THE LAST OHANCE.

It was ar- ranged by the Sherif to ieave the jatl at eleven o'clock, but the necessary ari ments delayed it till nearly tweive. Av fifteen minutes past eleven the telegraph messenger entered the jail oilice with a despaich. This Was expected tu be & respite, and created, profound sensation, but, upon bemg opened, it was found to be oily an addiuonal con- iirmation of the dreadful reality.

J. W. STEVENSON. This was the lastof hope, and Kriel’s case was given up forever, THE CROWD BEVORE THE JAM. The crowd, which had begun to assemble about the jall a8 early as nine o'clock, Was Low LoWense, and completely biockaded Jeflerson and sixin ».reets, A large police force was detailed tor the purpose of Kevping the crowd back, Dui It Wus wit cuniculty that they could keep the rusiigg, curious crowd out of the jailyard, Tuere were not less than 5,000 people there wailing for hours vo get a giumpse ol the prisoner.

ON THE WAY TO THE SCAFFOL Afew minutes belore twelve o’clock the police cleared the jail yard and the prisoner was marcued tu the conveyance, & large omulbus, whicl stood backed up to the pavement on Jefferson street in iront of the new jal, Sherif Martin walked on one side of Kriel and Mr. Glass, a particular friend, at Kriel’s request, walked on the other. He was imme- diately followed by his spiritual ministers, then the re- porters, some thirteen in number, reproserting the press of Louisvilie, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, New Albany and several other cities. Tue deputy she- ruts, ten or tweive of tuem, followed. Kriel was placed in an omnibus with the Sherif aud his guard, the reporters and several others. Rev. Me. Perkins sat on Kriel’s right aud Rey. Mr. Stern on nls eft, both whispering occasionally in bis ear, encouraging and advising hia. Kriel gat about midway of tne ommuibus on the lett hand side, with his head bowed and ofven muttering in an undertone. A second omnibus followed beliind containing officers and others. The police formed asohd square around the two vehicles, and in this manner the procession moved dowa Jefferson street to Seventh, out Seventh to Broadway, down Broadway to Fifteenth, aud our Fifteenth vo the place of execution. It was tollowed by an eager, gaping crowd of promiscuous persons, all striving to see the prisoner. Just as the proces- sion got under way the bell tolled for twelve o'clock. ‘tne sound seeined to startte Kriel; he looked up suddenly, but sank back again in a few moments. 18 ONLY REQUEST. Kriel made only one request in regard to hia effects, 80 fur as Known; that was to Messrs. John Shively and David Needy on the way to the scaffold, He asked bnat bis pistol and his hat, which are now in the possession of the Circult Court, be given to his sister. The pistol is the same with which he committed the terribie deed which cost him his ite. AT THE SCAFFOLD. ‘The great procession reached the place of execu- tion about one o'clock, and much difficulty was ex- perienced in making a Way through the dense crowd which had assembled arouna the scaffold. At last, however, an openjng Was made and the two omnt- buses drove up, Te Sheriff, with several deputies, got out and ascending the scaffold commenced pre- paring tor the execution, Kriel in the mean- while remained im the vehicle closely en- gaged in prayer with his spiritual advisers, ‘They encouraged tm to vear the ordeal Atl when he answered, “i'll do the best I can.” The scaffold had been erected in a broad, open common on » slight elevation, s0 that tie prisoner was plainly seen by every one in the vast throng. 1t was bound on the north by the Duich Ditch, and this body of water kept ac least one-half of tne assemblage from crowding on the scaffold. The opposite bauk was densely crowded with- upturned faces. It was surprising to see 60 many women among the spectators. There were some young gir.s—inaidens of sixteen and eighteen—young married women with their children in their arms, women of maturer years, and, in fact, women of all sbades, sizes, ages and descriptions. ‘fhe scaffold was arough platform constructed by the side of a cypress-looking treo, one end butting against it. The beam was about seven feet above the platiorm and about twelve from the ground. At twenty mitiutes past one o’clock the Sheriff amounced that all was ready, when Kriel lefts the omnibus and advanced to Wwe steps of the scaffold. Here the Shertifs offered to assist him in asceading, but he ran up before them, and, reaching the platformn, threw the overcoat irom his shaders, and taking off his hat handed it to Mr, Stern, who held tt. Kriel manifested no tunidi- ty Whatever, and was remarkably complacent under sue circumstances. He stood up firmly and mauful- jy and listened to the reading of the deati warrant, not unconcerned, but without any exhibition of fear or terror. On the scatfoid were Captain J. M. Mar- lin, High Sherif; Kev. '. Verkinus, Rev. Mr. Stern, Drs. T. J. Griffiths and H. 'T. Pope, and Messrs. W. A. Marun, Ed. Cooke, 0. W. Field, Jr., and Thomas M. Fletcher, Deputy Sheriffs, After the reading of the death warrant by Captain W. A. Martin the pri- soner turaed to Kev. Mr. Perkins, who delivered a feelmg and eloquent prayer. As he raised bis hand the Immense mass of people present uncover listened to che prayer leverentially and rex: ‘That moment was a solemn one indeed, and bi tears to the eyes of thousands in the vast throng there, who theu, for the first time, truly realized tae verrible posttion of the doomed man. It was the wish of Kriel, so expressed to Sheriff Martin, that the execution be Res througk as soon as possibie after they arrived at the scaffold. So, when ‘Uhe prayer of Mr. Perkins was finished, Vaptam Mar- tin asked Kriel if he would have Rev. Mr. Stern, 118 other minister, say something. He answered “Yes; but don’t be long.” Mr. Stern then offered a short prayer. The ministers then shook hands with lim and descended the scaifold, Mr. Perkins returned to the omnibus, and, writing out the request of Kriel in regard to his pistol and hat, reascended the scaf- fold and showed it to him. He read it and expressed himseif satisfied. ON THE TRAPDOOR. Kriel then stepped to the middle of the trapdoor, lack go over asked for Captain Marun, if nis body tad been Beer tar ey i # Captain that ne to meet hun tu heaven, He was asked if hy had anything pay when he replied, “No, tt woutd o} create talk.” ‘The Sneruf uch for he had known Kriel for a long time ana they had been intimate friends. ‘The cap was then put over nis head and the rope adjusted, plain Martin asked one of his depatios i! the knot was to the back of theear, when Kriel, thinking that the question Was addressed to him, answered, “Yes, 1’ juss right, ( think.” ‘The Shertif then held the diack of the rope up, so that the Knot would not slip from ita Place, and saying, “Al's ready; God have mercy on your soul, Billy.” gave the sign. ‘The trapdoor was sprung, amd Billy Kriel Was launched toto eternity, The trap fell at exactiy thirty-four munules past one O'clock. HOW HE DIED. ‘The fail was about two feet, and so accurately was the rope adjusted that the neck was broken 1n- stantly. He struggied very jittle, if any, and, wibh the exception of the unconscious contractions of the muscles, Dung like # lifeless mass of matter in the air, His usis clutched aud the breast heaved @ few imoments after the drop was sprung, but it is be- lieved Liat he Was not conscious of pain a moment alter the fall, In six minutes the physicians felt his pulse and found i to be very feeble.
