NO REASON TO INTERFERE
(Received 22nd April, 2.30 p.m.)
LONDON, 21st April. The Home Secretary (Sir W. Joyu-son-Hicks) has written to Thome's solicitor stating that, before he announced his refusal of a reprieve, he personally read a full transcript of the whole proceedings in every Court. To-day, in his anxiety that nothing that could be said on the prisoner's behalf should not be given due weight, he had conferred with the Chief Justice on the whole case. He regretted that, after examacj°n m every view P°>'nt, he could nnd no reason to advise interference with the sentence.
