in.si liuey wouid have shot Soguro.
This is the has** of tin* appeal lor
ecuuvc clemency the Butte atioi i! >.-*
wile make* at Washington.
The Crime
ylaillo Soguio Killed .1. K. ('‘(Irorg*' )
uiiev ai r ial two years ago. Scguro
had furnished wood for u>. j ‘s
dredging company; the company was
in bankruptcy proceedings and its af
fairs were being settled by the* court,
and Scguro could not get his momy
and could not understand wny. not be
ing familiar with courts and th *ir
rules and delays. He threatened I'.j ■>
and notified Riley that he would come
alter him, hut Riley was so full
animal courage that he had not toe
power to be afraid of anything, and
was therefore foolhardy. Scgu o
came to Riley in the boiler liou
where Riley was working and they
were alone. To Seguro \s demand 1m
money Riley made a shoit answer re
turned his hack upon Seguro and
started about his work, whereupon Se
guro shot him in the back, kiM’ng
him. Riley did not live long enough
to know what had happened to him.
(This is the prosecution’s story, al
though Riley was shot in the si le.i
Leroy To/.ier procured a stay of ex
ecution while he carried the case to a
higher court. The higher court af
firmed the decision of Judge BunneM.
and as Seguro is out of funds and
Tozier otherwise occupied, the case
has not been further api»ealcd.
