HANGMAN' $ KNOT |S READY FUR
 LEOFRANK

ATLANTA, May 10-Leo Nj. Frank willpay the death penalty for the murder of fourteen-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory employee. he today haing been sentenced to hang on bune 22 for this crime.
 Franks legal fight for life has taken place among the celebrated murder cases of recent years. Seven times since his conviction in August. 1913, the lower and supreme courts of the State of Georgia have refused to grant Frank a new trial or to set aside the verdict; three times the sentence of death was passed upon him and twice appeals were made to the supreme court of the United States. both being unsuccessful.
 The murder. which at first appeared to be a crime of only local importance, eventually developed into a case of nationwide interest. This was due in large part to the efforts of Frank and his friends to obtain for him a new trial or annulment of the yer diet. Added interest in Atlanta was given the case because of its having been brought into a municipal pollt- ical controversy, which involved at tacks on this city's police and detec- tive departments and wrangels among factions in the city administration.
 Soon after the trial ended the case came in for agitation which spread all over the country.

RUSSIANS STILL RETRIEVING
 GAL|C|A

LONDON, May 9-The German and Austrian official statements continue to claim great victory over the Rus sians in the battle in western Galicia. They report that the Russians are still retreatlng and that the Teutons are pressing the pursuit. On the other hand the Russian official state ment says the situation is not alarm. ing and that their forces are not in danger of losing the advantages they gained in the Carpathians. A similar discrepancy appears in the German statements of the developments along the westerin battle front. The Brit. ish and French statements are exact ly opposite to the German statements as far as the situation in Flanders is concerned.
