FRANK ASKS WRIT
OF HABEAS CORPUS
Lawyers Begin New Fight to
Save Condemned Man in
Federal Court.

ATLANTA, Ga. Dec. IA new
effort to save the life of Leo NJ.
Frank, sentenced TO be hanged Janu-
ary 22 for the murder of Mary Pha-
gan, was begun in Federal District
Court here yesterday.
Lawyers for Frank filed a petition
for his release on a habeas corpus
writ, on the ground he was convicted
without due process OF law and is
being detained Illegally. If the petl-
ton is denied, the lawyers said, ap
peal will be taken directly to the
United States Supreme Court.
The petition alleges that the pris-
oner's constitutional rights were vio-
lated by return of a verdict in his
absence from the courtroom; that
the jury was Influenced by popular
demonstrations, and that the trial
court therefore lost jurisdiction in
the case before a conviction was
reached. Federal Judge Newman an
nounced he would hear argument on
the petition tomorrow.
previous effort to bring the case
before the Federal Supreme Court
failed when both the State courts
and the Supreme Court refused to
grant a writ of error for review.
That action also was based on al
legations that Franks constitutional
rights had been violated. but It did
not involve a habeas corpus proceed
ing.
The petition sets forth that Frank
knew nothing of the agreement OF his
lawyers to waive his presence when
a verdict was returned, and that his
counsel could not legally act for him
where such a right was involved.

Refused to Be Mother; Loses
Her Breach of Promise Suit

NEW YORK, Dec 1S.-The inability
or unwillingness Of woman to have
children relieves the defendant or
liability IN a suit for breach OF
promise, according to ruling made
by Supreme Court Justice Benton
yesterday in charging the jury in a
suit Of Miss Bertha Schechtel, q
daughter of clothing manufacturer.
against David Greenhouse, Of 10
Willow avenue, Hoboken, for S15, 600
Tho jury returned a verdict for the
defendant.
Justice Benton's ruling was based
on two letters written by the plaintiff
In one Of which she said
Il wonder why the husband should
have anything to say about IL. What
does it concern him IN the least?"
The plaintiff also wrote that for
tune-teller ad advised her against
motherhood. and had told her: You
won't mind. but your husband will"
In upholding the defendant in his
charge Justice Benton said
ANY man is entitled, even at the
very steps of the altar, to be relieved
OF a promise to marry II he learns
that the prospective bride is in
capable Of bearing or will not bear
children. This question of matrimony
is one that concerns not merely the
man or woman to be wed, but the
whole human race. Civilization Itself
demands not only that children be
born, but that they be born to a
proper heritage, mentally and phys
icaIly.'

BRITISH END SWAY
OF TURK IN EGYPT
Lord High Commissioner Ap-
pointed for New Pro-
tectorate.

LONDON. Dec. 1s.-Ths foreign
eflcs issued the following last night:
IN view Of the state of war arising
out Of the action Of Turkey, Egypt Is
placed under the protection Of his
Britannia majesty and will hencefor'h b
constitute British protectorate. The
suxerainty Of Turkey Is thus termt-
mated.
+sFzis ma ajesty's government will adopt
all the measures necessary for the
defense OF Egypt and the protection
Of lta inhabitants and interests.
THE king has been pleased to ap-
prove the appointment Of Colonel Sir
Arthur Henry Mcmahon who has
been foreign secretary TO the govern
ment Of India since 1911, as his ma
jezty'E high commissioner in Egypt
Egypt. although nominally under
ths suzera1nty of Turkey. has been
practically under British control for
many years. Railways, telegraphs
and other improvements were made
by the British, and through their
efforts the Suez canal was opened IN
1883. Dissatisfaction ensued over the
administration OF financial affairs, and
IN 1878 representatives OF French ana
British bondholders OF the canal es-
tahlished dual control over the
finances, with a British and French
representative in the cabinet Of the
khedive.
The latter was soon dismissed by
order OF the sultan OF Turkey and
Tewlk Pasha was appointed to sue
eeed him. In 1879 England and France
re-established the dual control, which
was continued for two years, during
which much progress was made. 4
mutiny among the Egyptians started,
which the sultan failed TO suppress.
France and Italy declined to join Eng
land In armored Intervention, and the
latter country subdued the insured
ton alone.
Since then England has been on the
verge Of war with Turkey on one or
two occasions over Egypt, but the SUI
tan always backed down at the last
moment. The British occupation be-
gan In 1904 and the garrisons have
never been withdrawn. England and
France reached an agreement by
which the latter was compensated
for her withdrawal from Egypt by
moro territory In Morocco. This put

CAPTAIN
DESCRIBES BATTLE.
Germans Caught in Own Trap
Off FaIklands Fought to
the End.

BUENOS AIRES, Dec. 1S.--rhe fol-
lowing account of the battle off the
Falkland Islands on December S, in
which Admiral von Specs squadron,
with the exception of the cruiser
Dresden, was destroyed by the Brit
ish squadron under Admiral Sturdee,
was given by the commander of the
Dresden to the German consul at
Punta Arenas when the cruiser put
in there during her fight from the
pursuing British. II is the first Off
cial version to come from German
source
"The German Pacific division,
said the Dresdens commander, left
the Pacific to go TO the Falkland
Islands by way of Cape Horn. The
VOYAGE was made without incident.
"A little before arriving at our des-
tination- the commander Of the dlvi-
sion. yiee-Admiral Won Spec. detached
one of our cruisers TO explore and to
discover facts concerning the presence
OF English ships in the islands. The
ship returned and reported that there
were two English cruisers. The ad-
miral prepared at once to give battle
to the hostile ships, Issuing the neces-
sary orders.
Advancing toward the islands IN q
little while we were able to make out
he strength of the hostile forces.
There were not two cruisers, but six.
Our commander kept to his resolution
and continued the advance.
"a little later at the mouth of the
bay we noted two dreadnoughts of the
Lion type 10000 tons, more or less,
whose presence was unknown before.
THE conditions were magnificent.
The weather was clear and calm,
These conditions made Impossible a
combat with a chance of escape for
ne German feet. Admiral Won Spec
persisted in his resolution to give bat
tie, with the Scharnhorst and Gneis-
enau acting together, ordering at the
same time the disposal of the three
other units. the minor cruisers Leip-
zig, Dresden and Nurnberg
Meanwhile, the two cruisers above
mentioned courageously faced the
English fleet. The latter was attacked
by our two cruisers, while the Leipzig.
Nurnberg and Dresden tried to place
themselves outside the range of the
enemy's cannon, the only device COM
patible with the circumstances in
view of the number. quality and size
OF the English ships.
'It suffices to remark that the Eng
lish dreadnoughts were armed with
34-centimeter cannon. while the Ger
man cruisers only had 21-centimeter
The commander OF the Dresden adds
that by intercepted English radio
grams he learned Of the sinking of
the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau. but
he does not know the fate Of the Leip-
zig OF Nurnberg.
