Bisbee daily review., 1904-07-16
Murderer Elias
 Must Pay Penalty
KILLED POLICEMAN kATzEN- STEIN IN TUCSON OVER
 YEAR AGO.
Acting Governor Nichols Refuses to Interfere With the Findings of Court and Jury, and Is to Be Hanged July 26 in Tucson.

The last hope of Theodore Elias of escaping hanging at Tucson on July 26. was removed yesterday when Act ing Governor Nichols denied an exten- sively s.gned petition for the conmV- tation of his sentence to imprisonment for life, says the Republican. The representatives of the petitioners were given a hearing last Monday and they were told at the conclusion of it that a decision would be reached in the course of three or four days. One of them stated at that time that he was net very hopeful that the petition would be granted
 In his denial of it the acting gover- nor calls attention to the admission of the regularity of the proceedings in the trial court. It was claimed by the petitioners that Elias was irresponsi- ble at the time he killed Officer Kat zensteHa. was irresponsible before the killing and had been so from child hood, a victim of heredity insanity. That was the basis of the plea for mercy. The attention of the acting governor was called to the suffering of the parents who would be really the only persons punished by the execu- ton of the sentence.
 Since the hearing, Acting Governor Nichols has spent the most of his time among the papers in the case. In his denial Of the petition he says that he finds that the question of the responsi Dility of Elias was gone over very full y in the trial court and that the find ings of that court were approved by the supreme court. Therefore the ac- ting governor cannot take up a phase of the case which has already been disposed of
 It was urged in the petition that con finoment for life is a full measure of the punishment for murder and that if Elias was confined 10 such punishment the ends of justice would be as fully served as if he were hanged In re- ply 10 that the acting governor says that the court is to determine the character cf the punishment and that the executive may not change it with out stronger reason than has been urged. The suffering of the parents of the condemned man is taken into con sideration. The acting governor says they have the sympathy of the com munity and his sympathy as well. but that sympathy must not be permitted To interfere with the orderly carrying ont Of the mandate of the court.
 This is probably the end of the mat ter. II is possible that the case will he presented 10 Governor Brodie upon his return to the territory next week. but 1t was the opinion of the represent atives of the petitioners who were here last Monday. that the action of the acting governor would be final.

Parker Gained
 by Bold Coup
MEN OF ALL POLITICAL PARTIES PRAISE HIS COURAGE BY HIS
 STAND.
Nation Is Held to Be Safe, No Matter How the Election Results Because There is Nothing to Excite Financial Troubles.

Chicago. July 15.-By bold stroke Alton Brooks Parker seems 10 have captured the imagination of the country. Instead of being a man of mystery, yelled behind an imprene- trable judicial reserve. he stands forth as a man of convictions and the cour- age to express them, and as such a man is receiving general acclaim.
 Business and professional men join ed yesterday in commsndation of the candidates courage in notifying the St. Louis convention of his belie in the gold standard and his intention of withdrawing his name if the dele gates did not approve his stand. Re publicans. gold Democrats and silver Democrats alike generally conceded his honesty of purpose, and even Bry' an has declared the candidate did a manly thing.
 Like a second Cleveland strong. manly, courageous" the wisest po- litical move in recent years" are some of the things said by the representa- tive men. The bankers are gratihed, the merchants are pleased, many prominent Democrats are jublitant. and the Republicans do not hesitate 10 voice their admiration of Parker, If not of his party.
 Business men unite in saying that the effect on business throughout the country will be wholesome. With the candidates of both great parties com mitted to sound money. they feel that there will be not the slightest danger of disturbance in the industrial world The expect the campaign to be conducted quietly. and look upon the issue more of men than of poli- tics.
 That Parker is a bigger man th."1 his party is the belief of many. They say that a candidate who can force the representatives of 6.OOO.0O voters 10 follow him in a path they have feared to take is braver and stronger than the organization.
 The Republicans. while admiring the courage Of the Democratic nominee, are not willing to concede him chance of election They say, now ever. NhaN A4lt LtlLOEA dlAN pdl strengthened by Judge Parker's ac- ton.
 There seems to be a disposition t0 accuse Judge Parker of having played a clever trick in waiting until after he was nominated, although he is believed to have known eighteen houre in advance that the platform would be silent on the money question. But. his admirers say, it was not for him to decline in advance a nomina- ton that he was not assured of. and besides. there was no certainty up to the time that the platform was adopted that it would contain no refer ence to money.
 Many Democrats said yesterday that the candidates attitude sUnnle- ments the nlstform admirably. They professed to helieve that it is better to have the rIatfoTr, minus 9 money plank than tn have the rartv on record as repudiat.ng any of its former de clarations.

He sold half interest in the colt
Tuesday to Messrs. Clark and Ray for
$500 and the animal was turned over
to Mr.. Sprague at the stables of the

will be put under thorough training.
The colt will make trial of speed
