New York.-Charles w. Morse form
erly banker, whose sentence OF H..
teen years in the Federal prison in At
lanta was commuted recently by Pres
ident Taft on representation that his
death was imminent, arrived in the
city from Atlanta.
Morse returned TO his old home In re
markably good condition for a man
whom the physicians gave only few
days, a month at the most" to live.
He stood the journey OF almost
twenty-seyen hours without showing
signs OF fatigue.
Mr.. Morse was convicted OF a misc
cemeanor and did not lose any civil
rights thereby. On January /, 1910,
however, the offence OF misapplying
funds OF national bank was made a
felony and had Morse been convicted
a';eI that date he would have beeu
{. Drived Of his right to vote as woll
as certain other civil rights. AS 1t is
now he suffers no disability whatever
and is as free TO go and come and en-.
gage in any form of business as though
he had received full pardon from the
resident instead Of Communication.
1t is Morse's plan to remain in New
York for about ten days and then to
go TO Europe TO take the treatT ent at
Bad Nauheim
At an indefinite date, dependent
upon a continuation OF his recovery.
Morse plans to return TO New York
for vengeance on those in Wall Street
whom he trusted and who. he de-
clares. turned on him when he was
down. and by legal process took from
him securities to which he claims he
is justly entitled.
