however, so far as

situation, however, so far as I am able to learn, is unprecedented.
 Another man, under sanctity of an oath, with all the solemnity possible under the conditions, has confessed that he and not Stielow committed the crime. There is considerable of de- tail and circumstance in the King con- fession and in the facts surround ing it as yet unexplained and to me unaccountable. To be sure the King confession has been repudiated and so has the Stielow confession, with out which Stielow could not have been convicted.
 "I believe that Kings confession Is lie. I cannot escape the conviction. however, in the light of all that has been presented to me and which was not before me when I denied the last application for clemency after I had granted three reprieves, that there is possibility, perhaps more than a possibility, that this defendant is not guilty.
 'I think I am doing right in com nuting his sentence to Imprisonment for life. The procedure in the courts 1 has been correct, the action of the 1 judges on motions for a new trial has | been absolutely right. The King con- 1 fesslon, uncorroborated and repudiat- ed by himself could not be introduced | under our rules of evidence, has | been very clearly set forth by Justice Rodenbeck but believe, and I speak | from years of experience in the trial ] of criminal cases, that no jury in this l country would have convicted Stielow
 of murder in the first degree with the 1 King confession before 1t.
 T commute the sentence of the
 court to Imprisonment for life.''
 Another murder case which will re-
 quire consideration by the governor, is that of Stanley J. Millstein, who killed 1 a policeman in Utica. An application | for clemency will be argued before the l governor on Tuesday. The governor l will be asked if he considers it proper | to execute a youth of eighteen years who committed the crime when only l seventeen.

STIELOW IS SAVED
 BY GOVERNORS PEN
Whitman Believes Him Guilty
 But Is Greatly PerpIezed

fe Albany, Dec. Ex-Governor Whit Of Charles Frederick Stielow, who was sentenced to be executed at Sing Sing prison during the week of December II, to imprisonment for life. This is nounced on Irving Green, brother-in- law of Stielow, who pleaded guilty to murder in the second degree for the same crime for which Stielow was convicted-the murder of Charles D. Phelps, a wealthy Orleans county farmer and Margaret Wolcott. his housekeeper, at West Shelby on March 21, 1915.
 The case has been before the gover- nor several times since Stielow's con- viction and has weighed heavily upon his mind While he still believes that stleiow is guilty, he at the same time feels that it would not be right to permit his execution if there is the least doubt of the mans innocence. The absence in Canada of two persons who, it was asserted at the hearing on the application for communication before the governor on ednesday last, possessed knowledge that others than Stielow and Green were the mur- derers, it is believed had more to do with the governors decision than any other one consideration.
 "No other criminal case, where clemency has been asked, has per pIexed and distressed me as has this, Governor Whitman said in a state ment last night.
 "The crime, of which the defendant (Stielow) has been convicted is one of the most atrocious in the history o1 the state. Two burglars murdered ar unarmed man in his home in the dead of the night and added to the hideous. ness of their offense the murder of z defenseless woman fleeing for her life The intense feeling against the per. petrators of the crime in the com munity where it was committed ]: natural and is justified. realize tha a governor who interferes with { judgment of the courts of this state himself committing a law1ess act.
 Believes Stielow Guilty.
 'I believe that stielow is guilty Perhaps never, in the history o1 New York, has 8 man been afforded greater opportunity to establish his innocence, if that be possible. Twelve jurors and ten judges have passed upon this case without one dissenting opinion, indicated or expressed. I'm

He was born on April g, 1S47, in the little town of Ortona, in the Abruzzi. From his earliest years he showed a.. fondness for music, and when he was eleven years old his parents decided that he should make music his life's work and sent him to the Royal Col lege of St. Pietro a Mejella, at Naples. so that he might study the violin under Pinto. Tn addition, Sir Fran cesco studied composition under Cont and the aged Mercadante. The latter soon saw in him a pupil of great promise and had him appointed maestrino, or pupil teacher at a salary of sixty francs a, month.
 Soon after entering the Royal col lege Tosti was thrown on his own re- sources, and, finding that his sixty ] francs a month was inadequate for his 1 needs, he migrated to Ancona, where | ne gave lessons at 40 centirnes an ! hour. Here he suffered hardships, for i hls living was meagre, and he had dlfhculty in obtaining the bare neces- 1 slt1es or life. For many months bread i ana cheese and oranges were his only .1ood. Then his health failed, and he
 returned to his native town of Or
 tona, Where he was i'll for nearly a. year. During his illness he spent
 many hours in study and composition AlWays Tn his mind there were snatches of melody, and when he re- turned to Rome to resume work he
 LOOK "lth him two songs, Mon m ana
 plu ana Lamento d'Amore," which
 he mad composed. Publishers would
 not accept his songs, so he finally 1 saved enough money to have fifty | copies or them printed at his own ex
 pense. These he sold quickly more
 were ordered, and both songs became
 popular. Tosti sold both copvriehts
 for $1OO each.

the new musical school in Rome, who had many friends in high places and who organized a special concert for Tosti at the Sala Dante. This was a great success. Tosti sang several of his own compositions and the ballad "Eravi un Yecchio sene,' especially written for him by Sgambati, with such depth and tenderness that Princess Margherita di Savoja, later queen of Italy, appointed him her music master then and there.
 This appointment led to a, better one, that of keeper of the musical archives of the Italian court Tosti, however, for years had desired to get to England, where he felt that he would find a more apprec1at1ve pub lie. In 1875 he made his first visit there, taking with him his song For Ever and Ever This he offered to a number of publishers, all of whom refused it, saying that it was i'm possible.'' Finally, in despair, he managed to have it introduced into an operetta at the Globe theater, where it was sung superbly by Miss Violet Cameron The song immediately be- came the rage, and his other songs were accepted by the public with equal favor. Among these were: "That Day." "Verrei Morire,' and "Apr1le," while "Good- -bye," "The Venetian Song" and "Beauty's Eyes
 became popular all over the world. Some of these ballads have run through more than a, dozen editions and have been translated into eleven languages.
 In 1880 Tosti was appointed music master to the royal family, and numbered among his pupils Prince
 Leopold, Queen Alexandra, Princess Mary of Battenberg, Princess Louise, the Duchess of Argyle, and the Prin-
 cess of Wales. Tosti owed much of
 his success in England to the late
 Duchess of Cambridge For more
 than twelve years, during which she was an invalid, he sang and played to her and she used to say that his sweet
 singing did more for her than all the
 medicines in the world. She helped
 him in many ways to attain popu-
 larity, both as a composer and teacher.
 He was noted for his kindliness and
 sympathy and was entirely unspoiled . by success. He refused to be patron ized, though, and 1t is told of him that | a very fashiona ble woman called on l him one day and told him that she in- l tended singing two of his songs at | concert to which all Ge1gravia was l bidden. She informed the master that | she had called to try the songs over with him. He told her that if she 1 wanted lessons he would be glad to 1 accept her as a pupil. She then in- l formed him that she would not sing l the songs. Tosti at once advanced l toward her with outstretched hands
 and said with a smile: Madam. I l thank you sincerely for that favor" l Tosti was made Commander of the l Victorian Order in 1906. and two years later was made a Knight Commander ! by the late King Edward.
