While Morse's lawyers Immediately
applied for and secured a stay OF exc
cution for ten days after sentence
had been imposed, still It is probable
Morse will remain a prisoner in the
Tombs until Monday, as Judge Hough
has refused, to admit the financier to
bail.
The Morse lawyers late today ap
piled to the United States circuit
court OF appeals for . writ to show
cause why their client should not be
admitted to bail, and the writ was
granted, but it is not returnable until
Monday. Whether a new trial will be
granted Morse is problematical.

Judge Lacombe granted a writ Of
error to the Morse lawyers today. The
writ is returnable December 3 and il
based on the usual grounds. excep
tions taken by the defense during the
trial and exceptions to the indictmen,

This step had to be taken before
application for bail could be made and
1t also leads to the argument for .
new trial. The Morse lawyers say

The percentage OF replies received

bled to increase their present force by
more than 10000 workingmen to meet
