After hearing the grounds upon which the application was made and the demand of the attorneys of the con demned man for a stay of execution until appeal could be taken to the United es supreme court, Judge Grosscup sent wing Judge Woods of telegram to the United States circuit court of appeals Hon.

His ob- ject in sending for Judge Woods was to se- cure his advice on the question of an appeal to the federal supreme court and an order staying the execution until the highest court in the land could be heard from. The court entered an order refusing the writ, but the question of an appe left undecided until Judge Woods should arrive.

The priest entered the little room and talked with Prendergast for an hour. The assassin seemed in good spirits and fre- quently smiled. This afternoon Mrs. Prendergast, mother ssin, came. There were tears in of the sorrowing woman as she appeared at the jail door. She brought her son a new suit of underwear and a clean white shirt. “I will se him after awhile for the last time," :aid Mrs. Prendergast with a shudder, as she sank into a chair. Later she entered the chamber of death to take final leave of her son. The scaffold was carried into the jail and put in place this evening. Late this afternoon Judge Gros cided not to interfere in the matter. When Prendergast was told at 5 o'clock this after- noon that there was no hope for a further stay of exccution of the sentence of death he would not believe it. “I still have hope that some sort of stay will be granted tomorrow,” remarked the assassin. “If 1 am hung it would be an official murder. I am not guilty of the crime cup de- of murder. No malice was shown in the trial, and the law says that murder is the malicious taking of a human life.

Later, the King yielding, the Japanese government appointed three commissioners to discuss the internal administration of the country. The condi- tions imposed by the Japane government in regard to the neutralization of the post of Chemulpo virtually nullify the concession, as Japan still insists upon retaining troops within the settlement. The foreign repre sentatives have reminded the Japanese gov ernment that their joint note, recently sent to Japan questioning the withd..wal of troops, still remains unanswered.
