the story charging him with securing
the parole Of Shercliiffe, an Iowa out
law, for political purposes. The Secre-
tary SAYS:

WINGED that Shercliffe. whose real name
was Morris, purposed to reform. He
was offered employment In Omaha, and
released him on the agreement that
he should accept the employment and
make regular reports"
The Secretary says that for year the
man made his reports accurately every
month. and that his behavior was all
that could be desired. At the end OF a
year the three men whom Secretary
Shaw, then governor, had watching him
reported that Shercliffe was becoming
restless and dangerous. He was, there
fore, sent back to prison. With refer
ence to the charge Of politics the Secre-
tary says that Shercliffe's parole was
granted a month after the election. He
gives the dates to prove this assertion.
The letter Of Hubbard which has been
used as authority for the sensational
statements made against him Secretary
Shaw says was withdrawn.
