would hold themselves ready to an

ths net. 1t was 7 o'clock when Sn-
perlngendent Collins went into the
death house and tried to get the pris-
oner to talk to him. Although he re-
NAMED in the cell some time he was
apparently not successful in getting
anything material from him.
At s O'Clock the brother and broth
er.in.law arrived and Superintendent
Collins took them down to the con-
demned mans cell There was no
demonstration when they met. Czol-
gosz merely stepped to the front or
his steel cage and said:

remark, Il wish you would tell Us,

or no law. CzOigosz THEN seenItu 10
cIsned to give In and went with the
superintendent to the office of Warden
Mead. where q paper relinquishing all
claim upon the body was drawn.
While it was being prepared Collins
called up the chief of police Of Cleve-
land and asked him TO discuss the
matter with Czolgosz, senior. Collins
asked that the situation be fairly
stated to the father and that II he
agreed, q telegram of REIMBURSEMENT
be signed by him and sent at once.
The Cleveland police expressed the
hope that the body would never be
sent to that city.
When the superintendent submitted
the instrument relinauishing all claim
to the body to Czolgosz he refused to
sign It until he had an opportunity to
advise with Waldeck Thomas Bandow-
ski, his brother-in-law, who was the
leader in the plan to secure the body.
He promised final answer at I
O'Clock last night, when he was TO call
with Bandowski for a final visit TO
the condemned man. Collins agreed
- send for him, but would not let the
nother leave the prison. Finally he
was, at O'Clock, informed that the
people at the Buffalo crematory would
not accept the body, and Superintend-
ent Collins at once pointed out to him
that he would have the body on his
hands. At a few minutes past he
agreed to sign, and it was at once de-
cided to bury the body in the prison.
The agreement signed prohibits any
portion of the body being removed
from the prison and this will be
strictly enforced.
Czolgosz suffered. a slight nervous
attack late YESTERDAY afternoon. but
the prison officials did not regard it
in the light Of breakdown.
Dr. Carlos F. Mcdonald and Prison
Physician Germ visited the cell at 6
o'clock They found the prisoner suf-
fering from extreme nervousness, that
manifested itself in Gilated eyes and
free flowing Of perspiration. When
they finished the examination the
prisoner turned sullenly from them
and retired in the corner of his cell,
refusing to talk. They gave him no
treatment and were of the opinion
that while he was very nervous he
did not show signs of absolute col
lapse.
Czolgosz had just concluded a
lengthy interview with Fathers Fud-
zinski and Hickey. There had been
considerable traffic in the corridor
leading to the death chamber and the
prison officials were inclined to sas-
cribe the disturbance of the prisoner
to those circumstances.
Aside from the break at nightfall.
Czolgosz spent his last day of life
much as he did all the others since
he passed into the hands of the law.

Leon, who got you into this serape.
The assassin answered in a slow
hesitating manner, mo one; nobody
had anything to do with it but me-
THAT is not how you were brought
up" said the brother, and you ought
to tell us everything now.
Il haven't got anything to tell, he
answered in a surly manner.
"Do you want to see the priests
again?" asked his brother and he an
swered with more yehemence than he
had previously shown:
NO. damn them; don't send them
here again; I don't want them.
The brother-in-law interjected here
That's right, Leon.
The brother looked rather disturbed
by the answer. Then stepping UP
close to the bars the condemned man
said:
And don't you have any praying
over me when I'm dead. | don't want
it. | don't want any of their damned
religion.
There was a painful pause OF few
minutes and then the relatives re.
sumed casual conversation with him,
to which he replied in monosyllables,
until the brother-in-law suggested,
much to Superintendent Collins sur
prise, that he and the brother be per.
mitted to witness the execution. Be
fore Superintendent Collins could re
ply Leon Czolgosz said:
yes. Mr.. Superintendent, let them
see me killed"
Brother Couldn't See Him Die.
Superintendent Collins told the trio
in emphatic terms that no such thing
could be allowed and ordered them to
say goodbye.
Czolgosz walked to the back of the
cell, sat down on the edge of his cot
and did not answer the last farewell
When the relatives reached the war
den's office they again renewed their
request to see the execution, to which
Mr.. Collins replied:
"Emphatically no. Czolgosz will be
killed at o'clock tomorrow, and il
you apply to the warden in the after
noon you may be able to see the
body"
The two men were then let out OF
the prison.
A few minutes after they had left
Superintendent Collins received tele-
phone message from the chief OF po-
lice OF Cleveland announcing that the
father of the convicted man had
signed an agreement similar to the
one signed by the brother here in the
evening, giving the prison authorities
the disposal Of the body.
The prison was absolutely quiet at
10 o'clock. A little crowd that had
gathered about the main entrance at

manned silent and passed the time

deliberation and slowness. II he

finement he has had a good appetite
and his physical condition has been
excellent He weighed about 1855
pounds, which was thought to repre-
sent a slight gain since his arrest
Walter N. Thayer, former warden of
Dannemora prison, who was request
ed by superintendent Collins to as
sist and advise Warden Mead during
the execution, arrived yesterday He
inspected the death chamber and
chair and suggested an improvement
in the latter, which was made at once.
He found that the bars on the back
of the chair were rather far apart
and expressed the opinion that an up
right blackboard placed inside the
bars would strengthen the grip of the
straps upon the body of the con-
demned man. The suggestion was
adopted. While Thayer was inspect
ing the chair Electrician Davis again
lifted the switch and sent the electric
current through 1t, in final test. Davis
also placed new sponges in the head
and leg electrodes. Late in the after
noon the autopsy table was wheeled
into the room adjoining the death
chamber.
Under orders from the warden a
coffin was also prepared The latter
was of plain pine, stained black.

Czolgosz held his last two inter.
views last night, the first with Srl-

with his brother and brother-in-law.

the interviewers did most of the talk

mentioned when CZolgosz broke from
