WILL HAVE PROMPT TRIAL.
A Special Term of Court VIII Act on Case
of Presidents Assailant.

A Special Term of Court VIII Act on Case
ofPresident's Assaiiant.
Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. 9.-TJntil the
last doubt OF the Presidents recovery
has vanished, Leon F. Czulgosz will
be held by the police to await the result.
Should the President recover, the
charge Of assault with intent to kill
will be made against the asssilant and
the proceedings will be conducted
wholly in the State courts. This was
settled by conference between Gov.
Odell and District Attorney Penney,
held in this uity, and the plan has been
approved by Secretary of War Root.
Gov. Odell came here to arrange for
the trial and punishment of the an
archist. After talking with Mr.. Penney
hs agreed to appoint special term of
the Supreme Court for the trial of
Czolgosz. The case will take the usual
course. Czoleosz will have an examina-
tion and will be held for the action of
the grand jury. which will indicr aim
on several counts. His trial Will follow
as soon as possible. Should evidence
of conspiracy strong enough to warrant
action be obtained the nature of the
charge will be altered
Though the legal penalty forCzolgosz' g
crime, should the President recover, is
only 10 years in prison, he will not
probably escape with this penalty. 1t
will be remembered that he menaced
with his revolver Detectives Ireland
and Foster and James Parker, the negro
who grappled with him, Each of these
acts constitutes separate assault in
the first degree, on which indictments
will be found. The asssIlant was also
guilty of carrying concealed weapons
and committed two distinct assaults
upon the President in firing two shots.
The element OF conspiracy presents
another crime. So a construction of the
law to fit the entire case is said to
warrant half dozen indictments for
different offences, on which the prisoner
may he convicted and sentenced sepHr-
ately, the sentences to run successfully
and not concurrently.
Peter V. Fennelly, who admits that
he has been tentatively engaged as
counsel for Uzolgosz, said tonight that
Mrs. Czolgosz, mother of the man who
attempted tn assassinate President Mo-
Kinley, arrived in Buffalo this morning.
Mr.. Fennelly said he could give no
further information than that Mrs.
Czolgusz was stopping at some place In
East Buffalo, in the Polish colony. He
said she had not visited her sou, and
probably would not do so. Mr.. Fen
nelly said it was probable he would not
defend Ozolgosz, but he added:
whoever does defend Czolgosz will

POSTAL OFFICIALS PUZZLED.

Unable to Make Out the Address of a Lot
ter Which is Found TO Contain Consider
able Money.
Postmaster Browne is in possession of
letter which has given the postal
officials in, this city and Washington
NO little concern. Although it contains
considerable money the postal authori-
ties do not know what to do with 1t.
According to Assistant Postmaster
Billany. the address is illegible and the
name OF the sender cannot be ascer-
tanned; therefore, it is at the office
awaiting claimant or Instructions
from the sender, whose identity is yet
unknown.
According to Mr. Billsny, the letter
was mailed in this city some time ago.
1t was addressed to some person in
France. and was evidently mailed by
some Frenchman in Wilmington, but
the people at the postotfice could not
make out the name or any part of the
address except the word France, " and
as they did not know where to send it
they followed instructions in such cases
and sent 1t to the dead letter office.
After remaining there the required
length OF time it was returned to the
Wilmington Office. Upon being opened,
as last resort, with the hope OF learn
ing the name of the sender, II was
found to contain much money. Letter
and money now await an owner at the
local office.

Buffalo, N. Y, Sept. 9.-When he
awoke, after his morning nap today,
President Mckinley called DR.. Rixey
to his bedside and asked that he be
permitted to read the morning papers
Of course, he was denied this. but
the physician was pleased that the
President should take so active an in
terest in public affairs. The President
was assured that if he continued to
progress favorably he might in week
read the papers as usual.
For the first time since his would be
assassin was taken from his sight Presi-
dent Mckinley today mentioned Czol-
gosz. lie asked what had been done
with the assailant and was told he was
being held as prisoner here.
He must have been crazy,' said
President Mckinley. 81 never saw the
man until he approached me at the re-
ception. "
'He is an anarchist" the President
was told.
"Too bad, too had," was the reply.
81 trust, though, that he will be
treated with all fairness. %
The President was also told that from
all parts of the world messages Of
formed that the American public had
shown great grief over his misfortune
and this had demonstrated that he has
strong grip upon the affections of his
fellow -countrymen. The President was
himself too highly honored. To DIR.
Rixey he said that he hoped 10 recover
to show that he appreciated all which
had been done for him.
Perhaps the strangest feature of the
progress that has been made toward re-
coyery by the President il that he has
at no time shown any symptoms of
relapse. After the operation there was

moment his wounds were dressed his
progress has been steady and satisfao-

never known another patient who ex :
hibited 80 great tendency to respond

worthy of the study of men who are
capableof understanding such things. :"
The President asked how long 1t

to partake Of food. DIR. Rixey told him
that the wounds in his stomach would
not heal in less than week or 10 days,
and during that time it would be i'm
possible for him to take any solid
nourishment. This information was
far from pleasant, but the President
made no complaint other than a semi
jocular remark to the effect that it was
bad enough to be shot, without being
starved to death.
An indication of confidence in the
Presidents recovery was the announce
ment made tonight by President
Buchanan of the Pan-American Ex-
position, that there would be another
PRESIDENTS Day. before the show
closed. 1t is proposed to make the
occasion a festival of rejoicing over the
Presidents recovery. Mr.. Buchanan
did not make the announcement until
be had received positive assurances
that the President would in all proba-
bility recover.
