WITH A WOODEN LEG
JOHN SINCLAIR NAY WALK TO
THE sCAFFOLD.
Up to Late Hour This Afternoon Presi-
dent Roosevelt Had Not
Granted Clemency.

John Sinclair, colored who Is under SEN
tence of death. is anxiously awaiting the
Presidents action upon the application FOR
a Communication of sentence. 1t was expect
ed that the executive decision would be an
nounced at noon today, but the President
was too busy to take up the matter this
morning. He will probably do SO late THIS
afternoon.
It Is generally understood that the recon-
mendation of the law officer Is adverse 10
the applicant, and the belief Is expressed by
those interested in the case that executive
clemency will not be extended.
Several suggestions were made as to the
manner of getting Sinclair, who has only
one leg. from his cell to the scaffold with
out creating scene. The jail officials nave
leg has been made and fitted to Sinclair.
Will Walk to Scaffold.
BY the use Of this leg he will be able to
take the long walk to the scaffold, and the
hangman will be able to fasten the ropes
with as little trouble as If the man had
two legs. The solution of the problem has
greatly relieved the jail warden. and no
trouble is anticipated.
The Rev. John Roberts will advise Sim
clair Of his fate. and If the decision is adj
verse, as 1t is believed it will be. the min
lister will make renewed effort to bring
about change In the condemned mans re-
ligiouS views.
Sinclair will attend the religious services
in the prison tomorrow, no matter what
decision is reached, and his relatives will
probably call and spend some time with
him.
