La Peine de Mort

CURRY'S INNOCENT MEN
GUILTY, SAYS SWAMI
Described Robbery in Detail, He
Asserts. Replying TO Priest.

District Attorney Swami replied yes
terday TO charges made by the Rev.
Father James b. Curry, pastor of st.
James Church. that while Judge Swami
was on the bench in General Sessions
two innocent men. indicted for robbery,
had been intimidated into pleading
guilty 20 second degree assault by "a
threat that a maximum sentence Gwen
IS years. would be imposed on them
as second offenders if they were con-
victed Of robbery.
Father Curry. through the newspa-
pers, says he has the confessions Of
four men who said they committed the
robbery for which Thomas McCrohsn
and James Sullivan are now doing
time said District Attorney Swami.
In the first place, can get the same
kind OF confession from dozen men
i'm the Tombs any day who will confess
20 save a fellow criminal who has less
time TO serve than he has. Second, .
man named Stapleton. now in Auburn
prison for burglary, is the only avail
able man of this quartet Of confessors
mentioned by Father Curry One of
them blew his brains out, and the other
two are somewhere at large.
Former District Attorney Perkins
investigated the story of this man Sta
pletOn and was convinced that McCro-
han and Sullivan was guilty.

Democratic House Leader and
Bailey Speak Strongly Against
"Militarism."

Washington. Feb. li.-As the antago-

Gently by newspaper articles limiting
that some Of Nr. Kitchin's best friends
were about to talk 70 him quietly about
the doubtful wisdom OF trying 10 be a
leader of the House and at the same
time remaining in the dwindling minor
ity on the defence measures. II so
happened that the stories were pub
lished before the best friends" talked
TO Nr. Kitchin, causing considerable
embarrassment among the North Caro-
lima delegation. Mr.. Kitchin spent
three hours in mis- seat IN the House
to-day and after conversing with sew
eral members issued the following:
There is not word Of truth in the
statement that there is a movement on
foot 10 depose me as majority leadcr.

"We were more unprepared for war
in 1895 than we are now" he said. "but

less. no creed but America, we must
feel it is the proper time to ask if the
American people show the belief in Mr.

those Of US who while recognizing Mr.

"His retention is expiicablo only tc-
cause of the Presidents loyalty to him,

Precious time was being wasted, Mr.

"For twelve precious months" Mr.

possibly fatal period we have done
nothing.
"To US who feel the whole life OF
the nation rests upon the prompt on
actment and proper execution Of full

expressed views do not mean accom-

"ln a word, it is apparent that the

spiration or judgment to recognize the
greatness Of his task and bring TO his
aid industrial leaders capable OF han
ding great enterprises and though
