FUEL EN III CELLS Western Company Officials Are Sent to Penitentiary. STAY OF 30 DAYS DENIED Federal Judge Tells Trio Convicted of Defrauding Government They Can Ask Executive Clemency After Reaching Prison. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 8 The doors of the State Penitentiary at San Quen tin closed today on James B. Smith, vice-president and general manager of the Western Fuel Company, and on Frederick C. Mills, superintendent of the same concern, who were convicted In 1913 of defrauding the Government by the false weighing of imported coal and whose final appeal for a stay of execution was denied today by Judge M. T. Dooling in the United States "ismci uouru -Edward H. Mayer, a weigher em ployed by the Western Fuel Company, who was sentenced to a year's term in the Alameda County Jail on the same charge, also went to jail. Smith and Mills were each sentenced to 18 months' Imprisonment. Judge Dooling ordered the defend ants to their respective places of pun ishment after-he had denied a stay of 30 days, which was asked to permit an appeal for Executive clemency. Judarment Three Year Old. In refusing- further delay he said: "The judgment in this case is now nearly three years old. Since it was entered many persons have been con victed in this court and have served the sentences imposed upon them. Many have applied for Executive clem ency, but such applications have been filed from the prisons in which they were confined. It is true these have been persons of no influence. "The defendants in this case are men of great influence, but whatever ef fect such influence may have on the Executive, it does not seem to me that It should be available to a litigant In this court. Iroiose4 Bartering; -Cited. "Moreover, the defendants are re ported to have declared that with their application for pardon they are en deavoring to make a bargain with the Department of Justice, by which, in consideration of the payment by the A estern Fuel Company of certain sums claimed to be due the Government and now subject of litigation In the second division of this court, the Department would barter away the penal Judgment of this court. "That the Department under any cir cumstances would contemplate such n. trade I do not believe, but I cannot so far give countenance to this report as even seemingly to allow time for the consumption of the proposed bar gain. If the Western Fuel Company owes money to the Government the Government should collect it in the ordinary way without taking advan tage of the plight of the defendats to practice a species of blackmail. If the defendants had good ground for the nullification of the penal Judgment they should not be required to pur chase it; if they have not. they should not be permitted to do so."
