RULES DOHERTY AGENT
KNEW OF STOCK FRAUD
Court Enjoins Payment of SIT, 900
for Union Public Service
. Company Shares.
Ry the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, May IA - Supreme
Court Justice Levy yesterday granted
an injunction restraining Henry L.
Doherty, surviving member of Henry
l.. Doherty & Co., from paying ST.
600 to Philip Francis for stock of the
Union Public Service Co, alleged by
three holders of the Sinaloa Explo-
: IA ion and Development Co. to have
belonged to that company. The de-
cision continues a temporary order
issued last year.
The Sinaloa stockholders contended
that Francis, who died since the tenn
porary order was issued, had dis
posed of the chief asset of their COM
rany without any right to do So and
that Henry L. Doherty & Co. knew
of the fact when the stock was
bought. .
Doherty commended that he was the
innocent purchaser of the stock from
Francis. Justice Levy, however
ruled that the agent through whom
Doherty negotiated had notice of the
opinion of Judge Martin r, Manton
of the United States District Court
holding that Francis had dealt in
Sinaloa stock in his own name.

Men and Women / Have
Executed

Armstrong grew out of the sudden
illness of friend and rival So
licitor, named Amory Martin. At
Armstrong; invitation Martin and
his family took tea with him. No
sooner had Lawyer Martin arrived
home, however, than he was taken
deathly sick and, suspecting poi
son, hastily called his doctor. He
remembered that Armstrong had
been particularly solicitous about
his tasting a certain wheat cake,
which his host passed to him with
the remark, "Please excuse my
fingers"
Martins doctor, on making in
quiries, learned that Armstrong in
a quiet way had been purchasing
a considerable quantity of arsenic
from the local druggist, and noti-
fled Scotland Yard, and Arm
strong was arrested for attempt
ing to poison Martin.
At the same time the authorities
began to look into the circum-
stances of the death of Arm
strong's wife. Her body, which
had been buried ten months In the
little village churchyard of Hay,
in Herefordshire, near the Welsh
border, where they lived, was ex-
humed and the organs examined
by Bernard Salisbury, the noted
British toxicologist. He discov-
cred the presence of arsenic in
every organ, including the brain,
and the charge against Armstrong
was changed to wife murder.
Although no motive for the MUIR
der was disclosed at the trial, it
was generally believed that Mrs.
Armstrong was poisoned to make
way for another woman whom
Armstrong had completed arrange
ments to marry just previous to
his arrest, and who created con-
siderable unsatisfied curiosity at
his trial.

aa official when reached Glouces-
ter Prison on the afternoon before
the execution, were to the effect
that he hoped | would be as gentle
as possible with Armstrong, as he
was not an ordinary man.
To say that | was astonished is
to put it mildly. The suggestion
seemed to me, in the first place,
that I was in the habit of dealing
cruelty with condemned prisoners,
and, secondly, that in any case
Armstrong was entitled to special
treatment. Can you wonder that
! was very resentful of such I'M
putations?

as he starts his journey to the pris-
on where a condemned man is
awaiting his doom.
Thus it has happened OCCASION
ally that an eleventh-hour reprieve
has completely upset my plans and
sent me back to my home without
placing the moose around his neck
as | had expected to do.
While many, perhaps | might
say nearly all, condemned men be-
lieve that something will intervene
to save them at the last moment,
yet my experience has been that
the eleventh-hour reprieve is so
rare that it is hardly worth talking
about. If the higher authorities
are going to stay the execution,
their decision is almost always
made known well in advance OF
the fatal day. Very seldom have
left home and arrived inside the
prison gate without being permit
ted to go through with my work
and execute the man | had come
to hang.
Sometimes the atmosphere of
the prison and the attitude of the
governor and wardens took me by
surprise. The prison keepers are
supposed to make no difference in
their treatment of or feelings to-
ward their various prisoners. "A
prisoner is good" or "bad," not
on account of the crime he has
committed, but whether he is a
decent, considerate prisoner or an
abusive, offensive nuisance in the
prison.
Sometimes / have found the
guards in the death cell and the
governor and head keeper glad to
welcome me, because it would then
only be matter of few hours
before the doomed prisoner would
be swung into eternity-glad to
welcome the man who was to rid
the prison of nuisance.
On the other hand, the person.
atty of the doomed man was sone-
times so engaging that on my ar
rival / found the deepest sympathy
throughout the whole prison for
the convicted murderer.
And so it was in the case OF
Major Herbert Rowe Armstrong,
the notorious poisoner, who sent
his death messages in poisoned
chocolates, who had so completely
won the hearts of the prison Off
Gals that | met with what | con-
sidered at the time personal in
suit.
That is the truth, and perhaps
it has some public interest because
it arose out of the fact that Arm
strong was a university man and
a lawyer.
| had followed the newspaper
reports of the murder and the trial
and I felt not only that the evil
dence proved Armstrong to be
guilty, but also that he was vile
sort of man who did not deserve
the pity one sometimes accords an
ill-educated man who perhaps
takes another persons life in a
moment of inflamed passion.
Major Armstrong murdered his
wife by secreting poison in her
food The first suspicion against
