later put 10 work.
Warden Johnson said today he had not
observed signs OF any mental derange-
ment i'm Patrick as the result of his long
Imprisonment and his struggle for free
dom, although the fact that Patrick had
been dissatisfied with the commutation
OF his sentence instead OF the grant OF n
full pardon had given rise to the report
that his mind was unbalanced
The next step TO be taken by Patrick

apply TO the United States court for a

choice Of Mayor-elect Mccarthy for that

i should give up for that Office ! think
that my chances are at least as good as
those Of some who arc running for the
office.
ut is true that the board Of aldermen
does not want a Democrat appointed.
Therefore, ! think Mr. Mccarthy should
announce his choice as soon as possible,
that the candidate may canvass the alder
men 10 sec IL his appointment will be con-
firmed
IF he finds otherwise, then the mayor
elect will have an opportunity TO appoint
