FAMILY INDIFFERENT.
Show Little Interest in Execution or
 Czolgosz.

Cleveland. O., Oct 2S-The members or the family of Leon F. CZolgosz, who are in this city, show as little concern over the fate of their son and brother as If he bore no relation whatever to them. The seeming indifference is remarkaple' ne father of the assassin was down town tonight in conference with Chief or TO- lice Corner. but the purpose or the con ference. could not be learned.
 That the elder Czolgosz has become en- tirely indifferent as to the fate of his son ar else does not realize the terrible pen alty that he must undergo, Is very eVl- dent. An incident that happened While on his way to his home in the Polish ols- trict this evening is of interest. A little newspaper boy hopped onto the car ana cried out the evening papers featuring as an inducement to buy, the electroculloh ol Leon Czolgosz in Auburn prison tomor- row. He spoke directly to the old man. but if he understood he showed not the least consciousness that the matter Tn any way concerned him. He simply stared into space, and 1t Is only 1alr to assume that the words of the newsboy were not understood, CZolgosz not oelhs very familiar with the English language grasping the most ordinary words only after much difficulty.
 When he arrived at his home. the fam fly had gone to bed and had to be aroused that the father might be admitted.
 No word, other than a telegram asking for $35. was receivel by the family today from the brother. Waldeck, and his broth er-in-law, Bandowski, who are in Auburn and the statement was made that these two men would probably leave Auburn for Cleveland Wednesday or Thursday. The assassins father, younger brother and perhaps two of his sisters VIII De in the Cleveland office of the Associated Press tomorrow morning and will there learn of the carrying out of the law.

THE CAPTURE DESCRIBED.
Awful Tortures Used to Fasten Gull
 on Bulgarians.

New York, Oct 2S.-A special to the Press from Boston says:
 "Under the caption, The Odgssee of Miss Ellen Stone The Evening Post Of Sofia, Bulgaria, copies of which have just been received in Boston, publishes de- scription of the capture of the American missionary The article contains an in- terview with Konstantine Pitsin, the Bulgarian horse keeper. whose horses veer ridden by Miss Stone and her party when they were held up by the brigands from the frontier 1t then describes the capture:
 ''we were travelling from Bansko to Djumay (both are in Turkish territory upon the mountain road. In the place known as Gradovishte there suddenly ap- peared ten men, who, covering us with Mausers, called out Teslim Clun. (Turk- ish for surrender).
 We were all on horseback, Including | Grigor Tsilka (the husband of Mime Tsil- ka) and the student Dimtrkostov. We all dismounted and were driven straight up the mountain. The place was almost im- | passable. The saddle of the horses and even the clothes of the women were scratched and torn to threads by the very | underbrush.
 | About 800 metres from Leaning Rock | our captors were joined by twenty-two | more Turks and Arnauts, who searched | the women and took away their watches | and other valuables the spot Miss | Stone had about fifty lire Turkish with her Then they led off Miss Stone and Mime. Tsilka and left the rest of us under a guard of fifteen men. There we remain ed all night under pain of being shot if we stirred. When daybreak came We saw the guard had vanished and We went | to Mahomia.
 "The brigands spoke only Turkish. On the day after my arrest in Mahomia I was taken before the Kadidi, who urged me to say that the brigands were Bull garians. This I refused to do, because did not wish to perjure myself. Then they put me on the ground and beat me with rods and kicked me until l was un- | conscious.
 "On the next day the Turkish soldiers captured all the wood-cutters in the mountains of Gradevsko and massacred the men. while the women and children were driven to Djumay in chains. After three days I was released and succeeded in making my way to the mountains, anC then escaped into Bulgaria.
 In another issue the Sofia Post prints an interview with a Macedonian refugee who made his escape from Turkish terri. tory to Bulgaria.
 The Post quotes the refugee as saying
 Tn the town of Gradevsko fifteer townsmen were arrested and driven ir chains to Djumay, where they were sub jected to fearful tortures in prison. IT the village of Sudbinivo peasants were seized and their feet placed In vices After each tightening of the screws they were urged to make a confession identify ing the brigands as Bulgarians. In many other villages the same barbarities are be ing practiced, all on the pretext to locate the captured American"

REDUCTION OF RANSOM.
Miss Stone to Make Request of the
 Brigands.

Londcn. Oct. 29.-"Mr. Dickinson United States Consul General at Con- stantincple, has written to Miss Stone at Belitza, requesting her to induce the brigands to consent to reduce the ran son." says the Vienna correspondent of The Daily Telegram 'The Bulgarian op- position journal, The Minister, declared that the troops fraternized with the brigands and allowed the latter to es- cape through the Cordon.
 The Porte must be aware that the patience of the United States is well nign exhausted and that the United States government is not likely to show the same leniency which France shows from fear of disturbing Eastern Europe"
 "The Stone affair." says the Vienna correspondent of The Times. Ifs the sec ond incident in the comparatively brief period, and seeing how freely an anti American combination is discussed among the European powers. America cannot be expected to consult their con- Vcnience.
 Tt seems to be too readily assumed that the United States are unable or unwilling to defend their interests. It can only be hoped that this will not prove a serious illusion"

 Walter N Thayer, former warden of Dannemora prison, who was requested by Superintendent Collins to assist and ad- wise Warden Mead during the execution, arrived today. While he was inspecting the death chamber and chair, Electrician Davis again lifted the switch and sent the electric current through 1t, fin final test. Davis also placed new sponges on the head and leg electrodes. Late in the afternoon the autopsy table was wheeled into the rosm adjoining the death cham ber.

 Czolgosz will be dressed In very sim ple manner for the execution, a pair of black trousers, a loose gray shirt, and pair of gray socks completing the out fit He will wear no under garments and no shoes. The left leg of the trousers will be slit at the bottom to permit the free adjustment of the electrode, and the shirt will be open at the neck so the doctors can take the heart count If there should be any after the current Is passed through the body.
