l"rg" nnmbrr Of women Witnessed
tn" proceedings today.
AT 2:44 this afternoon District At
torney Penney abruptly announced
that the case of the prosecution was
ended. Judge Lewis arose slowly
and addressing the court said that
tho sudden close of the case against
Czolgosz WAS surprise to him and
his colleague. They had no witness
to call for tho defense. He asked
tho court that he be allowed to ad
dress the jury at once The court
consented and the venerable iurist
began an address that will long be
remembered by those who heard it.
The jury retired at 3.51 to consider
the evidence. The scene in the court
room then became dramatic in the OK.
treme Decorum was somewhat for
gotten and the spectators stood up
and many walked about the room
and engaged in conversation. The
guards about the assassin, who still
sat in his scat before the bench, were
doubled, Chief Of Detectives Cusack
and two of his mon taking positions
just back of Czolgosz's chair. Oth-
era took seats to the left and right
and many "plain clothes" mon we're

every ono whose face WAS not fa-
miliar one to them. There was no
disposition to crowd about the pris-
onor, although the object Of every

ton whore he could have full view
OF his face Czolgosz had been seat
cd in his chair all afternoon, his
hands clasped on the arms of the
chair and his head bent forward and
little to the left. The room was
not warm, bnt he frequently took his
handkerchief from his pocket and
moPped the perspiration from his
forobead and cheeks. At no time
during tho absence Of the jury did
he raise his eyes or lift his head or
seem to know that he was the object
OF interest of several hundred men
and women. Every time the door
was opened all eyes were turned IN
that direction, the evident thought
in every mind bong that the jury

gosz WAS placed on trial today for
murder Of President Mckinley on
Sept. 6 The trial was in the gu.

Truman G. White presiding.
The trial began at 10 o'clock, but
long before that hour the streets in
the vicinity Of the city hall were the
objective of many curious persons
They were willing to take chances Of
being admitted to tho courtroom,
even though they knew that there
were but $50 seats available.
The various entrances to tho great
building, with the exception Of that
on Franklin street, were closed and
guarded.
Policemen were every where and rig

the people become aroused to the ex-
tent of roting. Mounted officers
paced slowly around every side of
the structure and no ono WAS allowed
to stand on tho sidewalk for mo-
ment, so that at no time WAS the
crowd large.
PRISONER PLEADS GUILTY.
When Czolgosz WAS arraigned in
court today to plead, District Attor-
ney Penny read the Indictment and
asked: "How do you pleadY" Czol-
gosz answered that he did not hear,
thus uttering the first wo,ds he has
spoken in court. The district attor

repeated the question as to the pris
