grand jury in connection with the
escape of Gerald Chapman, mail ban
dit, from the Atlanta federal prison,
probably will be placed on trial here
on April 49, if no hitch develops in
returning the man from New York,
where they were arrested after the

1t was statd here tonight by w. G.
Cornett, United States commission
er, that no witnesses so far had been
ordered from Athens to New York

When the two men are placed on
trial it is expected that the complete
story of the escape, said to have
been related to the officials by
woman here, will be made public.
Her identity and statements have
been closely guarded so far.
1t was apparent from the mac
tivity today that the next develop
ments in the Chapman case so far
as Athens is concerned will be the
arrival of Silverstein and Didato.
Agents of the department of JUS
tice have been on the trail of Chap
man since he disappeared from the
Athens hospital April 4, where he
was undergoing treatment for
wounds received in his recapture aft
er escaping from the penitentiary on
March 81, in company with Frank
Gray, another prisoner. The state
inent was made today by federal Of

nation that Chapman had planned
to sail for Paris on Easter Sunday,
but his recapture along with Gray
March IS prevented. Gray was taken
at the time Chapman was wounded,
and he was returned to prison.
