THE CARLISLE HARRIS CASE.
Evidence That his Victim Was a
Morphine Fiend.
Albany, N. Y.; May 8. Tho report
of Commissioner Raines, appointed to
take testimony in) the coso of Carlisle
Harris, and upon which tho governor
based bis refusal to extend clemoy was
made public Saturday. It Is a volum
inous and exhaustive review of tbe
testimony in the case, particularly that
tending to prove that the murdered
girl was a confirmed morphine user.
His conclusion was as follews: "I am
compelled to say that a careful and
conscientious discbarge of my duty
compels my mind to the conclusion up
on the evidence before me that the
deceased took morphine medicinally as
prescribed for her and not otherwise."
SiNdSiNa, May 7. Arrangements
for tbe execution of Carlisle W. Harris,
are about completed and it Is probable
the exeoution will take place Monday
morning before 11 o'clock. Harris
passed a very restless night. He seem
ed to derive pleasuro from the prospect
of a visit from his parents Sunday.
Harris Electrocuted.
Bind Sing, N. Y., May 8.- Carlyle
Harris, the young medical student
whose trial and conviction in New
York City for poisoning Helen Potts,
to whom ho bad been secretly married,
attracted so much attention, was elec
trocuted m prison here today. Throngs
of people gathered on the hillside over
looking tbe gray prison walls, though
the only thing which they could hope
to see was tbe display ot a black flag
above the tower, after he hud been of
ficially pronounced dead.
Every possible cflort was mado to se
cure a reversal of the sentence, and that
falling, to induce Governor Flower to
mitigate the punishment, but without
avail.
He slept little during tbe night, rose
parly this morning and looked over
some manuscript he had prepared to be
given to tbe press after death. He
seemed cooler Ibis morning, and ate a
light breakfast at 8 o'clock.
The death warrant was read to him
at 8:30. Tbe reading had no visible ef
fect on the condemned man, A half
hour later the prison chaplain spent an
hour with him, then one of the medi
cal examiners visited blm, and found
him showing some signs of nervousness,
but nothing more. Harris did not ask
for morphine or any stimulant.
HIS DEATH DESCRIBED.
The witnesses numbered 27, consist
ing of seven physicians, ten newspaper
men, ten state officials and friends.
When tbe warden arrived in the exe
cution chamber, the witnesses took
their seats in a semi-circle around tbe
death chair, and everything being in
readiness two keepers brought Harris
into the chamber, accompanied by tbe
chaplain. He looked pale as he entered
the room, but paused an Instant on tbe
the threshold and calmly surveyed tbe
assembled witnesses.
One of the keepers indicated the
chair to him, and without even a
glance of curiosity at the death-dealing
machine, he stepped forward and took
his seat. As be did so he requested
permission to speak. Thli was accord
ed him. He said, speaking as if eyery
word cost him a great effert: "I have
no further declaration to make, I de
sire to say I am absolutely innocent."
Then he settled back in the
chair, and tbe electrodes
were quickly attached, tho signal
given and the lever clicked sharply
The form of tho condemned man stif
fened till tbe straps creaked, while 1700
volts posted through his frame. At
tbe end of two seconds tho current was
reduced to 150 volts, which was con
tinued 64 seconds longer, when Harris
was pronounced dead. As the current
was fully shut off the body dropped
back limp. An. examination showed
no signs of life, and it was evident that
It had been instantaneous. The execu
tion was most successful. His relatives
will take tht body away this afternoon.
