ASKS IF CZOLGOSZ
ALONE Is GUILTY,
Booker T. Washington Gives Out q
Statement in Reference to
Assassination.

Tuskegee, Ala, Sept. 24.-Booker
/. Washington, of the Tuskegee Nor
NAL and Industrial Institute, has given
out statement in reference TO the as
sassination of President Mckinley in
which he says:
SIN all sincerity, l want to ask, is
Czolgosz alone guiltyY Has not the en-
tire nation had part in this greatest
crime Of the century, What is an
archy but defiance of law, and has
not the nation reaped what it has been
sowing2 According to records 2,516
persons have been lynched in the Unit
ed States during the past sixteen years,
and every State in the Union except
five has had its lynching. A conserva-
tive estimate would place the number
of persons engaged in these lynchings
at about fifty per individual lynched,
so that there are, or have been en-
gagged in this anarchy of lynching near
ly 1875, 800 persons, to say nothing of the
many organized bands of technically
organized anarchists. Those compos-
ing these mobs have created a disre-
gard for law and authority that, in
my mind, has helped to lay the foun-
dation for the great disgrace and dis
aster that has overtaken the country.
TO check the present tendency il
seems to me there are two duties that
face us:
First, for all classes to unite in an
earnest effort to create such a public
sentiment as will make crime disap-
pear; and especially is it needful thai
we see that there is no idle dissolute,
purposeless class permitted in oul
midst.
Second, For all to unite in a brave
effort to bring criminals to justice, ant
where supposed criminal is found
no matter what the charge against hin
is, to see that he has a fair, patient,
legal trial.
''At the present time when Cover
nors, Judges, the pulpit and the pres
in all parts of the country are con
demning lynching and anarchy al
never before, is the time to begin thu
reform
when the practice of lynching wa
begun it was said that lynching would
be inflicted but for one crime, but tn
actual facts show that so true is j
that lawlessness breeds lawlessness
that more people are now lynhced eacl
year for other supposed crimes thai
for the crime for which it was begun
"Let us heed the words of our de
parted and beloved chief, as he la,
upon his dying bed, referring to tn
murderer:
81 hope he will be treated wit
fairness.
IF VIM. Mckinley, as he was offer
ing up his life in behalf of the nation
could be brave enough, thoughtful
and patriotic enough to request tina
his assailant should be fairly and hon
; estly tried and punished, surely W
, can afford to heed the lesson.

Buffalo, n. Y, Sept. 25.-The evil
dence given in the Czolgosz trial Mon.
day afternoon included that of Sam
uel ]. Field, chief engineer of the
Pan-American exposition, who de.
srribed the ground-foor plan of the
Temple of music, and was followed by
Perry A. Bliss, photographer, who
presented views of the interior of the
building.
The remainder of the afternoon
was taken up with the testimony of
three physicians, two of whom had at
tended the president during his last
days, while the other performed the
autopsy. The nature and location of
the wound was described and the d.
rection taken by the bullet. The
cause of death was attributed to the
gunshot wound, but, fundamentally
he said, it was due to the changes
back to the stomach, in the pancreas,
caused by the breaking down" of
the material of the pancreas as a re-
suit of the passage of the bullet.
