Deeply Affected,
SlNO Sino. July 8. With two elcctrlo
contacts, consuming not ovor n inlnuto,
Dr. Buchanan wns put to dunth In Slug
Sing prison yesterday. Llko nil others
who hnvo preceded him, ho went to donth
calmly, nnd did not sny n word In tho
dunth ehninbor. Tho only nppcnrnuco of
fright or wonknoss was tho fact Mint ho
closed his oyes when ho entered, nud did
not open them ngnln. Two contnets woro
made, hut nil tho physicians nnil olcctrlo-
Inns chum that tho second coutnet was
moroly precautionary nnd that tho victim
died Instantly. Thero wcro no burns and
no unploasnnt features, nnd every physl'
clan present dcclnred tho execution a suc
cess. Tho body has been claimed by
frloiulfl, uud the enso will go down Into
history as a causo colobro.
Warden Sago's action In procoodlng
with tho electrocution wns tho rosult of a
telegram from tho nttornoy genoral to tho
offect that tho wardon would not bo In tho
wrong If ho carried out tho scntonco In
tho caso of Dr. Buohanan. Tho lndeflnlto
lnnguugo In which tho optnlon was couched
nud tho refusal of the attornoy gonornl to
advlso tlio execution, but only to say that
ho would not advlso Its delay, did not ox-
notly ploaso tho wardon, who had oxpected
thatwhon ho acted It would bo under tho
advlco of tho stnto's legal advisor. But
after consideration nnd consultation nn
ordor was Issued to proccod with tho oxo-
outlon.
Wardon Sngo said: "I am not pleased
with tho opinion of tho nttornoy general,
becauso It Is not mndo flnnl Instruction
for mo to-proceod; but, as It says that
am not justified In dolaylngtho execution
I shall go on with tho affair."
Tho most natliotlo fonturo 01 tno execi
tlon wns thovnln appenlof thocondomned
man's wlfo for executive clomenoy. Sho
wont to Rhlncollll Sunday night, anil
stopped at tho vlllago hotel. Arising
shortly nftcr 5 o'clock sho wns driven to
Ellersllo, wbero sho was admitted to tno
trovernor's mnnslon. Mr. Morton was In
bed. but on being Informed of Mrs. Buclv
annn's presence In tho house ho nroso, and
boforo 6 o clock mot nor in uis norary,
Tho woman sank on her knees boforo tho
Governor nnd pleaded for hor husband
llfo. though her grief almost prevented
her from spoaklng. Governor Morton was
nlnlnlv ovorcomo by tho woman's plead
lncr. nnd tears stood In his eyos as ho lifted
hor to her foot nnd told her that ho could
not crnnthor rcnuost.
"Tho highest courts havo confirmed your
husband's conviction, nnd I havo no right
to lntorfero. It wns my sympathy for you
that led mo to glvo him a roprlove," said
tho covoruor.
Then tho governor asked Mrs. Bu
chnnnn many nucstlons about horself, ox
pressed sympathy for hor nnd told her that
If slio over nocitou, assistance 10 can upuu
him nnd ho would gladly help hor,
After drinking a cup of coffeo which tho
govornor handed hor, Mrs. Buchanan left
Jlllorsllo and took tho 8 o'clock train for
Sing Sing. During tno oxecution iirs,
Buohanan was In tho warden's houso, hav
I lug come thoro after tho witnesses wero
summoned to tho death chamber. Sho
wns cxtremelv ncrvotis.rnnd whon told o:
tho death of her husband broko down and
wept freoly.' Sho was taken enro of by
Mrs. Sago.
Mrs. Buchnnnn Is In destltuto clrcum
stnnces, hor exponsos to Hhlneellff hnvlng
been dofrayed by Wardon Sago.
Tho persistency with which Buchanan
clung to llfo marked his caso to tho end.
Sluco tho doath of tho wlfo whom ho mur
dered on April 23, 1802, In ordor to ro
marry tho wlfo whom ho had previously
divorced, his caso lias boon marked by un
certainties which havo mndo it famous.
Ho at llrst seemed llkoly to escape sus
picion, and wns not arrested until Juno
0, following tho woman's death. His trlnl
was delayed until March 20, 1893, and
during Its early stages his acquittal ap
peared probablo. Whon ho was convicted,
April 20, 1803, a motion for a now trial
was mado, and tho questions presented to
tho court woro such that a doclslon was
not rondered until Aug. 14 following,
whon ho was sontonccd to dlo Oct. 2, 1893.
On Aug. 15, 1893, ho was brought horo,
and has boon hero uninterruptedly slnco,
with the oxoontlon of two days, whon ho
was tnkon away to bo resentenced onco
to Vow York rind onco to Albany. His
caso has boon twlco beforo tho court of ap
peals of tho stato, onco beforo tho United
states supromo court, mm any muuuur ui
delays and unusual legal proceedings havo
marked its courso through tho lowor stnto
nnd fcdornl courts.
Invitations to his oxoontlon woro sont
out four times by Wardon Sago, but In
tho first threo lnstancos, on ono ground or
another, n rosplto was secured and tho In
fliction of tho death ponnlty was post
poned, and Anally after overy moans of

ho 1ms finally completed the biggest con
tract ho has ever undertaken.
"Mr. Dnkln, doesn't your business ox
poso you to many unhealthy conditions?"
" Yes, I nm continually catching cold."
" Does it affect your general health?"
"It has brought on kidney disorders,"
"Ilavo vou been troubled from that
source nuy length of time?"
"I think it stnrtcd during tho war, In
which 1 took nn nctivo part, and overy
cold I catch has nggrnvatod It."
"What wero tho symptoms?"
" Lamo back ami trouble with the kid
ney organism. I havo doctored for years
and used all kinds of remedies I heard of,
without relief. My enso is as follows " :
"Some littlo tlmo ago I was in n very
bad condition, hardly ablo to hobblo
around; I had been in Madison County
looking after a contract there for the State ;
I got very wet, uud, ns usual, was laid tip.
I was simply twisted way around ami
doubled up on ono side; when I attempted
to stand tip it seemed as though I would
tear out ono of my kidneys; wliilo In this
condition I saw Doan's Kidney Pills ad
vertised. Being almost desperate, I waa
willing to try anything for relief. I be
gan using them, ana the result was truly
wonderful. I feel as young ns a boy, nnd
It is tho first tlmo in many years that I
havo been perfectly free from pain In tho
small of my back. All urinary troubles
gone. 1 am pericctiy wen, ana no traces
of my former trouble remain. I gladly
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills."
