feared that he would be discovered before

feared that ne would be discovered before
| he could reach the President
The next morning he vas at the expo
sition early. He took up his position
close to the stand beneath the Pylon of
Liberty, whore the President was to speak.
but got no chance to shoot Yesterday
morning he was at the exposition again
and was in the crowd at the railroad gate
when the President arrived at that point
after crossing the grounds from the Lin
coin Park entrance. But with the rest OF
the crowd he was driven back when the
| Presidents carriage arrived. He saw the
President pass through the gate to the
special train which was to take him to
the falls.
Czolgosz waited for the Presidents re
turn. In the afternoon he went to the
Temple Of Music and entered. He crowd
ed well forward as close to the stage as
possible. He was there when the Pres
idsnt entered through the side door
He was one of the first to hur-
~ forward when the President took his
position and prepared to shake hands
with the people. Czo!gosz had his revol-
yer grppcd in his right hand, and about
both, the hand and the revolver, was
wrapped handkerchief. He held the
weapon TO his breast so that anyone who
noticed him might suppose that the hand
was injured.
He reached the President finally. He
did not look into the Presidents face
He extended his left hand, pressed the re-
volver against the Pre- sident's breast with
his right hand. and fired. He fired twice
and would have fred again and again. but
for the terrific blow that drove him back.
That was all there was to his story.
Did you mean to kill the President"
asked the district attorney.
II did," was the reply.
What was the motive that induced
you to commit this crime?''
Il am a disciple of Emma Goldman"
he replied
1t took the police hours to draw Czol-
gosz's story from him. At first he an
swered only in monosyllables, or not at
all. and most of his answers were false.
While all those who have talked with
the assassin are fully convinced of his
sanity. there is nAertheless to be an
enquiry on the subject at police head
quarters tomorrow noon. At that hour
several of the leading physicians of the
city will see him and talk with him, after
which they will render an opinion as to
his mental condition.
There was a brief argument today be-
tween Secretary Root and District Attor-
ney Penney as to the jurisdiction of the
prisoner. Secretary Root was of the i'm
preston that after the Garfield assassin
alton an act was passed giving the United
States Government jurisdiction in similar
cases District Attorney Penney. while
expressing his entire Willingness to make
any concession desirable to the Federal
Government. was yet of the impression
that no such provision of the law existed,
and an examination of the books revealed
that he was right
AS the case now stands the assassin is
simply locked up with no formal charge
appearing against him.

AT THE ASSASSIN'S HOME.
CzoIgosz's stepmother Informed of
the Young Mans Crime

CLEVELAND Ohio, Sept. Leon Czol-
gosz, who tried to assassinate the Presi-
dent yesterday, lived here with his father
and stepmother and eight brothers and
sisters. They are all honest, hard-work-
ing Polish Americans. Leon was born in
this country and is twenty-eight years
old. one of the brothers, Mike by name
was a soldier the Philippine service
and is now drawing pension from the
Government. The stepmother said today:
Leon left home two months ago. We
heard from him a few weeks ago. He
was then in Indiana and he wrote to US
that he was going far away.
Maybe you will never see me again.
he wrote in his letter. 4 do not know
where l am going, but it will be far
Il can't remember the name of the town
from which the letter was sent, but / re-
member he said he was in Indiana. | had
no idea where he was going and did not
know whore to write to him. We had no
other letter from him
Your son says he is an Anarchist and
that he became so through reading the
writings of Emma Goldman and other
Anarchists the stepmother was told.
Did he read those Horks while at homer"
NO he did not. l did not think Leon
was bright enough. i can't believe he
ever became interested even in Anar-
chists. Why. he always thought Mike
was a great man because he was "A sol
dier and / can't believe the poor boy could
so change that he would try to kill the
President"
Mrs. Czolgosz is an intelligent looking
woman. Her face does not appear stu
pid one by any means. But she received
the news OF Icons act with little emo
ton. When the Interpreter showed her
"a copy of paper containing an account
of the attempted assassination and point
ed out Icons name she looked surprised
and several times said oh rather in
surprise than anything else. Her face
showed no grief.

ment. Everything around il indicated
that the family was AN Industrious one

SEEKING FOREIGN TRAFFIC.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany Branching Out.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-The Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad Company intends becoming
a more prominent factor In foreign
freight traffic than heretofore 1t Is close
ly allied with the International Naviga-
ton company, which controls the Ameri-
can and the Red Star steamship lines,
and vessels are being constructed for the
Red Star fleet that will have an enormous
carrying capacity. The Pennsylvania
company is also increasing its wharf fa-
ciities In order that the Red Star steam
ers may be berthed in Jersey
City. The railway company owns three
adjoining piers south of its Jersey City
ferryhouse. at York. Grand and Sussex
Streets. and has a half interest in the
pier at Morris Steet. Shortly after the
International Navigation Company was
formed, it secured leases of piers Nos. ii
and l5. north of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company's ferryhouse at Cortlandt
Street. in this city.
Work was begun a few days ago on the
pier at Grand Street. and the Sussex
two piers, one large one, 100 feet long
and $50 feet wide, will be constructed
The pier will be carried out to the exte-
rior limit fixed by the Harbor Line Board
The pier at York Street, now 10 feet
wide, will be increased in width to 100
feet and will be extended. These piers
Will have two story Superstructure or
shed Of iron. Freight ears will be run to
and from the railway yard. and this will
facilitate the making up of freight trains
one of The improvements that Will be
put in is an appliance for loading and un-
loading cars rapidly, and great saving
in time and cost will be effected IL is
said. The changes VIII provide ample
berths for the Red Star Lines steamers,
and it is probable that the Italian line
steamers. which carry passengers and
freight. will pass into the direct or i'm
direct control of the railway company and
Will also be docked in Jersey city. The
Red Star steamers now run to Antwerp

UNUSUAL EXHIBITION.
Extraordinary Parting Takes Place Between Two Men nt n RniI-
 way station.

An elderly man and his strapping son stood in a railway station one day late .y awaiting a train. The son was an athletic-looking chap, who attracted general attention by his magnificent proportions, says the Baltimore News. Apparently he was going west. At all events, when his train was called the lOokerS-ou fairly held their breaths with surprise, for the younger man put his arms around the elder one and kissed him fairly and squarely on his mustached mouth, Then he Scurried through the gate, and the last view of him showed him waving a farewell from the back platform of the sleep ing car.
 The remarkable thing about this lit- tie scene was that both participants in 1t were Americans. One wouldn't have been surprised at such a show of af- lection if they had been Germans or Frenchmen or Italians; but it was an unusual exhibition for practical, un- sentimental young America to make.
 The average native of the United states, should he return from Darkest Africa after an absence of ten years. would shake hands with his father just as he would with the strange guest within his gate, and he would ask both aftably To have cigar. On the other hand, his masculine relatives would rvinee their interest and affection by asking him if his boat were on time.
 Kissing in American families seems 10 be looked upon as a foolish cere- mony performed to propitiate the fem mine members, and too undignitied to take place between the lords of ere ation. There are times, of course. when men do not consider osculation either undignitied or foolish - but that's another story.

Arteslan Water Near Holhrook.

The crew sinking the we'll for the Santa Fe. Pacific at Adamana find a good supply of water at depth Of only 300 feet. This point is about eighteen miles east of here, and the supposition is that water can be found all along the Rio Puerco and Little Colorado at even less depth than 300 feet. This well will throw a stream eighteen feet above the surface and it is expected will fill the tank without the use of power.
 There is no better land in the terri tory than that in the vicinity of Hol- brook, when water Is available, and as the question is practically settled, it will only be matter of a year or two when Holbrook will be rival of the best towns in the territory.
 Prof Theo. F. Van Wagenen says: "There are unusually good prospects for oil and gas along the Little Colo rado near Holbrook." In boring for water we have hundred chances to strike oil and gas, and as the work will be pushed at once, Holbrook will have genuine boom in a few weeks.
 A committee of business men are out inspecting the well today, and local company will be formed at once for the purpose of boring for water. Keep one eye on Holbrook. .-Hol. brook Argus.

the amount of mineral development. His work sets in motion and sustains legion of other industries, all operat- ing to the common good. As a pro- ducer of railroad traffic, as a creator of new enterprises, as customer for manufactures of all kinds, the miner is the best purchaser, yivifying wide circle of activities.
 It has been calculated that each un- derground miner affords employment for ten men above ground, thus putting in motion industrial waves on which ride to profit the merchant, manufacturer, farmer and railroad man. He asks for little, but self interest suggests to every man in every capacity that anything that aids the mining industry aids his own busi- ness. The value of the miners pat ronage is manifest. Whatever helps the miner helps all; whatever represses the mining industry iDjureS to that extent the welfare of the nation.
 The miner needs no subsidies con. sessions or antitrust legislation; he does need, however, to have his inn portance more generally recognized. Were it not for the miner one-haif of this entire nation would still be wll- derness, and the other half filled with people preying upon one another in the struggle for existence. The miner has created the greatest home market in the world and is thus the foremost factor in all commercial development. When the miner has money to spend, everybody in his vicinity is pros. porous And the truth of these patent facts should be recognized in the leg lslsture of every mining state and territory.-Western Mining World

EARL'S LOAN" TO A FOOTpAD.
British Nobleman's Forced Contribu- tion Started Robber on the Way
 to Prosperity.

Although so years old, the duchess of Cleveland is a constant traveller and is noted for her conversational DOW CTS, which age has not impaired She can tell story as well as her son, Lord Rosebery. One of her favorite stories is about her father, Earl Stanhope. One night when the earl was walking alone in the Kentish lanes man jumped out of the hedge, leveled pis- tol, and demanded his purse.
 My good man, have no money with me" said Lord Stanhope in his remark ably slow tones. The robber laid hands on his watch.
 "No," Lord Stanhope went on. that watch you must not have; it was given 10 me by one l love; it is worth 100. If you will trust me 1 will go back to 9heyauiug and bring GlOO note and place it in the hollow of that tree. | cannot lose my watch"
 The man did trust him. The earl did bring the note. Years after Lord slauhnpe Nas at city dinner, au. next tu him sat London alderman G S.'ai wealth man widpiE su.cteC. He and the earl talked of many things and found each other mutually enter laining, Next day Lord Stanhope re- ceiyed a letter. ont of which dropped a 100 note. Tt was your lordship's kind loan of this sum," said the note, that started me in life and enabled me to have the honor of sitting next 10 your lordship a dinner" A strange story. But the Stanhopes are strange race, and things happen to them that never did or could occur to other peo- pie.
