REFUSES TO INTERFERE.
The President Declines to- Intercede
for an Imprisoned Veteran.

New York, June 3.-President Roose-
welt has just refused to intercede for
an old union army veteran who is now
serving time for the part he took re-
Gently in smuggling articles from
France into this country. The appeal
to the president was made in behalf
of Austin F. Montayne, who until re-
Gently was connected with a firm of
importers. Montayne is now in the
prison hospital on Blackwell's Island,
in feeble health. Montayne was SEN
fenced to four months Imprisonment,
and several other indictments were
found against him in addition to the
one on which he was sentenced. The
men by whom he was employed were
released upon payment Of a fine of $3.50
The appeal to President Roosevelt
was based chiefly upon the civil war
record Of Montayne. In an epistle of
several thousand words his lawyer
tried to reach the sympathetic side OF
the president.
President Roosevelt's reply was that
he did not see fit to interfere.
