The Atlanta Constitution,
Saturday, 22nd November 1913,
PAGE 5, COLUMN 4.
Despite the attitude of Judge Hill and
the Solicitor General, William Smith, attorney for Jim Conley, will make
strenuous effort next week to have the negro factory sweeper, whose story
convicted Leo M. Frank, of the Phagan murder, brought to early trial.
The case was advanced again on Thursday
by Judge Hill and while Mr. Smith was in court he made no objection to the
procedure and it was taken for granted that he acquiesced in the matter of
postponement.
On Friday, Mr. Smith made the statement
that he would formally demand the early trial of his negro client when the
criminal court again takes up sessions next week.
Just how he will proceed with his
demand is not as yet made known, but he intimates that he will file a written
demand for trial and argue the matter before the court if allowed to do so.
It was learned
Friday that Judge Hill will not allow the case to come up for trial before the
Frank re-trial motion is disposed of in supreme court.
