tPPKCIAI. TrlXGItAM TO THK DISPATCH.l
Hakkiscdbo, March 18. One of the
most interestinp: cases before the Board of
Pardons to-day was that of the two Nicely
brothers, of Somerset county, under sentence
of death for the murder of Herman Urn
berger, who was shot down in cold blood in
his house in February of last year, ami
robbed of 518.000. The prisoners were rep
resented b- General S. A H. Croffroth and
"William H. Koontz.of Somerset, and Lyman
D. Gilbert, of this city, while the com
monwealth's interests were guarded by John
Cessna and F. J. Kooser, of Somerset
Counsel lor the applicants for executive
clemency tiled a large number of letters and
petitions asking for either the pardon of the
murderers or the commutation of their
death penalty to imprisonment for life.
They claimed that they were after evidence
which, it they had time and power to se
cure, would enable them to contradict essen
tial testimony given by Commonwealth
witnesses and they, therefore, asked for a
continuance of the case and a modification
of one of the rules of the board so as to allow
the taking of depositions outside Somerset
county.
TTKSATISFACTOKT EVIDENCE.
Mr. Gilbert considered the papers and
letters submitted to tee board so unsatis
lactory in the absence of the evidence de
sired.'that, under similar circumstances, if
the case were on trial he would be obliged
to withdraw from it. The counsel for the
prisoners stated that the testimony of three
persons whnte depositions they wanted
would bear on the case directly, and that of
60 others wouiil back up "William H. Shal
lis, who had made an important statement
in the interest of the Nicely brothers, but
whose teputation had been assailed by a
number of people who had known him sev
eral years before the trial.
Secretary Stone thought it was but justice
to give the commonwealth's counsel the
names of the witnesses whose depositions
were desired. After some parleying the
names were announced, and the character ot
their statements was loreshadowed. Con
cerning one of them, who is alleged to have
remarked that the officer who arrested the
murderers told him that he had manufac
tured some of the evidencewhich resulted
in the conviction of the Nicely brothers.
Mr. Koo'-er intimated that there was an ani
i mus in this statement, inasmuch as the offi
! cer had one time arrested the man for horse
stealing.
' John Cessna, after hearing what was in
tended to be proved, said the Commonwealth
considered the proposed testimony as wnolly
immaterial, as it would not alter the status
" the case.
A LITTLE MOKE TIME.
The board, in viev ot the fact that two
lives were at stake, agreed to give the coun
sel lor the prisoners until the next meeting
of the board to procure their new testimony.
Among the letter: submitted was one from
J. W. Beck, one of the jurors who con
victed the murderers to General Koontz, to
whom he wrote tha there was much in the
case with which he was not satisfied, and
the verdict had given him much uneasiness
ot mind. It was not his fault that it was
rendered. lie was sick and had been hurt,
and was the only man on the jury who had
held out for a different verdict.
The evidence, in his opinion, was not suf
ficient to justify conviction, and had he not
been overpowered and sick he would have
remained firm nntil the time of the writing
of bis letter, which concluded as follows:
"Will you lavor me by going to the Nicelys
and telling them that I do not want them to
have any hard feeling toward mc that I
tried to do my dutv and could not. Now,
Mr. Koontz. let me know what they say. I
can see those men''! faces before me every
night, and I do not like that."
In a letter addressed to the board he says
there was great excitement at the time of
the trial, and the peonle were much preju
diced against the prisoners. "When ihe
commonwealth had completed its testimony
one of the jurors remarked that he had
heard enough aud did not care about hear
ing any lies on the part of the defendants.
JCET KOOM SECBETS.
"When the jury retired five of the jurors
were for acquittal," said Mr. Beck. "I
held out against the solicitation, threats and
abuse of some ot the jurors, one of whom
pulled me off the bench on which I was
resting two or three times, and swore that I
was as bad as the murderers for not agree
ing with them." One of the tipstaves, in
charge of the jury, he satf, told him there
was no reason lor his holding out that an
act had been passed that made a verdict of
11 of the jurors binding
Another letter in the interest of the mur
derers (dated Chicago) claims that the
Nicely boys are innocent of the murder of
Herman tlmberger, and that the guilty
men, of whom there were five, were running
at large. One of them (evidently meaning
himself) would never be caught He closed
his communication, which was signed "F.
R. S.," by stating that he would not say
any more, as further remarks might put his
neck in danger
Petitions were also presented signed by
people of Somerset and Westmoreland coun
ties asking for the extension of executive
elemenev to the prisoners because of the ex
istence of doubts as to their guilt, and be
cause they were convicted when a bitter feel
ing had been aroused on account of atro
cious crimes having been committed in Som
erset county by persons from adjoining coun
ties, and when the excitement was at fever
heat over the great disaster at Johnstown.
The father and mother of the murderers were
present during the progress of the discus
sion resulting from the application of the
counsel lor a continuance of the case, and
evinced much interest in the proceedings.
THE JUDGE FOE HIM.
The case of Charles Carter was represented
by P. A. Shoemaker, who presented a letter
irom Judge Johnston, who tried the case,
asking for the commutation of the death
penalty to imprisonment for life. Carter,
who is colored, killed a negro at Johns
town on account of a white woman of
whom both were enamored. John Fenlon,
who assisted in the prosecution, opposed
executive clemency because the murder was
"cool, cold and deliberate, and Carter was
a bad man." Chal Dick, who also repre
sented the Commonwealth, was of the
opinion that commutation should be granted,
and spoke of the low character of the wit
nesses who testified against the prisoner.
Carter' execution is fixed for the 9th of
April.
Application was made for the commuta
tion of the death penalty of John W. Rudy,
of Lancaster, whose execution is fixed for
the 9th of April next The prisoner was
convicted of the murder of his father, by
whose corpse he was found after the latter's
death. It was claimed that no evidence was
produced at the trial that justified a verdict
of murder in the first degree. There was no
motive for the crime, and the son had always
shown great affection for his father. Nine
of the jurors asked for the favorable consid
eration of the application.
Colonel Frank Eshelman, who opened the
case, said there was a demand in Lancaster
that some one should be banged, and Rudy
was selected as the victim. F. K. Martin
supplemented this statement by the remark
that 20 murderers had been committed in
Lancaster county in 20 years and no one
had been executed.
AIT ACCOMMODATING INDIVIDUAL.
Ex-Senator J. W. Lee and William Mc
Clelland made pleaa in favor of the pardon
of Charles Laribee, of Venango county, who
accommodated a colored friend by shooting
him in 1S74. The board was informed that
Laribee, who is chief baker in the Western
Penitentiary, had stated a few days ago
that he had killed Lew Williams in a
drunken freak nficr Williams had asked
him to shoot him. Captain McClelland
showed that Laribee was a model man, and
that during the suffering in Johnstown the
Western Penitentiary had contributed 58,
200 loaves of bread to relieve the distressed.
All this was bated under the supervision
of Laribee. Dr. Rankin promised to back
the prisoner in a new process for making
YP-iKtifliR wfri nnrdnned. Ex-Senator Lee
i ssid that while the prisoner was very ig
norant when he did the shooting no iiuu ..
veloped into a remarkable man. If released
he would be a benefit to the community in
stead of a detriment
D. W. Moore aud John M. Eourk, re
presented John Shrod, of Allegheny, con
icted of larcenv; and the former also spoke
to the application of Frank Hunter, of
Forest county, convicted of malpractice.
The board held a secret session to-night,
but took no action in any of the ca3es.
The Smith murder case was not heard
owing to the forced departure oi Secretary
Stone to New York. D. W. Moore was
present to argue the case, but a full board is
required to hear capital cases. Secretary
Stone will return to-morrow morning when
the argument will proceed.
TLEA FOE THE FARMERS.

IPrECIAL TKLIOnAM TO TUB OISPATCn.l
Harbisbukg, Pa., March 18. The dis
cussion of the single tax question by two
representatives of the United Labor League
consumed a large portion of the time ot the
State Bevenue Commission this afternoon,
and compelled an evening session to enable
all parties desiring to give their views on
taxation to be heard. The Grangers were
represented by Victor E. Piollet, Worthy
Master Bhone, B. H. Thomas and State
Lecturer Brown, all of whom made earnest
pleas for the equalization of taxation.
Pioliet, who was the principal talker,
described in glowing colors the outrages to
which the farmers were subjected in taxes
discriminating against them and favoring
corporations. The farming classes were, he
said, on the verge of ruin, and something
would have to be done to lessen their tax
burdens to save them from disaster. The
country's perpetuity was threatened, as well
as that of the farmer's interests, by the
decay in agriculture. The preparation of a
bill was suggested before the next election
to remedy the drawbacks to the farmer's
prosperity. The tillers of the soil would
make thtir power felt at the election in No
vember. They would no longer be fooled.
He then repeated the oft-told tale
that real estate paid $32,000,000 of
the 541,000,000 which was yearly paid in
taxes. The farmers had to pay a large bulk
of tne taxes, while their best paying prop
erty was only realizing to its owners a profit
2 and 3 mills. He wanted the mortgages
of the farmers relieved of taxation and de
manded the imposition of a tax on railroad
and other corporations sufficient in extent
to maintain the schools, public charities
and pay the judicial, legislative aud execu
tive expenses of the State. Then the cor
porations would about be paying their share
of the taxes. He could not see why manu
facturing corporations should be exempted
from taxation, and Auditor General Mc
Camant remarked that that provision of the
revenue law was unconstitutional.
Colonel Piollet promised to test the con
stitutionality of the provision indicated if
the Auditor General would back him, to
which sentiment the latter responded that
he was ready to stand by his declaration.
D. M. Anderson, of the United Labor
League, addressed the commission at length
on the propriety of framing an act recog
nizing the single tax theory.
