half He has accorded the relations ano
counsel of the condemned man full hear
ing, but says he cannot listen to the ap
peals of outsiders for interference.
Scores of cranks have visited the White
House during the present week from a

cretly convey to him means of commit
ting suicide. The Jail officials scout thi;
idea. They do not believe the assassin
has courage to destroy himself if he
had the means at hand and they think
he prefers meeting death on the seaffold,
regarding himself as a martyr.
