ATLANTA. Ga. May 4.-Hotly de-
nouncing Solicitor Dorsey's methods
in insinuating croOkedness by the
Burns Detective agency today. Dan l..
Lehon, after being questioned at length
by the solicitor at the hearing OF the
extraordinary motion for a new trial
for Leo NJ. Frank, asked Judge Hill IL
he might make a statement. Given
permission, LehOn made a statement
declaring that procedure OF the prose-
CutiOn was outrageous.
The solicitor has been trying to
make IL appear that l and the other
officials OF the Burns agency have been
guilty OF crooked work. That's a lie
and there i3 no basis for It,"
Judge Hill stopped Dehon in his de-
nunciation, but the detective was so
indignant that he continued despite
the warning. Judge Hill then threat
ened TO adtudge Lehon in contempt of
court. LehOn thereupOn apolOgized
for his outbreak. Lehon declared that
the $500 paid TO him by counsel for the
defense and afterward turned over TO
Carlton G.. Tedder, was fees and ex-
pense money for a trip TO Chattanooga,
Birmingham and Nashville.
