THE ANARCHIST CZOLG0SZ
Asked for Priest But Refused to
RenOunce Anarchy.

Auburn. n. Y, October o.
Leon +. CZoIgoSz the assassin OF
President Mckinley, who is await
ing electrOcutiOn in the prison here
dnring the week commencing next
Monday, fully realizing that his
death is now a question of a few
days, has asked for spiritual con-
ISOLATION and this afternoon received
a visit from Rev. Szadinski, a Pol
ish priest of the Roman Catholic
church.
Father Szadinski, who is pastor
of st. StaniSlaus church, Rochester,
was IN the city attending the forty
hours devotiOns of St Alphonsus
church ard was asked to visit the
prisoner. This afternoon he went
to the prison and remained about
an hour The interview between
the priest and the prisoner proved
very unsatisfactory to both. 1t
took place in the condemned mans
cell aud the conversation was car
ried on in Polish. During the in
terview Czolgosz said that he had
been baptized IN the Roman Cath
ollie faith in the Polish church in
Detroit He had abandoned the
church early in life and had lost
all faith in its teachings.
Father Szadinski urged him to
renounce his belief in anarchy and
return to the faith Of his early
days. Czolgosz declared his 10
ability to do so and he was inform
ed that unless he could the cOnsOl-
alton of the church would be de-
MED him. The priest urged the
condemned man to consider this
matter carefully and told him that
if at any time he decided to re-
embrace the faith he would return
from his home in Rochester and
stay with him until the end, Father
Szadinski, before taking his de-
parture, left with CzolgOsz some
Catholic literature printed in Polish
and also some emblems of the
church. CZolgOsz assured Father
Szadinski that IN case he determin-
ed to accept the offices of religion,
he would send for him, bat he did
not hold out much hope TIL he
would renOunce the dOctrif
anarchy.
Warden Meade and Superinten-
dent Collins at their conference in

details and fixed upon those to be

The law requires that invitations
