Unless They Ask for Their Liberty They Will Stay in Jail Until June 17. Although ackn.wiedged to be innocent @f the crime for which they are serving @ year in the penitentiary on Blac! wells’ Island, the authorities have made no effort yet to release Patrick Shan- non and John Henry. In fact, up to 4 o'clock this afternoon the men had not ‘been informed that they had been proven guiltless, and the chances are that they will serve out their terms, which expire on June 11, Assistant District-Attorney McManus ays this outrage, added to the law's mistake, Is due to the red tape required fn obtainin pardon. ry It will be necessary for the prisoners to take the Initiative in getting a par- don, he says, and as it takes five days at least to do so, he thinks that in view of the short time they have to serve it would be scarcely worth while to go to the trouble. In any event, nothing will be done unless the prisoners do it them- selves, ) The failure to notify the prisoners of the recent developments ts due, so War- den Pillabury said this morning, to prison discipline, which must be en- forceu, It would be contrary to rules to convey & message to the prisoners if it did not come from some official source, and Mr. Pillsbury has kept from the two men wearing prison garb the happy news that they can once again look any man in the face, and say: “I am inno- cent of any crime, though I was a con- viet." He said tho innocent men were per- “forming prison labor to-day as they have done since they arrived on the island on Aug. 17, 1894. - The reporter who had seen Warden Pillebury went fom Blackwell's Island to the District-Attorney's office, and i there found ¢hat although the fact had been known for two days that Shannon and Henry were innocent, there had been not a step taken to secure their \ release, Assistant District-Attorney McManus, who has charge of the case, was told that Warden Pillebury had refused to Rotify the men, and he replied that he would ask the Warden some time durin, the day to tell Shannon and Henry oi the stutus of thelr case. “Why don't you go ahead and get the parion?” he was asked. “Because the men must take the ini- tative,” he replied, “and, as they have only a’ few more days to serve, it would Beem Useless for them to do 80, There is a lot of red tape about get- if & pardon, you know,” he added, nd ff would take Ave days at least to do 60.
