N.*w York, Aug. 16—To
strengthen his argument against
capital punishment, the R«v.
Emil A. Meury, pastor of the
flecond Reformed church, Jersey
City, will witness the execu-
tion of | Eld ward Tapeley, a
negro wife murderer, in the
Hudson county jail on Fri-
day. Mr. Meury contends
there is consciousness after the

the platform. He declares that
a man who wa9 hanged in Jersey
City four years ago gave a signal
after the drop fell, showing con-
sciousness, although his neck
was broken.
If Tapeley gives similar signs
after the moment of hanging, Mr
Meurv will appear before the
legislature next winter and ask
for the abolition cf capitol pun-
ishment.
