BUFFALO, Sept. president McKin.
ley maintains a good measure of his
strength and those who watch at his
bedside hold higher hopes for his ulti.
mate recovery. The shock from the
wounds inflicted upon him by Leon f.
Czolgosz seems to have been less than
was anticipated and that is regarded
as highly favorable to him.
1t is admitted that his condition has

chamber of the president during the
night and early hours of the morning,
and they all indicated a spirit of hope.

were no alarming conditions of temper

Early III the night a small crowd
gathered near the house, eager for news
of the president, but the police had no
trouble to keep the people at proper dis

The Milburn residence is a two and

archist.
Ozolgosz is not above the average
height. His face is that of q typical
German. He arose at an early hour
this morning and ate a hearty break
fast.
He appears to be very nervous and
starts suddenly when any one speaks to
him. He proves to be very elusive in
answering questions, however. The po-
lice worked over him until late hour
last night and they admitted that very
little progress has been made in bring
ing out facts from him regarding his
past history.
To reporter District Attorney Pen.
ny gave the substance of Czolgosz' S con-
fession as follows:
"This man has admitted shooting the
president. He says he intended to kill;
that he had been planning to do it for
the last three days since he came here
and went into the Temple of Music with
murder in his heart intending to shoot
to kill. He fixed up his hand by tying
a handkerchief around it and waited his
turn to get near the president. When
he got directly in front of the president
he fired. He says he had no confeder.
ate, that he was entirely alone in the
planning and execution of this diaboli-
cal act.
"He says he is believer in the theo-
ries propounded by Emma Goldman,
whom he heard lecture several times.
He also intimates that he does not be-
ieve in cur form of government and
therefore that he deemed it his duty to
get rid of the president.
This in substance is the confession of
Leon Czolgosz, who is a German Pole,
and says his home is in the city of
Cleveland, o. He is % years old, un-
married, and has seven brothers and
two sisters living there. He worked
for a time in the wireworks at Newark,
0. He exhibits no sign of remorse and,
aside from his nervousness, acts as
though he had done what he considered
a praiseworthy instead of a dastardly.

0zoLGosz's CONFESSION.
Had Panned to Kill the Presient sew
eral Days Ago.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Sept. 7.-Although
Ozolgosz refused to implicate any one
else in the plot to kill MIR. McKin
ley, the police are of the opinion
that another man is party to it. The
man is the one who walked directly in
front of Ozolgozz and shielded him from
the sight of the secret service men. The
police have good description of him
and his arrest may occur at any mo-
ment.
There is no doubt according to the
police that this man was an accomplice
of Czolgosz. Two or three suspects
were picked up in various parts of the
city during the day, but they were re-
leased after undergoing an examina
tion, each one proving an alibi
Czolgosz does not appear TO be insane.
Detecuve Sergeant John Geary, who
stood few feet from Czolgosz, when
he fired the shots, and who caught
President Mckinley when he fell, was
asked whether in his opinion Czolgosz
was insane.
