I'D PROBE METHODS USED IN CONNECTION
 WITH FRANK CASE
Georgia Judge Instructs Jury to Inquire Into Man ner Defense Obtained
 Evidence

Atlanta, May ls.-Inquiry into methods used in obtaining evidence in connection with the extraordinary motion for new trial for Leo M. Frank was directed here today by Judge Ben II. Hill in instructing the Fulton county grand jury.
 The course followed by certain detec- tives' in the case of the factory superin- tenoert who is under sentence of death for the murder of Mary Phagan, tne l4-year old factory girl, were severely criticized by Judge Hill He characterized the work Of these famous sleuths as an obstruc- tion to the administration of justice
 'I doubt the wisdom of allowing detec- tives from another state, whether they be, noted, famous. or infamous. to come here and criticize our officers and our courts. We have no room here for such men-men who come posing as seeking the truth, when thy are only seeking notoriety and money said the judge.
 The court told the grand jury that various witnesses in the case had repudi- ated the testimony given them at the trial of Frank and some later had made counter repudiations. Investigation into the charges of bribery and fraud that were made in connection with these state ments was asked.

TO STOP TEACHERS
 FROM ORGANIZING

Cleveland. O.. May 1S-The board of education today took drastic measures to crush the efforts of the women teachers in the graded schools of the city to form a labor union. The board, by a vote of four to three, passed resolution declaring that members par ticipating in labor union shall be regarded as a breach of the contract of employment with the board of edu- cation and the equivalent of a resig- nation as an employe of the board,
 Those who ask for appointment as teachers for the 1s14-15 work year. ac- cording to the resolution, must abide by this contract
 The fight between the board and the teachers is result of the efforts of the teachers to obtain increases in sal aries. The board refused to raise the pay and recently 800 teachers voted to form a union and become affiliated with. the Federation of Labor. The teachers are now arranging the de- tails to form their union.

Ex-President Is Not Sick Man as Reported-Will Reach Oyster Bay
 This Afternoon

New York. May 1ss-Theodore Roose- velt's journey from the jungles of Brazil will terminate probably late tomorrow with sllis arrival at his home in oyster Bay Long Island.

He remained confined in his cabin for three days on the fourth he appeared on deck and when a few hours later, at Para, he stepped aboard the Aidan, Captain Alexander said. the fever from which he had been suffering had disappeared, the wound on his leg. due to an operation performed at Manaos for an abscess, was fast mending; he had gained in weight, his appetite had returned and he was in the best of spirits.
 According to friends of the Roosevelt family, the impression that the colonel is returning a sick man probably arose over their efforts to have him reach his home without being generally hailed by the public on shore. The family Is de- sirous of avoiding demonstration either at the Brooklyn pier or at the depot at Oyster Bay

That morning Colonel Roosevelt had undergone an operation for the in jury sustained to his leg while trying to save a canoe in the river rapids dur ing his tour of exploration. lie was brought on a stretcher in an automobile to the dock. He refused to be carried on to the boat, but leaned on the arms of two companions and walked.
 The colonel's appearance on the fourth day showed him d changed man, accord ing to Captain Alexander. He asked to be introduced to the officers. said he was hungry guessed he would go below for bread and jam, and generally made himself popular with the crew. Kermit Roosevelt and Leo c. Miller and George K Cherry, naturalists, members of the expedition, accompanied the colonel to Para. Kermit left the party there to go to. Spain where he is to be AIrjed Miller and Cherry are with the colonel on board the Aidan.
