 - WASHINGTON, May 23.-The supreme court has denied the application for . writ of error in the case of Kemmler, un-
 der sentence of death by electricity. !, The court held that the change ln the form of death is within the legitimate
 sphere of legislative power of state legis- ]. latures. The state Of New York deter
 mined that it did not infiict cruel or un- usual punishment, and it's courts have
 sustained that determination. This
 court cannot see that the prisoner has
 been deprived of the due process of law.
 In order to reverse judgment, this court
 should be compelled to rule that the
 court of appeals committed an error so
 gross as to deprive prisoners of their
 constitutional right. The court has no
 hesitation in declaring that it cannot do
 this.
