SCRANTON, Pa. May 2.--Shortly after
IL O'Clock this morning one of the most
disastrous fires Of recent years in this city

against the straps. The time of the con-
tact Was not made public. DR.. Mcdonald
has the record of it. The stop
watch did not regulate the length
of the contact this time. The
same unhappy event that brought
the Kemmler execution to close made
a sudden end of Slocum's experience in
the death chair. The skin and flesh of
the leg and almost Immediately after
ward the skin of the forehead began to
smoke. DR.. Mcdonald again signaled
the electrician to turn the switch, the
current was withdrawn and instantly
the body collapsed again. This time
there was no response from the mus
cleS.
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
listening ears of the watchers without
through the silent morning air had died
away. The warden's assistants stepped
forward and loosened the electrodes.
One by one the straps which confined
the body to the chair were unbuckled.
Unlike those of Kemmler, SlOcum'S re-
mains were so limp that they would have
slipped from the chair as the last strap
was unfasted had not the attendants
held them in place. Kemmler's CHASTITY
remains sat upright in the chair when
the straps were removed and glared at
the wall of the execution chamber
while the witnesses of the electrocu-
ton went to breakfast. From the chair
Slocum's remains were carried to the
adjoining apartment, where they were
laid out on one of the long tables there
for the AUTOPSY.

sLOCUM BROUGHT OUT.
He Showed No Particular Interest
In the Affair.

SING SING, n. Y, July flames Nj.
Slocum, Harris A. Smiler, Joseph Wood
and Schihick JugirO were sent to their
doom at the prison here to-day, by
means of electricity. The approximate
time of the turning on of the current
in each case was: Slocum, 4:40; Smller,
$40: Wood, $50 1-2; Jugiro, 6:05. The
prisoners had received some intimation
before that the executions were to take
place this morning and they were pre-
pared. They went to the execution
chair bravely, and met their fates with
out a struggle. They offered no resist
ance, but rather assisted the keepers
when they were bound to the chair.
The testing apparatus showed salts
factory strength of current, and the
electrician advised the warden of this
fact. The warden went to one of the
great iron doors, at which stood one of
the assistants whom he had appointed
under warrant of law, and it was
opened to permit him to pass through.
He was gone only 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 condemned men. The
death warrant was not read to the men
III Il6 cell, dS was uOll6 III lu0 CdSo VI
Kemmler. The warden said he did not
know anything in the law compelling
hun to read the death warrant. As a
precautionary measure he would read
it. but not at the time of the execution
some time before if possible.
1t was his wish to prevent the other
men from knowing that the first man
had been taken from his cell if possi-
BILE, and so the exit from the cell room
was made as quietly as possible. The
warden and the head keeper walked
ahead; then the condemned man be-
tween the two priests, Father Creeden
and Father Lynch, and then the two
guards. When the iron door had been
closed behind the party Slocum stood
silent and stolid. He showed no depth
of interest in the ceremony in which he
was to be participant. The warden
did not ask the prisoner if he had any
thing to say, and he did not volunteer
anything. The prisoner walked quietly
to the chair and sat down. Through
all of these preliminaries the witnesses
stood at respectful distance. their
eyes fixed on the prisoner. The war
den had clad Slocum in a new suit of
cheap, black diagonal cloth, trousers OF
a dark pattern, white shirt, turn
down collar and black cravat.

sNIILER WAS COOL.
The Salvation Army Bigamist Did
Not Finch.

Not Finch.
SING SING, N. Y, July 7.-While
Slocum's body was being removed the
witnesses discussed earnestly the SINH
larity which this execution bore to the
Kemmler case-a similarity which
seemed torelieve the first electrOcution
of the odium of bungling failure from
which it had suffered in the minds Of
many since its details were published
to the world. Very little time
was spent in making preparations for
the next execution. The second of the
condemned men chosen was Smiler, the
Salvation Army bigamiSt. who muir
dered one of his wives. To summon
Smiler the warden had to pass the cell
of Wood, but in front of all the con-
demned mems cells iron screens had
been drawn so that none of them knew
before his time which of the others had
been summoned. The warden passed
around the screen which shut in Jugiro's
cell and summoned Smiler. He came
with calm step and cOurageouSly, sup
ported by Rev. Mr.. Edgerton on one
side and Rev. Mr.. Law on the other.
He betrayed no fear as he faced the
curious eyes of the witnesses in the eX-
ecution chamber, and looked for the
first time on the death chair. Like his
predecessor, Slocum, he stepped for
ward without summons, and seated
himself, placing his arms on the chair,
and waiting for the attendants to bind
him. He did not offer to make any
final speech. Unlike Kemmler, none OF
the four men made any remarks. The
attendants busted themselves with the
straps again. Smiler sat calmly looking
ahead until the bandage was drawn
across his eyes. Again the straps and
buckles were inspected, and again ap--
proved. Again the white handkerchief
fell, the electricion threw the switch,
and in a moment more the straps tight
ended under the straining of the taut
muscles as the electric current shot
through the body.
The contact in this case, as in the
others, with perhaps some almost inap-
preciable variation, was twenty seconds.
The current measured some 1,5OO volts.
At the eud of twenty seconds the cur
rent was turned off, but only for mln-
ute. The chest of the man in the chair
began to heave, and the current was
turned on once more, until, as in the
case of Slocum, it burned the flesh.
Thep it was shut off again, and after a
delay. which showed that there was no
chance of revival, the body was un-
strapped and taken from the chair to the
autOnSV room.

An Unknown Man Jumps From
the Wabasha Bridge Into the
River.
Shortly after 80 last evening des-
perate suicide jumped from the Waba-
sha street bridge to the river beneath
and was drowned. AT the hour named
one Of the stage hands of the
Metropolitan opera house was
proceeding with a friend across the
bridge to the West side. When about 4
quarter across they suddenly saw a
well-dressed man who was in front of
them climb over the parapet and jump
over. They ran up to where the man
had jumped, and, looking down, saw
him struggling in the water and
heard his cries for help. They at
once rushed to Bridge square
and notified Police Officer Lynch. The
officer, accompanied by a number of
men, including GLOBE reporter, pro-
ceeded to the railroad tracks and
searched the water with lanterns, but
no sign of the body could be seen. The
officer clambered round one of the stone
ledges of bridge pier, but could find
no trace of the man. The man
had evidently drowned during the few
IuInutOS winch SldpSSu 0l0 tlO pdlly
could reach the river embankment.
The officer disturbed party of wild
looking tramps who were sleeping in
bOX-car, and later went on a search for
them. The cars on the tracks and the
caves in the bluff were all explored, but
the fellows had got away. One man
was found sleeping in a box car, and
the searching party reached the top of
the bluff after an arduous climb up the
rocky bluff.
AS to who the suicide is, 1t is impos-
sible to say. Two men, one named
Lauer. and the other Lytin, were report
ed yesterday to the police as being miss

FERGUS FALLS, Mimi, July THE
fracas at Henning on the Fourth has
terminated in tragedy. Hans MOnsOn,
whom President Brandborg hit in the
head with club, died at o'clock this
afternoon, after lying insensible since
Monday morning. His physician says
his death was caused by conclusion of
the brain. The neighborhood is in an
uproar over the occurrence, and dire
threats are made against Brandborg,
who has many enemies among Henning
people. 1t is stoutIy claimed here that
Bramborg will promptly give him
self up to the officers and that
his plea of self-defense will be
recognized as valid. Brandborg
prominence in the Alliance, and the
semi-politlcal character of the quarrel
help to swell the excitement. Brand
borg is a Swede, while most of his as
sailants the night of the 4th were Nor
wegians, and this matter of nationality
adds to the strength of the feeling
against him at Henning, where large
proportion of the people are NOrwe-
gians. There are conflicting stories in
regard to the unfortunate affair. and the
whole truth may not yet have devel-
oped. 1t is claimed by many that Alliance
politics was mixed up in it on the score
that the crowd which followed Brand
borg were friends of H. E. Boen, regis
ter of deeds, elected on the Alliance
ticket. Brandborg, at late meeting of
the county Alliance, refused to serve as
president if Boen remained as secre-
tary. Mr.. Boen, however, expresses
deep regret at the occurrence. Brand
borg has gone to st. Paul to watch Don
nelly organize his new party. He will
probably give himself up at once.
