Especial Correspondence of The Argus)
Washington, Oct. 6.-Now comes the
remarkable announcement that the
president has pardoned Edward A.
Boyle, John R. Coyle, Patrick ]. Hen
nessey and Thomas Kehoe, four for
mer government employees who were
serving sentences in New York for
with the $2,000,0O0 sugar
trust frauds.
This action has raised in the minds
of many the following query: Did the
fact that these men hoped for early
Pardons deter them from fully expos
ing the men higher up?
Benefciaries Go Free.
By placing steel springs in II pairs
of scales, the trust robbed the gov
ernment of more than S2,OO0,OOO. and
after being exposed admitted the crime
by returning the plunder. The secre-
tary and few minor employees were
sent to prison and four of them have
now been pardoned. The multi-mil

Speaks All Day Long.
The colonel made his first speech be-
fore he had finished breakfast, and
kept at it until late at night. before his
train left Knoxville for Atlanta He
said that he enjoyed the day i'm
mensely.
The colonel talked new national
ism" He brought into the south the
doctrine which he announced on his
recent western trip, and emphasized
it. He defended it from the criticisms
which have been directed against it,
and said that it was not revolutionary,
but rather was designed to put a stop
to things that might bring on a revo-
lutionary movement if unchecked. He
also put in a few words about his fight
in New York state, saying he was try
ing to improve conditions there
1t is quite a job he said, but we
are going to do it."

Springfield, H., Oct. 8.-Political
chaos, with startling possibilities so
far as the makeup of the next legisla-
ture is concerned, confronts both the
republican and democratic parties in
Illinois.
This is the situation as it is meas
ured by the politicians as a result of
the action of the Illinois supreme court
yesterday in granting leave for the fill

compel the state canvassing board to

nominees by each party in the recent

lionaire sugar barons into whose pock-
cts the $2,OO0.000 would have gone had
not the cheat been discovered, have
so far gone scot free.
Democrats and progressive republi-
cans sought, in the last congress to
bring about a congressional investiga-
ton of this fraud, believing it ridic-
ulous for the administration to assume
that a few SIS a week sugar weighers
would steal $2,O00,OO0 for someone
else and lay themselves liable to pen
itentiary sentences, unless they had
been bribed by the men or agents of
the men who would secure the pro-
ceeds of the fraud.
Taft Prevented Probe.
President Taft himself prevented the
congressional investigation by recon-
mending against it in his annual mes
sage to congress. He took the view a
probe might give immunity to the
men higher up

It developed that the president re-

only to raze the buildings on the

Final Effort Fails.
The final efforts to get Dietz to sur

and Attorney General Frank T. Gilbert,
upon leaving for Madison, said to Sher-
if Madden: do your duty.

from the law for all the alleged crimes
charged against him and the members
of his family with the exception Of the
Hortel shooting if he would surrender.
He was offered ample protection, legal
counsel and change of venue, but Dietz
insisted that all civil claims against
him must also be dismissed before he
would be captured alive. These civil
claims include judgments against him
amounting TO $4,000.

Dietz at one time yesterday after
noon walked into what was planned as
a trap, but the deputies who were sent
to point in the woods near where he
was standing did not arrive in time
If they had, the end would have come
then. Later in the afternoon Dietz re-
fused to leave the cabin, and the even
ing chores were done by the children,
Helen, aged IA, and Leslie. In the ev-
ening Leslie was seen going to the
barn with blanket, with the evident
intention of staying there through the

Nominations in Danger.
Should the supreme court declare
the Little" primary law invalid. all
legislative nominations made Sept. Is

The time limit for filing petitions for

Denver, Colo, Dec. 22.-Although some of the residents who live on Sixth avenue, Denver, may not have a chance to tread the street paved with gold in the hereafter, they can walk on silver while here, for at least part of that thoroughfare is paved with the metal. The streets is surfaced with slag from the dump where a quantity of silver bullion was run off by mistake many years ago, and was used before the fact was discovered. The American Smelling and Refining Company. which owns the dump, has stopped the removal of the valuab de- posit.
