C., nov. 2.�? up a convicted of bribery but vigorously asserting his innocence Albert b. Fall Secretary of the Interior in the Harding Cabinet today rested his Hope of vindicating upon an Appeal to higher courts. Beyond the supreme court of the District of Columbia in which he was found guilty of accepting a bribe of $100,000 from Edward l. Doheny in return for executing the famous lease on the Elk Hills naval Oil Reserve Lay but two tribunals the District of Columbia court of appeals and the supreme court of the United states. In spite of the fact that a retraction of his Appeal would bring about a suspension of the erne year jail sentence imposed upon him by Justice William Hitz together with a Fine of $100,000 the former Cabinet officer went purposefully Forward with his efforts to obtain an ultimate exoneration. Make statement for the first time since the Oil scandals came to the attention of the nation the former Secretary late yesterday issued a Public statement summing up his version of the naval Petroleum Reserve leases in this he said that his a borrowing of Money from Doheny May have been a unethical a that he committed an a unspeakable Blunder in writing to the Senate committee that he obtained the Money from e. B. Mclean and finally he entered a plea teat the american people not believe him a guilty of this Damnable crime of which he protested his innocence. The next step for the convicted former Cabinet officer was the Appeal to the court of appeals of the District of Columbia. Like All higher tribunals this court is empowered to review cases brought to it not Only upon questions of Law involved but also upon the merits of the evidence and to set aside jury verdicts if it sees fit. Flay Hultz the principal Contention of Falls attorneys is that Justice Hitz in instructing the jury went beyond his province in telling the panel that it should not be swayed by sym a they for the aged and ailing defendant should decide the Case upon the evidence before it and leave All questions of mercy to the court. Fall contends that this was tantamount to Tel Ihfe the jury to return a verdict of guilty with a recommendation for mercy As was done. The Appeal also takes exception to numerous other sections of Justice Hitzl charge. If the court of appeals acts adversely fall will carry the Case himself to the supreme court.
