 To McIaren also came telegram addressed to W. J. Burns, his chlet who is in Chcago and signed with the name of Theodore Roosevelt, de claring that all good American cItl- zens congratulatei him for his signal service to American citizenship"
 Tt could not be learned tonight that any change in the local sitaa- ton had been effected by resolutions adopte.l elsewhere urging the ex- treme penalty for James M McNam. ara. This matter, under law, is in the hands of Judge Walter Bordwell who presided over the trial during
 it's eight arduous weeks of fife. The judge may hear and the district at torney may make recommendations as to the penalty to be imposed Dis trict Attorney Frederieks said today that he had not decided whether ha would ask for elemency but he ad- ded.
 When man pleaus guilty, par ticularly in this case. 1t saves ths state great deal of money ano work. The state always is willing to take this into consideration. and Is inclined to look with leniency upon the offender.'' Y
 While Judge Bordwell has refused to commit himself in any way. persons close to him said he was pleased with the manner in which the trial hao terminated.
 Friends Of Attorney Darrow feai that he is on the verge of physl- cal breakdown. In the last few nights he has tossed about restlessly in his sleep and he has eaten little. His face today was white and haggaru Never before, he admitted had he encountered so terrible a strain. He was optimistic about his health, now eyeE saying he had faith in his strong constitution.
