Whal, took place in the jail yard at
noon to-day. The murder was com
mitted on the evening of November 11,
1874, as the farmer Wahl was driving
to Lis home near Porrysvillo. He was
waylaid by these two men, and while
Myers held the horses Murray sprang
into the wsgufl aud demanded Wahl's
money or his life. Whal attempted to
grapple with him wheu lit drew a re
volver, firing three shots, two of which
took effect in Wahl's abdomen. On the
evening of tho following day, Mtirrsy
and Mycn were both arrested at their
boarding house in this eity and shortly
afterward Myers made a full confession.

him and his friends. He spent last
evening in conversation with bis guards
on various topics, but hot on the subject
of the murder. Myers states that he
was born in Germany, aud is thirty-five
years olJj this, the day of his execution,
being his birthday. He came to this
country, wheu eleven years of ago, and
is a harness maker by trade. Since his
conviction he has devoled mc'stof his
time to religious reading, prayer and
meditation, aud expressed a strong hope
ia his future happiness. During last
night ho employed his time in reading
the Testament aud praying. At eight
o'clock Father Beck, his spiritual ad
viser, visited him and cdniicisteted the
sacrem.iut of the Church, after which
he partook of a hearty breakfast- A

counsel to have his sentence commuted

The over-supply of coal in the
Schuykill region, that caused suspension

that they will be during the present
winter. There is some little mining of
coal in the Lehigh coal region, and any
prospect of a material reduction of tbe
present output will stimulate production.
But at present the. coal trade is very
quiet.
