He has Wl1e and two small daughters.

FRANK LOSES IN
 SUPERIOR COURT Judge Ben Hill Refuses to
 Hear Motion: to Set Aside Verdict.

Atlanta, Ga., June 6.-Judge Ben Il. Hill of the Fulton county superior court today sustained the states de- murrer to the motion to set aside the verdict by which Leo M. Frank was pronounced guilty of the murder Of Mary Phagan, factory girl.
 The motion was based on the claim that Franks constitutional rights were violated as the verdict was re- turned during the condemned mans absence from court.
 In sustaining the demurrer, Judge Hill refused to hear the motion on It's merits, holding instead that it was filed too late to merit consideration.
 It was regarded in court circles as highly probable that Franks attor- neys would immediately appeal to the state supreme court, asking that Judge Hills action be reversed.
 In the event that the ruling is af- firmed, Franks lawyers probably would appeal to the United States su preme court.

NIGHT GOWN PARADES
Rapp's Lawyer Changes Tactics When Madame's Attorneys Introduce Letters from Rapp to Mrs.
 Dean, Secured by Woman.

Chicago, June 6.-Mrs. Ernestine against William Rapp, Jr, reached it's climax with Wasnerian clash today.
 The madame's lawyers, who had been wading through series of dry and apparently pointless deposl- tions taken i:l New York, suddenly began to read a satchelful of letters written buy Rapp last summer to Mrs. Katherine E. Dean, the occupant of the third corner in his domestic tri- angle. In the correspondence, Rapp flippantly shortened his wife's hypen- ated name into "Shanks."
 After Mrs. Dean-"Nora" the pet name almost invariably used by Rapp in his salutations-ha read the let ters they fell into the hands of a woman detective, who had obtained entrance 10 the "Dean-Rapp' atfin- ity flat in New York as a roomer. The detective, Miss Frances Ashton, Sullivan's court, and identified each of the letters as they were introduc- ed into evidence
 De1tHSe ClHFgeS IuctlcSs
 There still remained many of the "Nona' letters to be read when court adjourned, but the first few samples were pithy and revealed so clearly the relations between Mona and Rapp that the defense, in a futile effort to avert further disclosure, admitted the truth of the diverse allegations.
 Only on one point, however, did Rapp's lawyers surrender. They will continue to contestthe suit, but have shifted the base of their defense and now rely upon their ability to prove madame also was guilty of indiscre- tions serious enough to prevent her from winning her decree.
 Miss Ashton, in addition to identi- flying the letters, told of kisses in the dark and night-gow2 parades in the Dean flat in New York.
 "YOur Faithful Bill"
 Mrs. Elizabeth Hauk, in her dispo- sition. said she had often seen MT. Rapp at the Dean apartment, and Lillian Schmidt, daughter of the Dean apartment owner, told of being hired by Mark Harrison, an actor, to take Pluto, MT. Deans dC<, out for exercise.
 The girl testified she saw Rapp at | the Dean apartment wearing an apron and fixing the stove. She de- clared Mrs. Dean asked him to buy some meat, and called him honey" "Once." the girls deposition ran "Mrs. Dean showed me letter from MT. Rapp. She kissed the letter and I pretended I did not SC it. She let me read the letter. I don't now re member what it said, but it ended your faithful Bill.'"
 Brs. Annie Schmidt. mother of 1.il Han. in a deposition, said she knew Rapp and often had seen him about Mrs. Deans place. She told o1 seeing him leave early each morning ia February. 1913.
 "He waved to somebody at the kitchen window every morning" sai( Mrs. Schmidt.

 Washington, June 6.-General Car ranza today put an end to the reports that he would send delegates to the Niagara Falls peace barley to confer on the establishment of a provisional government of Mexico and other .n- ternal affairs of the republic.
 His position appears unalterable that he will not consider a mediation plan that proposes to settle or even discuss the internal affairs of Mexico.
 A message to this effect was receiv- ed from Carranza today by a local member of the Constitutionalist junta. It was in answer to a query if there was any foundation for numerous re- ports that under pressure from the United States he had consented to send delegates to Niagara, who would be empowered to agree to a temporary armistice with Huerta, and discuss the establishment of provisional government.
 Carranzlstas are Puzzled. lThe delay of the Carranzistas in answering the .mediators' last note is due to the fact that they have not full ly decided as to the best manner in which they should make known the Constitutionalist positions to the A. B l C. mediatOrs.
 Some favor responding to the medi- ators' note, which it is generally un- derstood does not raise the questions of armistice or the discussion of inter.

BostOn Stockholders of New Haven Prepare Action in Attempt to Force Morgan, Rockefeller

Washington, June 6.lWith a final
 attempt by New Haven officials to es-
 tablish Charles s. Mellen's member
 ehip in the Ananias club, the Inter-
 state Commerce Commission investiga- Zton into the New Haven closed today. |An officer of the commission stated |that the taking of testimony will
 probably be resumed on Thursday of
 next week.
 When the hearings have been
 Brought to an end the commission will take up the record of testimony in

 time will render ite report to the son
 ate under the Norris resolution, lpon
 which the inquiry has been based
 That the New Havens affairs will
 not be permitted to rest with the
 commission's report has become appa-
 rent. The onslaught on Mellen which
 developed in the closing hours of the
 hearing, has brought out fruitful field for those who are bent on Swal-
 lowing up the disclosures in the case
 The senate itself, following the sub-
 mission of the commissions report
 may undertake an investigation ot it's i own.
 Says MelIen Borrowed Millions. L. S. Miller, testifying today, said l that Mellen himself had borrowed S9,- 1 909000 of the lost $11 100000 which
 has figured so prominently in the in- | yestigation. Miller, who is presiden
 of the New York, Westchester & Bos-
 ton, swore that Mellen had borrowed
 this without the approval, sanction
 consent or knowledge of the New Haven's finance committed This creates direct issue between Miller and Mellen, as the latter tesli- fled that he knew nothing concerning the disposition of the bulk of the S11,- l 100000 fund.- leaving the inference that it was used to further the manipula- tlons of the late Mir. J. P. Morgan. Whether Mellen will be recalled anC given an opportunity to refute the tes timony of Miller is not known. It is clear that breach had been made 1T l the apparently impregnable wall O. 1 A"~.o lidC uC DuiIl di Oullu llli.!t'N' during the course of his week on thJ stand. That either Mellen or the wit l nesses who followed in opposition tt him have committed such deliberate perjury that it cannot be ignored hA the commission or senate, sticks Ou as the important Announcement of the investigation.

Special Gable to The Atlanta Georgian.
PARIS, Jan. 15.-Francisco de la
Barra, Mexican Minister to France,
to-day cabled his resignation to Pres
ident Huerta and left for Switzerland.
He took this action after protesting
against the determination of the Mex
lean Government TO default on its
payments to foreign nations.
Senior de la Barra has played a
prominent part In the diplomatic at
fairs of Mexico since Huerta became
President, and his retirement is ex~
pected to hasten the fall of the Mex
lean Dictator De la Barra, while ac-
credited to the French Government,
also was sent as special envoy to
Japan, and received an enthusiastic
greeting at Toxic in ti-American
circles. He returned here recently
and renewed his efforts to secure a
loan from Partisan bankers. Accord
ing to his friends, he believes he
would have succeeded had Huerta
not interfered.
De la Barra succeeded Porfirio Diaz
as Provisional President, and served
until President Madero took office. He
also served as Minister of Foreign At
fairs and as Ambassador to the
United States.

| Or. r. ]. Benson, OF Wilkerson Coun-
| ty, Wednesday set a most excellent ex-
ample to other Confederate Veterans in
Georgia, when he tackled an Identified

at Gettysburg, and which in after years
was returned to the State to be kept on
permanent display in the Capitol.
DR.. Benson was the color bearer of the
Forty eighth Georgia Infantry at the
thick of that fight that he lost the COL
ors. Later, at big reunion at Chatta-
| nooga, he met the Union soldier who
picked up the colors after the battle, and
this was the man who returned them.
Wednesday Or. Benson tackled on to the
flag silver plate bearing this inscrip-
ton. "E. J. Benson. Color Bearer
Gettysburg. July 2, 1853" After the
battle this flag fell into the hands OF
the Fifty ninth New York.
In this connection, 1t might be stated
that unless some steps are taken TO pre-
serve the Confederate flags now on dis
play in the Capitol, they will be com
pletely destroyed by the moths and dirt
within the next few years. Already
they are fast falling into decay II has
been suggested that the flags be treated
with preserving fluids and put lin air

that unless this is done, there will be
no Confederate flags left in the Georgia
Capitol after few more years.

there will be an unusually large num-
Der of aspirants for honors in the field
of Georgia politics before many more
days have passed.
Georgia is to have a Senate next time
made up almost entirely of members
from the smaller counties. Indeed, of all
the large counties, Chatham alone seems
likely to be represented in the next State
Senate.
Under the rotation system, the COM
plexion of the Senate changes completely
every time Legislature is elected. but
generally each new Senate contains a
number of members promoted from the
House OF the previous session. In the
present Senate-which Is "city Sem
ate"-Macon, Savannah, Columbus and
Valdosta are represented. In the next
Senate, no one of the large cities. save
Savannah alone, will have a member of
that body TO it's credit.
Representative Barry Wright. of
Floyd, has been named chairman Of the
committee on laws OF the State Cham
Der of Commerce.
Mr.. Wright is one of the leading law
yers of North Georgia, and is well
equipped for the work he has agreed. to
undertake. Associated with him will be
prominent attorneys from all sections of
the State. Chairman Hayden, of the
State Chamber has endeavored to make
