Gerhard Is kaiser's Spy-Calls
Charges Unfounded.

Berlin, via London, June 19.-Dr.
Anton Meyer-Gerhard, who sailed
from New York June on mission
to the German government from Count
Won Bernstorff, reached Berlin on
Wednesday.
He had a protracted conference
with Foreign Minister Won ,Tagow and
Minister Solf of the colonial office.
The report that DR.. MeyerGerhard
is in reality Dr. Alfred Meyer, chief
of the supply department of the Ger
man army, was denied authoritatively.
Washington, June 10. = Develop
ments which promise. to make the
case a sensation of some Importance
charges that DR.. Meyer-Gerhard, for
whom the state department obtained
safe passage to Germany, was in re-
ality DR.. Alfred Meyer, chief of the
supply division of the German army.
The state department received from
the German embassy at Cedarhurst,
L. l., an official denial of the charges,
and statement from the German am
bassador that the publication of the
charges was likely to operate against
settlement to the controversy between
this government and Germany.
In several other instances of late
where publicity was given to charges
against the German ambassador and
members of his staff the view of the
German government, now disclosed
for the first time, was that the charges
originated with detective agency
employed by Germany's enemies.
The state department gave out the
following statement, including the de-
NAL of the ambassador:
THE department of state has re-
ceived a telegram from the German
counselor, dated June 16, calling at
tention to articles appearing in yes
terday's papers in regard to an al
legged breach of confidence on the
part of the ambassador in sending a
secret German gun agent to Berlin in
place of Doctor Gerhard, the Red
Cross delegate. In reference to these
articles the ambassador states as fol-
lows:
1T. is unnecessary for me to as
sure you that the story circulated by
these articles Is untrue from begin
ming to end 1t contains a personal
attack upon the ambassador and his
delegate, DR.. Meyer-Gerhard, and is
likely at the same time to nullify the
sincere and earnest efforts of the
ambassador to bring about an un-

and Germany in the Lusitania ques-

LEO NJ FRANKS LIFE
Is SPARED BY GOVERNOR
Sentence Changed to Life Term
Prisoner Rushed to Convict Farm
During Night.

Atlanta, Ca, June 21-The sentence
of Leo M. Frank, condemned to die for
the murder of Mary Phagan on Memo
rial day two years ago, was committed
by Gov. John M. Slaton to life i'm
prisonment.
The prisoner was at once taken out
of the jail, under guard of Sheriff
Mangum and a number of his deputies,
and carried to the Terminal station.
He was placed on Central of Georgia
train for Milledgeville, where Frank
will at once begin serving life SEN
tence.
The decision of the governor came
as complete surprise to many in the
capital of the state. Governor Slaton
reached his decision Sunday morning
and, except for few of his most con-
fidentiaI friends to whom he confided,
early Monday. Feeling ali over Geor-
gia was at such high tension that 1t
was deemed advisable to have the pris-
oner safely landed at the state prison
before giving out the news.
The arrangements for removing
Frank from the Fulton county Jail we're
made with the utmost secrecy. Not
even the newspaper men who were
keeping close vigil around the jail
knew when or how the prisoner left
The sheriff with his deputies guarding
the condemned man left the jail short
ly after ten o'clock Sunday night and
proceeded to the Terminal station,
where thickets were secured and the
party boarded the train which pulled
out two minutes after midnight
Two policemen and several of the
railroad station employees recognized
Frank, and the news then began to-
spread. But before the general pub
lie in Atlanta knew of the action of
the governor or the removal Of the
prisoner, Frank was well on his way
to the state prison, and the sheriff
and his deputies had returned to their
homes.
The prison farm is two miles north
of Milledgeville. 1t is triple guarded.
The prisoners are kept during the
night In stone building under strong
guard at all times.
