Wanted to Take Dispositions

and also examine Mrs. Edwards with
regard to the authenticity OF the con-
fession. Counsel for Greason, he said,
would not be able to do this II the
case of Mrs. Edwards was not contln-
ued, because they were both under
sentence to hang in the morning. John
Fl. Rothermel and William III. Sadler,
attorneys for Greason, supported Mr..
Deysper and also pleaded for re-
hearing in the case of their client. Mr..
Sadler informed the board that he had
four witnesses in behalf OF GreaSon
who had never been examined. The
board retired and after dellberatlng
twenty minutes returned to the bench
and announced that the board had de-
cided to take up both cases and lmme-
diately continue them.
After the announcement OF the
boards decision Lieutenant Governor
Brown informed the attorneys for Mrs.
Edwards and Greason that both cases
would be taken up next month TO
gether by the board unless the SUI
preme court in the meantime inter
fered.
Greason's case has been in the SUI
preme court six times and twice be-
fore the board of pardons. The death
warrant has been read to him ten
times. Mrs. Edwards case has never
been in the supreme court, but the
board of pardons has twice refused to
commute her sentence.
After the governor was officially in
formed of the action of the pardon
board q messenger was sent to the
sheriff of Berks county withdrawing
the death warrants.

WOMAN ALSO HAS HIS NECK
SAVED FROM MOOSE.

Harrisburg, Pa, Feb. 16.-On rec
ommendation of the board of pardons
Governor Pennypacker has Withdrawn
the death warrants in the case Of Mrs.
Kate Edwards, the white woman, and
Samuel Greason, the negro, who are
under sentence to hang together in the
Berks county Jail at Reading for the
murder of Mrs. Edwards husband in
1901. The case of Greason will now
be again taken to the Pennsylvania
supreme court and if that tribunal re-
fuses to reopen the case the attorneys
for Mrs. Edwards and Greason Will
have to appear before the board OF
pardons next month.
The supreme courtroom was crowd
ed with spectators when the board of
pardons convened at 10 o'clock to take
up the cases and other routine busl-
ness. In the crowd were many men,
bers of the Legislature and also the
delegation of women who presented d
monster petition to the governor Tues
day in behalf of the condemned Wo-
man.
When the pardon board went into
session some minor cases were dlS-
posed Of after which the Edwards
case was taken up. Elwood II. Deys-
per. of counsel for Mrs. Edwards, made
a motion that the case of Mrs. Ed
wards be continued. He made this
motion, he said, because Mrs. Edwards
had confessed that she had committed
the crime and that Greason had no
hand in 1t and because counsel for
