one minute from the time 10th had

for the fatal stroke. AS he was being
strapped he said: Take It easy" Dr.
Ransom, with his watch in his left hand.
raised his right hand, and the State
electrician at the lever sent LIS volts
into the victim. The body stiffened up
against the straps almost imperceptibly.
and, as in accordance with the new idea,
the voltage was decreased; IL resumed
It's normal attitude. An interval OF five
seconds elapsed, during which there was
not the slightest indication of life, not even
a twitching of the muscles and then Dr.
Ransom again raised his hand. The cleo
trician responded, and the body stiffened
up against the straps once more, the
electrician reducing the current until fin
ally # ceased The physicians then ex-
amined the body, and declared the man
dead, and the murder OF a defenseless
woman was avenged.
The official time of the execution was
as follows: Length of first contact, sixty
seconds; interval between contacts, five
seconds; length of second contact, three
seconds: entire time victim was in tne
death chamber until death was an
nounced, two minutes fifty-fve seconds.

House of fRenresenfnfiree.

A demand for the regular order from
Mr.. kilgOre prevented the consideration
OF several private bills, which members
desired 10 call up Then for almost an
hour the time of the House was consumed
In the consideration Of a resolution to
which there was not the slightest opposi-
tion in any quarter. and which was finally
adopted without objection. II was one
calling upon the executive departments
for information as TO the number and
amount of war claims allowed or disal-
lowed by such departments. Then q
motion to suspend the rules and pass a
bill 10 settle the claims Of Arkansas and
other States under the Swamp Land
Grants failed to secure the necessary
two-thirds vote, and was therefore de-
feated.
Mr.. Chipman, from the Committee on
Election Of President and Vice President,
moved TO suspend the rules and pass
joint resolution providing for the election
of senator's Of the United States by popu-
lar vote.
Mr. Lodge (Senator-elect from Massa-
chusetts) demanded a second. The Re-
publicans refrained from voting and left
the House without a quorum-although
II was but three short of one. Then Mr..
Reed moved for a call Of the House.
Mr.. Reeds motion was defeated-yeas
6: nays Island the tellers resumed their
places A quorum appeared, and the
motion to suspend the rules was sec
onded in two-mnutes' speech Mr..
Lodge opposed the measure, but the
motion to suspend the rules and pass it
was agreed to without division.
The House then at 4:20 adjourned.
