The method of executing criminals by
electricity which went into operation in
New York In 1890 has raised an interesting
question in the matter of criminal statis-
tics, and one which so far seems TO be
rather puzzlng in its nature. The staus-
tics of the superintendent Of state prisons
Of New York show that since the law went
into effect there have been forty electrocu-
lions. whereas prior to that time and since
the creation of the state there had been
only $50 hansings. as far as the prison de-
partment has been able to learn from sta
tistics gather from all the counties. This
means that within the last seven years
there has been an Increase in executions of
more than 200 per cent. a year as com
pared with the number for the preceding
100 years.
This great increase in the number of exc
cutions naturally raises the question as
to the cause or causes for it. Ohio adopt
ed the electrical method of execution lit
tie more than a year ago, but so far there
has been no increase in executions in that
state there having been during the year
four convictions, and two of the criminals
in these cases are stin waiting their fate
in the electrical chair. Chief Clerk Baker
of the New York prison department be-
lieves that the increase in that state is
due to either one or both of two condi-
tions. namely that juries, on account of
the humanity of the electrical method are
more ready to convict. and that the place
of execution being removed from the coun-
" where the criminal is known there Is
less likelihood of successful efforts being
made for executive c7emency.
If these were the only conditions re-
sponsible for the increase in the number of
executions in New York it would seem that
Ohio would have had similar experience,
though 1t is true that Ohio has not had
the law in operation a sufficient length of
time to give IL a fair test in that particu-
lar. Statistics do not show that there has
been any extraordinary increase in crime
at any period within the last six or seven
years so it is altogether likely that public
opinion has been an important factor in
the matter in New York state. 1t is not
likely that electrocution Is any less de-
terreut of crime than Is hanging, for after
all 1t is more a matter of losing life itself
than the manner of losing il. 1t may be
that the humanity of the method has had
a tendency to make juries some
what more severe In their verdicts,
but what seems 10 be most important is
the assertiveness Of public opinion partic-
ularly through the medium OF the press
against allowing crimes to go unpublished
and against inadequate punishment for
criminals. OF this there has been a re-
markable growth within the last decade,
and nowhere perhaps has II been more
| strongly felt than in New York. There is
little doubt that statistics taken from
| other communities would establish the
| truth of this assertion.
