Mr.. Roosevelt is not yet certain

A REMARKABLE CASE.

In a press dispatch dated New
York. Nov. 26. it is announced that
Albert T. Patrick, the New York law
yer who has time and again been
convicted OF the murder OF million
aire VIM. NJ. Rice, has won the fight
for his life, and that Governor lllg-
gins has commuted his sentence TO
life Imprisonment. In many respects
Patrick's fight for his life has been
the most remarkable ever made In
this country. For more than four
years he has been prisoner IN the
"Tombs, and on several occasions
the death watch has been placed over
him, but he has never despaired, and
in spite OF obstacles has time and
again by one means oranother post
poned the evil hour. At last Pat
rick has saved his life, but the out
come must be unsatisfactory TO him
as it is to the public generally. The
murder OF Rice was a foul and a
brutal one, and the man who COM
mitted it ought to be hung. There
should be 10 middle ground. The law
requires that a mans guilt shall be
established by clear, convincing and
competent testimony, beyond a rea-
sonable doubt. Patrick's guilt has
never been so proven. He was con-
victed upon the testimony OF sell
confessed accomplice who contra
dicted himself in such a manner as
TO render himself totally unworthy
OF belief. His conviction in the first
instance was a travesty upon justice,
repeated in every trial without vari-
ance, and strange to say that after
the marvellous task of securing iuries
to convict upon such evidence as was
adduced, the courts declined to do
their duty and set the verdict aside.
There can be little doubt that Pat
rick is the victim of detective intrigue
to sustain a theory, and while he
may in truth be the guilty man the
evidence has yet to be adduced to
show his guilt. Governor Higgins
ought not to have committed the
sentence to life Imprisonment. Pat
rick ought to have been uncondition-
ally pardoned. The courts and iuries
failed in their duty, and the governor
ought to right the wrong.
