FRANK IS RESENTENCED
Execution Is Set for June 2 2 In
Atlanta.
ATLANTA, Ga., May 10. Leo M.
Frank today was resentenced to be
hanged on Tuesday, June 22, for the
murder of Mary Phagan.
When brought before Judge Hill to
be resentenced, Frank said:
"Again I reiterate that I am innocent
of the murder of Mary Phagan. I have
absolutely no guilty knowledge of that
tragic occurrence. The record of the
evidence conclusively proves this. No
appellate tribunal has ever passed on
this evidence. The only judge who has
ever heard it said that he had the most
serious doubts as to my guilt.
"My execution will not avenge Mary
Phagan's death. A life will have been
taken for a life, but the real culprit
will not have paid the penalty.
"My trust is in God, who knows that
my protestations of innocence are the
truth. At some future date the whole
mortal world will realize it."
Mrs. Frank, who sat at a table with
her husband's attorneys, bowed her
head upon her arms upon the table and
sobbed.
PARKER COUNSELS CALM
Permit Wilson to Act Cautiously, Is
19 04 Candidate's Advice.
NEW YOttK. May 10. Alton B.
Parker, Democratic candidate for the
Presidency in 1904, issued a statement
today which said:
"The attempt to persuade the public
what action the Lusltania disaster re
quires the President to take is unfair
to him and may work great injury to
us. lie alone must bear the heavy re
sponsibility of docislon.
"Why then do we not let him alone?
Why not give him time? There is cer
tainly no need for hurry. On the con
trary there is every reason for making
haste slowly.
"Have wo forgotten the Maine?
Cannot we see President McKinley,
standing with his back to tho wall in
the face of tho hoarse cry of angry
men demanding war and his refusal
to hurry? He saw his duty to the
people and performed it. True in the
end war came but not as a result of
passion and in the meantime the
sentiment of the world had come to out
side."

LUSITANIA WARNED,
REPLIES CHURCHILL
Directions as to Course to Be
Followed in War Zone Ac
knowledged by Captain.
FULL DETAILS WITHHELD
First Lord of Admiralty, Questioned
in Jfouse of Commons, Says Mer
chantmen Must Look After
Themselves at Sea.
LONDON. May 10. The First Lord
of the Admiralty, Winston Spencer
Churchill, announced in the House of
Commons today that Captain Turner,
of the Luistania, had acknowledged re
ceipt of messages from the Admiralty
giving him warning and directions for
the course he was to take.
"The Admiralty had general knowl
edge of the German warning issued in
America," Mr. Churchill declared, "and
from that knowledge and other infor
mation concerning submarine move
ments it sent warnings to the Lusi
tania and directions as to her course.
I think, however, it is not right to go
into that matter in detail, as it is go
ing to be a subject of Inquiry and it
might appear that I was endeavoring
to throwj blame on the captain of the
Lusitania in a matter which will be a
subject of full investigation.
Lord of Admiralty Questioned.
Continunig, Mr. Churchill said this
Investigation would be conducted by
Lord Mersey, assisted by skilled asses
sors, and that it would be opened with
out avoidable delay.
Mr. Churchill's remarks were drawn
by questions from Lord Charles Beres
ford and others asking fdr details as
to what speed the Lusitania was mak
ing when she was torpedoes; whether
there was a patrol boat in that locality;
whether all points where vessels arrive
and depart are now adequately pa
troled; what provisions were made in
the case of the Lusitania in view of
the warning issued in America; wheth
er Mr. Churchill was aware that pre
viously to last Friday German subma
rines had for some time been actively
at work; on the south coast of Ireland;
whether he was aware that the Ad
miralty had provided torpedo-boat de
stroyers and other vessels to meet on
the south coast of Ireland steamers
carrying horses from the United States
on government account to convoy them
to Liverpool, and finally, what ar
rangements, if any, were made to con
voy and protect the Lusitania.
Merchantmen Look After Selves.
Mr. Churchill, replying to further
questions, spoke as follows:
"The shocking exception of the Lu
sitania should not divert the attention
of the House of Commons and country
from tho fact that Great Britain's en
tire seaport trade has been carried on
without appreciative loss. The general
principle regarding the providing of
escort is that merchant traffio must
look after itself, subject to the general
arrangements of the Admiralty, and
there is no reason to suppose that this
principle is not entirely successful."
CREW HELD MURDERERS
(Continued From First Page.)
the men in charge of the German sub
marine were guilty of willful murder."
Ship's Bugler Llvermore testified that
the water-tight compartments were
closed, but that the explosion and the
force of the water must have burst
them open. He said that all the of
ficers were at their posts and that early
arrivals of the rescue craft would not
have saved the situation. Captain Tur
ner testified briefly. The coroner asked
him:
'You were aware threats had been
made that the ship would be tor
pedoed?" "We were, the captain replied.
"Was she armed?"
"No, sir."
Boats Swua- Oatward.
"What precautions did you take?"
"We had all the boats swung when
we came within the danger ?one, be
tween the passing of Fastnet and. the
time of the accident."
'Did you receive any special instruc
tions as to the voyage?"
"Yes, sir."
"Are you at liberty to tell us what
they were?"
No, Blr."

"Did you carry them out?"
"Yes, to the best of my ability."
"Tell us in your own words what
happened after passing Fastnet."
"The weather was clear." Captain
Turner answered. "We were going at
a speed of 18 knots. I was orPthe port
side and heard Second Officer Heftord
call out: 'Here's, a torpedo." I ran to
the other side and saw clearly the
wake of the torpedo. Smoke and steam
came up between the last two funnels.
There was a slight shock. Immediately
after the first explosion there was
another report, but that may possibly
have been Internal, '
Sympathy Given America.
"I at once gave the order to lower
the boats down to the rails, and I di
rected that women and children should
get into them.
"I also had all the bulkheads closed.
Between the time of passing Fastnet,
at about 1 o'clock, and of the tor
pedoing I saw ho sign whatever of any
submarines. There was some haze
along the Irish coast, and when we
were near Fastnet I slowed down to 16
knots an hour. I was In wireless com
munication with shore all the way
across."
Captain Turner, was asked whether
he had received any messages in re
gard to the presence of submarines off
the Irish coast. He replied in the af
firmative. Questioned regarding the
nature of the message, he replied:
"I respectfully refer you to the Ad
miralty for an answer."
Liner Vnable to Stop.
"I also gave orders to stop the ship,
but we could not stop. We found that
the engines -were out of commission.
It was not safe to lower boats until
the speed was off the vessel. As a
matter of fact, there was a perceptible
headway on her up to the time she
went down.
"When she was struck she listed
to starboard. I stood on the bridge
when she sank and the Lusitania went
down under me. She floated about
18 minutes after the torpedo struck
her. My watch stopped at 2:36. I
was picked up from among the wreck
age and afterward was brought aboard
a trawler.
"No warship was convoying us. I
saw no warship, and none was re
ported to me as having been seen.
At the time I was picked up I no
ticed bodies floating on the surface,
but saw no living persons."
"Eighteen knots was not the nor
mal speed of the Lusitania, was it?"
""At ordinary times." answered Cap
tain Turner, "she could make 25 knots,
but in war times her speed was re
duced to 21 knots. My reason for go
ing 18 knots was that I wanted to ar
rive at Liverpool bar without stopping
and within two or three hours of high
waters." ,
Doable Lookouts on Duty.
"Was there a lookout kept for sub
marines, having regard to previous
warnings?"
"Yes. we had double lookouts."
"Were you going a zig-zag course
at the moment the torpedoing took
place?" s
"No: it was bright weather and land
was clearly visible."
"Was it possible for a submarine to
approach without being seen?"
"Oh, yes; quite possible."
"Something has been said regarding
the impossibility of launching boats
on the port side."
"Yes." said Captain Turner, "owing
to the listing of the ship."
"Were your orders promptly carried
out?"
"Yes."
"Was there any panic on board?"
"No."
By the foreman of the jury:
"In the face1 of the warnings at New
York that the Lusitanla would be tor
pedoed, did you make any application
to the Admiralty for an escort?"
Captain Would Sail Aaratn.
"No. I left that to them. It is their
business, not mine. I simply had to
carry out my orders to go, and I would
do it again."
Captain Turner uttered the last
words of this reply with great em
phasis. "Was the course of the vessel altered
after the torpedoes struck her?"
"I headed straight for land, but it
was useless. Previous to this the
watertight bulkheads were closed. I
suppose the explosion forced them
open. I don't know the exact extent
to which the Lusitania was dam
aged." "Were the passengers supplied with
life belts?"
"Yes."
, "Was any warning given you before
you were torpedoed?"
"None whatever. It was suddenly
done and finished."
"If there had been a patrol boat
about, might it have been of assist
ance?" ""It might, but it is one of those
things one never knows."
With regard to the threats against
his ship. Captain Tumor said he saw
nothing except what appeared in the
New York papers that day before the
Lusitania sailed. He never had heard
the passengers talking about the
threats, he said.
After physicians had testified that
the victims had met death through pro
