Only a deliberate pe'i can adequately describe the scene. Dr Fell stepted forward with a long syringe in his hand and dHi ly wetted two sionges whvh were at the elei-tioies. one on tcp- of the head and he other at the hase of the seine. The water which he put on i hem was impregnated with salt. Ot. Spitzka answered ,ihe wurden's queMion with a shrut 'all right." which was echoed bj the o'hern about him. Kemra'er was killed at 6:10. The first shock was not succeaful. He re vi vel, and there were fre quent restorations, though the di'Ctors claim there was nocon sciousnes. After some delajy the current wa turned on agon and kepi on for 'our and one-naif min utes, the first contact having been 12 seconds. The current was- kep on the t-e ond time until the body fumed and gave, off - amdeasant o lor. Dr. Sj'itska.tbtfcalebrated expert, said afterwir fc. tht the experiment was a failure, and this would settle electrocution. "There will never be another," paid lie. Kemmler's nerve was Homethint! wonderful. He never faltered. He directed the adjustment of himself in the chair and coun selled the warden to mderatioii to secure perfect safety. The shock whs given at 6 :43j and was continued about IS seconds. Two minutes after the current was cut off there was evidence of respi ration "Turn the current on instantly. The man ia not dead," cied Spitz ka. Faces grew white and forms fell ack from the chair. The warden prang to the (loot way and ciied, 'turn on the cm rem, but tm enr-ent could not be turned on.

It came witlt the same suddenness that marked the first shock whicn oasse 1 through K-mmltrr's body.

Time was to oe no mis take this time about the killing. The dynamo was run up to the highest speed and again the lull current oi 20 K) VoitJ was sent tnrough the body. How long this waskei tin action io one knows. To the excited groui about the chair it t-eei.ied an inte'ininab e time. Dr. Daniel, who looked at toe watch excitedly, and who thought he had an ap propriate idea o the time, at least, said it was four and a half minutes in all. Tbe warden's assistant, who stood over the dynamo, said that on the second signal the machinery ran onlv three and a half minutes altogether. No doubt this time the current nad done its work, if not well,, at least completely. Dr. Fell, who stood at the side of a special cor respondent of the Associated Press, turned and said: ''Well, there is no di ubt about one thing. The man never suffered an iota ot pain." In i n after consultation, other physicians expressed the same I ebef. It was some mitiga tion of the h' riora of the si'uaiion to believe t'ds. but the-mitigation was extremely slight. Tiie autopsy began at 9 o'clock, ft was found when the body wa spread out on the table, that very severe rigor tno-tw bail set i'i There was little relaxation and i was with dimcuity ine corpse was straightened out.
