THE MURDERER WILL DIE
AT z A. M MORROW

AUBURN, n. Y, October 21.-The
time that Leon +. CzoIgosz, assassin
of President Mckinley has to live, is
TO be reekoued by hours now, but there
has been no relaxation OF the stringent
rule under which the prisoner has been
secluded since his confinement, Au-
burn prison was closed to-day to any
who sought the assassin and so IL will
remain until the prisoner has paid the
penalty which the law exaets. In fact
the plan to deprive Czolgosz living of
any notoriety has been extended to de-
prive Czolgosz dead of noteriety.
Immediately after the execution the
clothing of the murderer with the vast
accumulation of mail that come TO the
prison for him, will be burned. and If
possible the requests of the parents of
the dead man for his remains will be
eyaded, II is feared that the removal
of his body to Cleveland would lead
to scenes of an unfavorable nature and
the prison officials are very anxious to
avoid anything of the kind. The plan
of burning the clothing and letters of
the murderer will prevent the exhibit
ton of relics by those who pander to
the morbid.
The hour of seven on Tuesday morn
ing is the time set by Warden J. War
rem Mead, for the execution.
Various reports changing that time
have gone through Auburn to-day and
tonight. One rumor places the time
at O'Clock tomorrow. but that is dis
credited by the fact that Superintend-
ent of State Prison Cornelius V. Col
Inns will not arrive here until 3 O'Clock
tomorrow afternoon and none of the
regularly summoned witnesses have not
yet reached Auburn The chair in
which Czolgosz will sit to receive the
deadly electrical shock was examined
and tested to-day by State Electrician
+. f. Davis and is ready for the part
that 1t is to play in the final scene of
the great national tragedy. Davis

CLEVELAND, O.. October 2T-The
Associated Press is made the medium
Of the last message from the father OF
Leon Czolgosz. the condemned assassin
who will pay the fun penalty for his
terrible crime. in Auburn prison next
Tuesday morning In an interview this
afternoon. the elder Czolgosz was asked
what he had to say finally to his unfor-
tunate son.
The old mans eyes filled with tears
as he replied deliberately
Tell Leon that | hope he may rest
In peace. that he will become reeoneiled
TO God and meet his end braveiy. Tell
him that as much as l and all of our
family regret his most unhappy plight
that we can do nothing to interfere
that he alone is responsible for his un-
fortunate position. and that he must
meet his punishment as eonse-
quence
Further conversation elected the in
formation that the purpose OF the visit
of Waldeck Czolgosz to Auburn is to
arrange for the disposition of the body
after the laws mandate has been car
ried out. Up to this information no
communication has been received by
the elder czolgosz from Waldeek. and
this is taken to mean that the fathers
presence is not desired at the death
scene The entire arrangement of the
after part of the laws course are in
Waldeck's hands. and what steps he
will take is matter of uncertainty.

ebration in Wilkesbarre Tuesday. He
commended the course of the local

LEON CzOlGOSz, THE ASSASSIN OF PRESIDENT MCKINLEY

from Auburn to Cleveland is one of
the considerations that causes hesitan-
cy in the announcement of definite final
arrangements. Paul Czolgosz, the
father, stated that there was some fear
of mutilation or other undesirable oc-
eurrenee at some time or other If the
body should be brought to Cleveland
Immediately after the electrocution.
This fear has led TO the consideration
of cremating the body at Buffalo or
some other city where a crematory is
available Some anonymous communi-
cations to the Czolgosz family have
mentioned the fact that the body might
be valuable as a scientific object to
medical people, and would bring a
good sum of money. but further than
mere hints no definite offer has been
made 1t was stated that such an Of
fer would be distasteful to the family
of the assassin and would not be con-
sidered. Fear that the body might be
stolen IL buried in the usual manner
is also reason for cremation being
favored.

was upon his recommendation that a
show of force against the Sultan was
proposed. But before proceeding in
this unusual manner, the Secretary of
State himself took up the claims, and
with legal assistance went to the bot
tom of them. His investigation did
not sustain his third Assistant Sec
rotary. Mr.. Hay was wholly uncon-
WINGED as to the validity of the claim,
or at the most that there was not
enough in them to warrant summary
action. The request for the warship
was, therefore, recalled. Immediately
thereafter the secretary began looking
about for new third assistant.
Mr.. Cridler, however, courts a full
investigation of his record. Meantime

WASHINGTON. October 27.-The
resignation of Thomas W Cridler. the
West Virginia man who has for long
time been thirl Assistant Secretary of
State, has oceasioned considerable
gossip. Various reasons are assigned
for the resignation. which is said 10
have been rendered by request. One
of them is that his place was wanted
for a protoge of Senator Lodge. An
other and more probable cause is the
alleged failure of Mr.. Cridier to meas
IRE up TO the dignity and capacity of
an assistant secretary. Ii lis said that
there has been considerable dissatis-
faction with Mr.. Cridler's handling of
certain matters referred to him for
consideration and recommendation
Recently the Senators from West Vir-
ginia, from whence he halls, have made
strong representations To the presi-
dent and Secretary of State in Mr..
Cridlers behalf, but these proved in
effectual. There was no charge re-
fiecting upon his honesty or integrity,
and his friends, in urging his retention,
insisted that the dissatisfaction with
his service was simply difference in
judgement as between his and the Sec
rotary. A change in the office having
been decided upon, however, the poll
teal influence exerted. powerful as it
was, failed TO bring about a reconsid-
Grafton. and SO his resignation was an
nounced yesterday.

MATCH co. WON.
Given q Verdict Against the
hester Estate for 81 ,OO2.36.

The following is from the Detroit
Tribune of Saturday last:
Late yesterday afternoon the
jury in the case of the Diamond
Match Co. VS.. the hester estate,
which has been in progress for
three weeks before Judge Swan,
brought in a verdict for the plaintiff
for $1,000 &c. The jury was out
nearly all day, and returned to the
court room before the verdict was
reached to get further instructions
from Judge Swan.
"The Diamond Match Co. sued the
hester estate for $25, 900, there being
several claims in the company bill,
one Of the principal items being be-
cause of the alleged inferiority of
lot OF logs received in a trade. The
remaining items were mainly for
goods said to have been furnished
the estate by the big match concern.
The trial was sort OF sequel to a
suit brought by the estate against
the present plaintiff at Marquette a
year ago last September. 1t was
then charged that the company had
done immense damage to the hester
property by blocking the mouth of
the Ontonagon river.
THE case has been a hard fought
one, the men who scaled the logs in
question being called to testify, be-
sides others from the upper PENN
sula. The match company was
represented by Edwin Walker, one
of Chicago's famous lawyers, and
the man who sent Eugene V. Debs
to Jail for contempt of court; while
Corporation Counsel Tarsney ap-
peared for the hester estate.
