STEPFATHER THANKS

was nearly broken up when the news
was flashed there. The fans arose in
their seats and cheered as they rarely
had cheered an exciting play. They
hardly had subsided when speedy motor
trucks flooded the grounds with tho
extras and the game was held up again.
Within few minutes every city in
the State knew that Leo Frank had
been found guilty Of the murder of
Mary Phagan Between reels, the ver-
dict was announced at the moving pic
ture houses. Matinee performances at
the theatres were interrupted for the
| verdict to be read to the audiences.
The news was spread in every mag

| homes, in the stores. on the streets and
| in the clubs.
In his cell at the Tower, Frank broke
| his long silence to the newspaper men,
but only to reaffirm that he knew moth

months ago that I had no knowledge of

lost no opportunity to repeat again and
again to the jury the suggestion Of
Franks degeneracy. BY insinuation he
pictured scenes In which the defendant
was supposed by the State to have
taken part In his ONCE in the pencil
factory. He goaded to a fury the
mother of Leo Frank until she arose In
the courtroom and denounced him II

currence he did not show 1t. He con-
tinued examining the witness along the
same line, contesting every step of the
way MS right to conduct the exanhna-
ton in that manner.
Tho only attention he paid TO the
demonstration OF the mother was to
ask the next morning that the wife and
mother of the defendant be excluded
from the courtroom, as there doubtless
would be other unpleasant testimony Of
the same nature

STIRRED FIGHTING BLOOD
OF THE PROSECUTOR.

Dorsey evidently learned that the peo-
pie already were commiserating with
him in his foreordained disaster. Or
1t may have been his previous defeats
that stirred up his fighting blood. He
worked on this case as he never had
worked on one before. He took the
supervision of the investigation largely
out Of the hands of the city police de-
partment, and had as many detectives
as he desired detailed to work under his
instructions
He largely put aside other court bust
mess. He received no callers except
for the briefest space of time When
he entered the courtroom to present his
case he had every one of its innumer-
able phases and ramifications thorough
ly in mind. He was prepared to fight
every point. He was not disposed to
yield a thing. He believed Frank was
guilty OF the murder Of Mary Phagars-
few have questioned his sincerity--and
he was determined to convict the de-
fendant in spite of his brilliant array
OF counsel and In spite of everything
else.
BY the time Conley had finished his
true story OF the crime, or his wonder
full piece of fction-depending on
whether one believes in the innocence
or guilt of Frank-the lawyers for the
factory superintendent were aware that
they were not opposed by the same
Dorsey who lost his other big cases.
Those who had desired so much and
expected so little Of the solicitor began
to cherish flicker of hope in their
breasts. He might, after all, put UP
an interesting fight against the pair of
unbeaten and supposedly unbeatable
lawyers.
Alarmed themselves at the steady

SPECTATORS ANGRY
AT EXCLUSION.

Frank had been taken back to the
Tower at the close of the charge to the
jury, and it became known about this
time that Judge Roam, noting that the
throngs outside were growing in size,
had become apprehensve Of their tenn
per in the event of verdict of acquittal
and had called Franks attorneys to
him and urged them to waive not only
the presence Of their client in court at
the reception Of the verdict, but their
own presence as well. They acceded to
the judges suggestion and thus it was
that the trial judge was responsible for
a waiver which since has been used by
new attorneys for Frank as the basis
OF a motion to set aside the verdict on
the ground that Frank was deprived Of
a constitutional right
An excited murmur ran about the
courtroom when it was whispered about
mid-afternoon that the jury had come
to its verdict. Judge Roam was notified
and Solicitor Dorsey was called. Judge
Roam looked into the courtroom jammed
with people and then called Sheriff
Mangum to ask II he was prepared to
take care of any demonstration. The
sheriff said that he was, but after a
short consultation it was decided to
clear the courtroom except for the news
paper reporters and members of the
particularly since the prisoner was alb
sent.
The spectators took their exclusion in
i'll grace. One gray-haired man, of
some prominence in Atlanta, shouted
out his opinion of Frank as he made his
way toward the door and was held by
a deputy sheriff. but was later released
The reporters in the courtroom had a
set of signals arranged TO pass the ver-
dict to their partners on the outside the
instant the words came from the fore
mans lips. Making trebly sure Of not
missing a fraction of a second, one
newspaper had telephone installed un-
der the very bench of the presiding
Judge, another one in an adjoining room
and a third one pre-empted in a nearby
building where a reporter was stationed
to be signaled from the courtroom win
dow.
The jury was led in. The verdict
could have been guessed from the
solemnity of their expressions. They
took their places in the jury box and re-
manned standing. 1t was dramatic
moment. The foreman replied TO the
usual questions Of the judge, and then
was asked to read the verdict.

fore the reporters hats shot into the
air. This was the signal agreed upon
hats, guilty; handkerchiefs, not guilty
but the judge was startled for the in
stant, thinking it was a demonstration.

that it appeared the news must have
spread by magic to the waiting mass Of

Saturday, August %, and Monday
August 25, were the two last days OF
the Frank trial. Except for the cal
amitous days OF the civil war and the
moro recent days when negroes were
shot down on the streets in a bloody
race riot, Atlanta probably never had
known period of more suspense and
apprehension.
Saturday was notable chiefly for what
might have happened; Monday for what
did happen.
Dorsey. installed as Georgia's popu-
lar and spectacular hero, was expected
TO end his address to the jury on Sat
urday, having begun it on Friday af-
ternoon. Early Saturday morning, be-
hind mules, behind horses, and in rail-

CONDITIONS AT TRIAL
ANTAGONISTIC TO FRANK.

In the midst Of the hottest weather
of the year, Franks trial began on
July 2S Court was held on the first
floor Of an old, poorly ventilated brick
building at Hunter and Pryor streets.
With the Southern sun beating down on
the court house there was no comfort
inside.
The court waived its dignity so far
as to permit the lawyers and newspaper
men to shed their coats. The windows
were opened to the limit and, while this
afforded an occasional breath of sresh
air, it served also to let the sounds from
the street into the courtroom.

DORSEY'S SPEECH
A MASTERPIECE.

Then came his speech TO the jury.
There never was an address like it in
Southern court annals. II was Dorsey's
masterpiece. He began late on a Friday
afternoon and he did not conclude until
the succeeding Monday. 1t was the
longest address in a criminal case ever
given to a jury in Georgia. His audi
sncs was carried away on the torrent

JUDGE ROAM THREATENS
TO CLEAR THE COURT.

Attorney Arnold, who had protested
before against the disorder in the court
room, Indignantly called attention to
the outbreak Of applause that followed
the Courts ruling and moved for a
mistrial on the ground that the jurors,
who were in an adjoining room, could
have heard the demonstration. He also

The papers could not have provided
more acceptable reading. The eager
eyed purchasers read with manifest de-
light of the manner in which Solicitor
Dorsey was faying the young man sit
ting before him. AS partisan as they
were they hardly could have desired a
more thoroughgoing attack on the pris-
oner. After half an hour another edi-
ton served up still more of the solic-
itors address, and II was Of a part with
the first insta alment- So ii was not a
bad -humored crowd that waited outside
for Dorsey to conclude and the jury to
do it's duty. Things were going their
way. Dorsey was making the effort
OF his life. If the jurors. when they
gathered to deliberate on their verdict,
did not think the way they-the crowd
thought, well, that was a matter that
could be attended to when the situation
arose.
Summarizing quickly the testimony
which he declared sustained Jim Con-
ley's story Of the murder, Dorsey fin
ished his record-breaking argument with
demand that the jurors bring back
verdict of guilty against the defen-
dant for the strangling of the pretty
factory girl.
Judge Roam delivered his charge to
impressive, since the judge, as he after
ward acknowledged, felt more keenly
than any other case he ever tried the
responsibility resting upon him. The
twelve jurors. headed and fanked by
deputy sheriffs, filed out of the court
room and passed through a lane made
in the crowd for them to the cafe on
the other side of the street.

HEARD ADDRESS
FROM THE STREET..

Through the open windows those out
side could catch snatches OF Dorsey's
scathing address. They could tell that
the fervor OF his arraignment was nor
abating. and that pleased them well.
They confirmed that which their ears
had assured them, when, within a short
time after the solicitor began the third
day Of his argument, newsboys came
pouring down the streets shouting the
first extras of the morning.

FARMERS MAKING MONEY.
Norcatur Reports Debts Paid-Auto:

Norcatur, Kan. May 25.-Prosperity
in this part of Kansas is being felt
by all classes of business. Farmers
who a year ago were in debt have
wiped out the debt, built homes,
bought new farm machinery, i'm
proved their farm property, banked
money and are buying automobiles
with the surplus cash. The automo-
bile statesmen here have been putting
out from five to ten new cars the past
few weeks, the great majority goin6
to the farmers. Buggy dealers have
sold new buggies and carriages in
great number, all of which is indica-
tive of the prosperity of the farmers
and people in this part of Kansas.
All auto and buggy sales are cash,
and but little credit business is being
done. The summer and fall prom

Epileptic Falls Face Down in Fit
Suffocation Causes Death.

Leavenwcrth, Kan, May 25.-With
his face imbedded in mud near the
Santa Fee railroad tracks at Shoemak-
er and Randolph, the body of Joseph
Oberforcher, "a years old, was found
early Saturday evening by Ernest
Goetting. Coroner Davis was called
and an investigation followed.
At first it was thought Oberforcher
had been pushed or had fallen from
the wagon bridge which passes over
the tracks at that point. But not a
mark could be found on his body to
indicate such a fall. 1t was ascer-
tanned that the young man had died
of suffocation.
