and the rear wheels passed over his body.
His injuries are not serious, however.
tres ~ ons noint in tb course that at
aroused suspicion, and investigation
showed that a quantity Of sharp nails and
broken glass had been thrown on the
roadway. To this was due the retirement
of a number of the machines early in the
race.
OF the eighteen starters but eight re-
manned in the race at the fifth round of
the triangle. or when the race was half
over.
Heath covered the last lap Of thirty
miles at the rate of seventy-two miles an
hour. His average speed during the ten
laps was fifty-two miles an hour.
The four remaining in the race, and
who We're from two to three laps behind
at the finish were called off without being
allowed to finish because of its being
found impossible to keep the crowd any
longer under control after the exciting
first real excitement that brought the
crowd in the grand stand to its feet was
when Clement and Croker were coming to
the line on the second round at a crash
ing speed, with but a second between
them. As they dashed on past the judges
stand. the spectators. along the roadway
scurried into the fields, the people in the
stand rose and cheered. 1t was ON the
next round that Croker punctured a tire
and retired
Campbell Starts First
Campbell. in an eighty horse power
machine, was the first to cross the white
band across the roadway at the start.
He was followed two minutes later by
Gabriel. who held the lead for sixty miles,
or through the second round. His net
time for the second round was 81 min
utes IA seconds, or rate of sixty-two
miles an hour.

CITIZENS ARE DIVIDED
ON FALLS ROAD PLAN
Associations Generally Have Endorsed Scheme and Only
Few Property Owners in M Street Object

Citizens and citizens associations are
taking advantage of the invitation re-
Gently issued by the District Commits
sioners to express opinions relative TO
the proposed new street car line to be
established by the Great Falls and Old
Dominion Railroad Company. The citi-
zens' associations. judging from the let
tiers received, are all in favor of the
road. and have pledged their support be-
fore the committees in Congress.
AS for the citizens, some are for the
road and some are against. The Cen
trail Labor Union, representing 5000
workingmen living in the northeast and
southeast sections of the city. has gone
on record as a champion of the new
road on the ground that the two sec
tions mentioned will be greatly bene-
flied.
Letters of protest are mostly from
property owners along NJ Street. which
is the line of the proposed road. The
reasons given are usually personal loss

by decreasing the value of their hold
ings The argument of those in favor
of the road is "the greatest good for the
greatest number" regardless of indi-
vidual profit or loss. The following let
ter was received by the Commissioners
yesterday from a prominent Washing
ton firm:
THE undersigned. owning the Augusta
apartment house. located on the south
east corner of New York and New Jer-
sey Avenues northwest. desires earnest
~ to urge your honorable body to allow

and New Jersey AveSue TO the Union
Station
This section of Washington lacks
suitable railroad facilities. While it is
true the Washington Traction Com
pany's line passes through New York

because OF its suburban nature and poor
schedule. it is not able or certainly

VERsAcIA ELEcTRocUTED.
Second Of the Van Gorder Murderers
Executed at Auburn Yesterday.

Auburn, N Y, Sept. G.-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 a1st at this prison. His
name is entered in all the records as
Ciuzeppe Varsacia and he was the ac
cGmplice 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 it was proved that Hior
glo killed Van Gorder in Versacia's
presence and compelled the latter to
kill Miss Farnham, half sister Of the
first victim.
Versacia entered the death chamber
with a slouching gait, hunted ex
preston upon his face, a crucifix tight
ly clenched in one hand. He did not
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.
Even after the mask had been buck
led over his face he continued to ex
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 LOO 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, in
this case and failed tc register a 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 q 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.
