ing played an entire season at the

FRANK CASE
IN SECRET
Nature Of His Work Mystery
Mission Of Burns iu&ew
York Also Hidden.

With William j. Burns still delay
ing his return to Atlanta and Guy B.
Biddinger, criminal expert of the
Burns service in town-his presence
here clothed with secrecy-the Frank
case put on an additional air of mys-
terry and new line of speculation
was opened up
Biddinger is in Atlanta, and is be-
lieved to have been here several days.
His work has been secret, and until
Wednesday morning no enc outside
the Burns service knew he was here.
Fresh Interest Aroused
This fact, coupled with the mys-
terry that surrounds the mission OF
Burns in New York has stirred up
fresh interest in both camps
The defense continues to assert
that the rev evidence said to have
been discovered by Burns in New
York and other Eastern cities will be
used in the motion for new trial,
or rather added 10 the motion Of
which notice already has been served
on Hugh Dorsey Solicitor General.
Leonard Haas. of counsel for the
defense, says that Mr. Burns investi-
cations in New York have been "emi-
nently successful" and that the de-
tective will bring back with him some
valuable evidence to be added to the
motion for new trial
Follows Secret Trail.
The character Of this evidence is
not known. but it is said not to CON
Germ either Nina Formby or H. F.
Becker, the only New York connec-
tions with the famous case at pres
ent known, IL the handwriting ex-
pert who first examined the murder
note be excepted
And Burns has stated that it was
not handwriting experts he was
seeking.
Whatever the new evidence is, e
will he made public of necessity as
soon as it becomes a part of the mo-
ton for a new trial. copy Of which
must be submitted to Solicitor Dor

County Will Be Asked to Defer
Election to Give Time for
Bonds Campaign,

Plans to have the county elections
deferred until May Is so that the
issuance of 100000 in bonds for
building the plaza over Atanta's
"blemish" may be submitted to the
people along with the $750,000 bond
issue for a Greater Grady Hospital
were pushed forward Wednesday,
The scheme was launched by Mayor
Woodward Tuesday at meeting in
his office, attended by Judge Eugene
Thomas, chairman of the County EX
ecutive Committee, and representa-
tives OF the local newspapers.
Judge Thomas expressed himself as
being very favorable to the PROPOSE
ton. and promised the Mayor that he
would call his committee together on
Friday morning to give it considera-
1ion
Before that time the various candi-
dates who are to participate in the
elections will be conferred with by
committee composed of the newspa
per men in an effort to have them
agree to the postponement, in view
of the fact that it would mean so
much to the city of Atlanta
Candidates Likely to Agree.
Mayor Woodward said he did not
believe any of the candidates would
raise an objection to the proposed
change. and that they would be only
too willing to have the date set back
so that the people may have the OPP
portunity of passing on these two
most important questions.
1T will mean a slight sacrifice on
their part" he said, but you will find
each one ready to put his shoulder to
the wheel when the betterment Of this
great city is at stake" said the
mayor
With the postponement Of the cleo
ton from May to May % the Mayor
claimed there would be plenty Of time
TO conduct a winning campaign, be-
cause the people now were fully ac-
uuainted with the necessity Of i'm
provements to their citys unsightly
"gulch."
If his proposition is met with favor
by the County Executive Committee,
ne will urge Council to authorize the
submission of both bond issues TO the
people at ono time The bonds will
be voted on by separate ballot, and
il will be within the right Of the
voter to support one issue and reject
the other or to vote for or against
both.
Newspapers to Aid.
James r. Gray. Of The Journa. said
he would lend his best efforts to have
these two questions placed before the
people at one time--as soon as posi-
bic. He will also assist in securing
the consent Of the candidates for
county election for the postponement.
Clark Howell, of The Constitution
agreed to do all in his power to put
through both projects. lie did not
believe there would be any difficulty
in convincing the candidates in the
necessity Of the postponement-on the
contrary. he was sure they would
readily agree.
Keats Speed, Of The Georgian and
American, urged that the question be
taken up editorially, as it meant so
much to the city Mr. Speed said The
Georgian was heartily In favor Of

LEAGUE DIRECTORS
MEETING TODAY
MoguIs Of Central Association Gather
at Cedar Rapids for Mid
Summer Conference.

At the meeting Of the directors of
the Central association to be held at
Cedar Rapids this afternoon, several
very important questions will, in all
probability be brought up. There
have been arguments and charges
going on in the circuit for some time,
principally regarding the player and
salary limit, and they will probably
be given the "once over" this after
noon.
A situation, the outcome of which
is very important, is that at Ottumwa.
Ottumwa evidently will not support
baseball, and it was decided last week
that the city would no longer have a
representative team. 1t is now said
on good authority that the franchise
has been given Ned Egan and that he.
in company with President Justice,
has gone to Rock Island in an effort
to place the team there. Whether or
not their efforts met with any kind OF
success will be known this afternoon
when the league moguls gather.
The Rock Island papers have been
emphatic in their statements that the
city does not want berth in the C,
A. this late in the year, but the head
of the league may be able to have the
fans reconsider the issue.
