afiidavits published in the local papers
to-day, that the Communication Of the SEN
tence Of death OF John Koccis, who was
to have been hanged at Trenton, yester-
day. to life Imprisonment. was fraudu-
lently secured.
He denies having made the affidavlts
that the Board Of Pardons considered,
and says that desperate and success
full attempt to save Koccis's life was
made at the expense of his professional
reputation. rs
koccis. who was charged with the
murder of Mary Magolis at Trenton in
July, 1892 had able lawyers to defend
him. Their last effort TO save him was
based principally upon an affidavit of
F.. ]. Nekarda, a New York lawyer, and
publisher of newspaper in the siavak
language, to the effect that he had had
conversation with Hayter who was
the interpreter for the defense at Koc-
cis's trial. and that Hayter had only q
slight knowledge OF the Slavak, the Lam
guage spoken by Koccis, and that there
was no such word In that language a.
Hayter at the trial interpreted as mean
ing yes"
This affidavit was supplemented by
an admission from Hayter that he had
only an imperfect knowledge OF Slavalx,
he being a native of the province Of
Kalis, Russia.
Mr.. Hayter replies In his published
affidavits that he understood every word
spoken by Koccis: that he made no adj
mission to Nekarda nor anyone else:
that Nekarda had no opportunity to
Judge of his knowledge of the slavak
language. since he did not have twenty
words with him; that thorough investi-
cation had been made be the Austrian
Consul and Slavih interpreters of his
ability to interpret the language. and
that the Court had selected him In pref
erence to all others.
A petition. numerously signed by
prominent county and city officials and

ed koccis. was presented to the Court
OF Pardons a few weeks ago, but the
Board then declined to interfere. Koo.
