TORPEDOING OF NEBRAS
KAN ADD GRAVE FAC
TOR TO SITUATION
(Continued trom Tage One.)- -torpedoing
of the Lusitania without a.
moment's warning made it impossible
to launch such life boats as the ship
did carry.
From the brief outline, it was not be
lieved that the German note went be
yond the circular of May. 11 which
promised to express regrets and "make
reparation for mistaken' attacks on
neutral vessels. ...'
Speculation was widespread as to
the Washington government's course.
It was believed the German note would
be promptly answered with a state
ment of facts as understood by the
United States and a reiteration of the
demand for reparation for past events
and guarantees a.s to the future. -.This
prediction was based, however, on no
comment from the White House but on
the general trend of comment among
officials familiar with President Wil
son's viewpoint as expressed on pre
vious occasions.

ah hour to-prepare the notes, alone, but
1 reduce that estimate tochalf an hour."
, Mr. Dorsey's letter "was , in response
to notice from the commission of the
pending application. He wrote:
"The court records of the case,
which doubtless will be considered by
you, present the details of the crime
for the commission ot which Frank
was convicted by the courts of this
country, and illustrate the conditions
and circumstances under which the
crime was committed. I do not under
stand the application for executive
clemency to set up any newly , discov
ered evidence or other grounds not
heretofore considered 4.nd Anally adju
dicated by the various judges of all
the courts, state and Federal, which
have declined to interfere with the
verdict finding Frank guilty of the
murder of Mary Phagan.
"This is therefore an application for
amelioration of the penalty of a crime
for the commission of which the courts
have finally abjudicated the applicant
guilty. Indeed the application does not
pray for a pardon, but asks that the
applicant be punished by life imprison
ment instead of the penalty Imposed by
the trial court.
No Case -for Mercy.
"The facts and circumstances sur
rounding the commission of the murder
of Mary Phagan does not involve the
exercise of mercy or offer inducement
to temper the penalty of the law to
one who has been finally convicted of
the crime. I do not believe that the
education, opportunities and influence
of the applicant or the importunities of
his friends should be"permitted to affect
the expression of an official opinion
and I confess myself unable to find in
the record of this case, a single ground
upon which to justify the solicitor gen
eral, charged with the enforcement of
the law, in asking that the decree of
the courts shall be overridden by the
governor, upon whom also the state
constitution enjoins the sacred obliga
tion to 'take . care that the laws are
faithfully executed.'
"The very fact that the conviction of
the applicant by a jury of 12 citizens
has been affirmed by the judges of all
the courts, state and Federal, by. whom
the case has been reviewed, dispite the
circumstances of the defendant and the
unusual and indefatigable exertions of
his influential friends in and out of
Georgia, confirms my sincere respect
for the integrity of our courts and Jus
tifies my deep conviction that in this
case the ends of Justice have been ac
complished by the process of the law."
A letter to the prison commission
from Spencer R. Atkinson, of Atlanta,'
former Justice of the state Supreme!
court stated that during Frank's trial
Judge Roan from the bench handed
him an anonymous letter threatening
Judge Roan and Frank's lawyers with
death if Frank were acquitted.
"Judge Roan at that time expressed
doubt as to whether it was possible to
give Frank a fair trial," Mr. Atkinson
wrote.
Other letters in Frank's behalf were
received today from United States Sen
ator Vardaman, of Mississippi; Conf
gressman Gregg, of Texas, and Chip
perfield, of Illinois; Governor Hanna, of
North Dakota, and from Rabbi David
Marx, of Atlanta, who was Frank's
pastor.
Mrs. J. W. Coleman, mother of Mary
Phagan, tonight forwarded to the com
mission a-letter protesting against the
commutation of Frank's sentence. In
this matter I have no bitterness," she
declared, "but feel that the penalty the
law has imposed is not too severe."
A clemency petition signed by the
editors of about 60 leading newspapers
and magazines was received at Gov
ernor Slaton's office today.

In an Address Before Southbend, IndJ
Club Last Night.
Southbend, Ind., May 29. Josephus
Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, in an
address tonight at a banquet of the
Southbend Press Press club, referred to
the lack of trained men for war in the
United States.
"I don't like to admit that there is
a deficit in the military system of the
United States," he said, "but if there
is a deficit it is not in the equipment
but in the lack of trained men for war
In the heart of the American nation
is hoped that we will never again gq
to war, but if we do it will be neces4
sary that we have young men with
