Raise for tho Governor's action came
from Independents.

GOVERNOR'S STATEMENT.
Governor Slaton, In his statement after
reviewing the case from tho daj Mary
Phagan was murdered, said:
"This case has been tho subject of
extensive comment through the newspa
pers In the United States, and has oc
casioned tho transmission of more than
100,000 letters from various States re
questing clemency. Many communica
tions have been received from citizens of
this State, advocating or opposing inter
ference with the sentence of the court.
"Many newspapers and multitudes of
people have attacked the Slate of
Georgia because of the conviction of Leo
M. Frank nnd have declared the con
viction to have been through the domina
tion or a mob and with no evidence to
support the verdict. This opinion had
been formed to a great extent by those
who have not read the evidence and who
are unacquainted with the Judicial pro
cedure In our State.
"The murder committed was a most
heinous one. A young girl was strangled
to death by a cord tied around her throat
and the offender deserves the punishment
of death. The only question Is as to tho
Identity of the criminal.
"The responsibility Is on the people of
Georgia to protect the lives of her citi
zens and to maintain the dignity of her
laws, and If tho choice must be made bo
twecn tho approbation of citizens of other
States and tho enforcement of our laws
against offenders, whether powerful or
weak, wo must choose tho latter alterna
tive. "When Frank was Indicted and the air
was filled with rumors, there was Intense
feeling and to such an extent, my prede
cessor, ' Governor Brown, stated In nn
argument before me, that ho had the
mllltla ready to protect the defendant In
tho event any attack was made.
"During the progress of tho trial, feel
ing against Frank was Intense.
COURT COULDN'T QUIET CROWD.
"If tho audience In the courtroom mani
fested their deep resentment toward
Frank, It was largely the ovldenco of
feeling beyond the power of a court to
correct. It would bo difficult anywhere
for an Appellate Court, or oven a Trial
Court, to grant a new trial In a case
which occupied 30 days, because the audl
enco In the courtroom upon a few occa
sions Indicated their sympathies. How
over, the deep feeling against Frank,
which developed In the progress of tho
evidence, was In the atmosphere, and, re
gardless of tho commission of those acts
of which tho court would take cognizance,
tho fooling of tho public was strong.
"Judge Roan, In the exerclso of precau
tion, requested both counsel and defend
ant bo absent when tho verdict was ren
dered tn order to avoid any possible dem
onstration In tho event of acquittal.
"The Jury found the defendant guilty
and with the exception of demonstrations
outside the Courtroom, there was no dis
order. "Hence It will be seen that nothing was
done which courts of any State could
correct through legal machinery. A court
must have something more than an at
mosphere with which to deal, and especi
ally when that atmosphere has been
created through tho proceses of evidence
In disclosing a horrible crime.
"Our Supreme Court, after carefully
considering tho evidence as to demonstra
tions made by spectators, declared them
without merit, and In this regard the or
derly processes of our tribunals are not
subject to criticism.
CONLEY'S ADMISSION.
"The admission of Conley that he wrote
the notes found at the body of the dead
girl, together with the part he admitted
he played In tho transaction, combined
with his history and his explanation as
to both the writing of the notes and tho
removal of the body to the basement,
made the entire case revolve about him.
Did Conley speak the truth?
"One fact In the case, and that of most
Important forco In arriving at tho truth,
contradicts Conley's testimony. It Is dis
agreeable to refer to It, but delicacy must
yield to necessity when human life is at
stake.
"The mystery in the case Is the ques
tion as to how Mary Phagan'a body got
In the basement. Conley testified that
he and Frank took the body down to
the basement In the elevator on tho aft
ernoon of April M, 1S13, ond leaves for
Inference that Frank removed the body
138 feet toward the end of the building,
where the body was found at a spot near
the back door, which led out toward
the street In 'the rear. Conley swears
that he did not return to the basement,
but went back up in the elevator, while
Frank went baok on the ladder, consti
tuting tho only two methods of Ingress
and egress to the basement, excepting
through the uacK aoor. xni wm uo
tween 1 -and 2 o'clock on the afternoon
of April M. , , . ...
"Frank Is delicate in physique, while
Conley Is strong and powerful. Conley's
place for watching, as declared by hlrrf
self, was In tho gloom a few feet from
the hatchway leading by way of the lad
der to the basement. Also he was with
in a few feet of the elevator shaft on
tho first floor.
"Mary Phagan, coming downstairs, was
compelled to pass within a few feet of
Conley, who was Invisible to her. and
within a few feet of the hatchway. Frank
could not have carried her down the
hatchway. Conley might have done so
with difficulty. If the elevator shaft was
not used by Conley and Frank In taking
the bpdy to the basement, then the ex
planation of Conley. who admittedly
wfote the notes found by the body, can
not be accepted.
"Conley says after the deed was com-

said: 'Here comes Emma Clark and
Corlnthla Hall,' and put Conley In the
wardrobe.
"Tho uncontradicted evidence of these
two witnesses was that they reached the
factory at 11:33 a. m., and left It nt 11:15
a. m.. and therefore this statement of
Conley can hardly be accepted."
Of tho question of blood, the Governor
said:
"It Is curious during tho courso of tho
story that, while Frank explained to
Conley about striking the girl when sho
refused htm and Conley found tho girl
strangled with a cord, ho did not ask
Frank anything about the use of cord
and that subject was not mentioned.
"Tho wound on Mary Phagan was near
tho top of the head and reached the
skull. Wounds of that character bleed
freely At tho place Conley Bays ho found
tho body there was no blood.
FRANK COULDN'T STRIKE BLOW.
"Ono Barrett says on Monday morning
he found six or seven strands of hair on
the lathe with which ho worked. Tho Im
plication Is that It was Mary Phagan'a
hair and that she rcceiveo. a cui uy lin
ing her head struck at this place. It was
strange, however, that there was a total
ubsenco of blood and that Frank, who
was delicate, could have hit a blow of
such violence
"Barrett and othors said they thought
they saw blood near the dressing room,
to which place Conley said he dragged
tho body.
"All this boro upon tho question wheth
er the murder took place In the metal
room, which Is on tne same i
Frank's office.
On May 21, 1913, Conley made for the
detectives an affidavit In which ho says
that on the Friday before the Saturday
on which tho murder was committed
Frank asked him If he could write. This
would appear Btrange, because Frank
well knew ho could write, but, according
to Conley's affidavit, Frank dictated to
him practically the contents of one of
the notes found by the body of Mary
Phagan. Frank then, according to Con
Icys" statement, took a scratch pad and
wrote on that himself; then gave Conley
a box of cigarettes In which was some
money and said to him he had some
wealthy relatives In Brooklyn, and 'why
should I hang?"
"This would have made Frank guilty
of the contemplated murder on Friday
which was consummated Saturday, and
which was so unreasonable It could not
be accepted.

OF PENN AUTHORITIES
Twelve Associates of De
posed Wharton School In
structor Instruct Dean
McCrea to Write Inter
rogative Letter to Trus
tees. TweWe members of the Wharton School
faculty of the University of Pennsyl
vania at a group meeting today requested
Dean Roswell C. McCrea to write a letter
to the University trustees asking for an
explanation of their refusal to reappoint
oco neanng, the recently dismissed
assistant professor of economics. In their
department of the University of Penn
sylvania. Among those present when the action
was taken were Dean McCrea, and Pro
fessors V. W. Plerson, Clyde L. King,
James T. ToUng, G. O. Huebner, S. S,
Huebner, Leo S. Rowo and E. R. Johnson
It was also learnod at the University
todoy that a Joint committee of IB on
academic freedom, representing tho
American Sociological Association, tho
American Uconomlc Association and tho
Political Sclwice Association, would tako
up Doctor Nearlng's case, discuss tho
ethics Involved nnd determine whether
the trustees had a right to dismiss Doc
tor Nearlng at the time and In the
manner they did. Professor Robert C.
Brooks, of Swarthmore, Is tho president
of this committee.
The Baptist Ministers came out today
for a hearing for the deposed Instructor
at their weekly meeting, held this morn
ing In the First Baptist Church, at 17th
and Sansom streets.
After considerable discussion tho fol
lowing resolution was passed. Introduced
by the Rev. TV. Quay Roswell, pastor of
the Fifth Baptist Church, ISth and
Spring Oarden streets.
"Resolved, That wo express our regret
over the action of the trustees of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania In dismissing Dr.
Scott Nearlng from the faculty of the
"Wharton Schoot on grounds they have
not disclosed to the public. Their silence
concerning tho reason for his dismissal
wo bellovo to be n blow to freo Bpoech.
Our action In this protest wo do not
wish to be considered an approval of the
doctrines advocated by Professor Near
lng or an attempt to pass Judgment on
his case. But wo believe that tho public
has a right to know the causes that led
up to his dismissal.
Tho Rev. Dr. John Gordon, dean emer
itus of tho divinity school of Temple Uni
versity, nnd the Rev. W. D. Shumway,
tho present dean, both opposed tho' reso
lution. Tho latter tried to have the reso
lution tabled until the first autumn
meeting of the ministers, but was voted
down. Tho Rev. J. M. P. Chlldrey, of
Haddonflcld, N. J., said the dismissal of
Doctor Nearlng was a blow nt every
Baptist minister.
DIspatchcB from all parts of tho coun
try today Indicate that the Nearlng mat
ter. Instead of losing Interest. Is to be
made the basis of the greatest fight for
the freedom of teachers In tho history
of tho country.
Alumni, especially here and In New
Tork, are rallying behind Harrison S.
Morris, executor of the estate of Joseph
Wharton, who has started a campaign of
publicity designed to forco tho trustees
to give a "full and free" explanation of
why Nearlng was dropped.
A New York newspaper today quotes "a
prominent Philadelphia alumnus" as say
ing that Joseph R Grundy,, president of
the Pennsylvania Manufacturers' Asso
ciation, Indorsed tho demands upon the
trustees that Nearlng be ousted. He
added: -
"I havo even heard It said that Mr.
Grundy sought to have Governor Brum
baugh cut the University appropriation
as a retaliation for tho continued reten
tion of Doctor Nearlng on the faculty "
Scores of letters are being sent to
Provost Edgar Fahs Smith today by
alumni from all parts of tho country. In
New York the American Association of
University Professors, formed at the be
ginning of this year to combat a tendency
to ultra-conservatism In the universities,
will take up the Nearlng case.
Prof. John Dewey, of Columbia, Is pres
ident of the association. Ho has an ad
visory council of 30 professors. There are
more than 1000 professors In tho organ
ization, which In some respects might be
looked on as a union.

FREIGHTER DOCKS HERE AFTER
CREW TOOK TO BOATS IN GALE
Men Vftnt Ashore and Encamped In
Desert Region.
Among tho happiest men In Philadel
phia today aro tho captain and crew of
tho freighter "Panama Transport." which
docked nt Port Richmond this morning
after weathering a gale In tho Straits
of Magellan, which Captain William D.
Owen said was the worst ho has experi
enced In his long sea career. The gale
was bo terrific, ho said, that he and the
ST members of his crew took to the boats
off ono of tho remotest regions of
South America, after giving up hope of
seeing civilization again for many years
at least.
Tho ship, which Is of S000 tons, left
Puenta Arenas, a British port In the
Straits of Magellan, early In May.
When the gale struck her as she was
nearlng tho Paclflo coast the ship was
driven back Into the Straits and entirely
out of her course.
Cnptnln Owen sought refuge In a bay,
but to reach It he had to guide his ship
between two 1000-foot cliffs, tho entrance
being only nbout 160 feet wide. This bay
gave little shelter, and tho vessel then
was steered Into another treacherous bay,
where the crew took to the boats nnd
established a camp In an unknown de
serted region. After several days, the
galo subsided The "Panama Transport"
then steamed up the western coast and
camo through the Panama Canal.

GOVERNOR'S VETO AX
HEWS CLEAR PATHFOR
MAYORALTY CAMPAIGN
Independents Take Courage
at Executive Disapproval
of McNichol Bills Sti
fling Rights in Connec
tion With Primaries.
Independent political leaders In Phila
delphia today began to marshal their
forces In preparation for the municipal
campaign, following the announcement
that Governor Brumbaugh had vetoed
the McNichol election bills passed by the
last Legislature, which was designed by
tho Republican Organisation to stifle an
Independent movement In the Plhaledphla
mayoralty contest.
The campaign has been virtually at a
standstill, pending the action of the Gov
ernor on the election bills. Now that
they have been disposed of finally, plans
will be made, candidates will come to
the front and the campaign will be
started actively and In the open, not onlr
by the Independents, but by the Republi
can organisation as well.
The McNichol election bills were vetoed
by the Oovernor on Saturday, but an
nouncement ot his action was withheld
until last night.
The Oovernor signed five political and
election bills, but they wer all of minor
Importance and none of them were part
Sylma?

We've made pretty
strong claims for Sylmar
Olive Oil. Perhaps when
you've read some of them,
you've said "That's draw
ing a long bow."
But here is what the
judges of the great Inter
national Panama Exposi
tion at San Francisco say
about it:

Philadelphia, Pa.
Sylmar Olive Oil took
Grand Prize at the. San
Francisco Exposition today.
Los Angeles Olive Growers Assn.
This award, which again
attests the wonderful merit
of Sylmar, didn't surprise
us a bit. We have always
known the superiority of
Sylmar and we wouldn't
have told our customers
that it was superior unless
we knew.
Sylmar is the first press
ing of choicest California
olives. Every stage in its
preparation is cared for
with the purpose to give
you the finest olive oil that
can be produced. If you
want the olive oil of most
delightful appearance, most
delicate flavor, most abso
lute purity then try Syl
mar. Whether for table ,use
or taken to build up a run
down system, it has the
highest excellence that
olive oil can have.
