Ilallen beck, at Greendnle, Columbia county on Christmas eve, 1001. The unique features of the case arc that three brothers, all under thirty and one barely twenty-one. stand togetliei in the peril of the electric chair, that live jurors, representing eleven of the jury which convicted the Van Worm ers, appeared in opposition to the ap peal and that a Christian minister ar gued for the infliction of the death pen alty. Further, a petition signed by !!(>:! residents of the vicinity of the crime urged that tlio governor show no clem ency. Former Judge .T. Ilyder Cady of Hiul son. win) was originally detailed to de fend the hoys, argued for the appeal, pleading, among other things, the lack of childhood care due to their mother's early death. District Attorney Chase of Columbia county opposed the application, as also did Ucv. C. E. Corwin of Greendnle. The latter cited many tales of the al leged misdoings of the Van Wormers. < l/.mi'iiMi- ll.l.>11 uuiil 11. • vviiiilil rmulm a decision by Monday. Electric Weiliiiiiw; CiiIIm Out Police. NEW YORK.
