MANILA, Four Bandits the First to Die by Electrocution Manila, Apr. 25.
The first Moros ever electrocuted were four Landits who died on the metric chair this afternoon.
Governor-General Stimson refused their petition to be executed by the Moro custom of "bus bus," which is slashing of the abdomen while tied with the back to a tree.
The Moros confessed before the! execution to having taken part in the Moro revolt led by Datu Tahil in February, 1927—Reuter's Pacific Service, evidence submitted to the Com-miltes was given confidentially.
