sooner / hang for il the better" Nearly
$500 in cash was found AT his room. The
coroner's jury pronounced Kemmler q
murderer. and Immediately after the in
quest he was taken from the iail to the
Police Court and arraigned on charge OF
murder in the first degree He pleaded
guilty, saying he had no use for lawyer.
Judge Childs sentenced him to die within
the week beginning June "a. 1889, by the
application Of electricity as provided by
the Code. at Auburn State prison. Coun-
sellor Hatch took exceptions 10 the SEN
ment was cruel and unusual and contrary
to the spirit of the Constitution. Kemm-
Ter reached Auburn Friday. May oath. at
midnight. A writ of hdbeds corpus was
served upon Warden Durston Just before
the fatal day arrived. and upon June 25th
an exhaustive argument was heard by
County-Judge Day.
THE LAW UPHELD.
The whole argument was as TO the con-
stitutionality of the law substituting cleo
tricity for the gibbet upon the ground OF
the former being cruel and unusual Judge
Day dismissed the writ. and the case was
taken to the general term of the Supreme
Court at Rochester, where the constitu-
tionality of the law was upheld. The last
resort was the Court of Appeals. and here,
too. the decision was adverse to kemmler's
counsel.
The criminal was resentenced TO die in
the week beginning April %, $780,. IL Is
likely Kemmler would have been electro
cuted on April 30th, but on the 29th
United States writ of hdbeds corpus was
served on the Warden and the case was
then carried to the United States Supreme
Court on the point of constitutionality OF
the law on the same grounds as urged in
the State courts. The New York courts
were upheld in the final appeal and
Kemmler was again sentenced to be killed
in the week beginning August 4th.

modern science OF carrying into erect the
sentence of death IN capital cases
Three men constituted this commission,
Eldridge T. Gerry, A. 2. Soutbwlck. and
Matthew Hale: the first lawyer, the Sc
cond physician, and the third lawyer:
The commission entered upon course Oh
painstaking research and investigation.
All facts bearing upon the subject with
which they were charged were carefully
studied. All criminal law from earliest
history to the present day was examined,
and the methods of Judicial killing from
the days OF the Mosaic law to the present
were examined in detail. Europe was
visited by one or more OF the commission
ers for study, and mt home patient and ex-
haustive experiments were made.
The commission concluded that the time
had come when radical change should be
effected. and the commission's research
narrowed its choice to four methods OF Ju-
dicial killing
J. Electricity.
2. Prussic acid or other poison.
3. The guillotine.
4. The garrote.
Upon these the commission invited ex-
preston OF opinion from Supreme Court
and county judges, district attorneys, ana
sheriffs throughout the State, the final re-
suit being these recommendations to the
Legislature
1. That the present method Of infiicting
the death penalty be abolished, and rs q
substitute that a current of electricity OF
sufficient intensity to destroy life instantly
be passed through the body of the convict.
2. That every such execution take place
in a State prison. TO be designated by the
court IN its judgment and death warrant,
and that the time Of the execution be not
fixed by the court. except by designating a
period within which it shall take place.
3. That after execution posi-moriem ex-
animation of the body be made. after
which dissection or burial without cere-
mony IN the prison graveyard. with suffi-
cient quIcklime to insure immediate con-
sumption of the remains.
The report Of the commission was sub
mitted to the Legislature III 1883 and
bill embodying the above recommended
tions was presented in the House, the
same to become operative January /, 1889.
II was passed in 1883.

Yates were with him. They read TO him
from the Bible. and he prayed with them:
He dressed himself without aid in suit OF

The Warden explained 10 kemmler that
he must have the top Of his head shaved.
The prisoner demurred. He had taken
great pains in dressing his hair, and be

not want TO be dishgured. He wanted
