Murphysboro, 111., June 29. Ellston Scott, Illinois' most reprieved mur derer, sits calmly in his cell in the county jail here, confident he never will hang for the murder of his sis-ler-in-law at Oanbondule last summer. Scott was sentenced to hung October 10th last but has been .reprieved five times by Governor Dunne. His latest reprieve gives him life until July 14. The many reprieves grow o"t of a dispute between Governor Dunne and Sheriff White of Jackson county. Shortly before the date set for Scoli's hanging here Joe Debcrry, another negro murderer expiated his crime on the gallows. Large posters announc ing that moving pictures of the ha inw would be shown at a local Hav ing picture theatre reached Governor Junne. lie maue an jnvesuuauun .onrl. iiprnrdine- to his statement, two fVinusnnil nnrsons. most of who had nnirl S2 for their tickets, saw the De- bery hanging. Believing the hanging of Deberry a disgrace to Illinois Gov ernor Dunne, shortly ncrore ne uuix Scott was scheduled to hang, wired Sheriff White of this county to send him the specific number of persons who would witness the execution. Sheriff White replied by stating he would comply with the law which, m this state, allows him a sufficient number of deputies to prevent trou ble. The answer did not satisfy Gov ernor Dunne and lie reprieved Scott. The same routine has been gone through five times. Now Scott in sists ho will never hang. Governor Dunne insists he never will commute Scott's sentence to life, as the crime was "too revolting to be expiated by anything but death." Governor Dunne is especially nnwiKuinan.. w v-j..-.-. mmioKment and mitfht see Scott still iio a.hfn his term expires next March. One Word, One Cent, One Time.
