could bo tried In the Federal district
or circuit court.
The cabinet ministers were at llrst
Indisposed to include themselves In the
scope of the proposed bill, but were
persuaded to do so by senators and
representatives who happened to be
in Buffalo. These members of Con
gress said thnt tho measure ought to
be broad enough In Its scope and pur
pose to make it thoroughly effective.
Attorney General Knox was author
ized to make a draft of tho bill, which
be will submit to IiIb colleagues utter
thclr return to Washington. Later on
It will be submitted to the President.

On the theory held by United States
secret service agentsjhnt the city of
Camden, N. .1., contained ono or more
persons to whom the plot to assassi
nato President McKlnlcy was known,
Ethelbcrt Stone, an employe of the
New York Shlpbuldlng Company In
South Camden, has 'been arrested by
County Detective John Painter. The
direct causo of Stone's an est was a re
mark he made whllo engaged in a
boated discussion with Oscar Hansen
and Andrew Peterson, fellow employes,
just previous to the receipt of news
from Buffalo. Stone concluded his ar
gument with theso words:
"I will bet $5 thnt McKlnlcy will be
killed before 8 o'clock to-night."
When the nows of the attempted as
sassination was received a few hours
later the remark was tememlicied and
on Monday the employes told General
Manager May about the matter. Ho
asked the Camden police to Investi
gate it.
When taken before Prosecutor Lloyd
after his arrest Stone admitted having
made tho offer to bet, but insisted that
It was a joke. This story, however, la
not believed ly the detectives.
A'search was madCof Stone's houso
at Kerry road and Seventh street and
incriminating evidence. It Is said, was
secured.

arcliUta As events and circumstances begin
to shape themselves the pollco of Buf
falo and tuoTuon of tho United States
secret service who are thcro are being
forced to the conclusion that Czolgosz
acted without prcurraugomeul with
any living person when he shot Presi
dent McKlnlcy In the Temple of Music
on the exposition grounds lust Friday,
says a Buffalo telegram.
This, too, Is tne opinion of Secretary
Root and Attornoy General Knox, who
have heard accurate accounts of what
Czolgosz has said to tho pollco and tho
' district attorney in the several Inter
views ho bus had with those officials.
Whllo thoy believe that ho was en
couraged to attempt the President's
llfq by inconi'lary writings nnd utter
ances of anarchlsta possessed of great
er Intellectual resources than himseir,
they havo been forced lo tho conclu
sion In the light of till tho facts that
have been laid bofoie them that he
acted entitely without consultation
with a single person. Neortheless
the!"o two aatiito luwyeta of tho cab
inet arc encouraging the work of the
police departments of the country In
running down excry clew, every cir
cumstance and every suspicious report
that Is brought to their attention.
They aie encouraged not so much In
the belief Hint actual confederates of
Czolgosz will be (nought to Justice an
because they arc conlldcnt thnt rutltl
cntlons of the crime will bo found In
tho groups thnt exist throughout the

The much sought for Knima Gold
man Is now In custody In Chlcngo, to
await such action as the authorities
may decide to tako agalntt her as ac
cessory to the crime committed by
Czolgosz. The story of her move
ments during the last six weeks shows
that on the 12th of July (Czolgosz says
the 17) she was In Chicago, whero
she had been stopping with the Isaaks.
That night she was to leave for Roch
ester with Miss Isaak, and on tho
way to tho station she met Czolgo3z,
who talked with her for somo time.
Miss Isaak says. Miss Goldman and
her friend left thnt night and stopped
nt Buffalo en route. Three weeks later
they were In Buffalo again, and went
to the exposition, nnd Miss Isaak says
they visited the Temple of Music.
Miss Goldman is not heard of again
until Sept. 1, although the Buffalo
chief of police says she was In Czol-
BUS. PARK AND RIXEY AT THE
gosz's compnny In Chicago on Aug. 18.
At tho former date sho was In Pitts
burg, visiting ono Gordon, an. an
archist agitator, and attending an an
archist meeting, accompanied by a
young man. said to resemble Czolgosz.
Prom Pittsburg she went to Cincin
nati, whero she ntald until Sept. 5,
when shn went to St. Louis and at
tended several conferences with an
archists. On the next dny the attempt
ed assassination occurred, and the fol
lowing inpining sho went, to Chicago
to be near Isaak1, she Buys, In his
trouble.
This Is all that Is known to the
public. What evldenco the authorities
may have is another matter. Mean
while In his confession the wretch
Czolgosz has acknowledged mooting
her here in July, and the police have
somo rcuEon to believe he had been
with her in other places.

Public opinion tu Cleveland, the

tempted assassination of the President.
The pollco have utterly failed In their

convinced that none existed, at least
In tho Immediate) circle of 1jnn Czol

unanimous In the opinion that the re
sponsibility for tho crime does not rest
upon one person. Thn meeting places
and the homes of the foreigners arc
said lo be tho breeding places for an

Albert Webber, a fellow workman, has

was an anarchist nnd In common with
several others of the cult l:i Banbury
expected the attempt on tho life of tho
President to take place during his visit
to tho exposition.
An investigation has been started
