CASE OF HOMER BIRD
THE PRESIDENT DECLINES TO IN
TERFERE.
Pardon Attorney Easby-Smith Gives
History Of the Efforts for
Escaping Death.

Representative Broussard of Louisiana
made an appeal to the President today to
open the case of Homer Bird, the man I'M
der sentence of death in Alaska March g,
and whose case has attracted general no
tice by reason of the pathetic attempts OF
his wife and little child to reach the Pres
ident and Attorney General Knox. Mrs.
Bird gave up her attempts to see these two
officials and turned again to members OF
Congress to enlist their assistance. Several
senators and representatives were touched
by her story, and wrote requests to the
White House that the execution Of the SEN
tence be delayed pending further investi-
cation. Mr.. BrouSsard called in person to-
day that he might present Mrs. Birds
facts. The President again declined to re-
open the case. This practically does away
with any hope the unfortunate woman may
have to save the life Of her husband, who
was a man Of standing In New Orleans
prior to his venture to Alaska. Without
action today word of any change in the
sentence could not get to Alaska in time to
stay the execution. Telegraphic orders
would have to be sent to Seattle and con-
veyed from there by water to Alaska.
Been Pending for Four Years.
Mr. J. s. Easily Smith, pardon attorney
Of the Department Of Justice, in speaking
of the case today, said:
"T'his case has really been pending be-
fore the department for more than four
years, and the petitioner and his wife have
received every possible consideration. He
was first convicted of murder on December
49, 1899, and sentenced to be hanged on
February 8, 1900. Upon an application
made to President Mckinley respite was
granted in order to permit the defendant
to take an appeal to the Supreme Court
This appeal was granted and the Supreme
Court on February %. 1901. remanded the
case for a new. trial on account of a tech
meal error of the trial judge in instructing
the jury A new trial resulted in a second
conviction on December "a, 1901 and the
defendant was sentenced to be hanged on
January 49, 1902.
"A second appeal was allowed to the SUI
preme Court which on November II. 1902,
affirmed the judgment of the lower court,
and the prisoner was again sentenced to be
hanged on March 9, 1903.
Immediately after the last sentence was
imposed numerous applications were made
in his behalf for Communication Of sentence
to life imprisonment.
t"Full and complete reports were secured
from the district attorney, the trial judge,
the governor of Alaska, the deputy marshal
who arrested Bird and his companions and
from every person having any knowledge
of the case Complete transcripts of the
testimony on; both trials were also secured.

by Assistant Attorney General James NJ
Beck, who had charge Of the case in the
Supreme Court upon both appeals; by Mr.. c.
H Robb, assistant attorney In the depart
ment, who assisted in the presentation of
the governments case in the Supreme Court
upon the second appeal and by myself;
and after being thoroughly briefed and pre-
pared was laid before the Attorney Gen
eral :.
1.-The Attorney General had the case un-
der consideration for a considerable time,
and finally, on January q, 1903, reported
to the President that he had examined
the testimony and all the papers with
great care and could find no justification
for executive interference.
1.-The President, after keeping the papers
three days and consulting verbally with
the Attorney General. denied the applica-
ton on January 20.
I'm the meantime Senator McEnery, four
Of the members Of Congress from LOUISE
ana and many other senators and repre-
sentatives frequently wrote and called per-
sonally in behalf of the prisoner, basing
their prayers for clenency on the general
sympathy for the wife and children of the
prisoner. Even after the case was denied
by the President Senator McEnery con-
tinued to urge clemency.
FINALLY, after the case had been thus
considered and closed, Mrs. Bird came to
Washington with her little daughter. She
came to the Department Of Justice to see
the Attorney General, and Mr.. Long, the
private secretary to the Attorney General,
informed the Attorney General that Mrs.
Bird desired to see him in regard to execu-
tive clemency for her husband. He was in
structed by the Attorney General to tell
Mrs. Bird that the case had been fully con-.
sidered by the department and denied by
the President, and that the case was there
fore beyond the jurisdiction of the depart
ment to take further action. but that he
would consult with the President concern
Ing the case and that she could call later.
President Declined to Interfere.
1.-The Attorney General did take the case
up with the President, and after a full con-
ference the President informed the Attor-
ney General that he had given the case
every consideration; that his mind was ir-
revocably made up; that the prisoner de-
served no clemency, and that 1t would be
impossible for him to see Mrs. Bird. for the
reason that an interview with her would
be not only a useless waste Of time, but
very painful 80. -
