PRENDERGAsT DEAD.



CHICAGO, July IA crime against
the state was expiated on the gallows
of the Cook county jail yesterday
morning. Nearly nine months have
elapsed since the bullet of an assassin
deprived Chicago of her chief executive,
the state of one of her most illustrious
citizens and the country at large OF a
statesman aud a patriot. The crime
has been avenged and Prendergast has
suffered an ignominious death at the
hands of the hangman. The execution
was devoid of incident for the assassin
went to his death like an OK going to
the SHAMELESS Up to the last moment,
the hope of interposition from some
source or another did not desert him
When it came to the end he ncrved
himself for a supreme effort and paid
the penalty of his crime without
whimper and without a word. Prem
dergast slept soundly Thursday night
and when he awoEe asked for
breakfast of ham and eggs fried
potatoes and coffee. When brought
he would not eat it and ordered porter
house steak, French fried potatoes,
sliced tomatoes and cucumbers, hot
biscuits and d big pot of chocolate.
This he ate like he enjoyed every
mouthful. At 10 o'clock the death
warrant was read. At 1910 the march
to the scaffold took place and Prender-
CAST braced himself for the ordeal and
presented a nervy front. 1t was ap-
parent, however, that he was on the
verge of collapse Finally the signal
was given to the unseen cxecutionist,
and the trap shot downward. The
body swung round and round. There
was one brief conclusive struggle, and
the murder of Carter Harrison had been
avenged. The body was surrounded
by the jury OF physicians, and as soon
as life had been pronounced extinct it
was cut down.

WASHINGTON, July 1s.-Chief Hazen,

as to what action will be taken by the
government in case the governor of
Mississippi refuses to discontinue the
circulation of special warrants in close
imitation of United States notes. The
chief said he could see no other course
than to confiscate the plates and as
many of the warrants as could be
found. The treasury officials do not
question the right of the state to issue
warrants, the only contention being
that the warrants should not be printed
in imitation of United States notes.
