M'NAB SAYS JUSTICE
HAS BEEN THR0TTLED

San Francisco, June 25.-John l..
McNab, former federal district at
torney in San Francisco, in brist-
ling statement here today, uttered
his final word to the department of
justice, with which he is no longer
connected, his resignation having
been accepted following his charges
that Attorney General McReynolds
hindered his work.
McNab charged that the attorney
general attempted to throttle justice
and save his rich and influential po-
litioal friends from Just and right
eous trial.
mo one in California will be for
an instant deceived by the lame and
puerile defense OF the attorney gen.
eral to the president" said McNab.
"He says that | should have wired
to remind him that had three times
warned him that postponement
would be secured through political
influence at Washington; that our
witnesses were being suborned, and
one OF the defendants attorneys was
jailed for attempting to corrupt wit
nesses.
"He wanted all these cases post
poned, with view that they would
be throttled and his rich and infiu'
entail political friends be saved from
trial"
McNab appeared in Judge Var
Fleets court today and made for
NAL announcement OF his severance
from the department of Justice HI
expressed his appreciation OF the
courtesy with which his office hal
been treated by the courts and de
clared that the past year had no
only been the most useful but alst
the most pleasant in his years o
public service.
Judge Van Fleet declared with
out reference to the nature OF you
departure, ! would be saying les
than the truth II ] did not state tina
the government is losing a mos
painstaking and efficient prosecu
ting officer. 1t is with sincere re
gret that we learn you are retirin
from office"

San Francisco, June 25.-Aiter
United States District Attorney John
l.. McNab had received President
Wilson's acceptance of his resigna-
ton, he issued a long statement, in
which he said, in part;
THE president has accepted my
resignation. and the incident is
closed Even the eminent respecta-
bility Of the president and his full
some but necessary certificate Of
character to his attorney general
cannot change the facts.
"If the attorney general can de-
clare men innocent in spite of the
overwhelming evidence submitted to
two grand juries, he can easily de-
clare men guilty against whom there
is no evidence.
"If It was right in May to tell me
he could, It is wrong in June to tell
me to stop. If It was right In June
to tell me to stop, it is now wrong to
say that the cases must Immediately
proceed. Today ! am driven to quit
this office because my self respect
will not suffer delay Tomorrow the
administration will hastily proceed
with the trial because It fears It will
lose the public respect"
Before the announcement that Nc
Nabs resignation had been accepted,
the members of the federal grand
jury, which originally indicted Off
cials Of the Western Fuel company,
sent long telegram to President
Wilson strongly upholding McNab
and denouncing Attorney General
McReynolds for his action in order
ing a postponement Of the trial. The
message said in part
We cannot refrain from express
ing our protest that after ten days
of earnest labor, devoted to consid-
Grafton Of the evidence against these
defendants, our work is swept away
by the autocratic act Of an adninis-
trative official This grand jury, re-
posing the highest faith In your
rectitude of purpose, appeals to you
to psblicly discountenance the action
thus taken and to uphold the hands
of the United States district attor
ney in vigorous prosecution Of al
the defendants withoU fear or IA
