TO SEE WHITMAN
IN STIELOW CASE
Counsel Will Ask Gov
ernor to Put Attorney
General in Charge.

James w. Osborne, special counsel
for Charles F. Stielow, under sentence
Of death in Sing Sing, last night wired
Misha Appelbaum, head Of the Humanl-
tartan Cult, recommending Governor
Whitman be asked to take the case out
of the hands of District Attorney John
C. Knickerbockep of Orleans County,
and designate Attorney General Wood
bury to take charge.
In response, Mr.. Appelbaum, whose
organization is financing Stielow's night,
left for Medina last night with Hunt
ington W. Merchant, of counsel in the
case. This morning the two will con-
fer with Mr.. Osborne, Stuart NJ. Kohn,
Stielow's chief counsel. and David A.
White, his counsel OF record. as to the
exact form the proceedings shall take
In his telegram to Mr.. Applebaum
Mr.. Osborne said:
Have evidence of the most sensa-
tional character proving guilt Of King
Inasmuch as District Attorney Knicker-
booker has suppressed a second confess
sion which King made to him in the
presence of Sheriff Nichols, deem it ad-
visable the Governor take the case out
of Knickerbocker's hands and appoint
the Attorney General to hear the evil
dence. Please take the o'clock train,
so VIC may have your approval OF the
plan and act accordingly"
"All we are interested in" said Mr..
Appelbaum before leaving, "is to get
the truth in this case. We are not out
TO prove one man innocent or another
guilty. We want the truth, and | be-
leve we have it.
"Mr. Osborne believes, and In this he
is supported by Mr.. Kohn and other
counsel in the case, that the interests
of Justice demand some one other than
Mr.. Knickerbocker be given charge or
the case, in view of the attitude as
sumed by him and his actions since
King made his confessions. There
should be no difficulty in convincing Mr.
Whitman, if he is as fair as he is re-
puted to be, that Knickerbocker is not
the man for this job"
Efforts of the Humanitarian Cult to
remove King from the Albion jail and
the jurisdiction Of District Attorney
Knickerbocker were blocked last night
by the refusal of Sheriff Nichols of
Cattaraugus County to demand or
Sheriff Bartlett of Orleans County the
return of King to face the charge OF
assault placed against him when he
was first arrested by Nichols.
Mrs. Grace Humiston, who is leading
the forces trying to prove Kings limo
cence. tried eight times to reach Sheriff
Nichols over the telephone yesterday.
When Nichols was found at night he
said: 81 will not demand Kings re-
turn from Sheriff Bartlett nor Will |
do anything else to embarrass the Or
leans County authorities"
