A victory In this case will prevent
railroads from enforcing the provis-
ion OF the Jim Crow" car law against
any person going into the state OF
Virginia from point outside OF the
state or going from the state to a
point outside, and Its effect will
break the force OF the law to such an
extent that railroads will make no
attempt to separate passengers at all

been the effect In Maryland since the
decision by the supreme court of that
state sustaining the Identical conten.
tion that we make In our case.

PATRICK REPRIEVED|
Governor. With Jerome's Con-
sent, Grants Long Stay.
HILL SAYS RICE WAS NOT MURDERED
Convicted Lawyer Says oicott Knows
He is Innocent of Crime For which
He Was Condemned TO Die
ON Monday Next.

ALBANY, n. Y. Jan. 16.-Governor
Higgins has reprieved Albert L. Pat
rick, the New York lawyer, staying his
execution for the murder of William
Marsh Rice to March 10. He had been
sentenced to die on Monday.
The reprieve was granted upon
joint request made by the condemned
lawyers counsel, ex-senator David b.
Hill and ex-Judge w. NJ. X. Olcott, and
District Attorney William Travers Je-
rome.
The decision of the public prosecutor
Of New York county not to oppose the
application was the determining factor
in the hearing held before the gov
ernor
The purpose of the reprieve requested
is to permit the presentation of the
newly discovered evidence before the
court of general sessions in New York
retrial of the case.
In the course of the argument before
the governor Senator Hill declared that
there was a precise and newly discov-
cred scientific evidence to show that
Rice was not murdered at all and
Judge Olcott declared that Patrick
knows he is innocent of the crime for
which he is condemned to die"
District Attorney Jerome joined I'm
The request for the reprieve after an
argument before the governor lasting
an hour and half
In consenting to abandon temporarily
the proceedings for executive clemency

from the district attorney a promise
that he would not pursue any dilatory
practice or object to the motion on the
ground that motion for new trial
had already been made and denied.
81 will meet you lawyer-like and like
a gentleman" declared Mr.. Jerome.
Mr.. Olcott said he did not ask COM
mutation of the life sentence.
II have only his power of attorney to
1rge you simply to have an investiga-
ton of the case by commission. Mr..
Patrick doesn't want Communication of
his sentence to life Imprisonment, be-
cause he knews himself to be innocent"
Mr. Olcott then announced that he in
tended later to present newly discoy-
cred evidence.
To this the district attorney objected,
arguing for some finality in the pro-
ceedings.
Il ask" he said, "for submission of
the papers, that an adjournment be
taken for the purpose of charging the
scope of the hearing If desired and that
final hearing be given on definite
proposition. A delay in the execution is
not wasted If 1t brings us to satisfac-
tory result"
That. of course, Mr.. Olcott replied,
was satisfactory to him.
