Claims Presidents Pardon Releases
Him from Disbarment.

SALEM, Nov. 15.-In his answer
to the disbarment proceedings against
him before the supreme court this
morning, which was received by mail,
Judge A. H. Tanner, by his counsel,
w. w. Cotton and C. E. s. Wood
admits the principal allegation in the
complaint, but denies that the plea
of guilty amounts to conviction of
a felony involving moral turpitude,
and that no indictment was ever en-
tered against him on the charge of
perjury.
That he was granted an uncondi-
tional pardon by the President of the
United States, June rs, 1906, which
exonorated him of crime and ex-
empted him from disbarment proceed
ings. That the perjury occurred be-
fore the grand jury, as citizen, and
not in his professional capacity. He
then recites the history of the case
and the part he took in the celebrated
Mitchell conspiracy case.
