MAGISTRATES WORD FINAL
Justice Golf Decides Against
Appeal for Disorderly Conduct.

The decision Of a city magistrate as 10
what constitutes a breach OF the peace
is final From Il there is no appeal So
ruled Justice Goff OF the Supreme Court,
Yesterday in dismissing a writ OF habeas
corpus obtained by Sidney Cohen in an
effort 10 get himself out OF the work
house.
Cohen held that he suffered a hardship
in being denied the right of appeal and
that there wasn't any such offence as dis
orderly conduct, anyway. In answering
the first point Justice Gof declared that
appeal was a matter of favor and not OF
right and that the Legislature could with
hold, qualify or limit II as II saw 1T. To
the second contention he opposed Section
!, i59 OF the New York consolidation act.
which, he said, vested in the magistrate
the authority TO sentence any person
guilty OF such disorderly conduct as in his
opinion tended TO u breach OF the peace.
That comforting such authority is with
In the legislative power there cannot be
question" said the justice, and the rea-
son for its exercise is apparent when 1t
il considered that It is beyond human IN
genulty in the use OF the English language
TO specify and particularize all the acts
Of reckless or vicious men In populous
city that may tend to breach OF the

TEST FOR BECKER ANN0YER

House Disturber Is Insane.
~ Telegraph 10 M TrlbLne. /

Albany, July Ex-Governor Sulzer APP
pointed a commission to-day 10 examine
into the mental condition OF Alexander
Skwirsky. the prisoner whose epilepuc
rawlings have upset Charles Becker and
the four gunner, sentenced TO die for the
murder Of Herman Rosenthal and the
other condemned men in the Sing Sing
death house. The commission comprises
DR.. James V. May. medical superintend-
ent OF the State Hospital prison; DIT.
Charles ". Pilgrim, medical superintend-
ent of the Hudson River State Hospital.
and Dr. r. r c. Kieb, superintendent Of
the Matteawan State Hospital
The commission was created as a re-
suit Of the report OF DR.. Charles W. Farr,
the prison physician, on Skwirsky's con-
dition which the new warden, James NJ.
Clancy. sent to the State superintendent
Of Prisons, John y. Riley.
"skwirsky is markedly defective men,
tally, and In addition Is an epileptc." Dr..
Farr reported. "He has numerous SELF
ures since he has been here. Following
each seizure he has a period of day or
two In which he is quite confused, and at
times becomes noisy.
I'm these cases il IS not unusual for
a progressive mental deterioration to APP
pear and terminate In epleptic insanity.
In the case of Skwirsky It is quite likely
that a definite insanity will appear before
the time set for bis execution. In all
similar cases 1t has been usual TO ask
the Governor to appoint a commission TO
examine a man in the death house VINO
has presented evidences of insanity

CARDEN|O KING DIES
DAY BEFORE PARDON
Continued from first page.

victed on twenty-seven Of thirty-one
counts, charging larceny and embezzIe-
ment.
The sentence of the court followed
dramatic recital in which King re-
viewed his life, his fight from Boston
and his travels in Europe and Asia. He
asserted that he was innocent Of any
wrong intention in any # his acts and
closed by accusing Thomas w. Lawson
of sec, lily fighting him and bringing
him to financial ruin. Later he male
repeated attempts 10 obtain a pardon.
Cardenio F. King became known in
New York in 1907 and 1905, and had well
fitted Offices first in Wall street and then
in a Broadway building near Madison
Square, where he took in considerable
money from investors in his "oil COM
panies." He lived in hotel in Seventh
avenue ard was familiar figure in the
night life Of the city.
King was born about forty-flve years
ago. Before he came North he repre-
scented several papers in his native state
as travelling advertising agent. He engl-
neered several newspaper league
ventures through the South and West and
syndicated industrial stories in New Eng
land newspapers. At one time he was
book agent and travelled through the
country selling THE Life of Christ"
While on Western trip King met the
celebrated sam" Crowther, who owned
ranch land In Texas and believed that he
had struck oil. From that meeting arose
the King-Crowther Corporation, which, IN
1901. was capitalized at S.OOoOOo.
II wasn't long before the flourishing
town of Crowther sprouted on paper, sur
rounded with oil derricks and containing
many handsome hotels. There was good
business from No s. Wall street after
that for a time until the State of Texas
heard about the matter and gave the gov
eminent officers the information that
there was no such place on the map. King
removed the King-Crowther properties TO
Maine, and started a newspaper In Bos-
ton, principally to boom the King-Crow-
Their properties" He became one of the
largest advertisers in the United States
and sold much stock here and in Mexico.
In his announcements King proclaimed
tkat he would always be an uncompromis-
ing foe to high finance, bitter enemy OF
tricks and things that were tricky in
corporation management, and that he was
opposed to stock gambling, to trading in
margins. to cliques. syndicates, rings and
wheels within wheels
When his offices We're opened at Broad
way and 26th street many floral tributes
were sent by admiring friends. King and
friends from Boston came to New York in
three chartered parlor cars TO be present.
The public was warned that King was
the same man who had been connected
with the King Crowther Corporation, OF
Texas. which failed in 1906 but that did
not interfere with large sales Of stocks in
the companies that King represented.
Even after King was arrested in Massa-
chusetts there were persons here who be-
lieved they would get back all they had
invested and more.
