Bitterly Laments That He Could Not Number an Even Dozen Among His Victims. SAN QUENTIN, Cav., June 8.—In the execution of Garcia, the Colton murderer, yesterday California was rid of one of the most cold-blooded and brgtal criminals that ever faced a hangman’s noose. By his own confession Garcia had murdered ten men, and his dying lament was that his life was cut off before he could make the number an even dozen. Garcia spent the interval between his breakfast and his death yesterday in writing a farewell letter to Captain Edear. It is written in Spanish and tells an interesting story in an illiterate, ram- bling way. He frankly confesses tofhaving killed ten men and speaks of his past hope to have made the number an even dozen “if God had permitted.” The secret of Garcia’s exemplary con- duct in prison is explained by the fact that he hoped that some of the witnesses against him would visit the prison. Then, according to the sinister expression con- tained in the letter, he hoped to be able to see them “‘for just a minute.”” The letter speaks also of the jury which convicted him and uses many expressions which can- not appear in print. The letter was placed in a sealed en- velope, bearing the inscription in Spanish, “I shall die very happy. Learn the rea- son and then you will know.” An ex- purgated translation of the letter itself is as follows: Farewell. JUNE 7, 1895, Testament of my sorrow, but it is of very little moment to me, because he Who owes ten and more and pays one remains owing nine, and I have hoped to make up the dozen if God had given me license. AndIam always ready to give my life in payment for the past ten. If, asI have said, the debt is owing, and especially as I spoke of the last one, which was the only cause, it does not hurt me to pay when the thing is just. Iblame only my bad luck for this punish- ment, which was ordered by God, and next to God by the injustice of the party interested. For having kept company with cuckolds and for having wanted to remove them from the earth Ibave injured myself. This is the pure truth. And because they were boasters without man- hood, who had great fear of m2, they in- jured me. They may thank their God who did not give me &n opportunity to carry out my intentions. As for that class of men I would have more pity in killing a dog or a coyote than for one of that kind. After they have originated the ‘trime they give away him who proves to have been their friend. What a pity that the earth breeds such vermin! Where are those false promises they made me? They stopped short only of absolute abasement to get me into the thing. You may congratulate yourself (Captain Ed- gar) that you did not receive a worse chicken. Ibehaved myself well in the jail while I had hope of getting to see one of the blackguards ‘who accused me if only to speak one minute with him. Thishas been denied me, but never- theless I do not lose all hopes of completing the dozen and then receiving the just punish- ment of the gods of this world. As for the jury, I shall die deeply grateful for their — — way of judging a criminal and for the highly excellent trial they gave me. They gave me, under pretense of justice, a dozen crazy old men, of whom more than four do not know enough to come in when it rains. For that reason they were satisfied with the testimony of one $250 witness. This I know from a certain person. Iam grateful to him, because he always told me the truth concern- ing what was to happen to me. E. E.GARCIA. The statements in the preceding cor- roborate the testimony of witnesses at Garcia’s trial that he often boasted of having killed several men. The cause of the long delay between the death of Azoff and that of Collins proves to have been that Collins had completely broken down. The sounds of the preced- ing executions had shattered his nerves and dissipated his courage, and a pitiful scene ensued. At length, however, he was braced up by stimulants and the exhorta- tions of the priests sufficient to enable him to face his doom, and in the death cham- ber he showed no signs of collapse.

He Is Found in a Closed Room, With All the Gas Jets Turned On. HIS WIFE UNDER SUSPICION. She Is Brought Back to the City in the Charge of Detec~ tives. LOS ANGELES, Cav.,, June 8.—E. H. Spencer, one of the oldest and best-known residents of this city, was found dead in a little room off the kitchen of his resi- dence, 845 South Broadway, shortly after noon to-day. The strong odor of escaping gas told the story of how death was caused, but there was nothing about to tell by whose hand two burners of a gas stove were turned on full blast, or by whose hand the plug had been pulled out of a gas-burner in the kitchen, Spencer had been sleeping in a small room adjoining the kitchen, on a large bed-lounge. His wife occupied a room in the front part of the house. About 12 o’clock the attention of Mrs. J. A. Cronk- hite, who ocrupies a portion of the Spencer residence, was directed to the old man’s room by the strong odor of escaping gas. Receiving no reply to repeated knocks the door was forced open, and Spencer was found lying dead on the lounge. He was attired in his night clothes. It was found that the kitchen door lead- ing into the dining-room was closed, and the kitchen window and the window in the old gentleman’s room as well. The two windows are always kept half-way down. The two burners of a gas stove had been turned on and a plug removed from a burner of the chandelier. The Coroner was notified, and after look- ing into the affair was convinced that there was work for the Police Department, and detectives were entailed on the case. The circumstances show conclusively that the death of Spencer was not the re- His position on the couch on which he slept indicates that he was awakened by the escaping gas, and had attempted to arise. The covers of the bed were thrown back, as though he had struggled to get up, but was too weak to do so. The ekamination made by the Coroner and detectives gave rise to suspicions, and the result was the officers went imme- diately in search of Mrs. Spencer and brought her back to the city. One peculiar circumstance in connection with the affair is the finding of a letter in the old man’s room. It issaid to be in Mrs. Spencer’s handwriting, and addressed to Mr. Witmer, who acted as her banker. The letter states that certain) money is expected soon from the estate of the late Mr. Wilson, who is supposed to have been Mrs. Spencer’s first husband, and asks Witmer to look out for her interests. The Coroner will hold an inquest on Monday. ENTER INTO A NOVEL WAaGER. A ZLos Angeles Young Couple to Earm Their Way Around the Globe. LOS ANGELES, CarL., June 8.—As the result of a wager between W.
