Reading Time: 2 minutes [237 words]

MILTON KLEIN, sworn for the Defendant.

I saw Mr. Frank last Thanksgiving evening at a dance given by the

B'nai B'rith at the Hebrew Orphans' Home. I also saw him that same

afternoon between half past four and six o'clock. The dance lasted from

eight to half past eleven. Mr. Frank helped Mr. Copeland and myself

give the dance. We were the committee in charge.

CROSS EXAMINATION.

I was down at the jail to see Mr. Frank when the detectives brought

Conley down there. I sent word down that Mr. Frank didn't care to see

Conley, that he didn't care to see anyone at that time. He knew that Conley was there. I was the spokesman for Mr. Frank. He wouldn't see

any of the detectives either. Mr. Frank said that he would see Conley

only with the consent of his attorney, Mr. Rosser. He said for them to

send and get Mr. Rosser. Frank's manner was perfectly natural. He

considered Conley in the same light that he considered any of the city

detectives. He said he would not see any of the city detectives, or Mr.

Scott without the consent of Mr. Rosser. He considered Scott as working for the city. He included Scott with the rest of the detectives. Mr. Frank looked very much disappointed because the grand jury had just

indicted him when he had expected to be cleared. Mr. Frank has a great

many friends who constantly visited him in jail.
