LAST HOURS Of ASSASSIN
Czolgosz Spends Pinal Day Immured
Prom Vision of Man
AUBURN N Y Oct 28 The time
that Leon F Czolgosz assassin of
President McKinley has to live is reck
oned by hours now but there has been
no relaxation of the stringent rule
under which the prisoner has been se
cluded since his confinement Auburn
rprlson was closed yesterday to any
who sought the assassin and so It will
remain until the prisoner has paid the
penalty which the law enacts
In fact the plan tc deprive Czolgosz
living of any no y has been ex
tended to Czolgos Immediately
after the execution the clothing of the
murderer with the vast accumulation
of mail that came to the prison tor
him will be burned and if possible the
request of the parents of the dead man
for his body will be evaded It is
feared that the removal of his body
to Cleveland would lead to scenes of an
unfortunate nature and the prison of
ficials are very anxious to avoid any
thing of the kind The plan of burn
ing the clothing and letters of the mur
derer will prevent the exhibition of
relics by those who pander to the mor
bid
The hour of 7 on Tuesday morning
is the time set by Warden J Warren
Mead for the execution Various re
ports changing that time have gone
through Auburn One rumor places the
time at 7 oclock Monday morning but
that is discredited by the fact that
Superintendent of State Prisons Cor
nelius V Collins will not arrive here
until 3 p m Monday afternoon and
none of the regularly summoned wit
nesses has yet reached Auburn
