47-tf WILL BE HANGED AT O'CLOCK IX PRISON COURT YARD, NO REPRIEVE IS EXPECTED Mrtlm hf Kln MrW ion Great Surprise an Cabinet Fav ors Letting Law Tale lis Course-American Chil War Cited. (International News Service.) LONDON, August 2. Unless in tho early morning hours the unexepctetl happens and King George grants a reprieve. Sir Roger Casement will be banged at th. court yard of Pentonville prison.

Such action by the king would come in the face of official utterances madQ today to the effect that the government can seo no reason justifying a reprieve in face of the cabinet's unalterable determination to let the law take its course and It would come as a surprise even to Casement's relatives, who have given up all hopes of the prisoner escaping the payment of the death penalty for high treason. Casement himself made no statement today and let it be known he will make none. In the death cell of Pentonville prison he betrays no emotion and evidently enjoyed his fruit and Iced drinks today, which he took In quest of relief from tho heat. Premier Asquith late tonight for mally acknowledged the receipt of an extensively signed Irish petition In Casement's behalf. The petition wa3 signed by many famous authors.

It admits the prisoner's guilt but urgca his mental responsibility. His cxecu- tlon, the document urges, would be helpful to the German policy. The petlon cites the American Civil war, when leaders of the South were not executed and the breach healed. The foreign office says tonight that no communication had been received from the United States state depart ment requesting a reprieve for Casement. It was further stated that tho whole question had been carefully considered by the caVnet and the determination to let tic law take its course wa3 Bad Water Kills Hordes.
