GEORGIA'S EXECUTIVE WHO BRAVED PUBLIC WRATH FOR SAKE OF 'DUTY AND MAN HE SAVED. CONVICT AT PRISON FARM fherifr by Silent Move in Xight Kludes Crowd Convicted Man, in Haven of Jail, Again Asserts His Innocence. Cantinued From First Page.) to life imprisonment early today by Oovernor Slaton, began serving his term at the state prison farm in Mil ledgeville. a few hours later. Ha will be known as "Convict No. 965." Secret Trip Mode. Officials secretly took Frank by train end automobile from the Atlanta jail to Milledgeville and soon afterward Governor Slaton issued a long state ment giving his reasons for commuting the sentence, which was to have been executed tomorrow. Frank was delivered at the state prison at 4:30 o'clock this morning. When it became known in Atlanta, crowds began to gather on downtown corners. Within three hours their dem onstrations had resulted in calling out two-thirds of the police force, and an order followed closing all near-beer saloons and clubs where liquor could be obtained. Doubters Visit Jail. About noon a crowd estimated at 2500 gathered on the capitol grounds and listened to several speakers. Most of this throng later took charge of the hall of the House of Representatives, where several speakers said they doubted Frank had been removed from Atlanta, A committee of five was selected to visit the jail. They reported that Frank was not there. Then Sheriff Mangum, who, with deputies, took the prisoner to Milledgeville, assured the crowd he had delivered Frank at the prison. The throng which packed the floor and gal leries then marched to the center of the business section and later went to the City Hall. As this had been the scene of a demonstration early in the day the police took stern measures. Soon the list of arrests had increased to 10, all charged with failure to "move on." Mounted officers rode in circles in the crowd and the demonstraters grad ually dispersed. Early tonight the throngs on the street appeared quiet. At Marietta, 20 miles away, the former home of Mary Phagan, Gover nor Slaton was hanged in effigy. An inscription on the dummy read, "John Slaton, Georgia's Traitor Governor." The Governor went fully into details of why he commuted the sentence in his 15.000-word statement. He said his decision "may mean that I must live in obscurity the rest of my days, but I would rather be plowing in a field than to feel for the rest of my life than T had that man's blood on my hands." Frank Ncrrou on Train. Frank did not know until a few minutes before he started on the ride to Milledgeville that he was to leave his cell last , night. His heavy, dis tinctive eyeglasses were removed, he wore a slouch hat and the few per sons at the railway station did not recognize the famous prisoner. How ever, his identity became known when the train reached Griffin, and at Macon he was reported to be very nervous, ' needing the support of Sheriff Mangum when he was transferred from the rail way coach to an automobile. At the prison today, nevertheless, Frank had regained the outward calm that had marked his two-year fight for life. He again protested his innocence, expressed gratitude to Gov ernor Slaton and said that he had intuitively believed he would at least get a commutation of sentence. Governor Reviews Crime. In his statement exhaustively ex plaining his reasons for commuting Frank's sentence. Governor Slaton re viewed the circumstances surrounding the murder of Mary Phagan in the Na tional Pencil factory here on April 26, 1913, the conviction of Frank and his appeals for clemency. Continuing, the statement reads: "The murder was a most heinous one and the offender deserves the punish ment of death. The only question is as to the identity of the criminal. The responsibility is upon the people of Georgia to protect the lives of her citi zens and to maintain the dignity of her laws, and if the choice must be made between the approbation of citizens of other states and the enforcement of our laws against offenders, we must choose the latter alternative. "It is charged that the court and jury were terrorized by a mob and that the jury were coerced into their verdict. When Frank was indicted and the air was filled with rumors as to the mur der and mutilation of the girl, there was intense feeling and to such an ex tent that my predecessor, Governor Brown, stated in argument before me that he had the militia ready to pro tect the defendant if any, attack was made. . . . Some weeks later the defendant was put on trial." The Governor then referred to Geor gia s laws relatinir to chancre of venue declaring these provisions most broadi in Denalf or the defendant to insure fair trial. Frank, he said, went to trial without asking a change of venue and submitted his case to a jury that was acceptable to Sim. "Luring the progress of the trial.' the statement continues, "after evidence had been Introduced laying the crime with many offensive details upon Frank, the feeling against him became Intense. ... If the audience in the courtroom manifested their deep re sentment toward Frank, it was largely by this evidence of feeling beyond the court's power to correct. It would be difficult for an appellate court or a trial court to grant a new trial in such a long case because the audience In the courtroom on a few occasions indicated their sympathy. . . . "The jury found the defendant guilty and with the exception of the demon stration outside the courtroom there was no disorder. Nothing was done which the courts could correct through legal machinery." The Governor pointed out that the United States Supreme Court had sustained this ruling. He declared the charge against the State of Georgia of racial prejudice was unfair. He then reviewed the evidence. He asserted the state proved that Frank was in bis office at the factory "a little after 12 o'clock the day of the murder and that he admitted paying Mary Phagan wages due her. So far as known, he says, Frank was the last person who saw her alive. Other facts enumerated by the Governor as to . him, the more important of those shown by the state were: That Frank at 4 o'clock the after noon of the murder allowed the negro watchman. Newt Lee, to leave the factory for two hours; that the same evening Frank called Lee on the tele phone and that Lee found the double inner doors locked, all of which things he had never done before; that a cord iter ' .

GOVERNOR JOHN SLATOX (TOP) AND LEO FRANK.. similar to that with which the girl was strangled was found in quantities on the metal room floor, and in less quantities in the basement, where the body was discovered. He also included the testimony of Miss Monteen Stover, that when she was In Frank's office, about the time the state contended Frank and the Phagan girl were in the metal room, Frank was not in his office, although be had declared he had not left the office. Conley's Story Retold. "The most startling and spectacular testimony in the case was that given by a negro, Jim Conley, who finished in the chain gang," the statement says. The Governor then referred to the "murder notes," found beside the body, which Conley finally admitted he had written at Frank's dictation. "Conley claimed Frank asked him to come to the factory on Saturday and" watch for him as he had don:, which he explained, meant that Frank expected to meet some woman. The Governor says: "Conley occupied a dark place beside the elevator behind some boxes. Con ley mentioned several male and female employes who went up the steps to the second floor, where Frank's office was. He said Mary Phagan went up the stairs, that in a few minutes he heard footsteps going toward the metal room; that he heard a scream and then dozed. In a few minutes Frank stamped and Conley locked the door and then Frank whistled and Conley unlocked the door and went upstairs. He said Frank was shivering and trembling and told him he made ad vances to the girl and she repulsed him and he struck her too hard and she fell and hit her head against some thing and he did not know how badly she was hurt. . . . Conley said he found the girl in the metal room with a cloth tied about the neck, as though to catch blood, although there was no blood at the place. According to Conley s story, Frank told him to get a piece of cloth and wrap the body in it, and Conley got a piece of bedticking and tied up the body, carried it to near the dressing room, dropped it, then called on Frank to assist him. He said that he and Frank took the body to the basement in the elevator; that they rolled the body out of the cloth, then went to Frank's office; that Emma Clark and Corintha Hall came into tne orrice and Frank put him in the wardrobe and after they left that Frank dictated the murder notes." The statement then points out alleged inconsistencies in Conley's story and mentions several contradictions in his story as related in various affidavits. Among them, he said, were evidence that the elevator had not been used Saturday afternoon; that Frank could not have carried the girl down the hatchway, while Conley, a powerful negro, could have done so; that no bed ticking ever had. been seen in the fac tory; that it was agreed the murder could not have, been committed before 12:05 P. M.. and yet Conley had Kmma Clark and Corintha Hall In Frank's office after the body had been disposed of. while unimpeached testimony showed that they reached the factory at 11:35 and left at 11:45 A. M." Governor Sees Duty. In conclusion, the Governor said: "In any event the performance of my duty under the constitution is a matter of my conscience. The respon sibility rests where the power is re posed. Judge Roan, with that . awful sense of responsibility which probably came ovei him as he .bought of that judge before whom he would shortly appear, calls to me from another world to request that I do that which he should have done. "I can endure misconstruction, abuse and condemnation, but I cannot stand the constant companionship of an ac cusing conscience which would remind me in every thought that I, as Gov ernor of Georgia, failed to do what I thought to be right. "There is a territory "beyond a rea sonable doubt and absolute certainty,' for which the law provides in allowing life imprisonment instead of execution. This case has been marked by doubt. The trial Judge doubted. Two Judges of the United States Supreme Court doubted. One of the three Prison Com missioners doubted. "In my judgment, by granting a com mutation in this case I am sustaining the jury, the Judge and the appellate tribunals and at the same time am discharging that duty which is placed upon me by the state constitution. Frank'i Prosecutor Disagrees. Solicitor-General Dorsey, who prose cuted Frank, issued a statement to night, in which he declared "the action of Governor Slaton. nullifying the judg ments of the state and Federal courts and overriding the recommendations of the State Board of Pardons was un precedented." He added that no de fendants in his recollection had had the benefit of more appeals to both the state and Federal courts. "I cannot find in the record of the Frank case, or in the Governor's lengthy statement of attempted justi fication, one reason why the Governor should interfere with the judgment of the courts in the case," said the so licitor.

Y., June 2L Henry Siegel, former owner of department stores and banker of New York, con victed last November of a misdemeanor and sentenced to ten months" imprison ment and to pay a fine of $1000, unless he made restitution to his creditors, started for Rochester today to enter the Monroe County Penitentiary to be gin his sentence. At his hearing before Justice Clark this morning Siegel waived stay of execution of sentence and Sheriff Root started with the prisoner for Rochester. The hearing, which was postponed last Monday at Siegers request, lasted only three minutes. Siegel's decision to accept sentence was reached. It is said, when he and his counsel became convinced that his offer to make immediate payment of $150,000 to the depositors would be op posed by the prosecution in view of the fact that it was not satisfactory to majority of the stockholders. Siegel said after the court proceed lngs that he made diligent efforts to raise funds and engage in business, but that "hard times had been agains him. He declared that after he had served his sentence he was determined to re-engage in business and pay all his creditors in full. BT ANNE SHANNON MONROE. SAN FRANCISCO, June 21. (Spe cial.)
