My the Bare 'l'act That the Exeeuo
tlons Have Taken-grin“ Will Be
Announced. and the Jury Will
Be Sworn to Secrecy.
t
ALBANY, July. a—ef‘lt is just possible
that I may not execute anybody next
‘ week.” The speaker wa's'Warden Brown,
of Sing Sing prison, and - he was standing
in the ofllce of the superintendent of pris-
ons at the capitol. He had been asked
how the preparations for the execution
-..of.tbe.six murderers was going on, and he
was answering it. “You see,” he contin-'
ued, “it is more than pofsSible a stay may
be asked for and ”grantedto‘produce new
evidence. - Still, there may be" some sensi-
ble judges, who, after this delay, may not
' grant it, and in that case some of the con-
victed men will have to die.”
Mr. Brown talked as nonchalantly as if
he were going to be best man' at a wed-
ding instead of manager of a wholesale
, slaughter. In re-
sponse to further
queries he said
that everything
was in readiness
and he anticipated
no hitch. He ad-
,mitted that as it
was only the sec-
ond trial of elec-
trocution t h e r e
was still a little
\ novelty about it
, “ 5" and a break of
WALDEN BROWN. some kind might
be made, bins he said the greatest care
would be taken that all the apparatus
was in the best of working order. The
men are in the best« of condition, accord-
ing to the warden, and none of them have
broken down. " '
Not a Single Reporter to Be There.
Asked to give some information as to the
time of execution and the number to be
killed in one day, he said: ,
“I have no information to give. ' Ishall
carry out thelaw to its'last letter, and I
shall give no information to the press other
than that the execution took place at a
certain hou‘r.”_-. » ;- _‘ .
The cOrréSpondent interviewing the war-
den said: “\Ve11, you are going to have
newspaper men in at the execution?” ,
"Not one,” he replied calmly. “I shall
be personally acquainted with every wit—
ness, and I have already refused all press
associations and The World, The Times
and The Herald admittance. .The law
shall be implicitly obeyed, and no newSpa-
per reports shall come from the inside of
my prison walls. The information which
the law allows shall be given and that is
all.”
The electrical execution law to which
Mr. Brown refers prescribes that only the
bare‘fact of an execution shall be printed,
and to publish he details is a misde—'
meanor.
Warden Brown is evidently determined
in the matter, and says that he will even
swear his jury to secrecy. It is believed
that he is supported by higher state an-
thorities and the earnest request of El-
dridge T. Gerry, of New York.
HOW THE CONDEDINED TAKE IT.
Slocum Ready, Jugiro Dazed, Wood 13:01.?
‘ FINE SELECTED GOODS FOR SPRING
turn and Smiler Whining. .‘_.~
SING SING, N. Y., July 3.--The four mur-
derers, Smiler, Slocum, Wood (colored) and
J ugiro (Japanese), who, are under sentence
to die byjel’ecft’ric shock next week, and who.
have not, like their two fellow condemned;
McEl inc and Trezza, succeeded in ob-
taining further‘delay, are awaiting death
with apparent calmness.
Slocum, the wife murderer, says that
his lawyer hm only two days more in
which .tq‘ “get in his. work,” as he ex-
pracs it.,:.Slocu~m<adds: “I guei'li'it’s all
up this time, and I’m glad of it. I don’t
want any more fooling. I’d rather have it
over.” _,
Jugiro, who stabbed a fellow country-
man and sailor to death in New York, and
who is said by a New York newspaper to
have gone insane, is apparently merely
low spirited and dazed by the approach of
his‘terrible end. The prison officials say
that there is no ground for a deferment of
execution in - his case on account of his
1 condition. . , _
ood, who killed an Italian fellow la-
borer on theNfew York "aqueduct, is, as
usual, very quiet. He reads, smokes and
sits thinking, .but rarely says a word:
Smiler, the Salvation” Army officer who
killed one of his three wives because she
left him on account of ill treatment, talks
continually, protesting his innocence and
complaining in a whining way of his fate.
Warden Brown is consulti ' with state
officials at Albany ;-ab9!1§A‘._,. 118. When A -
he returns the machinery. will baitesth‘hy '

gered 31,000 that, Simms couldn’t walk:
without money from Galveston to Chi-
cago in sixty days. Simms accepted the
challenge, and he has just completed his
long tramp, finishing five hoursahead of

were crowded into his tramp that he will
write a book, and expects to make a for-
tune out of his thrilling story.

WASHINGTON, July 8.-—W. E. Sims, con-

laborers in Central and South America is
very wretched. The pay for labor is very
poor, and Americans, cannot live {on it.
He expresses the hope that the emigration
of laborers from the United States will be
stopped, as death alone awaits them there.

thing was found to be correct, to the
cent. The commissioners reappointed
Treasurer Quinta'rd for another year.
He has been county treasurer for a
number of years; in fact has grown old
in efficient service to Fairfield county.
Mr. Quintard gave bonds in the sum of
