HIS CELL. How Kring Has Spent Eight Years In Jail Mis Critical Condi-ion—How the mayer of Dora Broemser Passe~ His Time. denied the petition of Charles F. Kring asking his transfer from the Jail to the City Hospital. The pe- titioner is still confined to his cell. Eight years ago, un the night of January 4- ’73, Kring shot Dora Broemser, and a few davs later he was conuniited to jail to await trial. He was then a young man not yet thirty years of age. His cheeks bad a rugged, healthy color, with a warm He was not of a robust but of red tinge. temperament even was healthy and strong. the prisoners who saw his entry to their then, None midst mm ’75 are still in jail. all hav- ing“Since becn sent to the Peniten- tiary, discharged, or having made their exit through the hospita! build- ing to the gallows. During that time he has seen these numerous changes. At each execution he withdrew to the dark portion of his cell and witnessed the sad _ proces- sion trom adjoining cells to the gal- jows andheard the sickening jerks and the surpressed exclamations ef the crowds attending the executions. Arising early and retiring iate, Kring’s lite has been a monotonous one and his sensations only varied by his own dangerous predicaments. His only work has been assisting the lawyers in his case and writing a history of the killing of Dora Broem- ser. His only amusement has been his pype and books. Since his re- cent attack of sickwess he has been oblidged to furegoboth these, and especially the former, He has but tew associates in jail, holding aloof from the common criminals commit- ted to that institution, and repulsing curious visitors by retiring to his cell from their discomforting gaze. | All the priso.ers who have made his acquaintance have a certain sort of admiration for him and court hs jcompany. The only visitors to his cell are Ed. Rickard, Oby E. Owens and Johny Parker. Krung is now located in cell No. 40 on the ground bi? .foer of Murderers’ Row, on the west side of the Jail. Nine months go Kring was committed to this ell and preparations for his death watch made. The deputy sheriffs were in attendance in pairs accom- panying- every movement. His heeny black suit was retired and he ppeared upon the floor in a new black worsted suit given him by Jail- pr Ryan, and in which he expected o make his final appearance the following day on the scaffold, which had been washed, oiled and put in adiness tor its ghastly work. That vening the stay granted by Judge Sherwood was given, and since then he has retained possesion of the death-watch cell. It furnished with the ordinary outfit. On the south side the couch, supported by wons from the floor, is located. At the head of this his scanty wardrobe neatly folded. On the floor, beside it on the north side, is a small table on which are his pen, ink, pa- per and candle and a few newspa- pers which he distributes among the other prisoners. When a reporter saw him this morning he was sitting an the chair beside the is and with his coat wrapped about his shoulders and a blanket spread oyer his lap and feet. When asked how he felt hereplied: ‘-Oh, Iam feeling about the same as yesterday.
