Office Is Not Sought and Only the Will of the Convention Will Be Considered—Si'ence the Watchword. CHICAGO, June 18.—Congressman | James A. Hemenway, of Indiana, made the most specific statement to-day that has yet been uttered regarding the de- Mires of Senator Fairbanks for the Vice- Presidency. “H ewill take the position,” sald Con- fressman Hemenway. “but he will not Ask for it, nor will he express a desire for it. He does not hink that thero should be a scramble for the office, and he wil only say that he will accept it after he has been elected for tt. “Does that mean that when the roll of States is called for the presentation of candidates for the Vice-Presidency, That Indiana will not present the name Wf Senator Fairbanks?" “It means exactly that," said the fongressman. “Indiana wjll not pre- vent the name of Senator Fairbanks, ‘r any other man, nccording to the present programme. If the Senator is nominated he will take the place, and that {s all, and I might as well add right here that all attempts to get him to make a statement will be fruitless. “He will say nothing elther one way wr the other, but ff the Republican farty desires to have him in the sec- wna place on the ticket, he will accept it after he has been chosen. That is as far ax he will go, and that is as far as Indiana will go in pushing his candidacy. Of course the State takes fts cue from the attitude of the Sena- tor, and the situation I have described wili continue until somebody Is nom- inated for Vice-President.” It was expected that headquarters would be opened this morning at the Stratford Hotel by Congresman Histt, of Ilnolls, who ts a candidate for Vic President. Owing, however, to the fact Washington, it decided by “his friends to run ‘his gn from the headquarters of the that Mr, Hitt is i in was is delegation, and the plan of on independent gathering place for Mr. Hitt's frie as abandoned. ‘The ght over the chairmanship of the. Minois delegation was growing warm to-di and Will probably reach the climax Monday.

Another cause for the discharge of the jury was the opinion of the Appel- Yate Division of the Supreme Court yesterday. in the case of Eugene A. the trial Justice erred in keeping tha jury out after they had announced their Inability to agree.

The cabby'’s number was taken but the woman refused to give her name. She sald she was Interested in animals and thought the horse looked tired and had thired him for the day just to give him a rest. She admitted having stapped a number of times since left home, but it was only on account of tho horse, When the caty finally succeeded, with the ald of the officer, in assuring the woman that ‘she needed a rest worse than the horse the cab was driven ut a brisk jog down Central Park West. s The cabby refused to give the name and address of his beautiful fare, who, he sald, had given him a twenty-dollar Dill just before they stopped at Morn- Ingside Park and told him ‘to be good to his horse.” re ST.

NEW POINT RAISED IN HIS APPLICATION. Jerome Opposes the Move Holding that Law Recently Ef- fective Does Not Help Pris- oner—Adams Looks Well. (Special to The Evening World.) WHITE PLAINS, N, ¥., June 18.— With downcast eyes but a quick step, as though he felt that freedom was near, “Al'" Adams, the former policy king of Manhattan, was led by two keepers from Sing Sing prison into the Supreme Court room here before Jus- tice Keogh to-day, where argument was made for his release from Sing Sing cn the ground that he had been Iilegatly sentenced and fs belng illegally detained as a prisoner. Adams's hair !s much whiter when he was first sentenced and there is quite a prison pallor upon his cheats. When asked how he felt he replied: “Oh, pretty well, thank you.’ His lawyer, Abram 8. Rose, of Wel- Rose, iratsed the novel that under the sentence imposed on Adams no one knows when his term of expires, and on this ground his sentes#™ to an indeterm!- | nate period was illegal, as twenty Gays before he was sentenced the law was | changed so that indeterminate sen- tences should be without commutation. Fine Point Ratsed, the question raised Is, Now when | does Adams's sentence expire? It would close next January, but under the law Warden Johnson says he cannot re- lease him then. ‘The interest of the people was looked after by Assistant District-Attorney Howard 8, Gans, of District-Attorney Jerome's staff, and he bitterly opposed the motion to re- lease Adams. A new question has been raised in the appeal as to whether Adame Is legally held a prisoner. Lawyer Rose says that Adams has served his sentence and paid his One, and, as he has suffered the penalty of the fine, he should be dis- charged. “The law," sald Mr, Rose, “requires that prisoners confined on indeter- minate sentences, as the defendant was, shall be discharged only between the months of April and October. ‘The com- mutation for good behavior being taken into consideration in fixing the sentence In the case of Mr. Adams, the commu- tation was considered and his sentence would expire in October next. “But the Court overlooked the fact that about eleven days before Adams was sentenced the law was changed, so that indeterminate sentences should be without commutation, It is an old and fixed principle of law that a man can- not be placed in jeopardy a second time for the seme offense, Thére 1s During the argument when Lawyer Rose sid Adams was Ilegally held the convicted man nodded his head in approval. Can Renentence Him, The Prosecut Attorney in answer held that if the Judge wilo sentenced Adams made a mistake, an he had to do was to resentence him. “The Court of Appeals,” said Mr, Gans, “amirmed the conviction of the ‘defendant on a peal, ‘The fact that a year has expire Bhd that the prison board ha does not ¢ Court can do to parole Adam: situation, Ail th make the se Pext instead of January. as It will ex. pire, “The Judge can say he made a mistake in the sentence and change it cordingly, Scour contention {6." added Assistant District-Attorney, Gans, “that thes tence has been Imposed upon this de fondant, and that IC Is valid up to nose Gotaber, and will become Invalid if at Qttempt is made to restrain the defant- ant beyond that time.
