The latest information on the subject
is that congress will either adjourn sine
die or take recess till about the middle
Of November within ten days. At an
informal conference of the republican
senators Tuesday morning it was dis
covered that there were only eighteen
or twenty republican and fifteen or six
teen democratic senators in Washington
and many OF these are anxious to get
into their STAKES during the week and
they do not intend to return before the
election. Senator Harris, of Tennessee,
who is the leader on the other side OF
the senate in the tariff debate. is anxious
to go home at once, while other demo-
Gratis say they cannot remain longer and
it seems to be the almost unanimous de-
sire of both democratic and republican
senators to get away and participate in
the campaign.

PETITIONS FOE CLEMENCY.

II is said that large number of names have
been obtained for petition on behalf OF Max
WE'LL the murderer of Preller, ard that strong
effort will be made to obtain either COM
mutation of his death sentence or 0 reprieve.
This is fair example of the recklessness with
which people sign petitions not only Of the
kind in question, but for every Imaginable
purpose The case of Maxwell is peculiarly
aggravated one He stands convicted of hay-
ing in the most deliberate way murdered a
man who was his friend and benefactor-a
man who had been supporting him and paying
all his travelling expenses and toward whom
he held the confidential relation of physician.
Maxwell had no conceivable motive which was
not an aggravation of his crime. Nothing but
the basest greed prompted him to the assas-
snation of his trusting friend. The skill with
which he endeavored to cover his traces while
flying from Justice, and his conduct after
arrest, prove him to be person Of more than
average intelligence and as he is well educated
it is evident that he is the most dangerous
and constituencies Of criminals. Having
friends with means, and clever lawyers, he
has already contrived to cheat the gallows
about two years. and now that the day is
fixed for his execution there appears to be no
valid reason why the law should not have its
course.
1t is not thought probable that the Governor
of Missouri will yield to the pressure brought
TO bear on him on behalf of this criminal,
but whether he does so or not, the people who
without rhyme or reason have appealed to
executive clemency are to blame for THEM
action. The common tendency to sign petitions
of the kind is however, a sign of weakness
and not an evidence Of humanity. So illogical
are men often in similar circumstances that the
very jury who tried and the very judge who
sentenced criminal have often afterward
signed petitions looking to the defeat Of the
penalties they themselves had declared right
eous when acting under oath. In such cases
the signers know perfectly well that the man
for whom they plead deserves punishment, but
they have not the firmness TO resist solicta-
ton, and so they stultify themselves. Many
who sign these petitions would re-
fuse to vote for the abolition Of
capital punishment, yet they do not hesitate
to put their names to documents the practical
intent of which is to nullify the law and thus
deprive it of deterrent influence. The I'M
fairness TO the executive involved in such ap-
peals has led to the institution in many States
of Board Of Pardons, whose function is TO
investigate and report upon all similar cases.
But the tendency to sign every petition for
clemency is decidedly mischievOus one and
it should be resisted as much as possible.
