TERRIBLE PUNISHMENT.
Assassin Will Be Sentenced to Soil
tarv Life Imprisonment.

New York, Sept 13.-A dispatch to the
World from Geneva says: The life i'm
prisonment with solitary confinement in
store for the Austrian empress assassin
IS declared by those acquainted with SWISS
prisons to be vastly worse than death.
A correspondent who recently visited the
chief prison of the canton of Vaud, where
the assassin win be confined. describes as
sad, indeed, the result of solitary life i'm
prisonment. One man who he saw, the
perpetrator of a series of murders in the
mountains. had been in the cell for 10
years, with the result that he completely
lost his reason. The governor of the
prison confessed that in view of this and
other similar cases, his views of capital
punishment had undergone a complete
change and that he was now strongly In
favor of the death penalty.
Mr.. Ridgeley, the American consul here,
was informed tonight by a cabinet officer
that inasmuch as it would please the
authorities to send the assassin to Austria
for trial. it cannot be done under the con-
stitution. Had the crime been committed
in the private apartment of the empress,
instead of on the public street, eXtradi-
ton would have been possible
Upon sentence of life Imprisonment
the assassin will be placed in a small,
dark cell, from which he will never
emerge and will be fed just enough to en-
able him to support life.
