Marjetta, Ga., Sept. 8.—The Cobb county grand jury reported late yes- terday that jt had been unable to find enough evidence, after a two days’ examination of witnesses, to indig any one for the lynching of Leo M. Frank. The report stated:— “We have found several clues, but we have been unable to find anyone who ‘could identify any party. We have done our best, under our oath, and regret to state that we have been unable to find enough evidence to indentify anyone for this crime.” After stating that the jury had the active \co-operation of Governor Harris, the state attorney general, Solicitor Hegpbert Clay and other offi- cials of Cobb county, the report adds:— ; “We have been unable to connect anybody with the perpetration of this offense, or to identify anyone who was connected with it, although we have investigated the information furnish- ed us by officers and other parties and have followed up letters, signed and unsigned, and to this end, we have subpoenaed and examined many wit- nesses in an effort to disclose the per- petrators of this crime, but none of these witnesses could identify any of the parties. “We find, from investigation, that the officers of the law, and the citi- zens of our town and county, knew nothing of this crime until they heard of the body being found near Frey’s Gin in this county. The city ' of Marietta and the county of Cobb were quiet before this trouble, are quiet now, and all reports to the contrary are untrue.” Upwards of thirty-five witnesses were exaimned Wednesday and yester- day. They included the chief of po- lice and other citizens of Atlanta and persons in every walk of life in Ma- rietta. Anonymous letters, referred to in the report, still are being re- ceived by officials of Cobb county and others, but the tendency now is to ignore them.

Atlantic City, Sept 3.—The tango is passe, New York can have that worn-out and overdone species of the terpsichorean art if 1t wants, but it's far too slow for speedy Philadelphia. Members of the Philadelphia Dancing Masters’ association, in session on the Grand Pier, refused quite positively to consider the tango, even after Pro- fessor Morris Eschner of Atlantic City, with the aid of a music box and two vivacious partners, had endeav- ored to demonstrate that what he called ‘‘the New York Standardized Tango’ was an ideal dance. It was conceded that the tango un- der some aliases might have a chance but simply as the ‘‘tango,” never. The New York revival of the tango as Pro- fessor Eschner executed it was in four figures and was something like this: First figure, side chasers, one. foot pusuing the other; second figure, demi-corte (corte being a step de- rived from a Spanish gypsy dance of forty years ago), and an inside slide; third figure, walk and mediocorte; the commissioners | York | fourth figure, demi-corte, turning on mediocorte. The vote of rejection was decisive. The meeting agreed that the old dances are coming back. but not half so fast as the dancing master would like to see them come. “The way to force action is to get the society people to set the pace,” said Piirofessor Rowe, "“If Mrs. Stotes- bury were to favor old dances exclu- sively, everybody would clamor for the old.” The fox trot and the one-step, un- righteously called vuigar when first introduced, and the canter waltz to be the thing in Philadelphia this winter, WELCOME U.
