Statements.

Washington, July 6.-The action Of
h state department in disclaiming re-
sponsibility for published statements
criticising conditions in Albania credit
ed to George Fred Williams, American
minister to Greece. %attarcted wide
spread attention in official and diplo-
matte circles here today.
Secretary Bryan IN a foemal state
ment repudiated the alleged utterances
of Mr.. Williams, declaring that they
were made solely on the minister's own
authority. This step. which Is said to
have been suggested by President Will
son himself, was regarded as highly
significant in official circles.
Coming at this time after officials Of
the government had heretofore de-
clined to comment on press dispatches
quoting Minister Williams as having
attacked Prince Of WED and his gov
nme in Albania, the action occa-
stoned considerable comment. Although
press dispatches reported that the min-
lister had rendered his resignation. it
had not. SO far as could be learned.
reached the department early today.
Secretary Bryan announced that Mr..
Williams was authorized by the de-
partment to visit Epirus and observe
conditions and report. This report had
not reached Washington when the de
partment closed late yesterday. wheth-
er 1T would arrive today could not be
foretold.

GOVERNOR BYRNE TO
GRANT FULL PARDON
FOR C0L0RED LITER
Had Killed Rowdy in Fight at
Aberdeen-Incident Close
to Self Defense.

Sioux Falls, S. D., July Another
man serving life sentence at the PEN
itentiary is about to be made happy.
The pardoning board has instructed
Governor Byrne to grant a pardon to
Othar M. Huff. a colored convict, sent
to prison on a plea of guilty.
HUH was mixed in a barroom fight
at one Of the leading hotels at Aber-
deem in the winter of 1867. A gang
OF rowdies of which a man named
welsh was a member, began abusing
the colored man and when HI showed
resentment Of their language the gang
started to clean Huff out. Huff, who
at the time was a porter in an Aber-
deem barber shop, drew a revolver to
defend himself and at the trial claimed
that he shot Welsh in self defense.
During the excitement that followed
Huff made his getaway and went into
the country and was found later by a
sheriff's posse buried in a straw stack
and nearly frozen to death.
He pleaded guilty to murder in the
first degree and was sentenced to life
Imprisonment in the Sioux Falls PEN
itentiary. Several months ago Huff,
believing that he had been punished
enough for the killing of Welsh secured
an attorney and the work of procuring
a pardon was taken up.
