BRANDEIS STO RES TOM JOHNSON IS ARRAIGNED Negro Formally Charged with Mur der Pleads Not Guilty. SHOWS EMOTION AT THE HEARING ' ) Stepson of II. R. Frankland Comes from Chicago and Says Family Believes the Maa Hal Drugged, Then Killed. . The first step of the court in the pros cution ' of Thomas Johnson, the negro charged with the murder of Henry Frank' land, found robbed and dying with his throat cut near Union station Wednesday night, was taken Saturday morning at the arraignment of the prisoner In police court. Johnson pleaded not guilty and waived his preliminary examination, lie was behind over to the district court without bond, 1 being charged with murder In the first degree, a nonballable ofljenso. Johnson stood . before. Judge Crawford and listened to the reading of the informa tion filed against him by County Attorney English with the greatest display of emo tion that he has evinced since his arrest. The negro's eyes narrowed to tiny slits when 'the evenly modulated voice of the prosecutor pronounced the words, to slay, murder and kill him, the said Hejiry R. Frankland with malicious and felonious Intent." When the formal reading of the docu ment had ended Johnson stood silent anil With head bowed. "What do you plead ?" asked the county attorney. Johnson braced himself and raised his head. Ills voice was clear and full, but Ve hesitated. Pleads Not guilty. "I plead not guilty," was his reply. The negro waived his prtllnlnaiy ex amination and In a short discussion of the matter evinced a knowledge of j familiarity with the process of the court. I The accused man was bound ovty. "l have no money and no lawyer," said Johnson In a husky whisper. "Counsel wilt be appointed when you ap pear In the district court," said Judgi Crawford. Then tho prisoner, was led back tw ills cell. In the court room near by the negro charged with the murder sat Fred A. Oil bert of Chicago, jlepson of Henry Frank land, the murdered man. Mr. Gilbert hud" Just arrived. He will be a witness In the trial of Johnson to Identify. Frankland. the murdered man. Tonight he leaves for Chi cago with the body of his stepfather. The funeral will be conducted by the Odd Fel lows, who are making arrangements for the. care of the body here. Ullbert faced Johnson in his cell at the lly Jail. "This Is the son of the man you mur dered." said Chief of Detectives Savage. "I didn't murder anybody," said the sulKy negro, tit mbllng as he spoke. . . Refuses to Tell That," Too. "I wish that you would tell ma if Mr. Frankland had any other Jewelry on hira besides his watch V said Gilbert. "I don't know anything abou him," re plied Johnson, turning away. fraukiaud ' as ou his way from Bell Fourche, S. !., where he had been working as cook at a contractor's camp, to his home In Chicago, where fie expected to enter the teaming business. He had, so his stepson says, not less than (300 with him. The Frankland family is much perplexed by the murder in view of the facts as pre sented. Frankland, according to Gilbert, was a man of sober habits and particularly averse to negroes. The Franklands believe the victim was drugged. Johnson stands as obdurate a when first arrested. "Are you ready to relieve your conscience of that load?", .asked Chief of Detectives Savage of the negro. ' Johnson shook "hi head and turned to pace about his cell. Johnson has asked Julius 8. Cooley to take up his case. He was visited In his cell by the lawyer. The defense, it is un derstood, will be an alibi. The body of Frankland will b taken to Chicago tonight. The murdered man leaves his widow an two chudren, Edward, 1J years old, and Harry, U years old. The family home is at 2706 Wilcox avenue.

Cowin, "and I apologize to the court for saying so, but It is a fact. I am defending Mrs. Paul because . she has suffered the most serious charge which! can bo brought against a wife and mother. I have, the he nor to defend her honor' and to prevent, If I can, disgrace attaching to her little children." General Cowin was arguing a motion by the defendant lit the Paul divorce suit for temporary allifony, court costs and al lowance of attorney fee for Mrs. Paul's counsel, who ti himself. He ssked $100 in court costs and 1300 as attorney fee. A sum for temporary alimony lie did not name, but suggested that Mrs. Paul had need to pay a servsnt at 14 a week. A. W. Jefferis, attorney for Paul, ob jected to $300, and suggested that H"00 would be better. Judge Troup, who was at first minded to spilt the difference, finally de cided for the amount asked by Mrs. Paul's attorney. Mr. Jefferis then opposed the temporary alimony grant, saying that Mrs. Paul had a home and provisions; that her bills for necessities, amounting to !3S for. five weeks, hadbeen paid by his client, and that th ,$100 allowed for court costs might leave something over. "I wish the defense to get all the testi mony it thinks It needs, but you can get a good many witnesses for $100," he said. This last declaration caused a smile In the court room. ' Th sum of $30 per month was allowed for temporary alimony. Mr. Paul's attorney mentioned the fact that since the filing of the divorce petition, Mrs. Paul had taken into her household the child of a friend. The other lawyer rose and explained that the Infant was the child ' of a woman who had left Omaha seeking employment, and that lie, had told Mrs. Paul that while it would ordinarily have been the right thing to do, yet in the existing circumstances, It was ' not. Mrs. Paul then sent the child to its mother. Mrs. Paul appeared in court at the end of the hearing for a few minutes. Her husband was not present. The case will come for hearing on its merits Tuesday. Shortly after the argument In the alimony matter, an- amendment was filed In the offke of the district clerk to Mrs. Paul's answer and cross bill. This is In response to the plaintiffs motion for more specific averment and contains not much new matter.' except the -names of two physic ians, whose activities were mentioned la th answer, but whose names were not there given.
