SING SING, July 8.—Four murderers were
electrocuted at the prison Tuesday morn-
ing in the following order: James J. Slo-
cum, at 4:43 o’clock; Harris A. Smiler, at
5:13% o’clock; Joseph Wood, at 5:38 o’clock;
Shibuya J ugiro, at 6:06 o’clock.
It is stated by a witness of the electrocu-
tions that in each case there was an appar-

case, and the current was turned on a sec
0nd time.
The electrodes were not applied to the
top of the men’s skulls and the base of
the spine as with Kemmler, but to the
SLOCUM.
foreheads and the calves of the legs. The
current 'was kept on at least twenty sec-
onds on the first application, with a power
of 1,500 to 1,600 volts.
In spite of the fact that the sponge were
kept wet, all the executed men were burned
by the current, especially about the legs.
The physicians all agree that death was
caused by the first contact, and that the
apparent revival was merely the reflex
muscular action. All the witnesses who
have spoken agree that death was in-
stantaneous and painless, and that elec-
trocution was proved to be a success.
The Witnesses Gather.
The witnesses invited to witness the
execution gathered in the prison parlor
shortly before the hour fixed for the first
electrocution to take place. The warden
led the way, and the witnesses went in no
particular order out of the door of the
warden’s house, through a short passage,
then with a turn to the right through the
door in the prison wall.
With another quick turn to the left they
skirted the wall to the condemned man’s
cell, turnedxto the right and entered the
little frame building in which the 8p
paratus of death had been placed. Oppo-
site the entrance of the chamber and fac-
ing it was the death chair.
The chair was surrounded _by rubber
mats to insulate it. Behind the chair,
built against a partition wall which di-
vided the building: into two apartments,
was a. closet opening at the top, about
seven feet high. In this closet was the
switchboard which was to be used in
turning the current into the condemned
men.
Before the entrance of the witnesses the
executioner had entered this closet from
the other room and sat waiting for the sig-
nal from the warden to turn the switch.
Who he was isvnot- known and'will not be
known authoritatively. It is generally
supposed that the executioner was a con-
vict from the prison, detailed for the duty.
On the right of the witnesses as they en-
tered was the massive iron door, which
.- closed the passage leading into the prison
for the condemned. It was almost as
massive and impenetrable as the brick
walls about it, and as impervious to sound.
Seated in their cells with only the walls
and the iron door between them and the
engine of death, the condemned men heard
nothing of the busy preparations going on
in the execution'chamber. They knew that
their last minutes were being measured off
though, for their spiritual advisers had
been with them‘ for some hours giving
them such consolation as they could.
The Apparatus Tested.
SING SING, N. Y., July 7.—The witnesses
distributed themselves about the chamber.
The electrician, E. J. Davis, was in charge
of the apparatus for measuring the cur-
rent, which was fastened to the side of the
Closet opposite the entrance to the Cell
room. It consisted of 3. volt meter, 8. re-
sistence coil and a row of twenty incandes-
Cent lamps each measuring 100 volts.
SMILEE. JUGIRO. I
A heavy switchboard formed the con-
nection between the- wires from the
dynamo room at the other end of the
prison grounds and? the wires in the execu-
tioner’ s closet adjoining. A push button
communicated with a signal bell in the
erintnesses had ranged them-
selves about the room, the electrician
touched this button once. The engineer
responded to the signal and started the
dynamos. ' They had been tested up to
3,000 volts during the morning. When the
-Q current had been turned on, the electri-
cian threw the switch which turned it into
the row of lamps above his head. They
burst into a glow of light that rivaled the
daylight shiningr through the canvas cover-
ing of the windows about the sides of the
improvised execution room.
The testing apparatus showed again a.
satisfactory strength of current. The
electrician advised the w .rrdcn of this
fact. The warden we r. t to the g1eat~ iron
door at which stomi or 1 o! The assistants
/
whdm he had appointed under warrant of
law, and it was opened to permit him to
pass through. He was gone only a couple
of minutes. In that time he had notified
Head Keeper Connaughton, who was in
the condemned cell room, that the chair
was ready for the first of the condemned
men.
The Executions.
The exit from the cell room Was made
as quietly as possible. The warden and
the head keeper walked ahead, then the
condemned man between e two priests,
Father Creeden and Father Lynch, then
the two guards. When the iron door had
been closed behind the party Slocum stood
silently and stolidly. He showed no depth ,_
of interest in the ceremony in which he
was to be a participant. The warden
didn’t ask the prisoner if he had anything
to say, and he did not volunteer anything.
The prisoner made no resistance, but
walked quietly to the chair and sat down.
Through all of these preliminaries the
witnesses stood at a respectful distance,
their eyes fixed on the prisoner. The
warden had clad him in a new suit of
cheap black diagonal cloth, trousers of a
dark pattern, a white shirt, 3. turndown
collar and a small black cravat.
As he se’ated himself and leaned back
the warden’s assistants stepped forward
and drew across his chest and under his
arms the heavy straps, which were secure-
ly fastened to the back of the chair. Then
about his wrists and over his arms they
drew other s‘traps, which they buckled
0105er so that no straining under the in-
fluence of the electric current could throw
the body into ugly contortions or move it
from the position in which the two elec-
trodes pressed against it and formed the
circuit through which the current from
the dynamos would be playing.
The Straps Adjusted.
His legs were quickly strapped to the
legs of the chair. In all of these prepara-
tions the witnesses showed a great interest.
Warden Durston particularly, as the first
who had superintended an electrocution,
watched every movement of the warden’s
assistants with interest. Dr. McDonald
superintended the adjustment of all the
straps. The last to be put in place were
the straps across the face. They Were
rather belts than straps. One was drawn
across the beard of the prisoner and partly
over his mouth, but not so so far as to pre-
vent speech. The other was fastened over
his eyes and pressed down on his nose.
When the straps were all in place the
“figure four” above his head was loosened
and brought down so that the electrode
fastened to the end of it at the base of a.
coil spring hung' In front of his forehead.
When the sponge in the electrode was ad-
justed the “figure four” was clamped In
place and the electrode was fastened in po-
sition by a strap passing about the head.
Then the second electrode was put in
place. It was very like the first—a convex
brass band with a sponge stitched to the
under side. The right leg of the prisoner’s
trousers had been slit up the side so that
the electrode could be bound to the calf of
the leg. It was fastened in place. The
wire representing the negative pole was
attached to it at the back by a. small
thumbscrew of brass. This wire ran
down through the floor and into the exe-
cutioner’ s closet, to the wall of which it
Was fastened.
The wire from the “figure 4” hung
from a Curved rod extending over the top
of the closet and hanging above thwris-
oner’ s head. The prisoner made no sound

during these preparations, but went
through them stolidly, giving the deputy
wardens such assistance as he could by
placing his arms and legs in the desired
positions as they were indicated. Dr. Mc-
Donald, who was in full charge of the
scientific features of the electrocution,
stood directly behind the chair as the
preparations were completed.
The Fatal Moment.
One _of the attendant doctors took a. can
of salt water in his hand. It was a long
necked can, with a handle at the side, such“.
as is used by engineers for oiling. With it
he wet the sponge at the two electrodes.
The preparations consumed only two or
three minutes. When everything was in
play Dr. Daniel and DI'. Southwick looked
over the straps. Warden Durston also
gave a glance at them.
As the doctors finished their quick in-
spection of the straps they nodded to Dr.
McDonald. It was he who, in concert
with Dr. Spitzka, had agreed upon the
time during which the current should pass
through Kemmler’s body. He stood just
behind the chair, a stop watch in one
hand, a white handkerchief in the other.
As the doctors nodded their approval the
handkerchief fell from his hand and flut-
tered to the ground. Three feet away from
him Electrician Davis stood with his hand
on the switch bar.
The falling of the handkerchief was the
signal for the shifting of the switch bar,
which threw the whole strength of the
electric current into the circuit passing
through the execution chamber. The
turning on of this current was the signal
for the unknown executioner within the
closet. He stood with his right hand on
Q the switch bar waiting for the signal.

the body' In the chair stiffened against the
straps perfectly rigid. Every musclewas
firm—set as though some awful eflfo'rt to
escape from the bonds that held it tight
made them like springs of tempered steel.

and chin, but the Skin exposed to view
turned a purple red as it started for-
Ward. The spectators drew about the
chair, standing: on the rubber mats for
safety, and the physicians compared notes
on the physical pheumucna presented.
Dr. McDonald fixed his eye on the stop
watch in his hand and watched it tick ofi
minute fractions of seconds. When it
marked twenty seconds he nodded ' to
Electrician Davis, who stood with his
hands still on the switch waiting for the
signal. It had been decided that to wait
for the executioner in the closet to respond
to a signal to stop would mean a' loss of
time which would make the duration of
the current uncertain and destroy some
of the scientific value of the experiment.
A Moment of Suspense. Q
So the electrical apparatus had been so
constructed that when the Current was
turned on the chair circuit it could be
thrown out of both the chair and the exe-
cutioner’s closet .by the operation of Elec-_
trician Davis’ lever. So when McDonald
nodded to the electrician; he threw the
switch bar across the board and the cur-
rent ceased to flow through the apparatus
of death. The effect on the body of Slo—
cum was almost instantaneous. From a
position of great muscular activity it and.
denly subsided in hollow ches'ted collapse.
Instead of straining against the straps it
hung in them limp and unsteady. A mo-
ment of uncertainty followed. Wouldthe
had done? Would his chest heave and his
lips give forth the sound of breathing?
The experts at Auburn had said that the
current turned on Kemmler was too weak
v—that it had- been turned off too soon.
Through this body a; steady current of
1,600 volts had been runningé—twiee the
strength of the average current that
passed through Kemmler’s body. It had
been on for twenty seconds, or five seconds
longer than the current in the Kemmler
case.
A Second Shock Given.
Would the man move or would he give
the sickening suggestions of returning
life that had horrified the spectators at
Auburn? The seconds passed slowly—
how many of them is not known, but in
less than a minute’s space there came be:
tween the lips of the pallid face hanging
in the death harness a. rush of air which
whistled through the half clinched teeth
and ended 1n ahalf sigh, half groan. Only
once did the lungs seem to contract.
Quickly as Dr. McDonald could raise his
hand to give the signal the electrician
threw the switch, the electric current
rushed through the death circuit, and the
body in the chair stiffened again against
the straps. The time of the contact was
not made public. Dr. McDonald has the
record of it. The stop watch did «not regu-
late the length of the contact this time.
The Flesh Burned.
The same unhappy event that brought
the Kemmler execution'to a close made a.
sudden end of Slocum’s experience in the
electric chair. The skin and flesh of the
leg and almost immediately afterward the
skin of the forehead began to smoke.
Dr. McDonald-again signaled the elec-
trician to turn the switch, the current
was withdrawn and instantly the body
collapsed again. This time there was no
response from the muscles. The figure
hung silent and motionless in the straps.
There was no doubt that Slocum was dead.
The electrician had signaled the engine
and the dynamo had stopped, and the
whirring Sound that had ,sounded so
clearly to the waiting ears of the watchers
without through the‘ silent morning air
had died away. The warden’s assistants
stepped forward and loosened the elec-
trodes.

Unlike those of Kemmler, Slocum’s re—

ment, where it was laid out on one of the
long tables placed there for the autopsy.
The Autopsy.
The autopsy was begun at about half
past ten o’clock and the first body operated
upon was that of Slocum. Dr. McDonald
was in charge of the autopsy and was as-
sisted by Dr. Ward, Dr. Townsend and Dr.
Southwick.
The law requires that each body shall be
autopsied and mpgrted upon. They will

Donald’s official statement may, not be

how the strong current had affected them.
The brain of Slocum was congested and at
every place where the contact was made
the tissues were burned and destroyed.
All Died Alike.
then went through the same course as Slo-
cum, and to relate the details of their
deaths in the chair would be to repeat
what has already been told in Slocum’s
case. The executions inIeach case were
almost identical.

examination was made the last of March,
