APPEALS MADE TODAY, ° But Mr. Cleveland Refuses Them—The “Death Watch” Set on the Condemned ‘Man—He Will Be Closely Guarded From Now Until His Execution. Among the President's callers this Pray was Representative Oates of Alabama, who lives a few doors from the Schneider residence in this city. He told the President that he had been im- plored by Schneider's mother and sisters to Prefer a request to the President, and he was constrained by their grief to at least commun- icate their petition, which he would do, but without recommendation. ‘They bad asked him to request the President to grant them an audience. COULD NOT GRANT THE REQUEST. The President replied that he could not grant their request for an audience, as it would not affect the condemned man’s caso in any man- ner and that an interview with him could not Tesult to their benefit or relief in the least. Mr. Oates said he had anticipated this reply and would not attempt to question its wisdom. Mr. Oates had declined to add his own inter- cession to their appeal for executive clemency in Schneider's behalf. althouzh he had been re- quested to do so by the family. Private Secretary Thurber was asked by a taken in the Schneider case. He replied that he would be obliged to refer that inquiry to Mr. Mattingly, the attorney of the condemned man. THE LAW MUST TAKE ITS COURSE. Later it was learned from the President that Schneider's case had received his thorough at- tention. The President wasengaged in looking through the papers last night and until nearly 2 o'clock this morning. Every phase of the case bad been reviewed and the President decided that he could not interfere with the execution of the sentence, but would allow the law to take its course. SCHNEIDER'S SPIRITUAL ADVISER. Early this morning Schneider's spiritual ad- viser called upon the President and secured an He entreated the President to grant Schneider clemency and intimated that the —— not had time to prepare himself spirit for his approaching end. “df you will pledge me your honor that such is the case I may consider the advisability of giving him a few days.” The ‘was not given, however, and the interview closed with this. ‘THE DEATH WATCH SET. Howard J. Schneider late yesterday after- noon was given the most direct intimation of the short lease of life remaining to him that he had apparently yet received when at 6 o'clock what is known as the “death watch” was placed over him. Unless the Pres- ident interferes through a respite this watch over the condemned man will not be relaxed until the march to the scaffold is taken up next Friday morning. ‘The “‘death watch” is the placing of an offi- cer of the prison just outside the cell of the doomed man, where the official, from his posi- tion, may see through the open iron work of the ‘cell door every movement of the prisoner. This watch of the man will be relieved every hour or so.” Following the pre- ceden. set by his predecessor, Warden Crocker, Warden Burke will hereafter permit Schneider to be interviewed presence of an officer of the jail, and the privilege of holding such interviews in the office of the Prison will hereafter be refused, no exception ing made even in the case of the family of the prisoner, so a reporter of THE STAR was in- formed by Warden Burke yesterday afternoon. NO FOOD FROM OUTSIDERS. ‘The warden also informed the reporter that hereafter no food brought to Schneider from the outside, by his family or by any one else, will be allowed to be partaken of ty him, but that the man will have prepared’ for him by the steward of the jail any reasonable delicacies which he may desire. The wretched man wascarefally searched yesterday, as was his cell, that he might not have concealed anything with which a desperate man might injure himself or others. The cards of admission to witness the execu- tion authorized to be issned by the warden of the jail were sent out yesterday afternoon, and as ‘the full number authorized by’ law was issued the warden stated that un- der no circumstances would he issue additional ones, No person will be admitted to the prison unless such a card is presented. Under the sentence imposed upon Schneider he will be hanged between the hours of 8 a.m. and 12 m. Everything is in readiness for the execu- tion; the rope has been tested and the drop placed in perfect working order. As stated in yesterday's Sta, the informa- tion that the Supreme Court had refused to in- terfero in his case was imparted to Schneider shortly after the decision was rendered by one of the jail officials, the prisoner's cnly comment being: “Go away.’ Don't bother me.” SCHNEIDER REFUSED TO TALK. Schneider was seen in his cell yesterday after- noon by a Stas reporter, but the man refused to say anything whatever. He was found sit- ting on the end of his cot at his cell door smoking a cigar, He was bent for- ward, his left elbow resting on his knee. The cigar was held in his left hand, his right hand resting easilyon his hip. As ‘he slowly put the cigar in his mouth and lazily puffed away at it he appeared to be in deep thought and apparently totelly unconcerned as to any matter whatever. An old slouch hat was pulled down well over bis eyes and he was Gressed in rather shabby clothing. His hair has been trimmed, but not his beard, his general appearance being somewhat improved in con: sequence. When told by Deputy Warden Russ a few days ago that his hair must be cut Schneider ted for a time, but when he must he submitted without any further remonstrances. Such, too, was the case when informed several days ugo that he must submit toa bath.

One of the letters stated that Mr. Woodhouse, the English consul general at Honolulu, bad up to the time the steamer left there not called upon the members of the pro- visional government nor extended to them any of the usual courtesies.
