Now, follow the facts closely:
Franks own detective, Harry Scott, in his
energetic efforts to find the criminal, pinned
Frank down, as TO aohere he qcas, after Ma4y

Frank told Harry Scott, in the hearing Of
John Black, that he was continuously IN has

The white lady, Mrs. Arthur White, came
down from the 4th floor at - :35, and found
Frank in his office, STOPPING before the iron

office, after Nary had gone aaUay from 1t,

Where was Frank, then?
THAT IS THE CRUZ or THE

Right there, in that fateful half hour, lies
the crime.
Who is the criminal of that fatal half
hour?
If Frank had been in his office. Monteen
would, of course, have seen him when she
went to it-and he would have seen her.
He did not see her, and therefore did not
know that she had been there, until after he
had told Harry Scott, positively and repeat

It was afterwards, when the unimpeachable
Monteen told what she knew, that Frank saw
how he had boxed himself up.
Then it was that such persistent and des-

When you test the theory that Conley alone

on. Jim never bothered those white girls, did
not act like a negro who had committed the
objectionable crime on a white woman, did
not try to lay suspicion on anybody, and went
about his work as usual on Monday and Tues
day.
There is absolutely no evidence against the
negro, upon which the State could have made
the shadow of case.
When you test in your mind the hypothesis
that Frank and jim both committed the crime,
you make some slight Roadway, for Jim and
Frank shielded each 0ther until Frank was
