Washington, Ga, April 27.-Henry
M. Thornton, to use his most recent
alias, who Is in jail here awaiting
indictment by the grand jury for
passing bad checks, has been sought
for than a year by the Burns
detective agency. He was traced to
this city by Detective O'Connell. AS
he was preparing to- victimize Repre-
sentative Howard for 5000, he was
trapped by Howard and H. N. Ran
dolph. s,.> o..
His most recent exploitiwas to. de-
fraud President Echols, of the Valley
National Bank, Staunton, Va, on a
forged letter written on the letter
head of a legal firm In Charleston,
s.. G. Thornton made a practice of
finding out the close friends OF his
intended victims and then framing
up a letter Of Introduction from
them. In 1904 he operated in Geor-
gia and Alabama. AS evidence of
his nerve, he secured $25 from Rep
resentative Howard that year on a
forged check and wrote a letter in
his office and on his stationery, with
which the latter defrauded j. How
ard Perdue, of Birmingham, Ala, for
$50, and Sayre & Sayre, Of Mont
gomery, for 500.
An official of the Lowry National
Bank Is expected to appear before
the grand jury here to testify to the

day. The first Of these was the TAX
ing into custody of Leo NJ. Frank,
president If the pencil factory. His
detainmelt was more in the nature
or an in y~eStigatiOn. After an hours
Interrogation he was released.
Circumstance has woven a strong
web Of suspicion around Cant. First,
his story OF having slept Saturday
and Sunday nights in the Linden
street home, and the contradiction
to detectives by his sister are dam
aging. He admits having visited the
factory building Saturday, but says
he went only to obtain a pair OF shoes
left in the place.
Cant is a former employee Of the
pencil plant. He was a book-keeper
connected with the office force. Ad-
hitting that he was an intimate ac-
quaintance OF the slain girl, he de-
clares, however, that he had not seen
her since he left the concern.
Say Negro Wrote the Notes.
Three handwriting experts who
Tuesday compared the notes found
near the girls body in the factory
basement with notes written by Lee
after his arrest, at the instigation of
~'1J NSSSSti oi0 pOolIlN6 Ildl
the same hand penned them all.
The experts made a microscopic
examination of these notes and are
unanimous in declaring that the same
person was the author of them all.
Only one question now puzzles the
detectives-did Lee murder the girl
himself or did he undertake to dis
pose Of the girls body and to shield
some one else2
Cant Transferred to Jail.
Judge George l.. Bell Tuesday af-
ternoon ordered J. M. CANT, charged
with murder in connection with the
death OF Mary Phagan, turned over
to the sheriff. Giants attorney ar
gued In habeas corpus proceedings
before Judge Bell that Cant was be-
ing subjected to the third degree by
the city detectives and police and
that they had no authority to hold
Cant In police station on a State war;
rant. Judge Bell then ordered Cant
turned over to the sheriff and trans-
ferred to the tower. Judge Gober,. a
relative of the accused, who has been
retained as Giants counsel, said this
was perfectly satisfactory to him.
