of Mckinley Will Pay the Penalty.
Albany. N. Y, Oct. 24.-Leon F..
Czolgosz, the murderer of President
Mckinley, will be electrocuted at Z a.
m. on Tuesday, Oct. 20 at Auburn
prison. Warden Meade has selected
Tuesday so that final arrangements
may be made on Monday. In doing
this he is following the general custom
in the state prisons relative to electro
cutions. 1t does away with the neces-
sity of making final arrangements on
Sunday. The sentence of the court was
that the execution of Czolgosz should
take place during the week commenc-
ing Oct. 2S. leaving to the warden of
the prison full power to select the day
of the week in which to carry out the
mandates of the law. This latitude is
given the warden to secure secrecy as
to the time of execution, and to guard
against delay from accident, such as,
in 1S93 caused a delay of an hour in
an execution after the condemned man
had been taken into the death house
at Auburn penitentiary.
The witnesses will assemble at the
prison at $3.50 o'clock on Tuesday morn
ing. There have been twenty-six in
vitations issued and they are nom
transferable. Each witness must pre-
sent his invitation to the warden of
the prison, and if he is not identified
to the satisfaction of the warden as
being the man to whom it was issued
he will not be admitted.

NEGRO BURNED AT THE STAKE.
Confessed His Crime and Said He
Deserved His Fate.

Columbia, Miss, Oct. 24.-The ne
gro. Bill Morris, who assaulted Mrs.
John Ball at Balltown, La, was burn
ed at the stake to-day. After being
captured he made an effort to impli-
cate others. but they proved their in
nocence. Morris was taken to the
scene of his crime and chained to a
pine sapling. His hands and feet were
bound to his body. Pine knots and
pinestraw were piled about the body
and saturated with coal oil and a match
applied. The negro made no outcry
when the flames first reached him, and
only when he was partly consumed
did the spectators notice any move
ment of the wretch. He made no re-
sistance when being bound at the stake,
and said he deserved his fate.
Morris beat his victim on the head
with pine knot and thought he had
killed her. Going back to Balls store
he took all the change in the cash
drawer. He then put oil on his feet
and also on his tracks when leaving
the store. Mrs. Ball, however, recov-
cred consciousness and crawled to her
father-in-law's. He at once gave the
alarm and the neighborhood commence
ed a search for the negro. He was
found at his home about four miles
from the scene of the tragedy, and in
trying to escape was shot by one of
the posse and wounded in the hip.

THE EAGER GAYNORS
ARE ANXIOUS FOR A TRIAL, SAYS
ATTORNEY ROSE.
BUT HE OPPOSES AN ADVANCE.
REPLIES TO SOLICITOR GENERAL
RICHARDS MOTION.

Mr.. Rose Denies That His Clients
Are Seeking to Delay the Trial,
but Asserts That the Governme mt
Is Seeking to Obtain an Abduction
Through Forms of Law-He At
tacIs the Fairness of the Court
and Speaks of an Indictment
"FOund by a Possibly Packed, Ger
tainIy Picked, Illegal Grand Jury"
Washington, Oct. PA brief was
filed in the Supreme Court to-day in
the so-called Gaynor cases, upon the
motion made by Solicitor General Rich
ards, to advance these eases. The plain
tiffs in error or appellants are Benja-
min D. Greene, John F. Gaynor and E.
H. Gaynor, the defendant named being
William Hinkel, United States marshal
for the Southern district of New York.
The plaintiffs are virtually in custody
of the marshal, though on bail pend
ing the proceedings in the Supreme
Court. The solicitor general, in urging
that the case be advanced for hearing
recited the various steps taken to bring
the case to trial. He referred to the
alleged connection of Capt. Oberlin M.
Carter with the Gaynors in the con-
tracts in Georgia, in which the gov
ernment had been defrauded, to the in
dictment of the defendants and the or
der made by Judge Brown for their re-
moval to Georgia for trial, from which
order the defendants took an appeal to
hn ba SO1iOifnr
eral charged delay on the part of the
defendant.
In the brief filed by Abraham j.
Rose to-day it is denied that the de-
PENDANTS are seeking to delay trial,
and it is asserted that the delay has
! been caused by the government, in its
efforts to ''obtain an abduction through
forms of law" Mr.. Rose also says
that it is unfair to put before the
court statements as to the conviction
of Carter, as such facts have no bear
ing on the case, and especially as the
legality of that conviction is raised on
a case already pending in the court.
The brief says:
''The defendants now are and always
have been ready to be tried before anv
Impartial, unprejudiced court or any
valid legal indictment but they have
objected and will object to being sent
for trial before a court that they be-
lieve will not give them a fair trial,
and be there tried on an alleged in
dictment found by a possibly packed,
certainly picked, illegal grand jury"
In conclusion ample time to prepare
the appeal is asked, but objection is
not made to advancing the hearing of
the appeal.

GEN. PEARSON IN WASHINGTON
Boer Agent Will Seek to Arouse |
sympathy for His Compatriots.

Washington, Oct. 24.-Gen. Samuel
staff of Gen. Botha, one of the Boer
leaders, arrived in Washington to-day
and is staying at the apartments of
Cornelius w. Van Hooght, the Boer
representative in Washington. During
a visit to Europe before coming here,
Gen. Pearson had interviews with DIR,
Leyds. the Transvaal agent in that
country, and with other leading men
from the South African republics. He
says the Beers will not give up to the
British, but will fight to the end.
Gen. Pearson hopes to enlist the SYM
.pathies of the people of this country in
behalf of the Boer men, women and
children, who are now kept by the
British in concentrate camps. There
is, he says, no reason for locating
them in these camps, when there
are ample accommodations in the
country for them. There are now 109,-
900 persons so situated and during the
month of September the mortality
among them approximated 2,400 in all.
He says the soldiers are willing TO
submit to the hardships Of the CAM
paign, and to the rules of war, but
helpless men, women ana CHlluTen III
the camps should be accorded humane
treatment. AS the American consul
at Pretoria watched after the interests
of the British prisoners, he says, it
would be proper and just for the Beers
to have the representative of some
friendly government look after the in
terest of the reconcentrados.
During his stay in Washington the
general will seek an interview with
President Roosevelt, to acquaint him
with the situation existing in South
Africa. He will also make a further
effort to prevent the shipment of mules
from this country to South Africa, and
to have the matter carried to the Unit
ed States Supreme Court.
Gen. Pearson says that President
Kruger may visit the United States
at some time in the future, but Moth
ing definite on this matter has been
determined upon.
Mr.. VanHooght said tonight that
the Beers are not seeking intervention
by the United States government at
the present time.

Washington, Oct. 24.-President
Roosevelt and party returned to Wash

was without especial incident Secre-

from New Haven. Miss Alice Roosevelt
Joined the party at Pennington, Conn.
Only a few people had gathered at
the station here, but squad of police
and detectives and Chief Wilkie of the
secret service, with several of his off,
GERS, guarded the approaches. The
President, as he walked briskly down
the long platform, smilingly acknowl-
edged the greetings of the railroad
employees. When he reached the en-
gine that had pulled the train from
Philadelphia he reached his hand to
the engineer and fireman and said
goodbye.
"I wanted" he said to them, ito get
on the engine this morning, but I
didn't know whether I would be per-
mitted to. Now, next time take a
trip 1 want to ride on the engine"
The President was driven directly
to the White House. He went imme-
diately to his Office, where a large ac-
emulation of business awaited him,
and denied himself to all callers.

the state.

revenue be appointed by the boards of

CADETS ARE GOOD BOYS NOW.
Supt. Mills Praises Them Highly
and Says All IIItreatment of New
Cadets Has Ceased.

Washington, Oct. 24.-The most i'm
portant feature of the annual report of
Col A. L. Mills, superintendent of the
Military Academy, relates to the meas
ures taken for the suppression of haz-
ing. Treating of discipline, he says:
1.-THE discipline of the corps of ca
dets has greatly improved during the
year, and is now in an excellent state.
1t is believed no military body of its
size exists which excels it in soldierly
appearance and in perfection of drill
and military exercises.
Throughout the past summers en-
campment, which is the time when new
cadets are being initiated into their
new life and when hazing is ordinar-
lily practiced, it is a fact that the great
majority of cadets have obeyed the
new order of affairs and the regula-
tions Loyalty and willingly. Not one
case of maltreatment of a new cadet
is believed to have occurred, none have
been required to perform services of a
menial nature for old cadets, there has
been no prearranged fighting and new
cadet training has made exceptional
progress. One cadet was severely pun
ished for giving an unauthorized and
absurd order to new cadet, and an
other for exceeding his authority as a
drill master over them. The action Of
the latter arose, I believe, through ex-
cessive zeal rather than hazing spirit.
Another reform has also been accom-
plished, the abolition of what is known
as official hazing or the harsh and nag
ging tones of the cadet instructor over
new cadets and cadet officers exercis-
ing authority.
"The custom among cadets of settling
disputes or difficulties among them
selves by prearranged and often brutal
fist fights is over and there need be
no apprehension that the stoppage OF
such affairs will in any way impair
proper habit of manly self-defense
against personal assaults or insults"

injured to-day in the wreck of Chi

the rails and plunged down 40-foot
embankment.
The train consisted of engine pas
senger coach, mail car and combina-
tion car. Thirty passengers were on
the train, and a number received slight
injuries. How the casualty list failed
to reach alarming proportions is a
mystery, as the cars were reduced to
complete wreck. The cause Of the
accident is thought to be spreading of
the rails. owing to a softened condi-
ton of the roadbed.
