LEGALLY KILLED
Bat Shca's Reprisve Did Not Arrve-Death
BY Electricity

Bat Shea's Rcprisve Did Not Arrive-Death
BY Electricity
DANNEMoRA. n. Y, Feb. l1.--Murderer
Bat Shea was killed at the prison at 9:5S
this morning.
bartholomew Shea died in the electric
chair. paying the penalty for the murder
of Robert Ross of Troy in March, 1894.
Shea was attended to the gallows by a
clergyman from his home and a
priest from the Roman Catholic church
in this case. After receiving the last sac.
rament, Shea declared he was innocent.
The traps being adjusted. the priest read
the service of the dead. While the priest
read, the first voltage was turned on.
1t was 800 when Shea entered the room
and at 8 1854 was pronounced dead. The
current sent The body tightly against the
straps. The neck and barred leg grew
purple. For thirty-onc seconds the con-
tact was maintained and reduced to a
light voltage for thirty-one seconds, when
the current was turned Off. There was an
escape of air from the filled lungs and
DR.. Ransom ordered the current on again.
A contact of twenty seven seconds was
maintained and then the stethescope
failed to show any life. The escape of air
from the lungs sounded like prolonged
sigh and made some people think there
was life. but the physicians said death was
instantaneous.

CIVIL WAR IS POSSIBLE

Canadian House Of Commons-An
Appeal to England

OTTAWA, Onl., Feb. 11.-Hon. A. r.
Dickey, minister of justice, introduced the
Manitoba remedial bill in the house of COM
mons tonight. Mr.. Dickey announced that
the dominion government expects Mani
toba to facilitate the working of the bill.
If it did not. further legislation would be
asked. The bill was given first reading.
1t is on the second reading that tho impor-
tant debate will begin.
EXCITEMENT CAUSED
CHICAGO, Feb. 1.-THE Times-Herald's g
special from Ottawa, Ont, says:
The introduction of the remedial bill in
parliament today caused the widest eX-
element III Manitoba, the province most
directly interested in the passage of the
measure. The Greenway government
openly announces that any attempt to
coerce Manitoba into submission will bring
on serious trouble. Rebellion is likely 10
follow and civil war is possibility. The
Conservatives Of Manitoba, realizing
the danger which threatens the
province and fearing race and
creed war following the passage OF
the bill which restores parochial schools to
Roman Catholics have gone so far as TO
warn the dominion government to consider
tho consequences of hasty action in the
matter.
The galleries of parliament were crowd
