FRANKS WIFE SCOUTS
REPORT OF CONSPIRACY
Pays Tribute of Thanks to
Warden - Prisoners Condi-
tion Continues to Improve.

M1LLEDGEV1LLB, Ca, July 22.-Leo
NJ Frank rested comfortably last night
sleeping most of the time His tempera-
ture today was 100. and he took nourish-
ment with evident relish. Mrs Frank
is still at his bedside. When interviewed
his fellow prisoner, and the rumors that
1t was part of a conspiracy, Mrs. Frank
said:
81 cannot bring myself to believe there
has been conspiracy in this horrible at
tack on my husband. 1t has been init
mated that Green was encouraged to
make the attack by hope of reward, but
1 don't believe 1t. In my opinion Green
is insane, and the whole plot originated
in his own dlsordered brain"
do you feel that the prison authori-
ties have taken all the precautions with
In their power to protect your husband
since he has been inside the prison." Mrs.
Frank was asked.
Mrs. Franks reply was not delayed
and apparently she showed no hesitancy
in answering the question
1.-THE warden and other penitentiary
officials have been as conslderate of Leo
anu lllt NtlllDlb Sll hlll TIC lldS bttll uiluti
as they could possibly be-" she said.
Certainly they have shown me every
courtesy. I had no intention of asking
any special privileges for my husband,
and expected him to be treated the same
as any other prisoner. I can but at
tribute the attack upon him as being one
of those things that are liable to happen
az any time and place, even in the best
regulated prisons, where hundreds of men
are assembled together.
81 have absolutely no criticism to make
of the warden of the prison farm, and
feel that he has been doing everything
within his power to protect my husband u
What about the sentiment of tn,
people throughout the State?" Mrs
! Frank was asked.
81 believe the majority of the people
of Georgia, at least the thinking class
are beginning to realize that Leo could
not have been guilty of the crime OF
which he was convicted and that time
| will serve to clear him. He must live
to remove the stain from his name, and
in my heart 1 feel that God will let
him remain on earth that long"

Arsenal Wages to BE Investigated

A successful termination of the wage
scale complaint of the machinists at the
Frankford Arsenal promises to result
from a plan of Secretary of War Garri-
son. He proposes to have representa-
five of the army and a representative OF
the machinists make an investigation of
the complaint. These representatives will
ascertain the wages paid machinists in
private concerns throughout the city for
work similar to that performed at the
Arsenal, and wages at the Arsenal in
the future will, in part, be based on the
result Of this investigation.
