ALBANY, N. Y. October 14-Super-
intendent Cornelius V. Collins will send
request to Secretary of State Hay to
designate an official reporter of the gov
eminent to be present at the electrocu-
ton of Leon +. Czolgosz. the murderer
of President Mckinley. Only &c wit
nesses will be present in the chamber
Of death when the sentence is executed.
Warden Mead of Auburn prison has sent
to Superintendent Collins the requests
he has received for permission to at
tend the electrocution--over 900 In all.
rhe law will limit the number of wit
nesses and the superintendent will de-
eide who the witnesses will be.
II was stated at the state department
of prisons to-day that statements TO
the effect that Czoigosz is in continu-
Gus state OF collapse and that he breaks
down and weeps every time anything is
said to him concerning his electrocution
are false. Superintendent Collins had a
talk with the condemned man some
days ago. and at that time he said he
knew he had to die. He expressed no
fear as to the electroeution. but said
that he would not care 10 go outside
OF the prison, for he believed the peo-
pie would kill him.
Since his confinement In Auburn pris-
on several thousand letters have been
received for him at the prison, as well
as a large number Of express packages
containing flowers and fruit. The let
tiers, flowers nor fruit have never
reached the condemned man. The flow
ers and fruit, II is learned, have been
sent by Christian societies, as have
number of letters consoling him in his
last moments. Other letters have come
from cranks, who have written about
the species of torture to which they
would put him IL they had the execu-
ton OF justice in his case.
It is stated however, that 1t would
be matter of surprise II the names OF
senders OF fruit and flowers were made
public.
The state prison department has pur-
sued Uniform policy in regard to
Czolgosz.
An effort has been made to prevent
the murderer from gaining any notori-
ETY. while awaiting death and to sur
round him by as perfect an isolation
from the world as possible.

A VERY LARGE CLAIM
Filed Against the Estate OF the Late
John Sherman.

Special TO the Register.
MANSFIELD. o., October 14.-Coun-
ty Auditor Friese has placed on the
tax duplicate of Richland county tax
es and penalties aggregating $685.
928.42 against the estate OF the late
Senator John Sherman, alleged to be
due on personal property to the value
of $1,467. 800, which, it is stated. was
not returned by the Senator for the
years 1896 to 1900 inclusive nor by his
administrators for the present year.
It is stated by the county auditor that
the tax inauisitor had nothing to do
with having the omitted property
placed on the duplicate, but that he had
been investigating the matter for
some time. The first hearing was set
for June goth. last. and was postponed
until July 18th. at which time and on
other dates testimony was secured
which resulted in placing the proper
ty on the duplicate. Unless the adj
ministrators OF the Sherman estate. ex-
Congressman w. s. Kerr, OF this city,
and Myron M. Parker. of Wash
ington, agree to the payment
of the amount claimed, suit
will be instituted tomorrow by
the county treasurer, Charles Brum-
field. against the administrators for
the amount claimed. 1t Is known that
Mr.. Sherman owned large amount Of
valuable stocks and securities and in
addition to these numerous gilt edged
bonds, on which there is premium of
IL per cent 1t is understood the suit
for back taxes and penalties is on ac-
count of these bonds.

NEW YORK, October 1.-THE Lon
don correspondent OF the Press sends
the following interview with Israel
Zangwill upon the Zionist movement.
Israel Zangwill, the novelist, poet
and playwright, concerning the coming
conference of the Zionists, in Basic.
Switzerland, said:
ut is not impossible that DR.. Hoczl
may have a great surprise for the
world, to be announced at that con-
vention. He has been negotiating in
person with the Sultan of Turkey for
charter for Palestine. and 1t Is pos
sible that he has obtained that charter.
1t seems likely, at any rate. that the
charter may be had before many
months.
"Once the charter is assured, much
larger contributions should be obtain
ed. We have at present about one mil
lion dollars. most OF it from three or
four subscribers. and after the charter
is obtained and the money is raised the
poor folk among the Jews will have =
