the extra gang on the yards here,
was attending to the duties of his
position and had occasion to step
across the track Just as string

he did not hear them coming, nor

passed over his body before they
could be stopped. Both arms were

PATRICK GIVES UP.
His Wife Determines on a Plea for
Communication.

NEW YORK, December 14.-With the
withdrawal of the application for a writ of
error in the United States Supreme Court
yesterday the legal fight to save Albert T.
Patrick came to an end after the hardest
fought battle in the criminal records of the
country.
1t now remains to apply to Gov. Higgins
for a Communication of sentence to life i'm
prisonment. In spite of the determination
of Patrick himself to accept nothing save
a pardon, announced only a few days ago
by himself from his cell in Sing Sing prison.
such an application, designed merely to
save his life, will be made within few
days.
Mrs. Patrick and Patrick's sister, Mrs
Milliken of st. Louis will be the petition
ers, as the nearest relatives OF the con-
demned man. Gov. Higgins has not pub
licly indicated that he would even now
save Patrick from the electric chair, but
such is the expectation of Patr1ck's wife
and of his attorneys.
The governor declared short time ago
that he would accept no petition or appli-
cation Of any sort until the United States
Supreme Court had taken action in the
case. With the dismissal of the proceed
ings in Washington the way Is thus cleared
for the presentation of a formal petition
for pardon or Communication Of sentence to
life Imprisonment.
That the latter course will be taken was
authOr1tatlVely stated last night Dy a man
who has been closely in touch with the
later proceedings to save Patrick. But, it
was added, a Communication Of the sentence
to Imprisonment for life would in no man
ner preclude the reopening Of the case at
some future day If new evidence should be
discovered of character to tend to prove
Patrick innocent of the murder Of William
Marsh Rice.
1t was reported last night that an appli-
cation had already been made personally
to Gov. Higgins but this was fatty denied
by the governor, who was at the Waldorf
Astoria overnight.
IT have seen no one in connection with
the Patrick CASE said Mr.. Higgins, "since
the action Of the Supreme Court In Wash
ington. and no application Of any sort has
been made to me-"
He declined to discuss his probable &C
ton when such an application is formally
made to him.
Patrick as late as October was insistent
upon a pardon being granted or the execu-
ton of his sentence to death being carried
out. Hearing that friends were about to
intercede with the governor to save his life,
he wrote to Mr.. Higgins requesting him to
disregard any such application until 1t
should be made by him personally or issued
with his approval. When Patrick asked for
q pardon last week, however, there were
many who believed it was an indication
that at last Patrick had abandoned his long
legal fight and would be satisfied with a
Communication of the death sentence to i'm
prisonment for life.

Promises to Support Family.

Court yesterday with failing to support his
three minor children. The trial of the case
was continued indefinitely, on the promise
of the officer to Prosecuting Attorney
Ralph Given that he would pay $40 per
month for the support Of his children.
Mrs. Hollidge appeared in court with q
pretty baby and an older child, whom she
claims the officer has failed to support.
She told the authorities that she had not
received any money from her husband since
November, and she was now compelled to
stay with relatives on account of having NO
hOmo.

BALTIMORE Nd, December 14.-"The

wishes Of the French episcopate. A can
vass of the situation has shown that the
vast majority of the bishops were with
him, and all, without a single exception,
have accepted and obeyed his decisions.
Nor were the French clergy at all be-
hind their leaders in manifesting their 10y
atty. Last summer at the gatherings of
the clergy In almost every diocese resolu-
lions were taken to be forwarded to the
sovereign pontiff expressive of their graft
tude and loyalty.
Sympathy Outside France.
This feeling has not been by any means
confined to France. The bishops of Eng
land, Canada, Italy and other countries
are in full sympathy with their brethren
in France and have not hesitated to give
strong expression to their disapproval of
the unjust law.
I'm our own country on the occasion OF
the centenary of the Baltimore Cathedral
a message of encouragement and SYM
pathy was forwarded to the French HER
archy in the name of the bishops of the
United States. In this We expressed the
hope that the Catholics of France might
soon enjoy the religious freedom accorded
their brethren on this side of the ocean.
Expects Renewal Of Faith.
For myself 1 have too much confidence
in the good Of the French clergy, in their
high mindedness, their zeal, their courage,
their readiness to suffer and to sacrifice
themselves to believe that they will tamely
allow religion to be strangled in France,
and l have too much confidence in the
French nation to believe now that they can
see and realize the meaning of the measures
taken and the anmus of those behind them,
that the natural feelings of justice and
humanity and the love of liberty will not
arise in their hearts and lead them to reject
the leaders, who, in seeking to destroy reli-
gion, are bringing disgrace upon the name
Of France. And l have too much confidence
in God and His protection of the church
not to feel encouraged to look for a renewal
of faith and religion in France.
''The view of the case as have given 1t
is based on the facts and the documents;
we need only leave it to an impartial and
liberty-loving people to decide which party
is responsible for the present miserable
conflict
