0 APPEAL FOK MEB0L0.
Tim. lias h.ipu.J for laking the Case
I p to the Supreme t'oort.
Between Murderer Crexeiisu Mcrulo
and the gallows the only possible In
tervention is an appeal to the bourU
of pardons; for the time has passed In
which the case could be carried to
the Supreme court in capital cases
nothing toward that end done by At
torney John T. Martin, who represented
the prisoner at the trial.
An appeal from any court below to
the Supreme tc-ourt in capital cases
must be made within twenty days after
eentence of death has been pronounced
by the trial judge. Mcrolo wus sen
tenced on Jan. 21 lust and the twenty
days In which an appeal might be taken
expired yesterdav.
If a case Is not appealed within the
time prescribed, the only way in which
It can be brought then before the Su
preme court Is with the written con
sent of the chief justice of the tribunal.
It is not possible that a suspension of
the rules will be secured lu the inter
est of Merolo.
Attorney Martin's Position.
Attorney Martin In an Interview with
a Tribune reporter explained his ponl
tion in the matter. He said that all his
efforts In the prisoner's behalf have
not yielded him a single cent; on the
contrary he has expended a large sum
out of his own pocket to carry on the
case as he did.
Merolo's earnest wish was to have
Mr. Martin us his counsel, and upon
the solemn and straightforward state
ment confided by the prisoner that he
Is not the man. Mr. Martin took the
case and had every hope of securing;
an acquittal. He still thinks that the
evidence was not of sulliclent Weight
to convince twelve men beyond a rea
sonable doubt that the prisoner is the
right one.
When the verdict was rendered Mr.
Martin went to work again to get -a
reversal of judgment and a new trial.
This failed and the next step was to
go before the Supreme court. In the
meanwhile the prisoner informed Mr.
Murtln that he- has two relatives in
New York who would help him finan
cially. A letter was sent to them and
they replied with the request that they
be furnished with Information as to
what wns to be done. ..i
Wrote to tho Prisoner's I rlends.
This convinced Mr. Martin that the
prisoner hud friends and he wrote In
sufficient time to let them know that
It was necessary to forward assistance
to carry the case to the Supreme court,
and to do It within a certain time.
They did not respond, and Mr. Martin
does not see how he can be expected to
go any further and spend his own
money when the man's own friends re
fuse to act. ,
Sheriff demons has not yet received
official notice of the date set by the
governor for Merolo's execution.
BALL PARKVILL BE NAMED.
Plans for Improving Grandstand Sub
milted by Architect llolden. '
Plans for the proposed new grand
stand, bleachers, entrances and other
Improvements t the Base Hall park
have been submitted by Architect Hoi
den to the ofllcers of the Scranton as
sociation. They are the same as have
already been outlined In The Tribune,
but have not been llnully adopted, us
much will depend upon the term f
the lease signed with the Delaware,
Lncku wanna and Western company. A
short term lease, however, will not af
fect the appearance or the comfort of
the proposed seating accommodations,
the only point undecided being the
permanency and substantiublllty of the
structures. ' ...
It may be taken for granted that
whatever Is done will be for the prollt
or the patrons of the park as well uh
for the owners, us the latter believe
that 'the success of their enterprise Kill
depend on the way they please patrons
and the kind of base ball that the play
ers present. u the lirst point there
does not seem to be any doubt, and a
to ithe latter It may be inferred that
the men ulready signed will be made
to do the best they are capable of do
ing, and If that is not good enough the
erring ones will be set aside.
Thn mile tliurn In Mamieer McDer-
mott's side just now is the ubsence of
a lirst basetnun, but he does not de
spair of securing the right man before)
i the practice season opens. Steps have
been tuken -to investigate ine nuimj
of two lirst basemen who last year
gained a splendid local reputation In
tleorgla. ne of ithem may be given a
trial, but in the event of disappoint
ment In that direction Manager Mc
iJertnott has another line out, und the
line may not come in empty. t
Mr. Simpson has one idea which bin
partners will adopt at an early day. ami
thut is to give the park a name. V hat
the name will be hus not been decided
upon, but It will be something, nnd thut
Is better than the nondescript appera
tlon of "the base bull park." which has
been in use so muny years and means
ittle ..r nothing. "Athletic park' I
the title thut will Probably be adopted.

CITIZENS OF SCRANTON
Show Their Faith in Munyon's
Remedies by Purchasing m
5,371) Bottles
OF HIS CURE IS SEVEN DAYS
Unparalleled in the History or
Medicine.
There are not words enough in the
Knglish vocabulary by which you could
so thoroughly express the conlldence of
the public in Munyon's new method of
treating disease as the above true rec
ord of sales during the past eleven days.
Seven days ago he gave away 10,000
bottles of his remedies, absolutely free,
and since thut time has sold 5.37!) vials.
Had not eight-tenths of the people pur
chasing received benefits from the
same, the sale would have decreased so
rapidly that by this time the cures
could not be found In atiT reputnble
drug store, and this system of treating
diseases have been declared a failure.
WhaV'a different state of things exist
today. There Is not a pharmacist in
the city that does not carry a line of
Munyon's remedies. The sale Is in
creasing every day, as your druggist
will tell you. Why? Because Mun
yon's remedies cure disease. The pub
lic see It, hear it and know it. If you
yet continue to take these nauseating
doses of poisonous drugs, and pay 'the
physicians for no relief, in the fuce of
such facts as these, you deserve to suf
fer for your stubbornness, and he
laughed at by your healthy neighbor,
who has been cured by these harmless
little pellets, for 25 cents.
RHKUMATISM CUKE.
' Munyon's Rheumatism Cure Is guar
anteed to cure rheumatism In any purt
of the body; Acute or muscular rheu
matism can be cured In fr-m one to live
duys. It seedily cures shooiln? pains,
sciatica, lumbago and all rhetimutlc
pains In the bnck, hips and loins. It
seldom falls to give relief after cine or
two doses, and almost lnvarlubly euros
before one bottle has been used. Price
25c.
STOMACH AND DYSPEPSIA CURE.
Munyon's Stomach and tDyspvpsia
Cure cures all forms of Indigestion and
stomach trouble, such as rising of food.
distress after eating, shortness of
breuth, and all affections of the heart
caused by Indigestion, wind on the
