Old Copies in Waste Paper.
The defense contends that the old
carbon copies of Becker's order blanRs
had been carried to the basement as
waste paper, and viii attempt 10

and in the trial itself. II granted
that II was in the basement near the
body OF his victim, that Jim Conley
hurriedly procured the old order
blanks. and after a sloVenly attempt

the struggling characters that placed
the blame on some long, tall black
negro'-the antithesis OF short,
stocky, ginger cake Jim Conley.
For the rest OF the new evidence,
there is the reputation Of Albert
Mcknight. that OF Nina Formby and
Georgs Epps, and the statement of
Mrs. Ethel Harris Miller that she saw
Frank at the corner of whitehall and
Alabama streets at the time he was
supposed by the state to have been
helping Conley to dispose Of Mary
Phagan's body,
Then there is an affidavit by Helen
Ferguson. a friend OF Mary Phagan,
who says she was frightened by Jim
Conley drunk and insulting. the
week before Mary Phagan was killed
Frank, i'm a statement composed by
himself at the Tower, has gone fully
into the points on which the State
based its case against him, and, In
list Of seventeen replies made 10 sug-
gested queries, has made a careful
effort to show injustice and preju-
dice in connecting him with the muir
DER OF Mary Phagan.
Frank begins with the fact that he
let Newt Lee, the Waterman, have
that Saturday afternoon off from his
work, follows with the writing OF the
mysterious notes, comments on his
refusal to see Jim Conley after his
arrest and finishes by explaining what

he means by the terms prejudice and
persecution.
at Is nothing to say that Newt Lee
was let off for the first time since he
had been employed as Waterman"
said Frank Lee had been employed
only two weeks, so anything, almost,
that might have been done for him
would necessarily be for the first
time

"As a matter of fact, told Newt

and told Lee he could take the after

o'clock I did not insist that he go,
did not care whether he went or
stayed"
Frank then took up the possibility
OF Mary Phagan'S having been killed
in another part Of the factory than
the metal room while he was in the
building, without his hearing any
thing to make him suspicious.
Mary Phagan may have been At

That, in fact, Is my theory OF the
