STORY OF FINDING BODY
OF KITCHENER HELD FAKE
London Officially Reports Affair
Set Forth by Newspaper Man Is
Without Foundation.

.
LONDON. September 10. - The
home office has issued All official
statement summarizing its investiga-
tions into the alleged finding of
Field Marshal Lord Kitcheners body
in Norway and It's return to England.
The story of the whole affair as
arranged and set forth by Frank
Power. British newspaper man, is
declared TO be absolutely without
foundation.
The investigation proved, accord :
ing to the home office, that Power
purchased the coffin in which kitch-
ener's body was supposed to re-
pose when it reached England early
in 1926, and that the coffin never left
British shores. but was stored at
Newcastle until Power removed ii
to London. Every transfcrence of
the coffin in the interval is accounted
for.
Power, further. never applied for
the necessary permit to open grave
in Norway. where he asserted he
found kitchener's body, and nothing
is known of any such opening, al
though Power arranged for a mock
funeral at SStavanger with an empty
coffin which twas put aboard a
steamer. This later was returned to
the local undertaken from whom 1t
was hired. after film pictures were
taken.

THREE NURDERERS
 LOSE LAST FIGHT
Mass. Governor Refuses to Con-
 mute Sentences

Boston. Aug. Rl--In lonely cell. of the Charlestown prison death house, three convicted murderers counted the hours today that separ- ated them from the electric chair. Their last hope of escaping its tentacles had vanished.
 Buoyed up by the expectation that Gov. Alvan T. Fuller might inter- vene to save them from execution next week, John J. Devereaux. Ed ward J. Heinlein and John J. Mc- Laughlin had been confident until the ominous announcement came from the state house last night that sealed their doom.
 | The governor dismissed the slay- CTS appeal for communication in a | terse sentence. There Is no sufsi- cient Justification for my interven- tion," he declared.
 Coincident with the announcement came news from the prison that preparations for the execution were rapidly being completed and that the guards who pace the bleak corridors of death house had been ordered to redouble their vigilance.
 Action of Gov. Fuller was taken after he had listened to a plea by 1 the condemned mems attorney. Francis Jugglns, and had reviewed the report of Chairman Frank A. Brooks of the state parole board, who recommended that the law take lie Thn had before him the findings of four alienists, who yesterday examined the slayers in an attempt to sub stantiate the plea of counsel that Devereaux, admitted killer of James Ferneau, the aged watchman of Waltham car barn, for whose slay- ing the three must die, was of | weakened mentality.
 The alienists were unanimous in | declaring they could find no lack of mental capacity in Devereaux, who as World war veteran, was report ed to have returned home in shell shocked condition.
 A petition signed by 125,000 per- sons including three former gover- nors had been presented to Governor Fuller asking clemency for the mur- derers.
 The crime for which Devereaux, Heinlein and Mclaughlin will be put to death was committed last October while the three were engaged in robbing the car barn. Ferneau was struck down by Devereaux when he came upon the robber who was standing guard while his companions rifled the cashiers office. The case was carried to the supreme court which refused to order a new trial
