Frank Trial Juror in Conference With Solicitor-Confident of Vindication

M.

Johenning one of the jurors who has been attacked as prejudiced in the defense's motion for a new trail for Leo M. Frank, was in conference with Solicitor H. M. Dorsey on Friday morning.

Johenning declares that he is confident that at the hearing of the motion he will be completely vindicated of the charge brought against him.

While the former juror would not discuss the case in detail, he intimates that he has already secured affidavits which he believes will result in his complete vindication.

In affidavits filed by the defense, two ladies, mother and daughter, swear that they met Johenning on the streets in May and that he then expressed the opinion that Frank was guilty.

Johenning asserts that he did not see these two ladies together at all during the month named.

Solicitor Dorsey is still devoting his entire time to the preparation of the Frank motion, but does not expect to be ready for the argument before next Wednesday.

The solicitor and the attorneys for the defense will hold another joint conference on Friday afternoon to discuss disputed points in the brief of the evidence which has been submitted by the defense.
