DEEmING IS DowNCAsT.

The Condemned Murderer Becoming
Conscious of His Impending Doom.
MELBOURNE, May A. 4.-Deeming has be-
come very downcast in the past twenty
four hours, and has abandoned all at
tempts at cheerfulness. He appears to
place but little reliance in the pending
appeal to avert the fate in store for him.
He admits that he is now partly con-
vinced that he committed the murder,
but insists that he does not remember
it. He expresses no regret and makes no
professions of repentance, declining to
see the Jail chaplain or clergymen. The
biography which Deeming is writing
details at length the killing of his wife
and four children. The governor of the
Jail has seen the manuscript, and says
the story is incoherent. It is probable
that after the execution experts will
examine Deeming's brain. in order to
determine the question of his sanity.

that land differed from consols or COM

about swindling the shareholders in a
company?"
Amid cries of order, Grahame shouted !:
"This is a swindling speech"
Confusion ensued in the house,
and the speaker called Grahame
to order. The latter refused to
be silent and the speaker named
him. The action was greeted
with cheers, and Grahame retorted
"All right. am named for standing
up for Socialism"

Grahame be suspended. The motion was
seconded and carried without dissent
ing vote, his suspension being for one
week.
When Grahame left the house the
confusion subsided, and the bill was
put to the vote, but rejected by 223 to

accident. He had stepped from one

train was backing from the other
direction, but Miner did not see it, and
all the warning he had was the noise Of
the locomotive and an instant later the
rear car struck him, knocking him
down, and running over his left leg a
little below the knee. As soon as the
train could be stopped the injured man
wa rescued by fellow workmen and
tenderly carried to the railroad Office.
