3 MEW TO CHAIRINTERRDR 'talian, in Hysteria. Exonerates Five Others Condemned for Same Crime. OSSINING, N. V., July B.—Three murderers were electrocuted in rapid B uccession in Sing- Sing prison early today The three men were the most jjvferical ever executed here, and each „ e nt moaning or praying to his death. The men electrocuted were: Santo Zanzara. Italian, Implicated In the murder of Mrs. Mary Hall at Cro ton Lake. November 9, 1911. Giuseppe Cereili. Italian, who killed a fellow workman at the Millville res ervoir in Yonkers. George Williams, negro, who killed Charles Conklin, station agent at Crd ton Lake, tn April, 1911. The same voltage was used for each, but three contacts were required to kill Zanzara and Williams. Only two were necessary for Cereili. Zanzara showed greater terror of the electric chair than any man previously executed at Sing Sing. He moaned and sobbed in hysteria, but before he was strapped in th» chair he knelt In prayer. Before his execution. Zanzara wrote a statement to Warden Kennedy, tn which he declared he alone was guilty of the murder of Mrs. Hall. There are five other men awaiting execution for thl« crime—Vincenzo Zena, Angelo Giusti Eilcho DeMarco, Lorenzo Cali and Salvator DeMarco. The statement made by Zanzara, that all the others were innocent, was the fifth that he had made. No two were alike, and the other Italians probably will he unable to obtain a new trial. Zanzara was in the electric chair nine minutes and fourteen seconds be fore the 1.900 volts killed him. Cereili prayed in a loud voice before he was strapped in. He was in the hair for five minutes. Williams was In the chair eight minutes, w Examine Every Piece hf laundry that comes from our shop If there's anything wrong with a single article, we will do it over without charge, But we want you to particular h examine the quality of our work for wearability; we guar antee that by our extra careful process your clothes will give you longer service than they have heen giving' heretofore.

J. Connor, commissioner of agriculture, be a candidate .to succeed himself? That is a pertinent question politi cians in Georgia are asking themselves nowadays, and thereby hangs one of the most interesting arid absorbing tales current in political circles. • If the commissioner dohs announce as a candidate to succeed himself, he must do so, so the inside story goes, in direct violation of a promise made to the governor when that gentleman ap pointed Commissioner Connor in suc cession to Thomas G Hudson, resigned, unless he can get the governor to re lease him from said promise. When Commissioner Hudson re signed there office he vacated, James D. Price and J. J. Brown. The governor Was em barrassed in the matter of appoint ment -then, for both candidates had claims on his consideration, and he was loathe to give the plum to either, and thus express a preference between them. Connor Made Promise? Finally the governor decided to ap point some one who would say he would not be a candidate to succeed himself, and thereby leave Brown and Price even at the sjtart of the big race, so far as the governor wa-s concerned In those circumstance*, the matter of appointment was put squarely up to Mr. Connor, who, after a day’s hesita tion. agreed to the terms of temporary' occupancy. Both Price and Brown stated frankly that they would be can didates for the long term, and the gov ernor passed them from his mind, therefore, as probsfble appointees. Aft er his appointment to the office of com • mlssioner of agriculture Mr. Connor appointed J J Brown his assistant, but that was of the governor’s affair. Now, it is said, Commissioner Con nor has become, greatly enamored of the office he holds and would like to have a try for it before the people. It is said Mr. Con'nor would an nounce at once but for the promise he made the governor. Moreover, it is said that he has sounded the governor on the matter of a release from that promise, but has met cold response. The governor has had nothing to say about the matter, and probably will have nothing to say. unless, in his ma ture judgment, it becomes necessary, for him to make clear certain feature’s of the situation.
