this morning directed requests to. all

"According to the provisions of the

one of these letters, "this company is

That", the abolishment measure was

the rest of the state, as they had accetiS
to daily papers.
"It made them very nervous," said

The dally mall of the president-elect
is extremely heavy. . O'
the ropes being examined and stretched.
For some time the execution chamber
has been used as a store house for mat-i
tresses and pillows being made by con-!
victs for the atate asylums. These are
being removed and the death traps put!
in order. Tbe scaffold is a permanent!
structure, built in a small room just
,off the south end of the dining room..
There Is provision for changing .two
men at once. The same ropes used in'
former hangings nre there and will be
used again. The hangman's knot, aai
used before, is still intact, Just as thel
ropes were left after the last execution.;
While a close watch is being kept over'
the condemned men the death watch has!
not yet been 1 placed. In the past It;
has been customary to ' keep them in
the second tier of cells in the south'
wing of the penitentisry, but aa new!
cells are now being installed In that'
portion Of, the building; owing to the
noise it was necessary to remove tbeml

are fcept apart from other prisoners. ,

are kept locked continually in their
cells, but Noble Faulder and John W..

who probably committed murder in t
heat of - passion and are Hot nsturui
criminals."
