MURDERDR D1ncTRocUTED.

New York, July 1.--Seldom, II ever be-
fore in the history Of criminal procedure
in this country, has there been such a
determined and untiring legal fight made
to save or prolong the life of a con-
demned murderer as that which was
made in behalf of DR.. r. w. Buchanan,
the convicted wife poisoner who was
electrocuted today Buchanan has prac-
tlcally been on the threshold OF the death
cell no less than three times since he
was sentenced.
DR.. R. w. Buchanan began business as
a drug clerk in Halifax, N S. He was
"a graduate Of the College of Physicians,
Chicago, and also of the University of
Edinburg, Scotland. He married Miss
Helen J. Patterson and they went to New
York to live. He soon became dlssipated
and they separated. After divorce he
married Annie Sutherland, a wealthy
sporting woman old enough to be his
mother She became Ill in April, 1892, and
two witnesses saw the doctor give his
wife two spoonsful of medicine and the
next night she died. AT the funeral he
laughed and joked and told many people
that the dead woman had left him $4,000
In one month he secretly remarked his
divorced wife in Halifax, N. s., and they
returned to New York under AN assumed
name. AS the facts leaked out through
the papers Buchanan became frightened
and spread the report that the deceased
woman was addicted to the. morphine
habit. In a burst OF confidence he said
to IA friend: Il wish to God / had Gre
mated her; then the newspapers and
authorities could go to hell" On June 9TH
the body was dlsinterred and an autopsy
held. The following day Buchanan was
arrested on a charge of murder. His trial
cost the county about $4,000.
