Id the death chamber when Jeremiah Cot to,
who brutally murdered in Now Utrecht

ytien toe wituesaea were all seated in lue
chamber of death ready to view the execu
tion Warden Brown made the customary
address requesting the spectators to keep
their seats until all was over with Cotto.
He added that everything possible had been
done to prevent accident. The electrical
apparatus waa then tested and found to be
in perfect working oraer. Warden Brown
then nodded to Keeper Oonnaughton and
together they went after the doomed man.

tnnity to observe the new chair. It differed
materially from that la which McBlviUne
was electrocuted, being much smaller and
made so that both legs reach straight to the
floor.
Cotto' Bres II nlrtl with Horror.
The spectators had barely time to notice
this when the low muttering of the Ap
proaching procession was heard. First en
tered Warden Brown and Keeper Oon
naughton, then the murderer, whose head
was bowed. His face was deathly pale and
his eyes bulged with horror. As soon as he
caught a glimpse of the death chair he stag
gered and looked as if he were about to
faint. From then on until he was strapped
securely la the chair he uttered aloud in
Italian the prayer, "Jeeos, have mercy on
me."
Appcnred to lie lit Terrific About
Warden Brown hurried the murderer into
the chair, and, assisted by the keepers, he
quickly strapped Cotto in toe chair. A
narrower band than the one used for Mc
Bivalne was placed over his forehead. The
limbs were strapped tightly and Warden
Brown announced that all was ready. Elec
trician Davis bent down and examined' the
band connecting the right leg with the elec
trode and a second later the signal was
given.
Then the strange burrowing sound and
the machinery began its death work. The
figure began to squirm as beet it could, the
stomach moved upward, the legs quivered
and the whole body trembled in what must
haro been terrific agony. Tho current was
turned off instantly by Davis, and was I
again turned on. When the second shock ;
was started the right side of the face had
been discolored almost beyond recognition.
The fingers relaxed and the face took on a
purple huo of a peculiar shade. Dr. Irvine
felt the pulse and then nodded knowingly
to Mr. Davis, who again for the third time
touched the button. A second later the
current was released.
Dr. Irvine then bent over the body and
listened to the heart "The man is dead
but his heart still beats," he excitedly said.
Still another fihock. After this one Dr.
Irvino applied a stethoscope to tho heart.
Thero waa still movement, and once again
the current charged the murderer's body.
Then Drs. Irvine and Abbott examined the
heart and announced that life was extinct.
The fifth tbock was turned on only as a
matter of safety. The Interval between
each shock was about twelve seconds.
A Startling DUcoiery.
A surprising discovery was made a few
moments later when the body was laid out
for the autopsy. About the neck was a
dark circle and the face was entirely for
eign to the color of the body. One of the
physicians present stepped up and ran his
finger down the ehirt and neck. Then, with
an exclamation of horror, he declared it was
tight enough almost to have choked Cotto
to death. The physicians looked at each
other curiously, but nothing farther was
said.
On the right log where the electrode had
been fastened were two ugly blue blotches
and in two places the skin had separated
from the limbs. The body all over was a
grayish color. The face was sickening to
behold, each feature waa horribly distorted
and the skin in spots was as black as cool.
It was agreed by all the spectators that
Cotto died much harder than McElvaiae,
The spasmodic movements of Cotto's body
indicated a frightful Internal death strug
gle. The first current turned on had a
force of 1,780 volts. The other shocks varied
from 1,800 to 1,700.

Mr. Harry Vane MUbank called at The

subjoined statement far publication:
33 West BivanmasTn street;
New Yoar, March SO, 1W& t
The time has now corns when Mr. H A.
Borrowe's honor and reputation most be
cleared of the imputations Ifcat now rest on
them. Two gravo offences are charged
against him; one that the correspondence
In the affair was published with his author
ity. This is disposed of completely by Mr.
Foxs letter to Mr. Borrowe, in which he
gives his reasons for sending tho corre
spondence to the papers after Mr. Borrowe
left England.
The sscond and far graver offence alleged
against him is that the agreement referred
to, upon which his second, M. Fox, and my
self based our refusal to allow him to meet
Mr. Drayton, existed only In his imagina
tion and was merely a subterfugs to covci
his own cowardice.
This seems to have been generally accept
ed by Mr. Drayton's friends, and on the
strength of this Mr. Drayton is alleged to
have publicly stated Mr. Borrowe to be a
"cur and a coward." There seems to be a
general agreement to ostracise Mr. Borrowe
on these grounds and to treat him more ox
less as a pariah, I have acted for him since
the beginning of the matter, and we have
had to fight against tremendous odds.
The Monetary Agreement
My first duty to Mr. Borrowe Is to do
everything in my power to clear his charac
ter before the world. This step I take now
entirely on my own responsibility, as at
present his honor, his reputation, his entire
future turns on this one point:
Was an agreement entered Into between
Mr. J. Coleman Drayton and hiswifev ThU
agreement was made. It was drawn up by
Messrs. Lord, Day Se Lord. Colonel Hasard
was a subscribing witness, and later on In
the beginning of February this year the
terms of tho agreement were enforced by
Mr. Drayton's lawyers In London, Messrs
Eiogsford & Dannon, It is dated Oct. 24,
1891, and tho part which contains the mone
tary consideration is to the following effect.
The wlfo has an Income of 135,000 per annum,
under aU circumstances she retains one-half.
She agrees that the other naif be placed with,
trustees, E5.U0O of which shall be paid to the
husband, and 113,000 to herseUfor maintenance
of children; ont of tbe moneys she r tool re
wife to keep np cetbllkmsnt for husband
and family. Too husband's S,(D3 far hie
personal expenses, such aa clothing:, amaze
ments, traveling, medical attendance, ete. Wife
agrees, should she hold any verbal or written
communication with Mr. II. A. Borrow, that
the J 12,000 for children shall be paid to tha hus
band, and he shall hare control of same and
children. Husband on his part agrees that for
the $3,000 he will go to Europe with his wife,
and make his dwelling place there wit hher.
Will Drayton Deny It?
Mr. H. A. Borrowe has always asserted
and asserts still his entire- innocence as te
the charges brought by Mr. Drayton ngainst
bis wife, and that the latter only consented
to enter into this agreement under tbe pres
sure brought to bear on her by her husband
and by threats to moke the occupation pub
lic, which, though groundless, he did not
scruple to bring against her. All men ot
honor will now be able to judge wbethci
Mr. Fox and myself were justified in the
course wo took in refusing to allow a duel
to take place.
We could not and would not state any
thing of this to Mr. Drayton's second, they
owned themsolres that they only knew him
in the fencing room, indeed one of them is
tbe fencing master ot the establishment,
Here then is the truth. Will Mr. Drayton

Borrowe to rest under the imputation ol
being a liar and a coward, and all the time
he knew this to be raise.
Henry Vane Milbank.
Borrow rnbtlahed It.
London, March 31. -There is no doubt
whatevor that Borrowe saw and sanctioned
the entire correspondence which Ed Fox
sold concerning the duel. The typewritten
copies of this correspondence were made be-
lore uorrowe sailed, i ox Eept one copy.
The other was given to Tom Ochiltree, whe
says emphatically that ho had no interest
whatever in anything sold for publication.
Ochiltree's connection witn tms caso is
mainly due to his affiliations with General
Williams. Questioned by a reporter Ochil
tree furnhhed the following statement!
"I was called upon by the counsel of Mrs.
Drayton at one Btage of this affair to act in
an advisory capacity. I deprecated any ac
tion that would reflect upon Mrs. Drayton,
and sought in every way to shield her and
her family from scandal. I advised her In
letters and conversations to seek the sheltei
of the parental roof, and to endeavor in all
things to obey all reasonable behests of hei
father or mother.
'The assertion that I was governed by
pecuniary considerations and profited by
the publication of the correspondence Is se
Infamous that I will not dignify it by a de
nial My recollection is that under certain
contingencies Fox was to cause the publica
tlonof the correspondence. Borrows was
certainly privy to this understanding. 3
I don't think that Mr. MUbank was."
Fox positively deehaed to tall a reporto
whether MUbank knew of the prearranged
plan for publicity, bat he does say distinct
ly that Borrowe knew all about it before
be sailed and was instrumental in arrang
ing tho correspondence as originally pub
lished. As MUbank and Fox acted jointly from
beginning to end in the negotiations with
Drayton, it seems incredible that MUbank
could hare been ignorant of Fox's bargain
to dispose of the information which had
been intrusted to him as an affair of honor.
Whether MUbank Is entitled to his repu
tation of a crack duelist may be questioned,
but people here most famUiar with him re
gard It as beyond doubt that he has killed
his man in a fair fight
Fox Accnaei MUbank and Borrow.
LONDO.f, March 20. Ed Fox, In discussing
the Drayton affair! says that the original
statement of the Drayton scandal cabted to
New York was practically edited by both
Borrowe and Milbank, and that nothing
was made public of which they were not
made cogBizant. Mil bank cabled from
Queen town to Fox that thsr had succeeded
ill catching the Majestic, and It waa not un
til tbe steamer was well out to sea that the
mecBaga, of which both Borrows and Mil
bank ware fully lnfarmed. was pat on the

At the close of the war he obtained a
clerkship In the Interior department, from
which ho was dismissed when hia superior
officer learned that he was the author of
"Leaves of Orass." lie obtained a clerk
ship In the attorney general's office, how
ever, which he kept until 1874. In rebru
ary, 1873, he had a stroke of paralysis, re
sulting from the exposure of his army life,
aud came here.
Before this, while in Washington, he pub
lished "Passage to India" (1870), "After All,
Not to Create Only (1871, "As a Strong
Bird on Pinions Free" (187S). and a volume
of prose essays, "Democratic VUtae" (WTO,
republished in 1873 and 1888). In 1881 a new
edition of "Loaves of Grass" was published
in Boston, to the sale of which the Massa
chusetts authorities objected on the pround
of immorality. In 1888 Whitman published
"Specimen Days ond Collect," in lb65 "No
vember Boughs," and in 188 "Sands at Sev
enty." In the latter year he hod another stroke
of paralysis. It crippled him almost en
tirely, am! on his seventieth birthday his
friends gave to him a pony carriage and
pony, and the "good, gray poet" drove him
self about Camden enjoying tbe outdoor lifo
he had always loved. Uo did not enjoy his
carriage long, however, for his increasing
Infirmity made it unsuitable to him, and for
two years he took his outdoor exercise in a
wheeled chair.
Ills infirmity woe physical not mental,
however, and within a few months ho has
published a farewell volume of poems,
"Good By, My Pancy," wherein he men
tioned with pnthetic bitterness that maga
zine writers had refused his poems, and
confessed that his life was hard almost his
only admission of poverty.
A I'uet Indeed
Of late years the bitter attacks on Whit
man have ceased and he has been admitted
to be indeed a poet. Emerson in 1865 found
beauties in ''Leaves of Grass," even though
he disapproved of the book, and since then,
especially from England, came commenda
tion. William Roesetti published a selec
tion of tbe poems In 1668 and Walter Scott
has published two further selections, while
Edward Dowdcn has mode still a fourth
selection. Tennyson and George Eliot have
ranked Whitman high among American
poets, and the poet has spoken gratefully of
, the "friendly inouth'd, just opportune Eng
lish, action" which comforted him in his
troubles.
Whitman was dependent entirely on the
sale of his books, and while never rich, of
ate years he has been absolutely poor. He
steadily refused to accept charity, however,
lie never was married. It was said that a
disappointment in early life waa the cause.
