A PARDON GRANTED
Gov. Richards PardOns f. ". Hartell.
Convicted Of the Crime Of
Burglary.
The Petition for Executive Clemency
Signed by a Large Number Of
Citizens.
When He Stole the Goods He Left a
Note Stating that He Would
Pay for Them.

HELENA, April 5.-(Special to The
TRIBUNE .-Gov. Richards has pardoned
E. W. Hartell, convicted last August of
burglary at Great Falls and sentenced to
the penitentiary for two years. The
pardon was granted on petition, state.
ments in which were verified by the
governor through personal investigation
and correspondence. The governor in
his letter to the board of pardons say:
ut appears that the crime for which
Hartell was convicted was committed
under extenuatihg circumstances which,
viewed in the light Of the punishment
already received, should have no little
weight in the consideration OF a plea for
clemency. Severe illness, resulting in
delirium, has impaired to some degree
his reasoning faculties. He was reduced
to destitute circumstances, his home was
sold on execution and his wife and
four small children were in
need of necessaries OF life when
he burglariZed the store and took ten
dollars worth of goods. He left a note
upon the counter declaring he would
pay for the goods taken as soon as he
could earn the money.
"Since his incarceration his family has
been maintained by the county of Cas-
cade and unless he is released it will now
be necessary to separate the members of
the family and part the mother from her
little ones. Responsible citizens pledge
themselves to provide Hartell with work
when released to enable him to support
his family. Petitions for his pardon
have been signed by the prosecuting
witnesses, some Of the jurymen and
prominent citizens who believe the ends
OF Justice can best be subserved by exc
cutive %clemency.
among these who ask for the pardon
are several county officers, Senator Glib
son, ex-Mayor Webster, and others
familiar with the case, as we'll as a mum
Der OF citizens Of Jefferson county. In
my judgment the plea for pardon is JUS
titled by the circumstances"

PARIS, F.pril 5.-Another bomb ex-
p'osion occurred here last evening near
the senate chamber about $50 o'clock.
The bomb was placed IN a flower bed on
the window sill Of a restaurant opposite
the senate chamber. M. Taillard, AZ
artist and his companion were injured
by the explosion. A strong force OF
militia and police soon had possession OF
the restaurant and the official investiga-

prevent such affairs. Several persons
have been arrested upon suspicion, but
it is known that the police have no clue
to the identity Of the criminal. The
place was completely wrecked and the
damage done the adjoining buildings
was much worse than at first supposed.
