Such an attack would not be permitted.

him with burglary and keep him In prison

OF both the form and the spirit OF the law
Mr. Carmody gave out this letter to the
Governor after several talks with the Ex-

no action In the case until he had con-
ferred with Commissioner Hand. The lat

over With the Governor the question Of ad-
nitting the testimony OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Schiff and Howard Cans the immunity

saw nothing about the case and did not
seem anxious to discuss it even with the
Attorney General. All he said was this:
II will go over the case with Judge Hand.
I want his investigation 10 be as wide and
sweeping as possible. so that the exact
truth and justice shall be brought OUT
The Governor has before him an applica-
tion from Delaney Nicoll, Of the Schifr
counsel, for permission to make an argu-
ment to him on the immunity question.
The Governor will take that UP with Judge
Hand, and will make no answer to Mr..
Nicoll before that time.
