MURDERER SHEA ELecTRocuTep
Died in the Fatal chair at Danuamora
Before Noon.

DannamOra, n. Y, Feb. 11.-Murder-
er Bat Shea was electrocuted at prison
at 1858 this morning.
Bartholomew Shea died in the cleo
trical chair today, paying the penalty
for the murder of Robert Ross at Troy
in March, 1894. Shea was attended to
the gallows by a clergyman from his
home and a priest from the Roman
Catholic church of this place. After
receiving the last sacrament Shea de-
clared he was innocent The straps
being adjusted, the priest read the SER
vice of the dead While the priest read
the first voltage was turned on. 1t
was 1855 when Shea entered the room
and 9:59% when he was pronounced
dead The current sent the body light
ly against the straps. The neck and
bare leg grew purple. For 81 seconds
the contact was maintained and re-
duced to light voltage for 81 seconds,
when the current was turned off. There
was an escape of air from the filled
lungs and Ransom ordered the current
on again. A contact of 81 seconds was
maintained and then the stethescope
failed to show any life. The escape of
air from the lungs sounded like a pro-
longed sigh and made some people
think there was life, but the physicians
said death was instantaneous.

follow them to the ends of the earth If
necessary to bring them to justice"
Governor Culbertson has gone to the
frontier to direct in person, the move
ments of the militia if necessary to pre-
vent the battle taking place on Texas
territory. Texas will undoubtedly as
sumo jurisdiction of disputed territory

the authorities in that jurisdiction can
arrest the principals before a breach of
the peace takes place.

GERMANS sTauCk SAME OLD sNAe
England Re used TO Mint silver, and the
Conference Is orr.

Berlin, Feb. lin the reichstag to-
day the agrarian leader Count Won Mir
BACH referring to Prince Hohenlohe's
statement on Saturday in regard to BIZ
metallism, said it was the manner in
which Germany sounded Great Britain
upon the subject of a conference which
evoked a negative reply from the latter
country He contended that in order
to arrive at a solution of the question,
a preliminary conference which should
include the United States and France
was necessary.
Prince Hohenlohe replied that Great
Britain had not declined in principle to
take part in the money conference, but
had clearly minated that the opening
of the Indian minis was not contemplat-
ed. In view of this situation, the impe-
rial chancellor continued, no practical
result had been expected from attempts
to raise the price of silver, and he con-
sidered it useless to prosecute them.

ARIZONA GUARDING AGAINST IT
Border VIII BE watched to Prevent
Fighters Going There.

Phoenix, Arizona, Feb. 1.-THE COVER
nor and adjutant general today issued
orders to military companies at Phoe-
nix, Tampa and Tucson to hold them
selves in readiness for immediate SER
vice. This action has been caused by
private advices that Stuart intends to
load his fighters and their audience on
the cars at Ell Paso and make a quick
run into Arizona, where it is believed
the fight can be pulled off near San ST.
mon station without molestation. This
would be less than four hours run from
Ell Paso and the tents could be pitched
and the big fight settled before the
authorities could get to the ground. 1t
is understood the governor has tele-
graphed the interior department, sug-
costing that strong force of United
States deputy marshals shall be sta
toned at the border to block the fight
ers if they turn this way.
