Auburn Prison Deluged With
Letters and Packages.
TIE MURDERED is ISOLATED
Letters and Other Matter For the Pris-
oner Never Reach Him-The Prison
Department Have a Fixed Policy
Regarding the Case.

IL was stated at the state depart
ment of prisons today that statements
TO the effect that Czolgosz is in a con
tlnuous state of collapse and that he
breaks down and weeps every time
anything is said to him concerning the
electrocution, are false. Supt. Collins
had a talk with the condemned man
some days ago, and at that time he
said he knew he had TO die. He ex-
pressed no fear as to the electrocu-
ton, but said that he would not care
10 go outside of the prison, for he be-
lieVed that the people would kill him.
Since his confinement in Auburn pris-
on several thousand letters have been
received for him at the prison, as well
as large number of,eXpress packages
containing flowers and fruit The let
tiers, flowers nor fruit have never
reached the condemned man. The
flowers and fruit, it is learned, have
been sent by Christian societies, as
have a number of letters consolng
him in his last moments. Other let
tiers have come from cranks, who have
written about the species OF torture to
which they would put him if they had
the execution of justice in his case.
1t is stated however, that it would
be a matter of surprise if the names
of senders Of fruit and flowers were
made public.
The state prison department has
pursued a uniform policy in regard to
CZolgosZ
An effort has been made to prevent
the murderer from gaining any noto-
riety while awaiting death and to sur
round him by as perfect an isolation
from the world as possible.
