BAXTER'S SIDE0F THE CASE District Attorney fCanlalna Details of Hla f'onaeetlna with Prost ration of iMmd Fencers. District Attorney Baxter today declared himself further on the Bartlclt Richards case a follows: "I notice a press dispatch from Washing ton In this morning's Uee headed '8nre Over Richaids Ca-e.' In said Item appears ' the following statement:. 'According to an Item In the New York Sun, District At torney Baxter some time ago advised the Department of Justice to nolle prosequi the case against Richards, but tha reply was a rebuke from the attorney general.' This statement is absolutely false, I never at any time recommended or advised a nolle prosequi to be entered In tha Bart lett Richards case, nor even suggested same to the attorney general, nor have I ever received from the attorney general a rebuke as to said matter. "As to the further Item as follows: 'Sub sequently the district attorney proponed a compromise with the law breakers, but he was Instructed to go ahead and prosecute the case vigorously.' As to this I will say that counsel for Richards and Comstock made a proposition to at once remove all of their fences, provided after such re moval the indictments against them be dismissed. I refused to entertain this prop osition and referred the matter to the attorney general for action, stating that I saw no objection to auch course. He declined the proposition and did Instruct a vigorous prosecution. "As to the statement in said article, 'Now the department officers understand that the district attorney himself repre .en(e(j to ,1)e Ju(lfre tnu, th(,re wa no ev(. donce of bad fUn amJ ,, u wu. r.prVentat1on ,, Ju(1k Mung(.r ,.,., ,,,, j, . v.aiw inn. uririlllUIHO WVI U WJLI1UUI moral turpitude' as to this I wish to state that I made no such representation to the court, and the court did not act In passing sentence upon any representation whatever made by me.
