Allen, J.,
concurring in result: The prisoner has been convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to death, and the judgment has been affirmed. This would seem to be enough. I do not think that statistics, not relevant to the decision of the cause, and which are often misleading, have any place in a judicial opinion. Nor do I concur in the indictment against the people of this State, or the administration of her laws. 1 am well assured that facts and conditions existent here do not justify it.
I am authorized to say that Justices Walxer, BRowN, and IIoKE concur in this opinion.
