New York, Nov. 17.—The experi¬
ments of the Medico-Legal society in per¬
fecting a death helmet for the execution
of criminals by electricity is meeting
with great, discussion.
The law requires that after January 1st
criminal executions shall take place by
electricity, except in the cases of those
persons whose crimes were committed
prior to that date. The apparatus de¬
scribed in the report of last night will.in
all probability, he adopted for use after
January 1st in criminal executions
throughout the state.
The movement to do away with the
horrors of hanging was started a v ear
and a half ago. Last winter a I ill was
presented to the legislature and passed,
calling for the appointment ol a com¬
mission to consider the question of capi¬
tal punishment and suggest a painless
substitute for hanging. The commission,
appointed by Gov. Hill, consisted of
three men, whose views were well
known to the public : Elbridge T. Ger¬
ry, Matthew Halt* and Alfred P. South-
wick. They conducted a series of ex¬
periments, made chiefly by electrical ex¬
perts upon dogs, anti reported in favor
of electricity.
They presented a bill, which was
promptly passed by the assembly, but
stuck in the hands of the senate judicia¬
ry section, committee. which It directed finally passed, the minus

poses of this act to Ik: constructed and
placed this in each together of tlie state prisons of

appliances for the execution of convict¬
ed criminals."
The friends of the bill claimed after
its passage that the judiciary committee
meant to kill it. but made a mistake in
striking clause mffiitioning out that clause instead of the
electricity as the
agent. In the form in which tin* law

that the suggestion of the Medico-I-egal

On this committee were Dr. 1 rank Pe¬
