GRAHAM S RELEASE
NOW SOUGHT BY
MISS NJ 'C0RMACK

Miss Mccormack, 10 whom he was en-
gagged. is endeavoring to obtain the par
don OF Marcus Graham. who was convict
ed OF printing and uttering counterfeit
800 bills al 81. Louis two years ago.
Graham was sentenced to Is years at
hard labor in the Atlanta Ca. govern
ment prison, and one OF the grounds upon
which she seeks his release Is that his
health Is giving way.
Miss Mccormack will visit St Louis 10
see Judge Elmer b. Adams Of the United
states dIstrict court, who sentenced Cra-
han, and the prosecuting attorney, hoping
10 induce them TO affix their signatures
to the petition.
1t is intended TO show that the sentence
was severe. Crahan's conduct In prison Is
said 10 have been exemplary, and this,
with his pleading guilty and saving the
expense OF a trial. is expected 10 carry
weight. Miss Mccormack will also appeal
directly 10 President Roosevelt.
Last summer she had an interview with
Chief OF the United States Secret Service
wilkie, who obtained Crahan's confess
sion and who is said 10 have told her that
Crahan's sentence was excessive.

RESIGNATION OF
CAPT. WYNNE WILL
BE ACCEPTED

Washington. June H-Capt Robert r.
wynne. United States Marine corps. who
was tried by court-martial at the New
York Navy Yard and convicted on three
serious charges. will be permitted to re-
sign from the navy II the president ap-
proves the recommendation OF the navy
department, and there is no doubt that
he will do so.
The court did not recommend clemency
OF any sort. but merely sentenced the
officer TO dismissal from the service. The
navy department processes not TO know
whether the officer will hand in his resig-
nation, but 1t is likely that he will. In
that event the case will be dropped en-
tirely, Capt. Wynne ceasing TO be an
officer OF the government.
The secretary OF the navy approves the
sentence of dismissal passed by the court
martial. but in his recommendation to
the president. who has final action on
all cases involving dismissal. Gays that in
view OF Capt. wynnes services and pro-
vocations under which he acted In the
most serious offence charged. the depart
ment advises that before the sentence
be executed Capt Wynne be given an op-
portunity 20 resign. There was no diver
sity OF opinion among the members OF
the court. except that three OF the Officers
OF that body recommended that medical
board be appointed to investigate the SAN
ity OF the accused officer.
r. 8. Theall. counsel for Capt. Wynne,
yesterday appeared before Secretary Bon
aparte and submitted a brief protesting
against the manner In which the case was
being handled.
Capt wynne was tried on three charges:
Neglect OF duty in not reporting at the
call to quarters on the battleship Ala
bama. to which he was attached as COM
mander OF the marine forces; wilful dis
obedience OF orders. and, third, conduct
