Ossining, N. Y., Novfl 20.—Three
murderers were put to death in Sing
Sing prison today Just as'dawn began
to brighten the skies above Westches
ter hills.
They were Pietro Falletto, of Port
Chester; Prank Schermerhom. Mill-
brook, near Poughkeepsie, and Bert
L. Brown, of Rye. They went to the
chair in that order. The executions
began at 5:28 o’clock and lasted only
23 miuutes.
It was the first triple electrocution
at Sing Sini: since the electric current
superceded the gallows in New York
state. Twenty years ago four murder
ers paid the death penalty at one time
by hanging.
All three executions proceeded with
out incident or delay.
Of the crimes expiated today,
Schermerthoms attracted the most
notice. On the night of January 13,
1910, Sarah Brymer, a nurse employ
ed by Barnes Compton at Milbrook,
was found dead in the Compton home
under circumstances which indicated
that the had been criminally assault
ed and strangled. Schmerhorn, the
family coachman, 22 years old, and
married, >^as arrested on suspicion
and aubae-iuently convicted on cir
cumstantial evidence. On the day &t-
ter the cr5me officers searching the
boachman s house found him lying
under a bed with his throat cut, but
he soon if;overed. A quantity of 8il
ven^'are stolen from the Compton
house was found in a chimney tiu»
in the coachman’s house. Schermer
horn tried to throw suspicion't)n a
Japanese servant but he finally ad
mitted thee rime.
Bert L. Brown, who is a negro
killed William Brown, his half broth
er, in the village of Rye, May 21,
1910.
Pietro Falletto cut Louis Levines
throat in Levines' store in Port
Chester, Augut 13, 1909. The victim
waa 89 years of age and weighed
scarcely ICNtt pounds while Falletto
was but 33 years old and weighed
180. The trial developed that Falletto
was in need of monejr and ^
Levines’ store for the pufp6iiil6 of rolS
bery.

Chicago, III., Nov. 20.—Judge Geo. A.
Carpenter, of the pnited States district
court, today postponed until Wednes
day morning the trial of J. Ogden Ar
mour and nine other packers, charged
with violating the crinainal provisions
of the Sherman anti-trust act. The
postponement was in cognizance of the
action of Judge Kohlsaat, of the United
States circuit court, who, after quash
ing the writs of habeas corpu& prev
iously granted the packers, withheld
the entry of the.o?der until Wednes
day.
J. Ogden Armour,'the only defendant
not directly concerned in the habeas
corpus proceedings, might have been
placed on trial, but Judge Carpenter
announced that he was not disposed
to try his case*3eparately.
, Counsel for the packers refused to
intimate that wheir next movewould
be.
This means that no stay of the trial
can now be procured from the su
preme court, as a body at least until
December 4th. It does not, however,
preclude the packers from applying to
Associate Justice Day, now at Canton,
Ohio, for an appeal from the order of
the United States circuit court at Chi
cago, which announced tJiat It would
not release the packers from custody
on “heabeas corpus” proceedings.

El Paso, Texas, Nov. 20.—What
was supposed at'first to have be^n an
attack on Juarez by’Re'yistas proved
upon Investigation to be the celelwa-
tlon of the Maderistas of ^ the anni
versary of the beginning of the >la-
dero revolution. The principal feature
of the demonstration was the dis
charge of firearms whlcb. gave rise
to the report that followers of Gen
Reyes were attacking Juarez.
The firing of the celebrants lasted
an hour or more. ■
El Pasoans, were aroused and flock
ed to the river bank to witness what
they felt sure was a battle.
This impression was deepened by
knowledge that the Juarez garrison
had been on the alert for sudden, devel
opments in connection with reports of
Povolutlonary activity, fn/which the
name of General Reyes, now under ar-
rest, has been particularly Jmnected
The Mexican officials doubled precau

fearing that the act might precipitate
