GOVERNOR IS POWERLESS 1 'lull Law, riaces Pardoning Tower With Board, Which Already Has Acted Unfavorably Kxecu rutlon Is Expected. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. IS. The American Federation of Labor today adopted unanimously a resolution ask ing clemency and a new trial for Joseph Hfllstrom, member of the In duatrial Workers of the World, who has been sentenced to be shot at Salt Lake City Friday. The resolution de clares that the feeling against Hills trom. as a labor agitator, militated against him at his trial. SALT LAKE CITY. Nov. 16. The Governor of Utah has no authority to stay proceedings In the case of Joseph Hlllstrom or to give him a new trial, as urged by the resolution of the American Federation of Labor in con vention at San Francisco. The constitution of the state places the pardoning power with the State Board of Pardons. The Governor may grant a respite. In his discretion, until tho next session of the Board of Par dons, but for no longer period. Gov ernor Spry exercised this prerogative in the case of Hlllstrom at the request of President Wilson September 30. The respite was terminated by unanimous vote of the board October 16, no new facts having been presented, and Hills trom was later resentenced to be ex ecuted next Friday. Neither the Governor nor the Board of Pardons has authority to order a new trial. That power is vested in the Supreme Court of the state, which has reviewed Hillstrom's case and found no errors sufficient to justify a new trial. Hillstrom is in his normal condition at the State Prison and a death watch has net yet been placed over him. It is believed here that the execution will take place Friday, as the case has been considered pnd acted on by all local authorities, and it is not believed President Wilson will intervene again.
