New York's Mayor Says Complete
Suppression of Vice Is
Impossible.
PLANS ATTACK FROM ALL SIDES

New York. March 12-Mayor Mitchell
declared tonight that absolute suppress
sion of the social evil in New York is
impossible, lowing TO existing economic
and social conditions" He said:
Gambling, I believe, can be stamped
out. and am working to that end. How
ever. with the social evil We face a diff
ferent problem. Up to certain point 1t
can be suppressed, but beyond that point
no one has yet devised a plan which will
successfully cope with the problem.
I'VE have evolved plan, which is not a
crusade, but We are going to drive the
women or the streets: then out of the
tenement districts, and then out OF the
residential districts. Then our problem
will be with the commercial houses and
Raines law hotels.
THE small gamblers have been driven
out of the hotels and apartment houses,
where they have, taken refuge"

DEADLOCK REACHED IN

ACTION BY KING Is POSSIBLE

London. March IA deadlock has
developed in the negotiations over the
question Of excluding Ulster province
from the operations of the home rule

iterated today that the government had
gone the limit in making concessions
to the anti-home rulers of>Clster. but
on the other hand the die hards"
among the Unionists declared that the
proposals cannot be accepted because
of the clause limiting exclusion to six
years. ..
Sir Edward Carson. one of the fore
most Unionist leaders in Ulster, Is
adopting a moderate course and his
counsels may prevail although the sit
uation is one that is giving the minis
try the utmost anxiety. The home rule
bill will be up for second reading in
the House of Commons on March 30.
As the situation grows more tense the
possibility increases that King George
may have to act.
Further conferences were held today
by political leaders outside Of the cabi-
net and members of the ministry. 1t
was admitted that no progress was
made. but that the conferees were
careful to point out they believed a So
luton, upon the basis of the Asquith
proposals, probably would be reached.

JUROR FAV0RS RETRIAL

Atlanta, March l2.--New evidence was
obtained today by Leo N. Franks at
torneys to sustain the charge that the
defendant was convicted ON evidence that
lad been framed" by city detective
and other members OF the police depart
mcnt.
The evidence was given by w. S. Jen-
kins and his wife and related to alleged
attempts Of the detective to secure raise
testimony against Frank from their
daughter, Mrs Lula Belle Brown
Mrs. Brown has been married since the
Frank trial and now lives in Milledgevile.
Last spring she was sixteen years OLD,
unmarried and living with her parents
About a month after Frank was ar
rested, the Jenkinses state, the detecuve
came to their home and asked TO see
Lula Belle.
You are the girl who went with Mary
Phagan to the factory the day she was
killed, aren't you?" the detective Is saio
TO have asked.
The girl denied this. and after more
questions the detective went away.
AIIege Bribe oGer.
The detective and other officers re-
turned and one of them, according 10
Mrs Jenkins, offer-d Lula Belle large
sum IL she would swear she was the sri
in the red dress" who was supposed 10
have gone to the factory with Mary Pha-
gan and to have been told by FRANK lhat
she need not wait for Mary.
The declaration of Jim Conley, con-
victed as an accomplice in the murder,
that he is perfectly willing to see De-
tective William ]. Burns and answer
every question put to him, was an un-
expected development. Conley supulates
onIy that some other white man, not
friend of Frank, be present at the inter-
view.
The negro's attorney. William NJ Smith.
it is thought, may attempt to prevent
an interview.
sI don't propose to stand for any third
degree work" says Attorney Smith, but
further than that l can make no state
ment now My client must be protected,
but / want to do anything that Is fair.
Grand juror Favors Retrial.
''Conley has told the truth and all the
truth" said Chief OF Detectives Lang
ford. 4 don't care what methods Burns
uses, he won't get anything more out Of
that negro than has already been OBJ
tained by the men who worked on the
case"
N NJ. Mccullough. a prominent busi-
ness man, who was a member Of the
grand jury. thinks the jury should meet
and make public certain matters in con-
neCtion with Franks indictment.
Looking at the matter from the moral
point of view, it seems to me that there
should be a trial of this case conducted
in what one might call a more judicial
atmosphere: especially IN view of the
fact that the trial judge, himself. was
not convinced either way" said Mr.. Nc
CnIlough. -
sAnnther in forr of t-;o
is the improbability that the note, which
Conley wrote, so full OF negro supersti-
tion, was dictated by a white man. This
point was not brought to the atten-
tion of the jury, and is certaialy worth
considering
