GOVERNOR REFUSES
PARD0NS TO PAIR
SERVING TERMS

Sustaining the recommendation OF
the board of prison inspectors and the
Encouragement, Governor Pinkhapl
has denied the petitions for pardon
on behalf of Fugisaki Matsu-
ltaro and Funakoshi Tatsugaro, Iara.
.nese, who were sent up from Hilo
about 10 years ago on long terms for
their share in the famous so-called
Funakcshi murders.
Several other Japanese were sen
fenced for the same series OF crimes
but it is understood all have been
released and sent back to Japan save
these two Funakoshi was given an
opportunity to obtain his discharge
on the same condition last year but
refused to accept it, declining to leave
the islands. He is under a 30-yeaT
sentence and Is said to be suffering
from an abscess of the liver
The crimes in which they were in,
volyed were particularly atrocious. and
while there appears to be some doubt
concerning Matsutaro's guilt on the
charge for which he is serving time
the court records show that he was
convicted previously for a cold-blooded
murder at 0laa. Hawaii He was i'm
prisoned for that crime, but was par
doned and had returned to his former
haunts a short time before the muir
der occurred in which he is said Il
have been actively interested and fol
which he was again convicted and sen
fenced.
