BURNS TRIP
TO NORTH
Detective and Frank Attorney Go
to New York on Secret
Phase Of Case.

The mysterious New York phase
OF the Frank case is taking Detective
William j. Burns and Leonard Haas,
of Franks counsel, to that city Mon
day, and neither the detective nor the
attorney will say previsely what it is
that demands their investigation
there.
1t is understood that the business is
the same that recently attracted the
attention of Luther Rosser and Her
bert Haas, but that doesn't help to
clear up the situation.
One report is that the detective Is
going to see W. NJ. Osborn, the hand
writing expert, who was connected in
some mysterious way with the early
part Of the States investigation oft he
murder of Mary Phagan. Another re-
port is to the effect that Burns is go
ing to see Nina Formby and Fl. r.
Becker. the former with reference to
the alleged frame-up which the Frank
defense has been seeking to fasten on
the detective department and the lat
ter in connection with the order
blanks on which the murder note was
written, one of which seems to bear
the carbon tracery of Becker's name,
indicating that the blank was an old
duplicate OF an order issued not later
than 1909.
Formby Woman Police Aeeuser.
The Formyb woman is the strong
est accuser the defense has secured in
its attack on the police department.
Her affidavit charges that Detectives
w. A. Chewing and j. II. Norris
coerced her into swearing to false
and scandalous story concerning Leo
Frank. The same detectives also have
been accused in other afiidavits %
tanned by the defense.
1t is said that the evidence Burns
expects to obtain while in New York
will be the strongest arguments the
defense will have in presenting to
Judge Hill the extraordinary motion
for a new trial.
Immediately upon completing his
inquiry in New York, Burns will re-
turn to Atlanta to resume his inves-
tigation here Before leaving the ia
nous detective declined to make any
predictions, either upon the ultimate
outcome of his work or concerning
the length of time it would be before
he had reached a definite stage.
At the Burns headquarters Monday
morning it was reported that Dan
Lehon, OF New Orleans, head Of Burns
agencies in the South and one OF
Burns most trusted aides, was ex-
pected here in the course of the day.

Sir Edward Carson to Lead the
Forces in Person-To Let
Crown Fire First Shot.
BY FREDERICK LESTER,
Staff Correspondent.

N BELFAST, March 2S.-After there
was a lessening of military activity
in and around Ulster Province to-
day on the part of the crown forces,
agents of Sir Edward Carson, chief
leader of the nti-Home Rule forces,
were vigorously securing the province
rallying the Ulster volunteers to the
Unionist colors.
There was some relaxation OF the
tension, but it was admitted that the
menace of civil war in Ireland over
the home rule question is still as
threatening as II was As hours ago.
At the military posts of the Prot
estant forces guns, uniforms and am
munition were dealt out to the Car
son volunteers, while retired army
officers who have cast their lot with
the Ulster forces drilled the men and
instructed them in the tactics OF war.
Ready for Battle.
Scores Of agents reported to Sir
Edward Carson. Ulster leader, during
the day Aides who had spent the
last "A hours riding through the prov
ince in automobiles comforting with
the Unionist captains declared that
all is now in readiness. II the Crown
forces fire the first shot, the Ulster
army is ready to launch its strength
against the thousands of British
troops in the province and on the
southern borders at moments mo-
tice.
Sir Edward has notified his follow
ers that he is prepared to take the
field in person at the head of his
troops If fighting begins. All Ulster
men have been solemnly warned,
however, that the aggressive must be
taken by the Government forces.
The streets Of this city were filed
with armed men to-day. From hum
dreds OF houses the Union Jack was
flung and in the Unionist headqusr-
tiers an armed guard was drawn up in
front and sentries patrolled adjacent
streets.
Opp osina Soldiers Friendly.
An unusual circumstance attending
the situation is the cordlality exist
ing between the volunteers and the
regulars who were sent here TO sub
due any uprising. On many occa-
sions the Ulster men and the British
soldiers In passing each other have
saluted. Evidence Of friendship has
given the army officers cause to gus
pect that hundreds of the soldiers
sent into Ulster would refuse to fight
against the Unionists.
