Marietta, Georgia, Aug. IT, Last night at eleven o'clock seventy five persons took part in the kidnapping of Leo Frank from the Georgia l part of the mob went to the home of Warden Smith, overpowered and bound him. the rest of the angered men went to the prison farm, covered the guards with revolvers, smashed in the doors of the prison in which Frank was confined, dragged him out and sped away in automobiles. Never before in the history of the state has excitement gripped the commonwealth IS that which prevailed last night md early today when the kidnapping of Leo Frank became known. Just before speeding away in automobiles with Frank, one of the mob said to me of the prison authorities, five will take you along if you want to go." While one of the masked men said to Supt. Burke whom they had bound, "Come go along with us we will cut you loose after we are through with Frank.' The superin tendent shook his head and was hur ridly left bound on the porch of the prison building. A negro trusty who had hidden in the Dormitory while Frank was being dragged from his cell slipped out after the mob had de- parted and freet Supt. Burk, who hastcned to the home of J. w. Satter field anCh told him of the Kidnapping If Frank. When Satterfield tried to telephone warden Smith, he found III wires cut. He then yan to the war lens house, where he found him tightly bound and after releasing farm house where he found the telc-
 hone lines stitl connected lie soon hal large posse out looking for the
 iaknappers After leaving the pris- on the kidnappess proceeded to il
 onely spot about two miles east of Marietta and just a short distance rom the birthplace of Mary Phagan the girl who he was accused of kill
 ng. He was found with his hands handcuffed in front of his body and
 the rope which was noosed about his neck had opened the wound inflicted by his fellow prisoner Green, who at tempted to kill him shortly after eX. governor Slatton had counted his sen tence to life imprisonment.
 He was found barefooted, the clothing torn, his hair in disheaveled condition and the blood fro mthe open wound in his neck streaming down his pris on clothing Being hanged so near the birthplace of Mary FLagen, it Is believed to be the work of her rel atives and close friends.

Tn an interview with the local cannervmen we learn that the supply of salmon has taken decided slumr in this vicinity. Owing to the recent heavy rains they have gore up the streams in great numbers and during the past week they have fell far short of their expectations. While the supply begins to get short about this season of the year, it was hardly eX- nected that it would take such sud- den drop. Recent information frc--' the Sound stated that the salmon run in that vicinity had been far short of what was expected. Less than one week ago information was recelved that the entire pack for the season had been only 125 thousand eases, of pink salmon, about half what It should have been The canneries on the Sound very seldom get the beneflt of the main run of fish before the 15 of August but in view of the fact that their pack less than one week a. po was about half that of other years it is good evidence that their pack this season will be extremely short.
