eOVERNOR HUNTS
RETHtHE FOR
Governor Riggs yesterday
granted a reprieve to Maylo
Segura in response to a tele
gram received from John A.
Clark, attorney at Fairbanks
stating thkt a petition had
been sent to President Wil
son asking that Segura's
tence be commuted to life.
The petition has not yet haa
*ime to reach Washington,
and the reprieve was grant
ad until the president takes
iction on the petition.
Segura was convicted of
killing George Riley in Idita
rod in 1918. He was sentenc
ed to hang on January 15.
The case was appealed to
the circuit court and affirm
ed. He was resentenced and
a petition to have the senten
tence commuted to life was
to be forwarded to the pres
ident, but signatures to the
petition from residents in
Fairbanks could not be got
ten. The President - has al
ready granted several re
pneves, the last expiring on
January 15,1921. Two weeks
ago the president refused a
petition asking the sentence
be commuted to life. '
Within the past week the
thru the efforts of Fathei
Monroe, another similar pe
tition has been signed by
all the attorneys not holding
a federal office, the mayoi
representatives of all the
principal business houses,
the postmaster, all clergy
nen, Senator Collins, the et
tbr of the News-Miner and
a large number of citizens.
The president has been wir
ed to that effect. Governoi
Riggs was wired to grant:
reprieve long enough to givv
sufficient time for the peti
tion to reach Washington
and be considered.
Those particularly inter
ested in the Segura case sa>
that when the crime Wa
committed he was an ignor
ant foreigner and that dui
ing the time he has servpd ii
jau he has educated himsel
and is taking a correspond.
,ence course hi engineering
Many believe that the criftu
does not deserve the deatl
penalty. —tyews-Miner.
