.CZOLGOSZ GUILTY
IN FIRST DEGREE
CONTINUED from First Page.)

DecOrum was somewhat forgotten and the
spectators stood up and many walked
about the room and engaged in conversa-
ton. The guards about the assassin,
who still sat in his seat before the
bench, were doubled. Chief of Detective
Cusack and two of his men taking posi-
lions just back of Czolgoszs chair. Others
took seats to the left and right and many
plain clothes" men were seen ming
ling among the crowd surging about the
room closely watching every one whose
face was not familiar one to them.
ALL EYES ON CZOLGOSZ.
There was no disposition to crowd
about the prisoner, although the object
of every one. seemed to be to get in a
position where he could have full view
of his face Czolgosz had been seated
in his chair all afternoon, his hands
clasped on the arms of the chair and his
head bent forward and a little to the
left. The room was not warm, but he
frequently took his handkerchief from his
pocket and mopped the perspiration from
his forehead and checks. At no time dur
ing the 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 sew
eral hundred men and women. Everv
time the door was opened all eyes were
turned in that direction, the evident
thought in every mind being that the jury
would take only few minutes to agree
on verdict.
1t was 4:25 when the crier raped for
order and the jury filed into the room
