WASHINGTON, June 25.-Fol-
lowing close on the Diggs-Caminetti
case, another bomb was exploded in
the camp of the democratic admins
tration tonight, when the charge was
made that the mandate of the su-
preme court for the carrying out OF
iail sentence in the case of Frederick
A. Hyde and Joost Schneider, con-
victed of California land frauds, has
been held up in the Office of President
Wilson.
It is asserted that great influences
have been at work to keep Hyde and
Schneider from serving their sentences
and that President Wilson had called
for the papers in the case and had
held them in his office since shortly
after he came into office.
PRESIDENT RETURNS PAPERS
Late yesterday. while the Diggs-
Caminetti case was in full glare of the
public, the president gathered the
papers in the Eyde-Schneider case to-
gether and sent them back to the de-
partment of justice without comment.
Those who are attacking the ad-
ministration for the postponement Of
the prosecution against young Diggs
and Caminetti, the latter being the
son of the new commissioner of immi-
grafton, now bring the Hyde-Schneider
case to light as another example of
what the administration is doing.
The statement is made that Hyde and
Schneider were convicted of land frauds
five years ago; that an appeal was
taken to the supreme court which, by
the margin of one vote, upheld the sem
tence of the lower court, both men
being ordered to pay their fines and
serve their terms of imprisonment
PARDON APPLIED FOR
The decree OF the supreme court was
handed down June 10, 1912, and an ap
plication for a pardon was Immediately
filed with the department or justice.
The writ Of mandate ordering the men
to jail was suspended pending the dis
position of the appeal for a pardon,
which Attorney General Wickersham,
after considering all the facts and mfti-
eating circumstances. recommended
favorably.
President Taft considered the recon-
mendation OF Wickersham, but refused
to grant the pardon. Right after Presi-
dent Wilson came into office the efforts
to obtain a reversal of Tafts judgment
we're renewed. The president sent for
the papers in the case, which included
the recommendation Of Mr.. Wickersham.
Ever since that time the papers have
