The Atlanta Constitution,

Tuesday, 1st December 1914,

PAGE 7, COLUMN 2.

The remittitur in the Frank Case, it is expected, will still be withheld from the Superior Court on account of news from Washington that the United States Supreme Court, which reviewed the Appeal presented by the prisoner's lawyers yesterday, will not hand down their decision until next Monday. Frank's Application for a review of his conviction and trial was carried before the entire Court in Washington Monday morning after having been previously denied by two Justices. Chief Justice White received the motion, saying that the Court would take the papers and give them careful consideration. A decision, it is said, will likely be announced next Monday.
