C, FRIDAY, MOONEY PARDON OPINION STUDIED Governor to Delay Decision in California Bombing Case Several Days. | By the Associated Press. | SAN FRANCISCO, July 4—As Gov. | C. C. Young studied a long advisory | opinion from the California Supreme | | Court, Tom Mooney and Warren K. Bil- | lings today awaited his action which may end or prolong their imprison- ment upon conviction of bombing & Preparedness day parade xn 1917 The Governor was without the rocummendanon bccausc 01 a prior conviction against Billings, and | had declined to free Mooney uniess he could restore Billings to full cmunsh!p Two former chief executives wrestled with the pardon problem in response to | !a clamor, almost world wide in_scope, for their release. Only Gov. Young, however, carried his action so far as seek the opinion of the Supreme Court, But twice before, on appeals of various forms, the court had the case before it | and both times upheld the convictions. The United States Supreme Court aiso refused to review the case. In the years which have passed, how- | | ever, since the trial jury found the two | trade unionists_guiliy of planting the | bomb that snuffed out the lives of 10 persons, and injured 40 others numer- ous developments have changed | complexion of the case. Indictment of one of the State's chief witnesses for perjury, although he was subsequently | acquitted, influenced the trial jury to join the movement launched to liberate the two men. The foreman of the jury jand 9 out of 10 surviving jurors | have been quoted as believing the con- | victions were obtained on fraudulent tes- | timony. Although Gov. Young said he will be guided largely by the recommendation | of the Supreme Court he announced he | does not contemplate making public his final decision as to a pardon for | several days. Mooney "entered prison July 1, 1918 when 35 years old. Billings was 23 when he entered Falsom JURY FAILS T0 AGREE IN GINGER SALE CASE i First Hearing of Druggist on 85 Indictments Due to “Jake Leg” Disease Outbreak. By the Associated Press.

CALIFORNIAN PETiTIONS TO RECOVER $25,000 Says Bond Given Alien Property Custodian for Land Purchase Illegally Retained. Morris Stulsart, San Francisco, Calif. Jia Supreme Court to recover $25,000 which he claims is being retained by the alien property custodian and the treasurer of the United States. Stul- sart states that April 18, 1925, he con- tracted with the then incumbent of the | office of alien property custodian to buy certain lands in San Francisco Céunty which had been seized under the trading with the enemy act and de- posirtled $25,000 as a guarantee of good 1ait! Shortly afterward he was notified that the contract could not be carried out and the land was sold to other persons. Since that time he has made several futile attempts to get his money back, he says, and now seeks the aid of the court. He is represented by At. torneys, Peyser, Edelin & Peyser.

TROOPS T0 GUARD - PIPE LINE IN CUBA Sahotage Feared by French | Scientist Seeking to Har- ness Gulf Stream. at 2:25, 4:10, By the Associated Press. HAVANA, July 4.—Fearing that at- tempts will be made to wreck the mile- | long pipe line being built by Prof. ¢ | Georges Claude, French scientist, who | 1s experimenting with a plan to produce electrical energy frem the Gulf Stream, the Cuban government yesterday ordered | troops to Matanzas to safeguard the scientist’s laboratory from sabotage. Prof. Claude has started the construc- tion of a new steel tube, similar to that which was lost at sea while being | launched a fortnight ago. He says he | suspects hostile action on the part of power interests his invention might | supplant. At Matanzas a high steel fence has | been erected around his laboratory and workshops. A detachment of Cuban troops will remain there until after the new tube has been launched, August 10. Carlos Miguel de Cespedes, secretary of public works, visited the plant yes- terday, and upon his return expressed confidence in Dr. Claude’s plan. If it is successful, he said, the Cuban govern- ment will receive’ 25 per cent of the net profits from operations in exchange for the co-operation being extended the French scientist. Owing to the fact that machinery already is in place, Claude's new 5400- foot tube will cost only $170,000—a fraction cf the cost of the last one he built. Launching expenses, it is esti- mated, will Tun to $40,000. COX SELLS PAPER Brush-Moore Interests Buy the Canton Daily News.

RAILROAD SEEKS New York, New Haven and Crashing his way with Hartford Asks Valuation of Property. dare-devil courage and a laugh that rings true RICHARD The New York, New Haven & Hart- { ford Railroad Co. yesterday asked the | District of Columbia Supreme Comrt for & writ of mandamus against the Interstate Commerce Commission to re- | quire the commission to investigate, | ascertain and report the true value of the carrier’s property and to include therein the value of the estates and franchises of the carrier in the tracks | of the New York and Harlem Railroad | Co. from Woodlawn to Forty-third | street and in the Grand Central Termi- | nal in New York City and the Boston Terminal properties. The court is advised by Attorneys | Choate, Hall and Stewart of Boston and Harleigh H. Hartman of Washington that the commission reported its valu- ation of the company’s properties for “rate-making _purposes” January 14, 1930, to be $256,400,000, which included | $4,650,000 for working capital and de- nied any valuation of the terminals and approaches, The company points out that the Grand Central Terminal is lo- cated in the heart of New York City and the South Station is in the center of Boston and if proper allowance is made for the railroad’s interest and franchises therein a much larger valu- ation would be given the company's property. Irreparable damage will result to the | company, it is claimed, by the continued refusal to value these interests and the law provides no appeal from the deci- sion of the commission.
