Meanwhile Mr. Bolton had token his leave of Engel, and was conducted lo the ceil upon the upper tier occupied by Schwab, who wei

corned him cordially. At fifteen minutes of nine o’clock letters Parsons received oneA from Hew York.% There was one ford! Spies from New York,® one directed toll 11 Brothers Lingg, Spies and Parsons,

som radon." There Mirkntl .V*i-aA. were others to Citizen Engel. One received from Mattoon, III., was directed to “Condemned Anarchists,*’ and was given to Bpies. With eager bands the men tore open the envelopes and read the communications enclosed. There was a momentary cloud upon Spies’ face as ho ttrew one of the letters he had Teceived upon the table. He sat another moment in deep thought, and then asked the death watclk to send for the sheriff. Mr. Matson i-esponded with alacrity, and aftei a brief whispered conversation, the ex-editor handed over the two letters and the sheriff placed them in an inner pocket- of his coat. Spies also expressed a desire for a draught of Rhine wine, and a messenger was dispatched across the street with instructions to procure a quart of the best quality. Returning to his table Spies again commenced to write, while Parsons, Engel and Fischer sat with a gloomy expression looking out into the corrids r. Word was brought in that Mrs . Parsons, Mrs. Holmes and two children. Mrs. Engle, Mary Engle and Edna Mueller, had come to the Illinois street guard! and were refused admittance. They then irent to the Clark street cordon of police,bat not having passes were not permitted to pa ss. Word also came that they indulged in some vehement, yet tearful, talk about the execution'of innocent men.

lkt Court of Uu Jail, When Sheriff Matson carie out, he stated that all the condemned had writ* tea letters to the members of their families and other friends, which had been intros ted to him tor personal delivery. At ten o'clock Deputy Sheriff Gleason hurriedly entered the office with a letter which he passed to Spies. The superscription was in a feminine hand. - He read it without a movement of his facial muscles. AH this time none tmt representatives of the press had been admitted to the jail office. The tickets of admission notified the holders to present themselves at the Illinois street entrance at ten o'clock, but in order that the reporters— and there were near a hundred of them—should not be crowded, it was decided to keep the holders of the general tickets in the jail-yaid until the moment for the execution arrived. The arrangement was an admirable one foe the newspaper men, who at iirevious executions in this building have been competed to perform their daties under great; difficulties. It was not relished, however, by the other visitors, who stood and shivered in the cold nirnnd stamped thenfeet to keep the Mood in circulation. Fischer wae talking with hie deathwatch. He said last night ho dreamed oft Germany and his happy childbood’thome. Just then a toad noise was heard. It wan a deputy testing the scaffold with sandbags. Engel came to the door of his cell. He knew what the sound meant, and winked a* his death-watch. Rev.

ia the face of a man of iron. A murmur of admiration for his unflinching nerve goes through the spectators. Engel tarns aroottd and says something inaudible to the deputy. It is evidently of a jocular character, for the condemned man laughs heartily. Fischer looks at hP'a a m moot, and then he, too, pats in a remark. Spies and Parsons, at either end of the sssffold, maintain a stolid and dignified demeanor but there is a took of unutterable woe upon the face of the ex-editor which pierces the hearts of those surrounding ilie scaffold. The shrouds had already been adjusted before the men left their colls. Nothing remains but to encircle each neck with the noose andtto cover each bead with the cap. Jailer Foil approaches Spies. A qnick movement—so * quick that it can hardly be noticed—and the rope is around fa is neck and being drawn taunt. There fat not a movement of a muscle. —tie same stolid look, the same woti-begone look

Omri fThtn t\J Erection 2Vs* Plan, from the eyes. Foil morel a step and in a moment the throat of Fischer was encircled. He moved his head op and down as if It hurt him. Engel does not move as the operation is being performed. Parsons rivets hts gaze on the ground and his features are contracted. AH four are evidently determined to die game. A deputy approaches Spies with the cap in his hands. The condemned man says something in nn undertone. He is evidently remonstrating. The deputy wavers for a moment. Spies speaks still more earnestly. The deputy looks at the sheriff; the latter closes his eyes. It is enough; the cap is quickly drawn over the face of the Anarchist leader. It has been seen for the last time in life. The head ol Engel is next covered, then Fischer and Parsons last. Ficher’s head moves up and down in the direction of the sheriff, who with his bands upon the iron ru ling of the gallery, is ready to give the signal. It is at though the Anarchist, as well as he can, in bis rousliu-coverod head, it beckoning the sheriff to approach him. That official, however, does not -espoud. There is a moment of death-like stillness Then clear and distinct cocoes tin voice of Spies. His form straightens ip, the mnslin seems to move in harmony with his lips. “Our silence is more powerful than speech.’* That is all, but llm is a ring to it that echoes far sway down the corridor. Silence again for a second. Then in a round fqU voice a shout “Hurrah for Anarchy!" comes from Engel. Another pease, broken this time by the voice of F.scher: “This is the happiest moment of su;f life." He has had his say. Then the clear, wellmodulated voice of Parsons break* the oppressive stillnens. There is not that enthusiastic ring in it which marked the utterances of the other*. It is the vciee of a judge delivering a elec tion, A scarcely definable pause between each word: .“Shall I be allowed to speak, Oh, men and women of dear America!” The sheriff shifts his position a little, he is several feet away from the speaker, bat the speaker mast hare seen the movement through Che folds of the cap. There is a rising iinllection in his voice, not so much of pleading as of demand. “L#t me apeak. Sheriff Matson!” is what he says. “Let the voice of the people be heard"—down went the trap; the last words of Parsons had died upon his lips. Four bodies swung in empty air, and the Haymarkot massacre was avenged. The drop fell at 11From the first step of Spies upon the scaffold until the catting of the rope, precisely sis minutes and three seconds had elapsed. For a moment after the drop had fallen, not n soul stilted- A low murmur like a pentup sigh of relief went through the corridor. Then, as if moved by one common impulse, every man rose to his feet and every eye was rivifced upon the body of Spies. The arch-anarchist was dying hard. His legs and arms moved convulsively, with extraordinary rapidity. It was as though he were alive and conscious, and straggling to free himself from the cords that bound him. His whole frame was agitated by a quivering tremor. Jjofr groans of herror came from many lips, and the expression “He’s dying bard” was heard on all sides. This continued for over a minute —an hour il seemed—and! then she struggles grew fainter, and fainter, until they finally ceased.
