CONVICT FREED BY CONFESSION OF GUILTY MAN ‘Serving Time for a Robbery Which Another Admits He Committed. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. Nov. 20.—Governor Murphy to-day commuted the sentence of Jokn Echols, who has served three of his ten s' sentence, to four years. will soon walk forth from the penitenti- ary. His imprisonment was the result of a conviction for stage robbery, and the commutation is prompted by the startling confession of King Ussery, a noted crimi- nal, who says he was the gullty person, arranged his plans so that About three years ago a stage running between Prescott and the Crown King mine was held up by a lone robber in the ird | mountains near Gladlator Mill.

He employed Thomas Flan- an of Phoenix to defend him. “I will pay you also to defend Echols,” he once said to Flannigan. *I don’t know the man, but am convinced of his inno- cence.’” Tchols was sent to the penitentiary, Ussery was acquitted and within o as arrested again for “cattle rust- ling.” He escaped jail at Globe, but was recapture and when he saw the peni- tentiary staring him in the face he wrote to his attorney, confessing his guilt in the Gladiator mine hold-up and exonerating Zchols, who, he said, knew nothing about it.

Miss Brandon at the end of the after- noon swooned on the track and lost a great deal of time.

T ARG Leading politicians ¢id not fail to ob- | serve that United States Senators Bard and Perkins made the recommendation to flll the vacancy in the office of Collector of Customs without consulting the wishes of other members of the California Con- gressional delegation. ~ Representative Loud evidently anticipated that the Sen- ators had resolved to control the Federal | appointments, as he did not expr | surprise when he asceriained that | ommendation for the Collectorshi | been made without his knowliedge. Representative Kahn was taken by sur- | prise. When he learned that F. §. Strat- | ton had been recommended he was Indig- | nant. On the quiet Representative Met- calf’s views may have been solicited. Per haps, on the assurance th of the Alameda aspirants would office | anyway, he did not furth sclf. Representative Nee District is long, and In place: he had affairs of his own ter mand his attention. It is a well-grounded belief that the California Senafors in Congress have re- solved to adhere to the plan of exclusive | | conferences in dealing with the future dis- { tribution of Federal patronage in Califor- nia. This custom of giving to the Sen- ators the exclusive power of recommenda- tion for appointments is well established in many of the leading Eastern Congres- slonal delegations, but it has not been strictly_honored by California Congress- Tt o p had A s wide. Hence | ritory to com- i men. For ten years prior to the election | of Thomas R. Bard this State had only one Republican in the S Now there | from this stration 1s | are two Republican Senators commonwealth and the admink Republican, The conditions, therefore, | are favorable for Senatorial control of | the Federal patronage. When Stephen M. White, a Democrat, | was the colleague of Senator Perkins, the latter was often compelled to seek the | support of Republican members of the | | House in order to carry out his plans. [t | _ is doubtful if Senator Perkins could have | secured the appointment of Colonel J. P. Jackson to the office of Collector of Cus- | toms_without the assistance of Republi- | can_Representatives in Congress. Joseph | S. Spear Jr. had strong indorsements—so | influential was his support that the Sen- | ator had a long and hard battle to obtain | the office for Colonel Jackson. many cloge heart-to-heart talks during the last three months. The subject of | Federal patronage in California was fully | fscussed at thelr secrei conferences in | Orange County. It appears to be under- stood that Senator Bard will name the | successor of John C. Lynch, Collector of Internal Revenue, and Frank L. Coombs, | United States District Attorney. Lynch's appointment to a lucrative Federal office caused some astonishment in California, but his early retirement will produce | neither surprise nor regret. Senator Perking will attend the confer- | ence of the Valley Development Assocla- | tion at Sacramento next Saturday. Ben- ator Bard has been obliged to send his regrets to the Sacramento cormittee, as existing enfiflg@menls will not allow him | to attend the meeting. Representative Loud has made arrange- | ments to leave San Francisco to-day for | Washington. He suspects that the Sen- | ators have resolved to dispose of the Fed- eral patronage in_their own way. Representative Jullus Kahn expects to leave San Francisco for Washington next Sunday. W. B. Lardner, State Senator-elect to | represent the counties of El Dorado and Placer, is in the city, A. E. Muenter, Stats Senator-elect from Ban Joaquin County, was in the city yes- terday. | H. 8.

Stow's loss Is a serious one. He would undoubtedly have been in the line | | o $ho b eleven because he ranks as one | of the best guards that ever played with the blue and gold. Weighing 1% pounds | snd coming from Belmont with the sobri- | quet “The Human Plow,” Stow was ex- | | pected to be one of the shining stars in | the intercollegiate game; but parental rotests could not overcome, and he as stepped out.

The crowd seemed to possess a good line on the mud- larks and administered another sevore walloping to the bookmakers. Four heav- ily backed favorites, a second and a third choice, each weil supported, contributed to the depletion of the ring's exchequer. Pi.an, a_ Strathmore horse from Ryan's stable and a 7 to 5 choice, took the first event, a short sprint, in clever fashion. ing-a-Ling put up a stiff wrgu- ment to within a sixteenth fcom the wire, where he flattened out, iasting long enough, however, to beat Eight Doilars for the place. Such a good thing was Bab, a filly sporting the Schorr colors, one of six in the two-year-old scramble, that the smart ones were willing. to ac- cept any sort of a short price. She closed a 1 to 2 chance, and in a rattling arive Kiley on David S outfinished J. Miller astride the favorite, getting the verdict by a nose. Miller was severely criticized, as the close observers thought only care- lessness lost the race. Louis Ezell's mare, The Lady, came in for big backing to win the mile purse run. She scemed to like the going and under Kiley's excellent handling defeated Gon- falon with something in reserve. Green- ock came out sore after his run in the Opening handicap, appearing unable to raise a gallop. No liberties were taken with Hermoso by the books and at odds of 7 to 20 the big chestnut won the next number as he pleased. MacLaren, a 60 to 1 shot, chased the winner to the stretch, finally losing the place to Horton, the second choice. Owing to an injured hoof Autumn was excused from being a starter in the mile and a sixteenth run and a tremendous plunge was made on The Fretter. From twos_the colt’s price was forced down to 4 to 5, and he simply smothered Rio Chico and Acrobat. is was one of the se- verest blows dealt the ring. Miller redeemed himself partly by ecap- turing the last race of the day with Darn- erfield. The Schorr colt had speed to urn, and, catching the leg-weary Sad S8am as the wire was approached, won driving by less than a length. Screenwell Lake, the favorite, finished fourth. Track Notes. J.
