Board Of parsens.

A new era for the Board OF Pardons
commenced February 9Th, when Gov
ernor Peabody presided for the first
time. In his message the governor
recommended that the board be abol
ished. and when the meeting was
called to order last night he made a
short address. outlining his policy in
regard to pardons He said that when
a map had been clearly convicted he
saw no reason why the sentence
should not stand. He would consider
pardons only when new matter came
up after the conviction. He did not
approve. he said. of pardoning on ac-
count of the mere fact that they We're
in Jail for long time. II was the
business OF the courts to pass the SEN
tence.
IN spite OF the fact that the COVER
nor did not approve of its existence.
Secretary Stonaker seemed deter
mined TO convince him that the Board
OF Pardons was not useless. Ie pre-
scnted long list Of applications. ard
the session lasted until nearly 1870.
when Just two cases were reported IA
yorably. One was that of John Ec-
Donald. sentenced from Pueblo in 1901
for three TO five years for forgery II
was claimed that the alleged forgery
was nothing more than "a bar room
row. Mcdonald, II Is said. was drunk.
and passed over the counter a check
for s2.5o. forged. He was recommend
ed for pardon.
The sentence of Charles Grabert.
sentenced from Lake county In 1902
for embezzlement for from two to two
and a half years. was commuted TO
July j, 1903. The plea was that Gra-
bert, during the hard times. took ad-
vantage of the fact that he was Gus
todian of the funds of the Ancient Or
der of United Workmen. and that he
took money which he intended TO pay
back. There were several OF his cred.
itors who appeared before the board.
The board decided to further inves-
ttgate and to take under advisomenr
the application for the pardon of John
w. Buhrlage.

Washington. Feb. 1.-THE House yes
terday adopted the conference report
on the Department of Commerce bill
by vote of 251 to 10. One Republic
can (Mr. Littlefieid) and nine Demo-
Gratis voted against this action. Several
Democrats took the position that the
Nelson amendment" to the bureau of
corporations was a weak and ineffect-
ual attempt to provide the machinery
for corporation publicity. Mr.. Mann of
Illinois, on behalf of the Republicans.
contended on the contrary that 1t was
a better measure of publicity than had
been presented in any other bill.
Mr.. Richardson OF Alabama, one OF
the conferees on the bill, to whom MT.
Hepburn yielded thirty minutes. ex-
planned his reasons for declining to
support the Nelson amendment cover
ing the bureau OF corporations. He
did not believe any Democrat could
sustain himself by opposing every
thing aimed at the trusts because 1t
was Of Republican origin But he did
not believe the Nelson amendment was
aimed at the trusts. He said II was q
trayesty upon what It claimed to be.
II was. he said. an ''ultra-diluted
dose" Its purpose. he declared. was
not to authorize the President to pro-
ceed against the trusts. but simply to
secure information upon which he
could base recommendations. This. he
said. was poor response to the bold
threats which were heralded abroad
that an extra session would be called

GOV. TAFT WANTS
AMERICAN MONEY

Washington. Feb. IL. - Secretary
Root has transmitted to the president
pro TEN OF the Senate copy OF ca
blegram from the governor Of the Phil
ippines. dated Manila. February 5th.
indicating the urgent necessity OF legis-
lation regarding the Philippine curren-
cy. In his dispatch to the secretary OF
war. Governor Taft says:
''The Official ratio of Mexican dollars
to United States currency is now $2.G6
to 81. The total direct net loss to the
insular treasury from the depreciation
of silver since January /, 1902. is ST.
277.947.
'.All business is suffering greatly
from the fiuctuation and the deprecia-
ton In the insular treasury. Immense
losses to the merchants who have sold
on credit are reported. Failure to
furnish relief at this session OF Con-
gress would create CONSERVATION
throughout the islands. Adding to the
prevailing financial depression. the loss
OF animals by rinderpest and other
contagious diseases and the resulting
destitution, the political situation
would become more difficult.
The adoption Of American money
would enhance prices greatly and de-
range every form of business. Legis-
lation making the gold peso equal to
the American half dollar as unit OF
value. the peso and subsidiary minor
coinage receivable for all public dues
at the rate of so cents American money
for one peso. with a provision for issu-
ance OF silver certificates. based on the
deposit OF new pesos. would furnish a
currency as good as American money
and better adapted to the needs of the
islands The Philippien commission
ers are unanimous in their views"

RntIation vas severely scored yester-
day by counsel before the anthracite

tSoversy and demanded consideration

sent or dicfation Of the union
During his presentation OF the 90
Mr. Lenahan denounced the union as .
fomepter OF cri>e and anarchy Tne
main feature of his argument Was tne
claim that the union had no legal or
moral right to coerce miners into mem
Nership. or TO arrogate TO itself tne
authority to fix the wages OF mine
vork0bA
James II. Torrey. counsel Tor the
Delaware 4 Hudson company, claimed
that the question of the union was not
at issue before the commission. but he
devoted much time TO the consideration
Of that demand He asserted that yio-
lence and intimidation were agencies
selected for the promotion OF the pur-
poses of the mine workers Regarding
the demand for an eight-hour working
day, Mr.. Torrey said the evidence
showed that for various reasons the
breakers did not average more than
eight hours a day. SO that the physical
effects OF long hours were not felt.

who had been put on trial last Thurs
day for the murder OF Mrs. Anna Pulit-
ger last September. pleaded guilty to
murder in the second degree in the
criminal branch of the Supreme Court
Monday morning. The plea was at
cnca accepted by the court and he was
sentenced to life Imprisonment Mon
day afternoon he was taken to Sing
Sing to serve his term
This sudden action of Young was to-
tally unexpected and created an even
greater sensation than If he had been
convicted after a full trial. II resulted
from the complete collapse OF his crafty
efforts, repeated even as late as Satur-
day. to deceive experts on insanity and
the court.
The murder of Mrs. Pulitzer was one
of the sensataions of last September.
Her body was found weighted with q
horse iron in a canal in a Jersey City
suburb. Her throat had been cut and
her abdomen ripped open. The body
was traced TO the rooms in an apart
ment house. the Clarence, occupied by
William Hooper Young, grandson Of
Brigham Young. The rooms had been
rented by his father. who was in Eu-
rope. In adjoining apartments were
several Mormon elders. The woman
who had gone from her home to buy
food for her husband was enticed there
by Young and brutally murdered. Her
body was removed in a trunk that was
used later to ship her clothes to Chi
cago, where it was seized and opened
Meanwhile Young had been traced
from point to point. He was finally
caught in Connecticut while posing as
a tramp. He protested innocence at
first and began to simulate madness.
