Patrick's Execution Would Be Ju-
dicial Lynching, Says Counsel.
CONFIDENCE OF HIS WIFE
Cheers Dr. James Waddell Simp-
son, Whom Police Are Try-
ing to Make Case Against.
ton, N. V.
(Houston Post Special.)
NEW YORK, January G.—"It will be a
judicial lynching," saiJ Sidney Bell
Thomas, one of the lawyers associated
with former United States Senator David
B. Hill in the effort to save Albert T. Pat-
rick from the electric chair. "And I am
not prepared to believe that he will be
executed in opposition to the public sen-
timent and the moral sentiment of this
community."
air. Thomas, who Is a former Texas
man himself, has been doing the more
active work in connection with this case,
going to the different cities, collecting a
vast denl of evidence and stirring those
who can appreciate the gravity of the
situation from the legal and medical
point of view to repeated action. And if
Albert T. Patrick ultimately escapcs from
the chair he will perhaps owe it as much
to Mr. Thomas/as any other man in the
world. Mr. Thomas says that he Is fight-
ing the case, not so much on account of
Patrick's account, though he is of course
tremendously Interested in his client, but
because some of the decisions made by
the court of appeals ln connection whh
tills case estabuah precedents, wnich, it
carried out to logical conclusions, would
render it so that no man's life ana liberty
are sate.
Mr. Thomas has Just received a letter
from Mr. Patrick himself, which snow.^
that the wonderful brain of the man win
has been convicted of the murder of Will-
lam Marsh Rice Is tireless. In this letter
Patrick argues with all of the skill of a
trained lawyer as to whether the pr>feed-
ings ln the Federal courts should be by
writ of error or by writ of habeas corpus
Patrick appears to favor writ of error,
though he expresses himself as willing to
leave this to the Judgment of his attor-
neys.
NEW YORK COURTS COMPARED
WITH TEXAS TRIBUNALS.
In speaking of the manner in which the
conviction of Albert T. Pntrick has been
obtained, Mr. Thomas said to The Post
correspondent:
"Naturally, I do not care to be put in
the position of finding fault with the de-
cisions of the court, and I am willing to
avoid even the appearance of evil at this
time. But without criticising the methods
of the courts of the State of New York,
I think it only fair to say that iu a fair
legal contest a man has a far better
chance for his life or his liberty in the
South and the West, where the judges are
not so completely bound up ln the meshes
of red tape and precedents. I do not be-
lieve tjiat the court of last resort in the
State 6f Texas would ever have reached
tlie conclusions In this case reached by
the coirt of appeals of the State of New
York. They may be greater sticklers for
fine points of law here in the East, but
there Is less of legal common sense. I
should like nothing better than to argue
this case before the highest court in the
State of Texas—a court which ln intellect
and In legal ability is the peer of any
other court in the world."
While the lawyers are preparing for a
lively week in the United States courts.
Dr. Allan Mcl^aue Hamilton, the alienist,
has been moving heaven and earth ih the
medical world. He has Induced ex-Ppesi-
dent a rover Cleveland and Rev. Dr.
Charles II. Parkhurst to support the peti-
tion which he has prepared asking that
Albert T. Patrick be reprieved. While
Mr. Cleveland merely signed the printed
slip forwarded him by Dr. Hamilton, Dr.
Parkhurst wrote a letter to accompany
the slip to the governor. The letter reads:
"A man ought not to suffer death at the
hanjls of the State when there is a rea-
sonable doubt of hi* guilt. I submit to
your honor the question whether we must
not believe that there is reasonable doubt
of guilty when, as in the case of Albert T.
, . u ' c°urt of appeals denies re-
trial by a voice of four to three Judges,
and the change of one-half a man would
have created a tie."
EFFORTS MADE TO INTEREST I'ROM-
Dr. Hamilton has not been seeking the
signatures of the rank and file. Here in
New York, as is well known, this would
be measured simply by the amount of
money expended In circulating the peti-
tion. Given money enough to circulate
the petitions. It would probably be possible
to get a million signatures to a petition
not to electrocute Patrick or a million sig-
r.atures to a petition to hang him, for that
matter. The average New Yorker is pro-
verbially free and easy in a matter of
this kind. But in this case Dr. Hamilton
has confined himself to securing the opin-
ions of people whose opinions are of con-
siderable weight. Among the signers may
be mentioned ex-Judge W. D. Hatch a
law partner of Juctee Alton B. Parker;
Delos McCurdy, J. K. Isoley, a law part-
ner of Senator Piatt; Dr. J. M. Van Cott,
Professor E. H. Bartley, Prof. Charles
Jewett and Dr. W. M. Beecher of Brook-
lyn.
In speaking of the matter Dr. Hamilton
said:
"Ultimately a gigantic conspiracy of Pat-
rick's enemies to put him out of the way
will bo unearthed. I thought when Pat-
rick was first brought to trial that the
evidence against him was so flimsy as to
be ridiculous, and my surprise was great
when 1 found that the courts actually
considered the evidence seriously. I have
been in a great many cases and have ex-
amined a great number of criminals and
never before was I so much impressed
w.'th t* man's innocence as I have been in
this case." The petition drawn by Dr.
Hamilton, the alienist, is practically as
follow*:
"The undersigned, believing that the
conviction of Albert 11 Patrick for murder
in the first degree is unwarranted by the
evidence presented at his trial respect-
fully ask you to exercise clemency, be-

litving in time that the mystery of the
case, like that of others, will be ex-
plained.
REASONS GIVEN~~TO SUSTAIN REA-
SONABLE DOUBT CLAIM.
"An inspection of the evidence given in
his trial convinces us that there is cer-
tainly reasonable doubt of his guilt,
chiefly for the following reasons:
"1. It was stated by the coroner who
trade the autopsy Immediately after
death that the deceased. Rice, died of
natural causes and old age, and subse-
quently, despite this assertion, which was
made in the presence of a number of peo-
ple, went upon the witness stand and de-
clared that said Rice had been killed by
chloroform.
"2. That the subsequent examination of
the body, which formed the basis of the
testimony adverse to Patricia was made
after the process of embalming, which
would effectually destroy all minute evi-
dences of death either l'rom natural causes
or chloroform.
"3. That it was claimed that a 'cone'
containing an amount of chloroform had
j been placed over the nose and mouth of
Rice, and there was a strong doubt even
if this was done that he was alive at the
time, and if he were alive and this 'cone'
was left, as was testified to by the con-
fessed murderer, Jones, it certainly would
have fallen from its position had the vic-
tim been alive.
"4. The self-confessed murderer, Jones,
who turned State's evidence, we believe
to have been irresponsible, and it appears
that he made at least four different con-
fessions of a contradictory nature regard-
ing his participation in the crime. Jt is
extremely doubtful if he was sane, and
we therefore think his statement un-
worthy of belief.
"For other reasons which clearly cast a
strong doubt upon the guilt of Albert T.
Patrick we respectfully refer you to the
dissenting opinion^ of Chief Justice Cul-»
len and Justice O'Brien of the court of
appeals, which are handed you with this
document." „
Another former resident of Texas is
tangled up in a murder case here in the
sub^ibs of New York. It is no less
a rr.an than Dr. James Weddell Simpson,
the Hfth avenue dentist, who is charged
with the premeditated murder of his
fatht.T-in-law, Bartley T. Horner, the
wealthy retired tobacco expert of North-
port, L. I. Though torn with conflicting
emotions of filial duty and love for her
husband, the wife of the accused dentist
declares that Dr. Simpson could not have
slain her father. The testimony of sev-.
eral persons tends to show that the shoot-
ing was not an accident, as is claimed by
Dr. Simpson and his friends. Mrs. Simp-
Bon shuts her eyes to all testimony
against her husband and remembers only
the day when a tidai wave swepi vj.iUes-
ton into the sea. On that day James
Weddell Simpson risked his life to save
her from the d?ath that came to thou-
sands less fortunate. With the flood fol-
lowing swiftly upon his footsteps Simp-
son rescued his wife out of the very jaws
of death and together they made their
way through a series of perils to safety.
"He was so brave." said Mrs. Simpson
in explanation of the position she has as-
sumed. "He risked 'lis life to save mine
when the tidal wave swept Galveston. It
can not be possible that he would have
deliberately killed my father. It must
have been a terrible mistake. I can not
believe otherwise. Father and he had
not been on the best of terms recently,
but their diffetences were not such that
there was -lead of violence. They have
no right to compel me to testify against
my husband. I am still his wife. I can
not and will not appear against him."
MRS. SIMPSON'S ATTITUDE CHEERS
ACCUSED MAN.
When Dr. Simpson was informed of his
wife's statement at the Riverhead jail
where he is Incarcerated he burst into
tears. It was the first time since the
shooting that he had broken down.
"Thank God." he said in a voice shak-
ing with emotion. "I have felt certain
from the oegiuning 'hat my dear wife
would never believe that I intentionallv
shot her father. My wife's faith will
buoy me up in the coming days and her
confidence Is not misplaced, for I am an
Innocent man, so help me God.'
The theory of the prosecution is that
Dr. Simpson was interested in getting his
father-in-law out jf the way, fearing that
the large estate would be left to outsiders
by a will which it was expected Horner
would draw disinheriting Dr. Simpson
and his wife. For tnese and other reasons
the police are seeking to drag not onljf
Simpson but his wife into the net which
they are weaving out of the testimony of
the members of the household and tho
neighbors regarding the shooting.

WAR ON CLANSMAN.
Discussion Arises Over Deporta-
tion Point in Play.
The war inaugurated by the negroes of
this city on "The Clansman," Rev. Thom-
as Dixon's play, which has been having as
strenuous a time of It here as elsewhere,
has brought to the front a very interest-
ing discussion. It is the point raised by
tho clerical author and playwright as to
deportation of the negro as the remedy
for tlie evils whicli he depicts. The con-
sensus of the opinions of leading South-
erners is to the effect that deportation is
out of the question, because it is imprac-
ticable.
"If Mr. Dixon's book succeeds ln hav-
ing the negro's social and political status
absolutely defined in this country, so that
he does not make himself obnoxious to the
whites, a great service will be done," sum
Hon. Robert E. Lee, a representative
Southerner now residing in this city.
"Deportation of the negro is impractica-
ble," he continued. "He is here to stay.
I do not view with alarm the possibUji.
of the negro amalgamating with the white
race. I think that the white race will al-
ways take good care that he does not, no
matter how dear that wish might be in
the negro's heart. 'The Clansman' is a
stirring book, and, historically, it is quite
true. Of course it is hard reading for the
negro."
Secretary Grattan Colvin of the South-
ern society said: "Thomas Dixon's decla-
ration in 'The Clansman' that the negro
must either be deported or killed—well,
it's a little wild. I do not regard the
'black peril' as one demanding such a ter-
rific measure as extermination, or such a
! rigorous treatment as deportation. I think
that the negro .race may safely remain in
this nation and that affairs will move se-
renely if only the politicians will become
statesmen long enough to realize that the
negro is as unfitted for political equality
with the whites as he is for social equal-
ity. He has never threatened to get a
foothold on a social equality with his
white neighbor. It is impossible that he
should do so. I think that the danger of
amalgamation of the races is too remote
to be a live matter for discussion."
OSBORNE'S VIEW~ON THE RACE IS-
SUE IN THE SOUTH.
Ex-Assistant District Attorney James
W. Osborne, a native of North Carolina, in
an interview, said:
"Thomas Dixon's book Is one of power.
It treats of a period of Southern history
that I was too young to know. But the
book's absorbing Interest caused me to
read it at one sitting. I can not, how-
ever. agree with Mr. Dixon's policy de-
manding the deportation of the negro.
The negro is peculiarly fitted for doing
the agricultural work In the South, and
it would be a calamity to the South were
he taken out of it. The fear that Air.
Dixon voices, that the negro will not be
content to remain a humble factor in the
life of this nation, and that he will seek
to amalgamate with the white race, is, I
think, also a look far ahead. In my read-
ing of history the amalgamation of the
race of the three kingdoms—England,
Scotland and Ireland—with the race of
another color has never taken place. It
has not ln Africa or India. It will not
here. Nevertheless. Mr. Dixon has writ-
ten a most Interesting story and play,
though the questions that he raised are
and must continue to be. I should say.
not practical, but purely academic."

The Call of the Future
(From the Atlanta Journal.)
One of the greatest railway men in the
world has predicted that within twenty
years the steam locomotive will be found
only in museums and that its place will
be supplied by the electric motor, pro-
pelling trains across the continent at the
rate of seventy-five miles an hour.
Such a possibility as this strikingly il-
lustrates the astonishingly rapid rate of
development in which the mechanical J
world is progressfng. The Nineteenth
century was the age of steam; the Twen-
tieth centuA' is to be emphatically the
age of electricity.
No one can safely predict the limits to
which electrical development will proceed,
but it is safe to say that at the end of
this century conditions of life upon this
globe will be wonderfully changed from
those which now exist, by reason of the
increased ability of man to control this
mysterious, but marvelous, force to his
advantage.
Some discontented ones will tell you,
young man, that the more labor-saving
devices human intelligence produces, .the
smaller are your chances of success. This
is the dismal plaint of short-sighted,
small-souled pessimism. Beware of it.
It was considered a labor-saving device
to build the steamship, but tije steamship
has brought the whole world into four
very close and compact corners. It was
considered a labor-saving device to build
the locomotive, but the locomotive takes
you to the open plains, the fertile valleys
and the gold-lined mountain sides, so you
can reach the harvest of the Almighty,
which, had you relied on your tired legs,
could never have gained.
In the near years to come New York
will be one in a mighty chain of great
cities. Fifty years ago San Francisco
was only a village of shacks. Thirty
year's ago the Omaha, the Kansas City,
the Seattle, the Los Angeles of today,
were only misty dreams of the few who
dared to look to the future with faith.
The boy of today has little to fear that
the field is becoming overcrowded in our
own country. It is just being opened. It
is for the young men who are just be-
ginning to think what a wonderful world
this is. to study well the achievements of
the past and to see in what manner they
are to be improved.
Never did the world call more loudly,
more insistently, for young men with
force, energy and purpose—young men
trained to do some one thing—than today.
And every year that cry grows louder,
more insistent.
But the times demand men of large,
liberal, energetic minds, and the man who
insists on doing business in the old-fash-
ioned, humdrum way is as1 much behind
the procession as is the man who insists
on traveling with an ox team instead of
by railway.
No opportunities today?
Young man. when a small-souled pessi-
mist hisses that at you, give him the
laugh, and dig in for your big share of
God's great goodness to this age of ours.
