8 M'CONNELL WANGED. Execution at Hamilton, Ont., for Murder. HUMAN BUTCHERY AVENGED Story of a Horrible Crime and Its Just Retribution. Hamittos, Ont, March 14, 1876, Michael McConnell to-day suffered the extreme pon- elty of the law for the murder of Nelson Mills, the particulars of which have already beon given in the | Hasatp. The convict went to sleep last night about ten o'clock and slept with apparent com/ort until five this morning, when he arose and engaged in religious exercises with the attendant clergyman. About twenty minutes belore the execution, which took place at eight o’clock in the jail yard, he hada conversation with the reporters and others, with whom he talked quite cheerfully, He did nut exp covtri- tion for his crime, but said he thought if his victim had been more moderate with the rent two lives ‘would have beon saved. TUR EXECOTION. At precisely eight o'clock, his hands having been pinioned, im company with the Sheriff and his officers he walked to the soaffold, which is a considerable dis- tance from his cell. He walked along the hall out into | the yard and up the steps of tho scaffold without an Bpparent tremor and without a change in his face, After shaking hands with the Sherif, reporters and officers of the jail, and kissing the Rev. Mr. Smith, tho doomed man addressed a few words to those present, @gain appearing to lay the whole blame on tho want of moderation shown by Mr. Mills, and saying that he was innocent of any intention to murder him. Ho then knelt, his legs were Pinioned and the rope adjusted. The black cap was drawn over nis eyes. At this he moaned a little aud Kept repeating, “Oh! oh! poor McConnell.” He then ‘Bitered a short and carnest prayer, during which his voice faltered a little. \be Lord’s prayer the bolt was drawn and the unfor- jupate dropped through the trap door, a distance of ten feet, Tho execution was well managed, as hardly a tremor was visibio in McConnell’s body after he fell, Death appeared to have been instantaneous. THX BUTCHERING OF sULLS. The crime for which McConnell hung was the mur- det of James Nelson Mills, his landlord, on the 5th of January, in this city. Trouble arose between them on account of McConnell allowing his rent to fall in ar- rears because Mills refused to make certain improve- ments which he had promised. On the 4th of January Mill,’ agent made ademand for the rert and on the following day he haa MeConnell’s eflects seized on a Jandlerd’s warrant, McConnell, who was a butcher, Was at market at the time, and Mrs, McConnell called im and informed him of what had taken place. information seemed to have aroused the terrible temper tor — which tho Was notorious among his fellow butchers, he immediately selected one of his knives and arpened it, From the market he walked siraight to Nelson Milis’ house, his wife accompanying him. ‘a8 pot in, but MeConnell met him just as ho sleeve and attacked him furiously, inflicting wound after wound upon his body. The woman sereamed “Murder,”’ but no aseistance came tn re- sponse, and alter falling down once or twice the wounded man managed to craw! into his house, as- sisted by his wile. He died of his wounds after suffer. ing for iour days, and before death made a statement, which was used as evidence against McConnoil in tho trial, which commenced on January 31 and lasted two M'CONNELI’S TRIAL. The trial of McConuell was begun on the Slst of January, Mr. Justice Moss presidiug. The appearance 1 the prisoner and the circumstances of his trial were Biyen as follows in the Globe: Tho peculiar bloodthirsty character of the assault led Unconsciousiy to tho impression that the Prisoner must be a powerful, daring and dan gerous louking man, who would have been a giadi- or tn old Roman days, and who even now, with y¥e8 upon his wrist,” would fil the observer with mpathetic torrors, The disillusion was completo, almost humilating. The prisoner is about five feet four inches in height, of rather slight build, and tn pearance put together in a fashion that gives no notion whatever of the physical strength that would mako a man dangerous, He has lorgo tvet, and a miserable shambling gait, and stands and moves with an air He has an ordinary looking ta sharp nose, ¢ set and small, winking eyes wears ta thin, compressed lips; an average el head, the forenead narrow and slightly protuber- with sigts of mental activity, He looks, as ob- rt very reverse of the typical murderer; wear- Ing an’ Anxious expression, beneath which, however, there is discoverable a species of reserved force that one would be very unlikely to guard against, as its ox- ercise would ne be looked for, but which being called into play would use any weapons in its reach. Mr. J, 8. Sinctait, of Goderich, a ted by Mr. B. B. Osier, County Crown Attorney’ for Wentworth, conducted the case for tho Crown, Mr. John Crerar, Hamilton, ap- peared for the prisoner. The evidence for the Crown ‘Was Ol the must direct character, being chielly that ef eve witnesses of the bloody deed.

At conclusion of this evidence the Court ad- Joarned until the following day. The prisoner main- tained an attitude of constant attention, like a man lis- some strange narration, and little or none demeanor from any one in the audience, Portion of the evidence most revolting in éiaile.

He concluded as toll —Lam a member of nosociety; 1do not be lie sociotics and I believe what we need ii society to protect society.

They swear to on alibi for tho prisoner, and his counsel says that the object of presenting the depo- sitions of John Henry and his family is to show, be- yond any question, that George Henry, who testified on the trial to having seen the prisoner on Sunday morning, April 19, 1874, between half-past elcven and twelve o'clock, aud waiked with him from Murphy's | residence in Congress street around to the residence of | Joun Henry, told the truth, This being #0, we havo | the prisoner in Jersey City, thirty-two miles from the | scene of the murder, with no means of locomotion by railroad to reach the point of residence of deceased, | The prosecution made uo claim that Murphy reached !

Comptroller Grecn culled up the resolution, which ed, authorizing the issue of New Court House the amount of $5,000 tor the purpose of pi ing expenses in forming estimates and plans for the completion of this structure. The Comptroller re- marked that if an additional story or two were put on the building, with an elevator, it might save a con- siderable aulount of reuts to the city, which had now to be paid fur the use of outside offices. Mr. 8. D, Moultow appeared before the Board to ad- Yooate the erection of a bridge across the Harlem | River at 138th street. He svoke of the great advan- that vicinity irom the building of this bridge. Comptroller Green considers that the bridge could | not be erected at all under the present law. The Brook- | lyn Bridge could not have been completed without | thority of Congress All the low bridges now con- structed over the Harlem River would probably have to be removed if the lews now pending betore Con- ry # for the improvement of this section were passed. r, Green also thought the State statutes authorizing this work regulated it as to priority in connection with the placing of other bridges over the river. The bridge at 138th street, according to his view of this | branch of the laws, should be the last comp'cted. He was also opposed (o raising the necessary /unds by issue of vonds, 45 he thought the honey would nut be judi- ciously spent by the Park Department as at present organized. No definite’action was taken on the subject and the Board adjourned to Tuesday next.

Mf One of those periodical typhoons whi¢n spring out ot ‘a clear sky, and blow fast and furious while they last and subside almost as quickly a8 they arise, burst over the stock market to-day. Business had hardly com- menced when the air was filled with rumors that an important institution was in trouble, and though ‘ne ame was mentioned an uneasy feeling was borh and quickly grew apace. The market, always sharp to take alarm, showed decided symptoms of weakness, and when the fact came out about noou that the Na tional Bank of tho State of New York bad been re ported undeserving of credit by the government Bank Examiner, and had been thrown out of the Cloaring House, there occurred a pressure to sell that one time threatened a panic. For the thousandth timo tne mach vituperated beart turned out the bulls’ best friends. Villfled as the enemy to progress and the destroyer of property, the scourge of widows and orphans aud general destruc tionist, Bruin, even if he does succeed in picking up a modicum of ha’pence, gets a {ull measure of kicks as well. But when the time of trial comes and Bovis, almost frightened out of his sloek coat, rushes into the market, chewing the quid of what was sweet, but which under the influence of panic turns out to be but “bitter fans cies,”’he finds his readiest and most reliable customer im the form of the much abused bear, And so it happone to-day. The craze to sell out which always seizes speculators for the long account, onthe development ofan unexpected financial disaster, set in with fall force when the bunk failure became Known, and would ‘andoubtedly have produced disastrous results had not Gould and th» Twenty-third street party come tothe rescte and by heavy purchases to cover shorts checked the decline, and even materially turned the market upon the upward tack. Of course the above parties will get no credit for their action, nor, In fact, do they deserve any, for they simply seized upon an unex: pected incident to better themselves. The result re mains the samo, nevertheless, that a foolish slaughter ing of values was arrested and a demoralized market turned into a strong one, Moreover, it is not at all certain that Gould has noe been a buyer of long stocks, and there are indications which lead to this theory, but whether it is his inten- tion, under this unexpected turn In events, to organize afresh bull campaign or whether his idea fs to smash things generally by an avalanche of cash stock it will take a day or two to develop. ‘The serious aspect of this bank failure Nos not so much in the occurrence itself as that it shows that the old wleer of commercial rottenness has not yet been probed to the bottom. The financial Lazarus is still in our midst, and now and again some frolicsome breeze blows aside rags and tatters and exhibits his sores, The sight is not an attractive one, and capital is a being of fine perceptions, and taking offence easily getsquickly out of the way. Such was the case to- day when money, which for weeks has been a drug in the financial pharmacopoia at 3 and 4 per cent per an- num, rose suddenty to 1-32 and interest an‘ fore brief period to 1 16. ‘There was no possible reason for this advance save the tim‘dity which the bank scare created, which re- sulted in a disturbance of loans and a calling in of sums held under hypothecation of stocks. The Importers and Traders’ Bank is reported as being conspicuously active in this line of business to- day, and in this respect it has only followed out the course of city banks generally for many years past, of being the first to precipitate a panic and tho last te avert it. Itmust be conceded, however, that appear. ‘ances point to the fact that Gould and other large oper- ators on the short side gave an additional twist to the money market by sending in brokers to bid up the rate, with the hopes of breaking the share list to a purchasable poiut—an effort which met with only partial success, A reference to the column of quotations will show the fluctuations of the day, which will be sufficient for the evil thereof, What the morrow is going to bring forth is doubtful enough, and so brokers thought as they wonded thoir way homoward. The circumstances of the bank failure briefly told are as follows:—On Saturday Mr, Meigs, the Bank Examiner, reported to the Clearing House that the affairs of the bank were in an unsatisfactory condi- tion, To-day Mr. Duer, the President, and Mr. Pat- rick, the Vice President, appeared before the Confer. ence Committee, and after a hearing it was decided te suspend the institution from the privileges of the Clearing House, Tne capital of the bank was $2,000,000, Dut an examination indicates large overdrafts, which impair the capital to the extent of about one-half, Among these are said to be drafts of the Vice Presi. dent amounting to $200,000, of Isaac H. Reed for $200,000, of a southwestern commission house for $250,000, and an acceptance of Duncan, Sherman & Co. to the amount of $70,000. In addition to this it is al- Jeged that time loans have been made to the amount of $425,000, secured by Smith & Girvan by malt and hops, which are said to be of but half the value, The last sale of the stock of the Bank of the State of New York was at 106 on the Sth inst, At the first Board thie morning, before the suspension was known, the quota- tion was 106}; asked.
