FOLSOM PRISON, Calif., August 14. —A room in Folsom Prison was trans- | formed into a court chamber today for the hearing by six Supreme Court | justices of Warren K. Billings’ plea for a pardon. The spectacle of Supreme Court justices convening behind penitentiary walls to hear a convict’s story is with- out precedent in California and be- lieved to be unique in the history of | American jurisprudence. Billings ‘and Thomas J. Mooney are | serving life sentences for the Prepared- | ness day bombing which killed 10 and | injured 40 persons in San Prancisco in [!915 Their fight for pardon on the | ground they were innocent and had | been convicted on perjured testimony | has been before the courts and Gover- nors of California for 13 years. Hearing to Begin. ‘The prison hearing will begin this evening after Folsom’'s 2,100 convicts have had dinner and have been locked in their cells. Every precaution was taken to safeguard the jurists and pre- vent any possible demonstration by the | prisoners, many of whose pleas have | been denied by the high court. Folsom contains only prisoners who previously have served one or more | penitentiary sentences. Its convict body is noted for being “hard.” San Francisco Meetings End. Meetings of the high court in San Francisco, where it has been hearing | other evidence on Billings’ pardon plea, were adjourned last night, but | will be resumed when the Folsom phase has been completed.
