The commission's reports to congress, ot
Which them are three, were signed in

were appointed to represent the publlo,
the employes and the employers.
Wilt lorn a Shook.
"The revelations In the Welnstock re
port," Mr. Walsh's statement said, "wtU
eome as a shock to that employing; class.
Which has been denouncing the advance
summary of the main report of the com
mission, signed by myself and three other
members of the commission as a pro
labor finding."
. The charges against employers, made
by the employers' representatives on the
eommlsslon according to Mr. Walsh in
clude the following.
, "That they have resorted to question
able methods to prevent their workers
from organizing, attempted to defeat
democracy by controllng courts and legis
latures, exploited women and children and
Unorganised workers, employed gunmen,
who assaulted innocent people, paid lower
wages than competitive conditions war
ranted, worked their employes long hours
Under unsanitary and dangerous condi
tions, exploited prison labor at the ex
pense of free labor, broken contracts with
labor, attempted, through the authorities
to suppress free speech and the right of
peaceful assembly and bribed represen
tatives of labor."
Weald Be Unionists.
In addition to these charges against the
employers, the employers' representatives
In their report, according to Walsh, say:
"We say frankly tnat if we were wage
earners we would be unionists and as
unionists we would feel the keen respon
sibility of giving the same attention to
our trade union duties as to our civic
duties."

ATLANTA, Oa.. Aug. 21. Gov
ernor Harris let it be known today;
that the people of Georgia would re-j
sent outside Interference or advice in ,
dealing with conditions growing out
of the lynching of Leo M. Frank.
He said:
"If the" members of the mob are
brought to Justice it will be through
the efforts of Georgia officials and j
courts, supported by the sentiment of
the citizens of the state and not
through the newspaper editorials and i
resolutions of indignation and offers j i
of rewards coming from other states. '
"I am afraid these things will only
serve to aggravate a situation that al
ready Is deeply humiliating to our people
and If they continue will eventuate In a
great deal more harm than good."
Announces Conference.
So far as the public la advised, the only
forward step taken In connection with
the lynching today was the announce-1
ment that the governor soon would ask j
the prosecuting officials of Baldwin and j
Cobb counties to confer with him on I
what future action shall be taken. The I
state prison farm Is in Baldwin county I
and Frank's hanging, so far as known, I
took place In Cobb county. I
Apparently the only tangible Investiga- j
tion of the lynching actually under way
Is that being - conducted by Coroner
Booth of Cobb oounty, who empanelled
a Jury soon after he cut down Frank's
body last Thursday morning, but post-.
poned the sitting for a week. i
Coroner Booth ssld today that he had
discovered only two witnesses who had
seen the lynching party In automobiles.
One of these witnesses Is William Frey. ,
but neither was able to fix the identity
of any member of the party. Frank was
recognisea, iney say, Decauae 01 ma amy j
partly clad figure. The lynchers wore '

Tree Is Covered.
MARIETTA. Oa., Aug. II. The trunk
of the tree to which Leo M. Frank was
hanged was covered today with cotton
bagging. Mr. Frey, owner of the tree,
satd this was done to protect the bark
from souvenir hunters. Men from the
nearby cotton gin guard the tree day and
night.
The owner said today he had been of-'
fered as high ss $2G0 for the tree, but hail j
refused to sell. -
"I don't need the money," said he, !
"and, besides, Mary Phagan's folks don't
want that tree cut down. Some of her
people came out here today. They hugged
and patted the trunk of that old tree for
a long time."
Mrs. Frank Collapses.
NEW YORK. Aug. 21. Mrs. Lucille
Frank, wife of Leo M. Frank, who was
lynched at Marietta, Oa., collapsed today
after the burial of her husband. She re- '
malned calm and restrained until the
service had been concluded.
The automobile hearse and the cars j
carrying relatives of the dead raced at i
high speed from the Frank home to the !
eemetery in a vain effort to elude news-j
