COWARD|CE
IS CHARGE:
Congressman, in Minority Re-
port on Canal Bill, Calls 1t
"PusiIIanimous Doctrine"

WASHINGTON, March 14-That it
would be IAN act of national cow
ardice" to comply with Great Britains
demand to repeal the Panama Canal
tolls exemption for American ships
and that President Wilson's stand for
repeal is a "pusillanimous doctrine"
were the declarations to-day of Rep
resentative Joseph R. Knowland. a
Republican, of California, in minor
ity report on the Sims repeal bill filed
in the House.
Knowland made an emphatic pro-
test against this surrender" TO the
British Foreign Office and quoted
from Presidents Pierce, Buchanan,
Grant, Hayes, Arthur Mckinley
Roosevelt and Taft to show that a
vigorous American policy with rela-
ton to canal control is a tradition
with the United States Government.
He roundly criticised this new
peace at any price policy"
Nothing Less Than cowardice.
Il vigorously protest against the at
tempt to force the Congress of the
United States, through a legislative
enactment, to give a British interpre-
tation to the Hay Pauncefote treaty,
thus surrendering for all future time
rights vitality affecting the nation
commercially, strategically and polit-
ically," said the report.
ITO acquiesce in the demand OF
Great Britain after this Government,
speaking through a former Secretary
of State, has upheld the American po-
sition, would be nothing less than an
act of national cowardice"

MEX|CANS
Twelve in Jail Following HoIdup,
Killing, Battle and Flight of
Outlaws in Illinois.

PRINCETON. ILL. March IA
Armed posses of special deputy sher-
IFS and citizens, on horseback, in au-
tomobiles and on foot, swept the tim
berland of Middle Western Illinois
to-day to nip a threatened Mexican
uprising. The posses moved under
orders Of Sheriff Byers, OF Princeton,
who had received word that 200
armed Mexicans, living in dugouts in
the vicinity of the scene of yester-
days sensational train holdup at
Manlius, H., on the Chicago and
Northwestern Railroad, in which En-
gineer Arthur Fisher was shot to
death, we're much excited over the
affair and had threatened vengeance.
Twelve men-all Mexicans-are in
jail here to-day. Fernando Lopez.
one OF the four desperadoes who tried
to loot the freight car yesterday, died
from bullet wounds inflicted during
battle with a Sheriff's posse. The
three others, who were captured after
a series Of revolver fights, were
brought here to prevent lynching.
Nine other Mexicans we're arrested
during the night because the authori-
ties feared trouble and Sheriff Byers
said to-day he would arrest every
Mexican in this part OF the State II
he received verifcation Of reports
that an uprising was contemplated.
The two bullet wounds inflicted on
Sheriff Byers in the fights with the
bandits we're not troubling him to-
day.
A report from Chillicothe, ILL.,. said
that a Mexican had been arrested
there and would be brought to
Princeton. The man had consider
able money and two revolvers in his
pockets
Bitterness between Mexicans and
Americans has been growing since
Christmas Day. when a revolver bat
tie was staged at Depew, ILL.,, between
a band of Mexican section hands and
American laborers. No one was
killed in the fight and only one Mexi-
can was wounded

RAPS IDEA Of
TRUTHFR0M
NEGRO
Declares Chiefs Plan to Oppose
Burns Quizzing Accuser Does
Not Worry SIeuth.

Leo Frank Saturday paid his re-
castle criticism Of the detective chiefs
published declaration that Jim Conley
told the truth on the stand, and that
any change he might make in his
sworn statement now, even under the
pressure Of Detective Burns question
ing, would be a lie pure and simple.
What gift of omniscience permits
our great detective chief to look into
the very soul of the negro and dis
tinguish the Instant he veers from
the lies that he has been telling to
the straight course of veracity?
"Conley made his first statement
May Is. That was tissue Of lies.
Chief Lanford and his detectives ad
NIT that He made another May "a,
a third on May % and fourth on
May 90. each one different than the
one preceding. and all Of them more
or less untruthful.
Testimony Differs, Too.
Then came the trial. Conley tes-
titled and again added and took away (
from the statements he had made be- I
fore.
THAT is the truth and the whole
truth, said the detective chief and {
the Solicitor. But how do they know
that it is? What supernatural power
is theirs that they can pick from a
mass of admitted and confessed lies
and say that that which they have
chosen is the truth and is sufficient
basis to hang a man?
Each successive statement the ne
gro made he swore was the truth and
the whole truth, and yet each one was z
different How can Chief Lanford ar
bitrarly say, The NTH statement
the one which he made on the wit
ness stands true, and the others
are false?'
He not only says this much, but
he goes further and declares that
anything the negro may say in the
future which changes his story on the
stand will be lie
Has Confidence in Burns.
Atlanta certainly is fortunate in
having a detective chief who is able
not only to determine with supernat-
ural insight just tine moment the sub
ject of his wonderful powers forsakes
untruth and tells the facts, but can,
with unerring accuracy, foreteii /
whether this person in the future is
to tell the truth or lie.
q am not particularly interested in
the chiefs announcement that he will 7
oppose Detective Burns If Burns seeks
to see Conley don't imagine that
Burns will let that worry him much.
81 have enough confidence in him to
believe that he will arrive at the truth
in spite Of any obstacles that may be
put in his path. / do not even know
that he will care to see Conley at this
part OF his investigation"
Story Seems Groundless.
Investigation by The Georgian Sat
urday showed that there was little, X
any, foundation for wild story that
Solicitor Dorsey had seen Frank on
the day Mary Phagan was murdered
The story apparently grew out. Of
the fact that the Solicitor was walk
ing with C. w. Mcclure when this
latter passed one of the Montag
brothers and in the early days Of this
case recalled the fact.
The defense heard an indefinite ru
NOR that the Solicitor had seen
Frank. Its investigation failed en-
tirely to establish that fact, and re-

DROP OVER
STATE
Wholesome Effect Of Expose Be-
gun by The Georgian Noted
in Prison Board Reports,

4 Comparative figures on file in the
baice Of the Georgia Prison Commits
koD show sharp and significant de-
|trease in the total number of whip
'bings in State convic t camps for
February, as contrasted with the to-
Hal for January, before The Georgian
began its expose of conditions fol-
lowed bv the Grand Jury's radical
recommendations.
This is a decrease Of go per cent.
In January. Fulton guards whipped
i boo oonyicts, while in February the
|total dropped to 90.
1 This is a decrease of S0.7 per cent.
Although no public statement has
been given out TO that effect, the evil
der opinion in the Prison Commits
Zion is that recent agitation against
|vhippings and convict conditions
generally in Georgia has produced a
decidedly good result
While very guarded in their state
|ments officials plainly take pride in
the decrease shown, not only in Full
ton where the protest against condi-
tons has waged most vigorously. but
throughout the entire State.
Third Lower in State.
Figures other than those concern
ing Fulton show for the months of
January and February a decrease of
approximately SO Ia per cent in the
humber of whippings reported from
Georgia's 1876 convict camps, and a
corresponding increase in the number
o. counties reporting no whippings at
all for the same months.
In January the total number Of
Rhippings reported from all camps
was 5S1, while for the same month
he number of camps reporting no
VAippings at all was 3S.
IN February the total number Of
yhippings was 321, and the total
number of counties reporting no
Thippings was so.
Blob County shows a total of one
Whipping for January and one for
February-an "even break" and leav-
ing little to go there in order to &C
omplish a clean score.
Even in Sumter County, where
Whipping seemingly has prevailed
rather strenuously, a drop of from so
p January to II in February is
shown.
Commission Watching Closely.
There vet remains much work Of
reform TO be done in the various pris-
on camps. for in many of them whip
ping still is carried to an excess, de-
spite recent revelations OF horrors.
Some camps show few whippings,
Out relatively no decrease, and in
some others the disposition to whip
'pon slight provocation still is very
evident.
