 Conley Chief Witness
 The chief witness against Frank was James Conley, a negro factory sweep CT. He was convicted as an accessory after the murder and sentenced to one years Imprisonment. According to his testimony, Frank killed the factory girl on the second floor of the National Pencil companys plant and then sum moned him to aid in the disposal of the body which was found in the fac tory basement on the morning of April 27, 1913.
 Frank was convicted on the first ballot of the jury on August ,. He originally was sentenced to hang on october 10, but before that date a motion for a ne wtrial was filed in the superior court It was denied and an appeal was taken to the state su- preme court. On February IT of this year the supreme court affirmed the verdict of guilty and later denied a motion for new trial was filed in Hill of the superior court then resen-
 
 IT. Friends of the convicted factory superintendent then renewed efforts to definitely establish whether Frank was innocent or guilty and a complete and exhaustive investigation of all possible sources of information con corning the crime was commenced
 No matter what Is the nature of the report made by Detective Burns, Frank will not be hanged on April IT, ac- cording to the defense. The eXtraordi nary motion for a new trial is not to be filed until the day before the exc cution date. In case it was immediate ly overruled, it is announced that the case will again be taken to the state supreme court on the ground of newly discovered evidence. The convicted man Is prominent here He was the head of the local branch of the order of B'Nai B'Rith when first accused of the murder of his girl employe and after he was convicted the organization again reelected him as an expression of its high regard.

Republicans See Political Profit

Republicans, however. see great polit- ica1 profit to them rising out of the strug- gle over the repeal of tolls. Whether there is a split or not the consensus of republican opinion is that the country will repudiate the party in power If it puts through the measure. On the issue the republicans are almost united. Roose- welt and Taft both favored exemption. Root and Lodge in the Senate are the most notable republican advocates of re- peal. The real leaders of both wings of the republican party stand for eXemp- ton, and without any doubt the question Is to become the real big issue in the coming elections for the House and Sem ate this year. and will also be featured in the presidential contest in 1916.
 If the President is successful in driving repeal through the Senate 1t is believed here that this will end the question so far the democratic party is concerned. The party will be committed to the policy of tolls for American as well as the ves- sells of other nations irrevocably and if Wilson wins the nomination in 1916 that plank in the Baltimore platform will be officially cast overheard for good

SENATORS REVOLT
 AGAINST SECRECY
tCon.inued from Page one)

commerce committee, Putnam and Will Hams had consented tc postponement of a vote yesterday when victory apparently was in sight, to allow democratic sena- tors to talk with the President about withdrawing MT. Daniels name after the nomination had been recommitted. They denounced the determination of democratic leaders after a visit to the White House to force a vote on confirmation little short of bad faith. The vote resulted as follows:
 How They Voted
 For confirmation: Brandegee, Bryan Dullingham Fall, Gallinger, Gore, Hughes. James, Johnson, Lee of Maryland, Lewis, Llppit Lodge. Mclean, Martin, Myers, Newlands. Oliver Overman, Owen, Page, Perkins. Pittman. Pomerene Ransdell, Shafroth sheppard, Simmons Smith of Georgia Smith of Maryland. Swanson Tillman. Townsend, Warren, Weeks and Williams.
 Against confirmation Ashurst. Borah Bristow, Burton, Catron. Chamberlain Clapp, Crawford, cummins, Gronna, Hitchcock, Hollis, Jones. Kenyon. La Folette, Lane, Lea of Tennessee Norris, O'Gorman, Poindexter, Smith of Michi- gan, Shoot Sterling, Thompson. Varda- man, Walsh and Works
 The Senate voted down a motion to re- move the pledge of secrecy, as to the session and imm sdiately began considera- tion of another nomination behind closed doors.
 Discussing the matter after adjourn ment. Senator LaFollette said: "I told the Senate 1 considered it mistake to l have considered the nomination >behind closed doors, as I so regarded the con slderation behind closed doors of ali mat ters connection with the legislation. l regarded this nomination as connected with legislation because the committee construes the legislation we pass served notice that if there was a rule of the Senate which prevented me from discussing the matter publicly, could no longer feel myself bound to observe it and was ready to take the consequences of my act'
 Great Public Danger Senator Clapp said that executive ses' sions except to consider matters of great public danger were certain to be abolished 1 before long.
 Tn great crisis there would be na trouble in keeping the proceedings secret" " he added, but in matters such as nomi- nations the public is entitled to know what goes on, and the public will know if

Hard to Realize MAGNITUDE.

London, June 1.-The full magni.
tude of the disaster to the Empress of
Ireland is just being understood by
the English public. The calamity did
not come home to Londoners nearly
as acutely as the loss of the Titanic,
because comparatively few we'll known
or prominent English people were
among the passengers. Sir Henry Sc.
ton-Karr and Laurence Irving were
the only persons aboard whose names
were well known here. Most of the
other English passengers in the first
cabin were business men from provin.
cial cities.

SAFETY At SEA TREATY UP
CONGRESS IS STIRRED TO AC.
TON BY TRAGEDY.
Senate Committee to Recommend
Measure Wednesday-Might Have
Averted Disaster.

Washington, June 1.-The sinking
Of the steamer Empress OF ireland and
the appalling loss of life in the catas.
trophe has stirred administration OF.
ticialS to activity and aroused com.
ment in congressional circles.
THE hull of the Empress of Ire.
land must have been a mere shell for
the ship to have gone down in 10
minutes" said Senator Burton. who
was n of the American delegates to
the London convention which recently
drafted a treaty for safety at sea.
The senator expressed the opinion
that if the treaty had been in effect.
the hulls classification clause prob
ably would have compelled the own.
ers OF the Empress to reconstruct her.
The treaty would not make COM
pulsory the remodeling of the existing
vessels SO as to provide for separate
watertight bulkheads," he explained,
but the publicity about the condition
OF those ships would cause the public
not to p%atronize the dangerously con
structed vessels"
Senator Lewis, who also was a dele,
gate to the convention, declared the
great loss of life on the Empress of
Ireland would not have occurred had
the safety treaty been in force.
This treaty is still before a senate
foreign relations subcommittee. but
may be reported favorably to the full
committee Wednesday.
Secretary Redfield asked congress
for an appropriation of $4,000 for ex-
ira inspectors to enforce laws pre-
venting O~vercrowding of
and excursion vessels.
Mr.. Redfield suggested to the cabi.
net the ACCESSIBILITY of a law making
it a criminal offense for a CAPTAIN to
operate his steamer at full speed in a
fog.
