HORRIBLE SCENES
WITNESSED AT AN EXECUTION IN
THE AUBURN PRISON.
The First Application of the Dynamo
Fails to Cause Death-The Con-
demned Suffers Intensely.
Special to the REcoRD-UN1oN.

Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
AUBURN On. ", July 27.-One of the
most horrible scenes that has attended
any of the executions in this prison was
witnessed to-day, when an effort was
made to kill William G. Taylor.
After the first shock, which was only
LOO volts power and not of sufficient
length, the dynamo was exhausted. A
second current could not be applied and
the doctors, officials and reporters saw
the condemned man writhe in agony
and finally open his eyes, giving every
evidence of full return to consciousness.
He struggled for some moments and then
collapsed, but his respiration and pulse
showed that he was not dead.
The prison electrician ordered another
current to be sent through the suffering
murderer, but the dynamo refused to
work, and the straps that bound Taylor
to the chair were removed, the electrical
apparatus was unlocked and Taylor was
carried into the hospital, his body horri-
bly, contorted and froth issuing from his
mouth.
The scene was so terrible that one of the
prison officials tainted and the doctors
said it had not been equaled in their ex-
perience.
AS soon as Taylor had been removed
the electricians began working on the
dynamo, and two hours later, during
which time the condemned man had been
kept quiet with opiates, the electric ap-
paratus was reported to be in order.
Connection had been made with the
city electric light dynamo, and after the
current had been tested it was pronounced
capable of killing dozen men.
Taylor was carried back to the death
chair in q cot, and such was the agony
that he endured that the morphine injec-
tions failed to give him relief.
At 1:55 o'clock the current was again
turned on and in five minutes the culprit
was said to be dead.
This execution rivaled in horror that of
Kemmler, who suffered such agony in
the chair.
The crime for which Taylor suffered SO
horribly was committed in this peniten-
tiary last September. Taylor was long
term prisoner, and swore that he would
not live out his sentence.
He preferred to die rather than be re-
strained of his liberty, and on more than
one occasion sought to take his life.
Failing in this, he killed fellow-con-
vict, Solomon Johnson. by cutting his
throat; he made no defense, saying it was
done deliberately and for the purpose of
eneompassing his own death.
1t is probable that an effort will be
made to fix the blame on the person or
DarSous res0onsibIa for the atvfrl traro5x,
of his execution.
Taylor was negro. He professed re-
pentance before his death.

FRANCo-sIAMEsE TROUBLE.
Rumor That All Difficulties Have
Been Settled.

huuOr 4naU All D11nCultl6S Lave
Been Settled.
LONDON, July 27.-The Pail Mall Ga
2ette says this evening that it learns from
nigh authority that the Franco-Siamese
difficulty has been settled. France has
agreed TO accept Siam's proposals, and
abandon her claims to territory between
the eighteenth and twenty-third parallel.
In the House ofLords this evening Rose
berry announced that he could not make
a full statement regarding the Siamese
matter until report was received from
Lord Dufferin in Paris. From the outset
Great Britain had confined itself to pro-
vlding for the safety of British lives and
Interests in Bangkok. 1t had from the
beginning avoided giving advice to Siam
beyond occasions when she asked for it,
but had urged her to make terms as
quickly as possible with her powerful
nelghbor. Nevertheless the British Gov
ernment was not Indifferent to the
events now passing in Siam. Her
great commercial interests there
would be looked after. The blockade
might raise some questions of inter-
national law, but Great Britain was not
yet formally advised of 1t, and perhaps
the necessity might be averted. The Gov
ernment was glad to believe France no
less alive than. Great Britain to the value
of Siamese independence, regarding it as
matter of importance that France and
Great Britain should not have co-termin-
GUS frontiers, because that would involve
great military expenditures and create
liability to a panic. In the Commons Sir
Edward Grey made a similar statement.
NOTICE OF BLOCKADE.
BANGKOK, July 27.-The French fleet
gave notice of the blockade to-day, all
outgoing vessels being warned to clear
by Saturday or be tied up. The blockade
will extend along the entire north coast
of the gulf. There is little doubt among
foreigners that it is the French intention
to make Siam French colony, and un-
less England intervene there is little hope
that the French will desist from extreme
measures, although it is well known to
them that the Government of Siam is
exceedingly anxious to avoid war.

Congressional Investigation to Be Made
of the Site Purchase.
WAsHINGToN, July 27.-AIl indications
now point TO Congressional investiga-
ton of the recent sale and purchase of
site for a Postoffice at San Francisco.
Congressman John Ii. Bankhead of Ala
bama, Chairman of the House Committee
on Public Buildings and Grounds, has
ordered all work on the Postoffice plans
stopped until thorough examination can
be made of everything which led to the
payment of Sl,040,000 for property which
experts say is not worth over half that.
Just what Chairman Bankhead is going
to do and exactly how he will proceed are
not known, but it is generally under
stood by his friends that lie will not only
enter vigorous protest against the pres
ent site being used and give full vent to
his reasons when Congress again meets,
but that he will carry out his intention of
calling for searching investigation.
1t is known that he has conducted a
quiet investigation himself relative to the
methods of the selection of this site, ana
he has said that if his information proves
to be authentic, men of prominence both
on the Pacific and Atlantic Coasts will be
implicated in the alleged wrong-doing.

DENVER, July 27.-The lynching of the
Italian Arata last night has shown the
immense crowd of idle workmen at pres
ent in Denver what can be accomplished
by violence, and there is dread in the
minds of many citizens that a riot of
enormous size, having for its purpose the
looting of the city, may break out at any
time. Thousands of unemployed work
men already here are being augmented
daily by others from throughout the
State, who are gradually working their
way to Denver. The county and city and
numerous charity organizations are do
ing their best to feed and shelter the great
army of penniless people, but are in
capable of meeting all demands.
The banks of the city have called upon
the United States troops at Fort Logan,
Of which there are 700, to be ready to pro-
tect their institutions in case of an out
break. Some of the banks are United
States repositories, and thus have the
right to ask Government protection from
the unemployed. The members of the
militia and Chaffee Light Artillery are
now under arms at the armory awaiting
developments. Mayor Vanhorn has is
sued proclamation requesting all good
citizens not to congregate on the streets,
as it may lead to an outbreak.
This evening large crowd of unem-
ployed gathered at Eighteenth and
Market streets to exchange ideas on
the question of food and shelter. The
police broke the meeting up, but Larimer
street is thronged for blocks with people,
many being merely curiosity. seekers
waiting for something unusual to occur.

SAN Francisco, July "a thirty-six
days battle with flames was ended to-
night by the arrival of the British ship
Cedar Bank, from Newcastle, New South
Wales.
The vessel started on March Sd. and
was laden with coal, and had fair voy-
age until June 10th, when the cargo was
discovered to be on fire. Prompt efforts
TO extinguish tho flames proved unavail-
ing, and it was decided to jettison part of
the cargo. Two hundred and sixty tons
were thrown overheard, and then, owing
to the extreme heat i'll the hold and the
great difficulty i'll handling the burning
coal, 1t was necessary to desist. Large
quantities of water were thrown into the
holds, the pumps part of the time going
night and day.
ON July 10th two explosions occurred.
and the flames burst out and ran all over
the hold. The matches were kept bat
toned down as much as possible. The
crew was obliged Oh account of the heat
10 abandon their quarters lin the fore
castle and go aft. Boats were provlsioned
and towed astern for an emergency. One
day another vessed hove in sight, but
passed without seeing the Cedar Banks
signal of distress.
The tire continued to make headway,
and the decks, sides, ventilators and
all parts of the vessel became yery
much heated, and smoke poured from the
matches and other crevices. Port was
finally made i'll safety.
The vessel will be beached and the cargo
flooded.

He Says the Annexation Spirit is Not
Dying Out.
CHICAGO, July 27.-Hon. L. A. Thurs
ton, Hawaiian Minister at Washington,
at present in Chicago in connection with
the Hawaiian exhibit at the fair, in reply
to a statement that the annexation spirit
at the islands is dying out, and that even
the Provisional Government leaders, in
Guiding himself, had given up all hope of
annexation, and that the desire for the
restoration of the Queen was rapidly
growing, said: ''These statements are
absolutely incorrect. So far from the an
nexation spirit dying out, it is stronger
to-day than ever before. l am not speak
ing at random in this matter, as l am in
constant receipt OF Hawaiian papers and
in correspondence with President Dole,
Attorney-General Smith and others of
the Provisional Government leaders. l
have also received a number of letters
from prominent native Hawaiians. My
last advices from Honolulu were dated
July 1th. There IS also a continual
stream of Hawaians calling at the Ha-
waiian headquarters, so | am about as
well posted as though l were at home.
II have not seen or heard of the first
sign of weakening. On the contrary, in
spite of the frantic efforts OF Nordhotf
and Spreckels to injure and embarrass the
Government and stir up dissension, the
only effect has been to consolidate the
annexationists and rally practically the
whole business community in support of
the Government"

VALETTA (Malta), July 27.-The court
martial inquiry into the loss of the bat
tle-ship Victoria has decided that Captain
Bourke was not responsible for the dis
aster. Therefore he is acquitted of all
blame. The court expressed regret that
Rear-Admiral Markham, on board the
Camperdown, did not carry out his orig
inal intention and ignore the signal dis
played by order of Admiral Tryon.
The court added, however, relative to
Markham, that it would be fatal to the
best Interests of the service to say he was
to blame for carrying cut directions while
the commander-in-ch was present in
person.
The verdict was that the accident was
entirely due to the order given by Ad-
miral Tryon. All the survivors are ac-
quilted of blame.

CHICO, July 27.-Mondsy man giving
the name of John Smith was arrested in
Tehama County for stealing a mare from
Mrs. J. L. keefer, near this city. The
man was brought to Chico Tuesday and
lodged i'll Jail, and on examination yes
terday he was bound over to the Superior
Court under 81, 800 bonds.
Last night some friend of the prisoner
entered the corridor of the jail, un-
screwed the bolts holding the hasps by
which the cell door is locked, and let the
prisoner out. Nothing has been heard of
the man since. 1t is thought the delivery
was made by some other prisoner who
was bribed. Smith, on examination, ad-
mitted his guilt, and claims to have tray
eled with Fredericks, the Pascoe muir
derer, and that the latter was 100 yards
away when Smith was captured.
