DEATH ON THE cALLows ENDS
CAREER OF NOTORIOUS CHI.
cAeo CRIMINALS.
Peter Neidermeier, the eoa.tfuI Leader
Of the Youthful Gang, Is Too Weak
to Walk as Result Of His Recent
Attempt at Suicide and Is Carried
to the Trap-Marx and vandine
Meet Their Fate without Flinching.

Chicago, April 22.-Compelled to be
carried to the scaffold Peter Neider-
meier, leader of the car barn bandits,
was hanged here at 10:35 a. m. Weak
and pale, but with slight suggestion
Of smile, the bandit failed to carry
out his oft repeated boast that he
would die before reaching the gallows.
Vandine, quickly followed.
Although it was expected at first
that Neidermeier would be able to
walk to the gallows with but little or
no assistance it was found at the last
moment that he was too weak. Straps
were placed over his ankles and just
above his knees. He was then placed
lower floors of the jail, after which he
was carried to the scaffold and placed
in chair on the trap. He was not
asked the customary question if he
had anything to say and the rope was
quickly placed about his neck. He
instinctively settled his neck into the
moose and the trap was sprung. His
neck was broken by the fall.
Previous to the execution and dur.
ing the reading of the death warrant
Neidermeier snatched the paper from
the chief deputy's hands and placed it
in a pocket and made remarks in anger
at this time and once or twice when
he was being taken to the scaffold.
Gustave Marx Dies Next.
Shortly after IL o'clock Marx was
led to the scaffold, neatly dressed and
with white rose as a bouttOinere,
which had been given him by his small
sister the night before. He was pale,
but his courage never left him while
he stood on the scaffold He made no
statement.
Two priests of the Roman Catholic
church, of which Marx had become
member, accompanied him to the gall
lows. He repeated the Litany with
them and kissed crucifix, after which
the jailer adjusted the moose and
sprang the trap at 11:17. He was pro-
nounced dead at 1884, his neck having
been broken.
Harvey Vandine was hanged after
short interval between that Of his
companion, Marx. Incidents in Van
dimes execution were similar to those
that characterized the execution of
Marx Like Marx he was composed
preceding execution. With the Cath.
olic priests who had accompanied
Marx Vandine walked unfalteringly to
the scaffold, attired neatly in black
like Marx and wearing white waist
coat and with a white rose pinned to
his coat
Vandine made no statement of any
kind while on the scaffold, but the
prayer which he repeated with his
spiritual advisers was quite audible.
With Vandine's lips still moving in
prayer the trap was sprung at 1855.
His neck was broken.
