The Cleveland Street Man Is at
Last Pardoned.
STRONG PETITION IN HIS FAVOR.
The Governors Reasons for His Action
Believed to Be Victim of an
English Lords Plot.

Charles r. Hammond, who was con-
victed of grand larceny in the superior
court of King county year ago last De-
cember and sentenced to two years in the
penitentiary, was pardoned Yesterday by
Governor Ferry. He has been in the
county Jail for about fifteen months, hay
Ing appealed his case to the supreme
court. The petition was signed by the
prosecuting attorney. the sheriff, auditor,
treasurer. chairman of the King county
board of commissioners, the mayor of Sc
attic and many leading citizens, and the
governor granted the petition on the fol-
lowing grounds:
First-That the petitioners believe that Ham.
mond was not guilty of the crime alleged to
have been committed by him.
seeond-That they believe the ends of justice
have been fully subserved by the imprisonment
already sustained.
Third-That he has family in destitute cir.
cumstances, dependent solely upon him for
maintenance.
Fourth-That he ia in failing health.
The pardon came by mail from Olympia
yesterday afternoon and arrived at the
Jail at about 4 o'clock. Hammond was
met by his 12-year-old boy. who was over
loyed at his release. His face is white
and bleached from long confinement and
somewhat thin from i'll health.
The alleged crime for which Hammond
was convicted was the stealing of seal
skin sack valued at $3.50 and SO gold
watch and chain from Mrs. Augusta SIM
mons. The woman claimed that Ham
mond made her drunk in the Newmarket
saloon, owned by him, and that
when she recovered from the effects of the
liquor her sack and watch were gone. The
principal witness for the state was Alex
ander Todhunter, employed by Hammond
as bartender, who testified to the alleged
confession Hammond made, in which he
admitted stealing the missing articles.
Todhunter is now out Of the state and it is
believed was detective employed by GER
tain persons high in English society for
the sole purpose Of placing Hammond,
who formerly ran the notorious Cleveland
street house in London. behind the bars.
The police and all who have investigated
the matter carefully are confident that

Industrial Training for Girls.

Superintendent Barnard has long been
of the opinion that sewing should be
taught in the public schools. AS yet.
however, it has been impossible to intro
duce this branch of industrial education
Those, however, who desire instruction
in this particular will no longer remain
without opportunity. Encouraged by
Mr. Barnard and others, Miss X. NJ.
Graf, of LOIS Tenth street, has decided to
open an industrial school, in which
thorough and complete instruction in
the use of the needle will be given. The
hall in which the school will be con-
Quoted is on the southwest corner of
Fifth and Pike streets. Miss Graft is a
competent teacher, and the project, being
on the right lines, merits the hearty sup
port of the public.
