmingham Thursday afternoon.
A member Of Mr. Bailey's staff went
to the Alabama city to get them, with
full authority TO place them under ar
rest if they refused to return to At
lanta. He reported, however. that the
girls were willing and anxious to re-
turn and confront their alleged kid
naper. and there was no necessity of
arresting them. The agent Of the
Department of Justice made the trip
with them and escorted them to Mr.
Baileys office.
According to reports emanating
from Birm n-ham Yesterday both
girls accuse Dentoh Of inducing them
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-09-26

to make the trip, and of paying their
railroad fare. They declare that they
left Denton after he made improper
suggestions to them. 1t is expected
that they will reiterate their charges
under oath to Mr. Bailey this morn
ing, in which case the Government
will proceed at once with the prose-
cution of the contractor
Denton has been released from the
police station on bond of 5000, and
will answer to the kidnapping charges
tomorrow afternoon in Police Court.
He still maintains his innocence, and
declares he did not know the girls
were going to Birmingham until he
met them on the train. He declares
that the story the girls will tell will
exonerate him.

CLEW FOUND
IN $4,000
ROBBERY
MiIIedgeviIIe Woman Identifies
Handwriting in Taunts to the
SIeuths as Husbands.

With the handwriting of the man
who has been sending letters and tel
egrams to Pinkerton detectives and
officials of the Southern Express
Company boasting that he stole the
$4,000 recently taken from an ex-
press car during the run between
New York and Savannah, identified
by Mrs. E. L. Smith, of Milledgeville,
the officers to solve the mystery have
resolved into a country wide search
for Smith
1t was thought at first that the let
tiers, all of which chided the detec-
tives for their failure to solve the
mystery of the robber and contained
a cordial invitation to come and get
me-" were written by a patient in the
Milledgeville sanitarium.
Gave Himself Away,
Smith has sent his mysterious let
tiers and kilograms from different cit
les in the South, and although each
one was promptly and thoroughly in
vestigated, not until recently did the
detectives find clew to the identity
of the mysterious Smith"
A few days ago officials of the ex-
press company received a telegram
from Milledgeville, which changed the
aspect of the case. 1t read
81 am the man who got your money
Why don't you come and get me? My
wife lives in Milledgeville, and she
will tell you where can be found"
Three Pinkerton men who have
been working on the case went at
once to Milledgeville. Mrs. Smith
was located and unhesitatingly iden-
titled the handwriting as that of her
husband
Detectives declare the circum-
stances surrounding Smiths life in
Milledgevllle corroborate. their belief
that he is the robber, or at any rate
is indirectly connected with the theft.
Once Deserted Wife.
According to evidence found at Mil
ledgeville, Smith came to the Georgia
town from Worcester, Mass, about
sixteen months ago. He married a
Georgia girl last January, but short
ly afterward' ran away. He was ar
rested near West Lake, Ga, and
brought back to Milledgeville on a
charge of wife desertion.
He was released, and remained in
Milledgeville until June, when he de-
prated again. Nothing more was
heard from him until the express
company officials and detectives be-
gan receiving the mysterious letters.
The drag net of the Pinkertons and
of the special agents of the express
company has been thrown out all over
the South in the effort to apprehend
Smith.
Detectives are watching in all of
the cities from whence the kilograms
and letters have been sent, and the
officers are confident that Smith will
be taken soon.

1t requires % per cent of the regis

There were something over 10000

Legislation, however, can be mi

voters sent signed cards to Council
last spring demanding a vote on a
radical charter. Council turned deaf
ears to them. Now few more than
one-fifth of that number can call an
election on any sort of charter with
the same automatic precision that
they can call out the fire department
