! Clemency Pleas Denied bv State Pardon Board J

Dr. Nelson B. Ross, Now Serving Life Term, Refused Parole. State clemency board yesterday denied petitions to Dr. Nelson B. Ross. 65, Muncie, and nineteen others, in hearings at the statehouse today. Two cases were commuted, one continued and two persons were paroled. Pleas by relatives and friends of Dr. Ross, serving a life sentence at the Indiana state prison for the murder of a motorman at Hartford City, Oct. 28, 1909. in a dispute over a 10-cent fare, failed to move the clemency board. Letters from the doctor’s friends that he be allowed "to die outside prison’’ were offset by an equal number of letters from friends of the murdered man stating that the "life term was justified," were revealed by the board in denying the plea for clemency.
