THE TAYLOR EXECUTION.

For the first time since the execution
of Kemmler the electric chair failed
yesterday to do its work promptly and
effectively. William G.. Taylor, a bru-
tai negro murderer, was executed at
Auburn, but the carrying out of the SEN
tence imposed by the court was attended
by circumstances revolving to sensitive
natures.
After the condemned man had been
placed in the chair the current was
turned on. At the same moment the
foot-rest broke and, strange to say, the
dynamo also became useless through the
burning of the armature. The convict
began to breathe and moan, he had not
been killed by the first contact and
nothing could be done but to carry him
to cot, where for nearly an hour he was
kept under the influence of morphine
and chloroform until electric light wires
could be connected with the death
chair. Then he was strapped down
again and the execution completed.
1t may be this accident to the prison
electric plant was unavoidable, but it is
more than probable it was due to lack
of care on some ones part. Executions
are not so frequent that there is not
sufficient time to keep tho machinery in
perfect condition and it is hardly con-
ceivable that had Electrician Davis
given that care and attention to his
work which the circumstances
demanded, the distressing scene at
Auburn yesterday could not have been
avoided.

COUSIN BEN'S SPEECH.

President Cleveland's cousin Ben has
been several years in office, as consul at
She field. England, and he has only just
contrived to make himself noticeable
figure.
He somehow got himself made chair
man of meeting held on the Fourth of
July, and delivered what he fondly con-
sidered an Grafton. II was little more
than quotation from the Democratic
national platform and a strong assur-
ance that the Democratic party would
devote itself 10 the interests of the
English friends of Cousin Ben. This is
what he said, among other things:
Eneiands greatest customer has boon the United
States and Ia spite of tariffs that have been raiscd
against foreign countries there Is and must con-
tinue to he. great and gigantic trade flowing
from England TO America You have passed the

branches.
This is from the cousin of the presi-
dent of the United States. IL Is inter.
esting. though not specially important.
Ii recalls the Old saw about learning the
truth out Of the mouths Of fools and
children.
Cousin Ben spoke out of the fulness
of his Democratic heart, just rs he felt
and just as he knew Cousin Grover and
all the hosts OF the Demo ratio party
felt lie had evidently not been in
formed that the latest Democratic view
The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1893-07-28

of the tariff is that il is not to be at
present meddled with. He had not
heard the click Of the closing bank
doors, the reports of the mill shut
downs, the groans of the capitalists and
the walls of the workmen-caused by
the nero fear that the tariff may be
reformed" by the Democrats.
Some Republican journals appear to
regard Cousin Ben's speech as import
ant, despite the perfectly well-known
fact that he never in his life uttered an
important speech or performed an i'm
portant act before.
The trouble with Cousin Ben evil
IDENTIFY is that having been quiet for so
long time the president had become
lulled into false security and had
ceased to keep the Sheffield consul sup
piled with instructions mp to date.

THE new postal cards will cost the
government less than SO cents per
thousand and it will get so per thousand
for them, after delivering them all the
way from Maine to Oregon and from
the Gulf of Mexico to Manitoba. The
government gets the cards cheaply
enough and delivers them cheaply
enough, the people who buy and use
them get them cheaply enough, and
they are likely to be cheap enough
themselves.

WORSE THAN A FAKE.

The story sent out from Taunton
yesterday was worse than "fake.' 1t
was cruel and indefensible and none the
less reprehensible if intended as joke.
Miss Borden has suffered enough
already to receive decent treatment and
to be free from the machination of un-
considerable sensation mongers. True,
as The News said yesterday, the story
carried contradiction on its face, but
that is no excuse for the person who sent
out the sensational report.
Nor should he be allowed to go with
out rebuke or punishment. He should
be found and driven out Of the ranks of
decent journalism. That is the only
effective means of treating those who
deceive the public and disgrace the
profession with which they have a
temporary and precarious connection.
Nor is the press association, which
gave it its widespread currency, wholly
without blame. 1t would not have
taken the manager of the association
lwo minutes time to have arrived at
the falsity of the rumor before sending
it broadcast over the Union, but the
mismanagement which has for years
characterized the New England Asso-
ciated Press showed up again yesterday,
and woman's heart was wrung with
sorrow and her name coupled again with
shameful charges because of failure to
verify rumor that was palpably absurd
on its face.
