A COMMUTATION
Gov ernor of New.York Says
He May Commute Sen
tence of Alleged
Slayer.
New York, Nov. 17.—Lawyer Albert
T. Patrick will refuse to - receive the
,1ft of Ills life from the hands of Gov
ernor Higgins. This was stated posi
tively today by Clark Bell, the lawyer
who laid before the governor a peti-
Igned by more than 3,000 physi
cians who asked that Patrick be saved
from the electric chair.
A situation absolutely unique In
criminal history, Is created by the
#tubborn stand taken by the alleged
layer of William M. Rice, the decrepit
Texas millionaire, whose valet, Jones,
lie killed by administering chloro
form to hint at Patrick.’* dictation.
Patrick will accept no commutation,
sentence, from the governor, even If
be offered,” said Mr. Bell, with- em
phasis, today. "He demands a full vin
dication or death,. This. Is not an at-
iliuile of bravado on his,part. He Is
innocent and. he would rather be mar
tyred than live out'hls life-In a prison
rotation of a crime which he did
oiumlt.”
Palrlrk has twice written to the gov-
entreatlbg him to disregard all
for clemency, unless they came
hlin personally.
Lawyers expressed the opinion that
Patrick could In no manner refuse to
i|it gubernatorial clemency. It no
itlt warrant Was signed for Ills exc
ion, no one would carry out thi
mandate of the court which convicted
him. and the Judgment of which, tho
lawyer avers, he prefers above life Im-

machine el ruck O'Haver before he was
aware that It had turned from Ita
course. lie wag hurled backward fo
the pavement, hls head striking heav
ily.
A large erowd gathered, and It was
suggested to Miss Aftpel that she take
the man In her automobile to a hos
pital. Bystanders declare she said she
could not do that, as she would get
blood on her dress.

the time and Was probably not ac
countable for remarks.

later In the evening. Miss Appel was
released on 33,000 ball furnished by her
father, J. 8. Appel, proprietor of a

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
IS HARD WORKED MAN
Begins Special Mes
sage. to Congress on
Panama Canal.
Washington, Nov. 27.—President
Roosevelt reached hls office at 3:40
o'clock this morn[pg and at once
plunged Into the stack of correspond
ence that was piled upon hls desk.
Secretary Loeb Joined him shortly
with more letters and reports, and,
from that time until 11 o'clock, when
the cabinet members arrived, the head
of the administration and his right
hand man were about as busy ao It As
possible for hard working men to be.
M*s*age on the Canal.
One of the most Important matters
that Is Just now receiving the presi
dent's attention is his special message
on the Panama canal, which will go to
congress very soon after the legislative
branch of the government meets. It Is
probable that this document will reach
congress about December 8 or 9.
The president's regular annual mes
sage/ which la now In type' and ready
for submission to congress, will not'be
read on the floors of tlis houses until
Tuesday, December 4. It was formerly
the custom for the president to send
hls message to congress on the drat
day, but of late years the executives
have preferred to wait until the second
day, in order to allow members and
senators to effect their organisation
and swear In new members, thus clear
ing the decks, so that they can give
their undivided attention to the Impor
tant subjects discussed by the presi
dent.
To Make Suggestions,
President Roosevelt's special mes
sage to congress upon the Panama
cant!! bill, It le understood, will be a
comprehensive document and will give
a graphic picture of conditions on the
strip as the bullder-ln-chlef of the
great ditch found them on hie visit. He
will make a number of suggestions for
the betterment of the working organ
isation, embodying the plans already
announced, and giving expression to
Ideas not made public. That the presi
dent's suggestions will be enacted Into
law, very early In the coming congres
sional session, is a foregone conclu
sion.
Colonel Charles 8. Bromwell, super
intendent of public buildings and
grounds, was the flrst caller at the
white house today to ahake the presi
dent's hand.
