PHACAN CASE IS
CLEARED, SAYS
B|DD|NCER
Burns Detective Certain Every
Phase of Mystery Will Be
Fully Explained

GUY B Biddinger, assistant general
manager Of the w j Burns Detec-
tive Agency. said Wednesday, after
spending four days in Atlanta work
ing in secret on the Phagan murder
case. that there was no doubt in his
mind as to the slayer or the factory
girl He repeated the declarati ton Of
his chief that the case presented no
mystery that could not be cleared up
satisfactorily and finally.
Referring to the original affidavit
of Nina Formby, the woman who
charged Frank with calling her up
the night of the murder for the pur-
pose of obtaining permission to bring
a girl to her house, he said
1T is possible for an irresponsible
liar to do an innocent person almost
irreparable harm. Although this wo-
man may not be worthy Of belief in
anything she says, she has neverthe-
less accomplished nearly as much in
damaging the character of Frank as
though she were the most truthful
person in the world.
Doesn't Admit Seeing Woman.
Mr.. Biddinger void not admit that
he had interviewed the Formby wo-
man In New York. where she has
been staying for several months, but
his comments on her affidavits indi-
Gated that he was thoroughly ac-
quainted with the sinister part she
PLAYED in originating the stories of
immortality that We're repeated
against the defendant although she
was not called to testify at the trial
Burns aide said that he did not
know how long he would he in At
lanta on the case. but that ne intends
to stay until every phase is cleared
up.
1T was Mr. Burns intention to sub
NIT his report this week" he said
but he may have encountered new
angles on his trip North that VIII re-
quire additional time for his investi-
cation It is certain that he already
has acquired valuable information
during his absence Not all of his
time has been spent in New York.
He has been out of the city to run
down entirely new evidence that came
10 his knowledge When he returns
and makes his report the public can
expect to hear of several things that
never have been mentioned before in
connection with the case.
Each to Make Report.
while Mr. Burns Mr.. Lehon and
myself have been working systemat-
icallv on the case we have been going
at it more or less independently and
when we conclude our work each OF
us will make separate report. Mr..
Burns VIII make a complete report
of his investiga ton. Mr. Lehon win

make one after A few days more
we then will get together and
compare notes If there Is any vari-
ance in any Of our conclusions, we
will take up these conflicting phases
and get the straight of them before
