NO HOPE soR MRs-aoeeas.
The First Woman to Be Executed
in Vermont for Many Years.

Rutland, VT. jar. 1S.-The refusal
of Governor Bell to interfere in the
case destroys the last hope of Mrs.
Mary Rogers to escap the gallows.
She will consequently be hanged at
Windsor on February 5 and will be
the first woman to be executed in
Vermont in nearly three quarters of
a century.
Since the announcement of the gov
ernor's decision Mrs. Rogers has not
shown any change in demeanor. Her
only companion is Miss Durkee. the
matron, who treats her with motherly
kindness. The woman's spiritual ad-
wiser says that the prisoner acts and
talks as in a dream, end that the
weight of the doom impending is
markedly manifest. The death war
rant will not be ead TO her until the
day before the execution.
Some of the leading lawyers of
Vermont have declared the opinion
that for 81, 900 the Ease could be car
ried to h United States supreme
court n a stay obtained for so long
a time at least that the woman would
lever hang. Windsor people declare
the execution a disgrace to the state
and public sentiment would be strong
ly nov for the prisoner if the exc
cution were deferred.
