Mother Jones, heroine of countless
miners strikes, and John D. Rookie
Teller, .Jr., who, some day, will have
most of the Rockefeller billion. They
are working to give Copies a chance,
in repayment for the life of Snyder.
Coppes does not know that he is
the central figure in the drama. He
does not know that Mother Jones and
Rockefeller, bitter foes for years, are
united for once, in hope OF freeing
him, that he may take up lifes duties
that were denied Snyder.

er Jones so bitterly attacked Rookie
Teller, an owner Of the mines at Lud-
low, that the young multi-millionaire
agreed, 1t is said, to repay the life OF
the miner with deed that would
recover another youth for society.
The time for repayment came to-
day. Mother Jones, her attorneys
said, secured the promise of Rookie
Teller to pay all fees and to aid in
every way possible the campaign to
free young Coppes.
Coppes, when youngster Of four
teen. killed Mrs. Maud Sleep and her
two children with an axe at their
home near Plano, Ill.
Though the murder was brutal and
one of the most sensational crimes
in the history of Illinois, Mother
Jones declares he was q victim Of
circumstances. His environs, she said,
was such that could produce nothing
but a criminal.
Mother Jones spent most Of the
week in Chicago, comforting with at
tosneys and one day visited young
COPIES but did not tell him Of the
plan to free him. His liberty rests
with Governor Dunno and the state
board of pardons.
