Gagoff went to his death with
the same stoical indifference that
has characterified his • conduct
since the awful crime and not a
tremor passed over him through
out the whole dreadful ceremony
which sent him plunging into
t >nity. After sleeping soundlv
all night, Gagoff awoke at six a

stalwart members of the royai
Canadian northwest mounted po

unfaltering steps. He was placeu
on the trap, the black cap was
fitted into place by official hang
man Ellis of Ottawa who then
stepped back and waited while the
sheriff gave Gagoff his last chance
to speak- “Alexander Gagoff, you
are about to die. Have you any
thing to say?” the sheriff asked.
The question was repeated by
the Russian interpreter, present
n the platform. Gagoff answerd,
in clear untremulous tone: “No.”

n second later the trap was
jprung and Gagotf dropped seven

xjeath was instantaneous and lus
,.uise had ceased to beat in four
minutes.
'iom Gagoff, a cousin of Alex,
arrived on the Tuesday evening
i.rain from the outside, presuma
oly Irom Vancouver, and was
placed under arrest almost imme
jiate because of the police having
tcctived a tip to the effect that
hr was up to some mischief. On
•eing searched after leaving the
train it was found that he was
carrying a thirty-eight Colt re
volver, fully loaded and also had
several extra shells in his pockets.
He is said to have purchased the
revolver at Juneau while on his
way here. He was arraigned in
court Wednesday on a charge of
carry.ng concealed weapons and
received a sentence of three
months and a fine of one hundred
dollars with the alternative of
serving three months more if the
fine is not paid. It is believed that
he intended to slip the gun to his
cousin so that he could cheat the
gallows, it being credited by the
Cossacks a great disgrace to die
by the gallows route.
