release from the Utah penal institu-
ton through proceedings for a writ
OF habeas corpus in the supreme court
of the state.
Just how Connors could be COM
PEELED to serve a life sentence and an
additional ten years has not been ex-
planned by any one excepting the pris-
oner himself when he remarked at the
time the additional sentence was pro-
nounced that the state would have a
hard time keeping his ghost behind
the bars for ten years after he had
served his life sentence"
Connors was sentenced to serve a
life sentence about ten years ago for
killing an officer named Strong at
Provo. About seven years ago he was
implicated I'm the attempted jail break
headed by Abe Majors. and for his
part In this affair, in which Connors
assaulted a guard. he was sentenced
to an additional ten years. Neither his
life sentence nor the ten years SEN
tence has expired. but Connors has en-
gagged attorneys to bring his case be-
fore the supreme court.

Mr.. Gore declined. however. to mem
ton any names, but said he hoped
there would be an investigation of the
whole matter, in the course OF which
he might make the disclosures.
1t is known that Mr.. Gore mentioned
10 some OF his colleagues the names Of

said that he did not care to have them
appear in print for the reason that they
should be brought out In n congression-

there are $50, 900 acres of coal land in
Oklahoma worth $3.50. 900. 900, OF which
the attorneys would get $4,000, 900 un-
der the existing contracts. Mr.. Carter
approved by President Roosevelt and
that now they had come to President
Taft and he and the secretary OF the
interior had refused TO approve it."
