Pencil Factory.

ATLANTA. Ga. June 12,--Arguments
for and against Leo NJ. Franks app1i-
cation for communication of his death
sentence were made at hearing before
Gov. Slaton here today. An adjourn
ment was taken until Monday to allow
Solicitor Dorsey time to prepare a
brief and to present his oral argument
against the application. Franks coun-
sci also will be heard in reply.
Joseph NJ. Brown. who was Governor
of Georgia when Frank was arrested
for the murder of Mary PhaRan. was
the principal speaker In opposition to
clemency. He told of his plans to pro
tect Frank when he heard rumors that
mob would attack the jail These
rumors. he said later. proved to have
been without foundation. Mr. Brown
protested against any overturning o1
the verdicts and judgment Of Georgia
jur1es and courts 'on petitions of per
sons outside the state"
Former Governor Opposes Petition.
In closing. he declared:
III your excellency wishes to invoke
lynch law-if you wish to weaken, il
not destroy. trial by jury In this state
you can do it by reversing all the
courts decisions in the present case"
William NJ. Howard. in his opening
argument for Frank, said the condemn
ed man would rely on the record of the
case to convince the governor Of his in
nocence. Gov Slaton put many ques-
tions to Mr. Howard concerning mate
rial circumstances brought out at the
trial. Among these were questions as
to where, in the pencil factory, Mary
Phagan was killed; how her body was
taken to the basement and what evil
dence there was of assault prior to the
murder. The governor said he wanted
to ascertain how the testimony OF
James Conley, negro, one of the
states principal witnesses, harmonizeC
with that of other witnesses for the
state and defense.

posed to Arbitrate Differences
With Companies.

CHICAGO, June 12.-Mayor William
Hale Thompson apparently made little
progress today in his efforts to avert
the threatened strike of employees of
the street car and elevated companies.

ployes unions and had one meeting
with the officials of the traction line.
The employees declined to submit to
arbitration and insisted upon their
original demand for an increase in
wages. The street car officials offered to
arbitrate the dispute. and asked that
no strike be called until meeting of
the board of directors was held Mon
day to pass on the question.
