Attorneys Refuse to Discuss Plans, but Continue Conferences

While Attorneys for Leo M. Frank refuse to discuss their plans, it is known that they are considering some move by which the Case may be brought once more into the Courts. Conferences between them which have been going on for the last few days, still continue despite the resentence passed on Frank Wednesday, and it is expected that they will take some action within the next few days.

On what ground they will seek to carry the Case into the Courts again is not definitely known, but they are certain to consider every legal method on which this might be done. In the event that they exhaust all possibilities without attaining their object, they are expected to go before the State Prison Commission and the Governor with a plea for Pardon or commutation to a life sentence.
