wns told that on a presentation of the
transcript, showing on Its faco rea
sonable grounds, such a request
might bo granted. Being ratuUhtr
with tho caso, Mr. Newport concluded
It would bo useless to make a formal
application. Tho counsel made a
plea boforo tho governor for oxcutttlvo
clemency, asking u commutation of
tho death sentence to life Imprison
ment. Tho governor declined to
