Last Sunday, Kumrow and Millstein requested that their executions be advanced in order that the relief of their relatives and the feelings of their fellow-inmates in the death house might be dulled as much as possible by Christmas time. Millstein killed John E. Creedon, a policeman of Pittsfield. Kumrow shot to death a barge watchman in Buffalo.
