Second Of the Van Gorder Murderers
Executed at Auburn Yesterday.

Auburn, ~ Y, Sept e.-Work was
suspended in Auburn prison yesterday
except in the execution chamber,
where one more mortal was sent into
eternity by State Electrician Davis,
making the 31st at this prison. His
name is entered in all the records as
Ciuzeppe Varsacia and he was the ac.
cCmplice of the late Antonio Giorgio.
who was electrocuted last Tuesday
for the dual murder at West Almond.
Allegany county, in May last.
On the trial 1t was proved that Hior.
glo killed Van Gorder in Versacia's g
presence and compelled the latter to
kill Miss Farnham, half sister Of the
first victim.
Versacia entered the death chamber
with slouching gait, a hunted ex'
preston upon his face, crucifix tight
ly clenched in one hand. He did moi
begin praying aloud until seated in
tie chair, when he kissed the sacred
emblem in his hand and surrendered II
to his confessor, Rev. Father Canalli OF
st. Bernard's seminary of Rochester
His suppllcations were then uttered
rapidly and necessarily

claim in high key and In his native
Italian, "Oh, Lord pardon me-" In the
midst Of one of these trembling repe
titions the first shock of 100 volts OF
seven amperes overlook him and all
was still as death.
The electrician explained that he
caught him just where it was neces
sary to make an electrocution perfect
which is Just at the expiration of the
last breath from the body and before
starting to inhale another The lungs
are thus free from air, there is little
heart action and death Is instantan
eous.
Delicate instruments for detecting
heart beats were applied, as usual, iT
this case and failed to register flut
ter. Another contact was given, how
ever and then the physicians were in
vited to attend the autopsy an hour la
ter.
The electrocution proper, from the
time the victim entered the room un
til he was pronounced dead, had occu
pied just three minutes.
Versacia was only 21 years of age
Relatives have not made any applica
ton for the body and it will be buried
In the state lot in quick lime. There
are four more occupants of the cells
for the condemned.

COPPER FILTER TOO COSTLY.
New Process to Be Tested by AsricuI-
tural Department.

Pittsburg, Sept 5.-City Bacteriolo-
gist E. G. Matson does not believe the
new process Of treating water with
solution of copper to rid 1t Of typhoid
fever germs will ever achieve much
success. The rev theory is now about
To be tested by the department of ag-
riculture at Washington, D. c., as
there is typhoid fever epidemic there
now.
Dr. Matson is Of the opinion the
process is too costly and will not prove
effective. Tho process was discov-
cred by Dr. George T. Moore, physiolo-
gist In the laboratory of the plant OF
physiology at Washington, and 1t is
baid it was tested in Baltimore
Springfield Mass; Indianapolis and
Butte, Mont, recently, but with what
success is not known.
DR.. Watson said sand filtration is
the cheapest and most practical pro
cess of filtering water. To use the
copper solution in this city would
cost 1000 day for the copper. This
does not include the expense Of ship
ping and treatment. Several million
gallons of water are pumped into the
Highland reservoir every day. 1t
would require 1000 pounds of copper
each day to purify the water.
DR.. Watson said there was no doubt
the copper solution would kill vegeta-
tion and other growths in the water,
but whether If would dispose Of ty-
phoid fever germs is another matter.
