No Hope for McKee's Release Until After
the PresidentiaI Election.

WASHINGTON, Aug. "A. - Samuel Knox,
Mckees attorney, not being very much set back
by the Attorney Generals decided statement
that he had definitely decided not to recon-
mend the pardon OF any OF the whskey thieves,
will arrive at Long Branch or Philadelphia to-
morrow with the intention Of overhauiug the
President and making another attempt for a
pardon. Unless the President comes to the
conclusion that his promise to Taft was a bad

Knox or his friend Mckee until after the Presl-
dental election.

ON the case In any way, would III AXE a non-com-
initial report French's report, however, was
not OF that kind. II reviewed the evidence and
came to the conclusion that there was legal. as
well as humane, grounds for recommending a
pardon. This Is what made the Attorney Cen
eral decide, and act on his decision. that French
could serve his country Just as well in a much
less important position, and to- day he was
transferred to post Of duty which does not
pay 30 well, and yet requires more work.
