 The law permits the governor to pardon prisoners and he would be legally permitted to pardon Leopold and Loeb,' c. D. Sutton, secretary to the governor. said. He was em- phatic in declaring that the matter was not in any way under consider ation.
 A. pardon would wipe away all court proceedings and charges and would restore the convicts to citizen ship, it was explained. A commuta- tion, power that also rests with the governor, would merely shorten the sentence.

 Rebels Block Peace Conference By The Associated Press.
 San Salvador, Republic of Saliva dor.t Sept. 11.--Adyices from Hon duras say the American charge d'affairs, Stokeley W. Morgan, has informed the rebel leader, General Gregorio Ferrera. that the holding of peace conference is impossible as long as the' rebels continue to advance on the city of San Pedro, in Sula. The rebels do not seem disposed to an immediate conven- ton based upon loyal execution Of the Amapala peace treaty, as they professed, MT. Morgan is said to have added.
 The American envoy also said he had received word from Washing ton to the effect that, if no settle. ment was reached between the war ring factions In Honduras, the American government would feel compelled not to recognize any rebel government set up by Gen eral Ferrera or to extend 1t any sympathy or moral support. In conclusion he appealed to General Ferrera to come to terms and me- gotiate permanent peace.
 Dispatches emanating from rebel sources deny that the insurrection- ists have been defeated in three battles, as claimed in Honduran government message from Teguci- galpa The rebels says the so- called battles were nothing but skirmishes between reconnoitering parties.
