Governor Ode11 Declines to Interfere
 With Sentence.
 ALBANY, N. Y, Sept. 29.-Mrs. Van Wormer, stepmother of the three brothers who are to be executed at Clinton on Thursday, called at the eX- ecutive chamber to make a final ap- peal in behalf Of her stepsons.
 Governor Odell declined to see her on the ground that he had fully con sidered the case and that an interview would be only source of useless pain to both. Mrs. Van Wormer accepted his decision as final and will return to Kinderhook.
 Tn his message to Mrs. Van Wormer the governor said that his sympathies had been aroused to the utmost. So anxious had he been to give the broth CTS every possible chance that he had twice reprieved them. Now his deci- sion not to interfere with the execution of the death sentence was irrevocable.
 Mrs. Van Wormer evidently had lit tie hope that her visit would be effec- tive, and she accepted the message of the governor without protest and left the capitol. She will go to Dannemora for a last interview with her stepsons, whom she has not seen since they were taken from the Hudson jail to the state prison
