IN FRANK C?SF 111 I Ililli lt WIIW ft? ATTORNEYS CONTEND TRIAL COURT LOST JURISDIC TION OVER PRISONER BECAUSE OF MOB VIOLENCE Declare Demon Gration in Court Room Probably Had No Par allel in History of Trials UK Aaenrlatnl Pu-" I WASHINGTON. Fe! 25.-Conteud iriK that the trial court, which found Leo M. Frank guilty of thc murder of Mury Fhagun. tho Atlantn factory girl, had luHt Its Jurisdiction over the prisoner because of mob violence tolerated during the trial and because of tho consequent absence of the pris oner from the court upon tho "coer cion" of the trial Judge when the ver dict was rendered, attorneys for Frank today urgued before the supreme court of the I n it cd States that he should bo freed from curtody. Ixiuis Mar shall, of New York, began thc open ing argument in the case and will continue lt tomorrow, when the re presentatives of the State of Georgia also will bc heard. The court was considering the ap peal from tho action of Ute federal district court^for northern Georgia In denying Frank's release from cus tody tn which he was placed for the execution of the death sentence, Im posed by tho trial court. Mr. Marshall first stated"the effect upon the jurisdiction of tao court of Frank's absence when the verdict was rendered, ills statement that Judge F wm. of the trial court, coerc ed Frank into being absent was ques tioned by Chief Justice White. Mr. Marshall declared? tho suggestion by the trial' judge, that Frank's life and limb and thora of lils counsel, might be In danger If they attended amount ed to coercion. The attorney sought to establish that the right to be present at one's i trial vrai ono that could not bc denied. "We bave held that H court may abolish a trial by Jury, and I do not KO? why a Stute may not abolish one of tin- Incident! to a Jury trial." In terrupted Juatlcc PUue?y "Tho de cisiona you elle refer to federal easet?.'' Chief Justice White also asked IjUC.Slioll.-s uitlila that linc. Mi. liol shall replied lt wan a question of due process of law. and while the fifth amendment to the constitution guar anteed ?lue process, in federal cunen, the guaranty of due process in State cases in tho fourteenth amendment was tho ?ame in effect. Ile contend ed that while a State might nboliflh u trial hy Jury, it could no tubolish tue riKht to be present nt whatever kind of trial wa? provided, because of "due proceHS." In the closing moment? of the ses sion. Mr. Marshall took up the point of mob Violence, "I am tree to confess thut point is one that impresses nie very much," volunteered Justice Holmes as the at torney began his argument." "This court han HUH! that there must be i> trial before a competent trib unal." began the attorney. "A com petent tribunal is one that holds the scales of Justice impartially, that is not swayed by fear or# favor. Hero the trial waa marked by'prejudice uud hostility. There, Jeers?ut counsel for Krank were permitted when they lost a point. The crowd almost ires pe BS ed upon the Jury box, hanging over thc jury box and their whispers were heard throughout tho courtroom. Ap plause greeted the uolicltor-genernl when ho appeared at tbe scat of Jus tice, and then the judge held a con ference in the presence of the Jury which the chief of police and a com manding Officer of the State militia. That was a demonstration that prob ably had no parallel In thc history of trials. Finally the court aBked coun nel to meet him in private conference and then upon thc Insistence of thu court that the prisoner might be torn from the sanctuary of the court und lynched by a mob if be was present when the 'ierdlct was returned, coun sel consented to his being absent. The jury was left to return its verdict to the prosecuting officer and the mob. They knew what that meant." I'ltknown Vessel In Mistress. NORFOLK. Va..
