1 chosen for the next year, John H.

Oldest Convict Seek Release.
Hartford, Conn., June 10. Among
the half hundred petition laid before
the Connecticut board ot pardon for
consideration and action today was
an application for the pardon of John
Warren, who is serving a life sentence
in the state penitentiary at Weath
ersfield. Warren haa the unenviable
distinction of being the oldest con
vict in the United States in point ot
service. He had Just attained bis ma
jority when he was received at the
penitentiary to begin a Ufa sentence
for the murder of his young wife. To
day he is an old man of 74, with a
record of 53 years spent behind pris
on walls. The state board of pardon
is familiar with every detail of War
ren's case. Seven times has the board
considered a petition for the old man's
release and seven times has the peti
tion been turned down. Whether the
eighth petition will meet with a sim
ilar fate will soon, be known. War
ren has been a model convict and
it Is safe to aay that there Is not an
official or inmate of the state prison
who would not be glad to learn that
the old man would be released to
spend his last years In freedom.
