governor continues to run while tn,
prisoner is at liberty, the suprer,,
court yesterday morning handed dowr
a decision ordering Col. A. X. San.
ders, superintendent of the penitenti
cry, to release Grover Crooks from
his custody.
Crooks was convicted of assault and
battery in Oconee county in Novem.
Der. 1916, and sentenced to serve six
years. He was paroled December 22
1921, by Governor Cooper "during
good behavior" and September 49,
1922, Governor Harvey revoked the
parole because Crooks, he said, had
violated it's terms.
In the decision handed down YES
terday, written by Justice Marion and
concurred in by Justices Watts,
Fraser and Cothran, the court says
that the parole granted to Crooks die,
not suspend his sentence. but tha
Crooks remained in contemplation of
he law as if in legal custody and con-
tinued to serve his sentence. Chief
Justice Gary dissented from the opin.
ion. Crooks sentence had expired by
virtue of the operation of the law on
April 5, 1922, and there was no fun
tier service due the state by the pet
toner, the court holds.
The court draws a distinction be.
tween suspended sentence" and "con-
ditional pardon" along with "parole." "
The governor could grant a condi.
tional pardon or suspend sentence
and prisoner would be liable to com.

If the governor saw fit to revoke his
act giving clemency, the court says.
Crooks was in the custody of the
sheriff Of Oconce county at the time

Suffers From Competition

Toxic, Nov. 20.-The oil industry
in Japan which made noticeable de-
velopment under the protective policy
Of the government, is suffering great
ly fro mthe competition of foreign
oils. Under ordinary circumstances
the demand for oil revives at this
time of the year and the price shows

no particular demand. The conse-
quence has been that the stock con

York, Nov. 21.-The arraignment of
William c. FAIRIES on the charge of
killing four members of the Taylor
family at Clover was again delayed
today through the continued absence
Of Judge Peurifoy. who is in Colum
| bia.
York, Nov. 20.-A change of venue
will be asked when William C. Faries
is arraigned in court Of general ses.
sions here tomorrow, It was an
nounced today by his attorneys.
FAIRIES is charged with the murder of
four members Of the family Of James
NJ. Taylor at Clover, September 6.
The reasons for the motion, it was
said, will be that public feeling in
this county is against FAIRIES ana
that there has been too much news
paper publicity in connection with the
case.
The court failed to get under way
here today because of the absence
OF Judge James E. Peurifoy of Wal.
terboro, who was sitting in an en-
banc session of the state supreme
court at Columbia. Judge Peurifoy
expects to be present tomorrow, ac-
cording to communication received
from him by T. f. McMackin, clerk
OF court, and gave instructions that
jurors and witnesses be notified to be
on hand at 9:30 o'clock in the morn
ing. =,
FAIRIES will be arraigned some time
tomorrow but the understanding here
is that the trial will not begin be-
fore Thursday. The law provides
that an interval of three days be-
tween arraignment and trial shall be
allowed in such cases and it is un-
derstood here that this provision will
be invoked to defer the trial to Thurs
day or possibly Friday.
Because of the absence of Solicitor
j. X. Henry of Chester, due to
broken leg as the result of an auto
mobile accident, the prosecution will
be directed by Solicitor J. Monroe
Spears of Darlington. Assisting him
will be John r. Hart Of York and
John G. Carpenter and c. NJ. Austin
of Gastonia, N. c. The defense will
be conducted by Thomas F. Mellow
of York and Cole L. Blease Of Column
bia. Solicitor Spears arrived here
yesterday and Messrs. Carpenter ann
Austin spent several hours here this
: morning, during which a conference
was held and plans mapped out .Y6r'
the prosecution. Mr.. Blease is ex-
pected to arrive here in the morning
and be present at the ararignment.
Because of the expected arraign-
ment the necessary absence of Judge
Peurifoy not being generally known,
large crowd gathered about the
court house today and the approach
n" trinl was ;he chief topic Of dis.
'r:SsiGn. Among those here was j.
NJ. Taylor of Gastonia, father of three
of the four persons alleged to have
been slain by FAIRIES.
FAIRIES is in the York county Jail,
having been removed Saturday night
f"Cr he State renitentiary. where h.
"a. lodged for safe keeping few
hou"S after. the killing, reaching her:
It o'clock this morning. He is said
to be phlegmatic and undisturbed.
