When Spain turned it over to the United States there were over one thousand prison- ers in it, composed of Filipinos, Spaniards, Chinese and various oceanic Malays. They had every disease known to that climate, and were half starved and most cruelly treated. AND FILIPINOS 147 In the north-west corner of the eastern half is a stone room about twelve feet square. In this room stands the executioner ready and eager for his awful task. The death penal- ty is inflicted by means of a garrote — a Span...- ish device for strangulation. It looks like a set of five hundred pound Standard scales. The convict has his arms and legs tied and is set upon it. A clamp is placed about his neck with one end of it projecting through the upright bar. There is a thumb screw, or hand nut, fastened upon this end and gradu- ally tightened until the victim is choked to death.
