He Stubbornly Refused to Answer All 'Questions and Apparently Feigned Insanity. BUFFALO. ST. T., Sept. 16. Leon F. Czolgosz, alias Fred Nleman, -was in flicted today "by the bounty Court grand jury lor murder in the first degree, for fatally shooting President McKinley in the Temple of Music in the Pan-American Exposition at 4:15 o'clock on the af ternoon of September 6. When arraigned before Judge Edward X. Emery in the County Court the prisoner stubbornly refused to answer questions repeatedly asked of him by District Attorney Penny as to whether he had counsel or wanted any. The District Attorney then sug gested that inasumch as the defendant refused to answer, counsel should be as signed. Judge Emery assigned Lorain L. Lewis and Robert C. Titus, ex-Supreme Court Justices of this city, whose names had been suggested by the Erie County Bar Association. Czolgosz will probably be arraigned again tomorrow morning to plead to the indictment. District Attorney Penny presented the evidence in the murder case to the Grand Jury. Aside from the surgeons and phy sicians in the case, no witnesses were sworn other than those who were in the Temple of Music and witnessed the shoot - ing. The -witnesses In the order in which they appeared to testify follows: Dr. Herman Mynter, Dr. H. R. Gaylord, Dr. H. G. Matsinger, Dr M. D. Mann, Secret Service Detective Gallagher, At torney James L. Quackenbush, Attorney Louis L. Babcock, Harry HInshaw, Cap tain Dammer and Patrolman Merkle, of the Exposition Guards; Corporal Louis Bertschey and Privates Neff, O'Brien, Fennenbaugh. and Brooks, of the Seventy third United States Seacoast Artillery; 33.

Cusack, of the local police department; Fred Leigh ter, Charles J. Close, Exposition Guards Wostenfelder and James and Detectives Geary and Soloman, of this city. At 4:15 o'clock this afternoon, Just ex actly 10 days after the shooting, the Grand Jury voted unanimously to Indict Czolgosz for murder in the first degree. At 4:41 the secret Indictment was pre eented to Judge Emery In the County Court. Then ensued a wait of an hour. " The rumor that the murderer was to be arraigned spread, and in a short time the courtroom was crowded. Great se crecy -was maintained as" to the place of confinement of the prisoner, but it Is be lieved that he was locked up in the tem porary Jail at the Erie County Peniten tiary, where prisoners have been kept while the jail has been undergoing re pairs. After the indictment was reported the prisoner was driven from the peni tentiary, a mile from the City Hall, to the jail acros sthe street from the hall. Czolgosz -was then taken under a strong guard from the jail through the tunnel under Delaware avenue to the basement of the City Hall and up the stairs to the courtroom on the second floor. The pris oner was shackled to a detective and another detective held bis arm, Assist ant Superintendent Cusack marching in front and a number of patrolmen behind. When the prisoner was taken before the bencli the crowd in the courtroom surged nKnitf Tilrv -. oil cj3ac T'Vuh. TT'HT'i rCkmr .u. ...... vl aw owi.. J...V.J .... .,. nelled to resume their seats. He Refused to Talk. Czolgosz Is of medium height, of fairly good build and has light curly hair, but a 10 days' growth of beard on his face gave him an unkempt appearance. Ap parently he feigned Insanity, not stu pidity, end JJu,glance roamed about, but liis eyes were always downcast. Jsot once did he -look'the County Prosecutor or the Judge in the face. "Czolgosz, have you got a lawyer? Do you wish a 'lawyer? You have been In dicted for murder in the first degree. Do you want a lawyer to defend you? Czol gosz, look at me and answer." District "Attorney Penny fired these questions at -the prisoner, his voice ris ing with each succeeding question, but Czolgosz stubbornly refused to answer. The District Attorney respectfully sug gested that counsel be assigned to de fend the prisoner and ascertain what he had better do, as to his plea to the In dictment before arraignment. (Judge Emery then asked the prisoner before him whether he had counsel, but there was no ansyer, despite the fact that the peace officers told him the Judge was speaking and that he must answer. The court then said: "Czolgosz, you having appeared for ar raignment in the court without counsel, the law makes it the duty of the court to assign counsel. The Bar Association of our county has considered the matter and suggested the names of certain gentlemen of high character for such assignment. The court has seriously considered the question, and after much consideration has concluded to follow the suggestion made by the association. The court then assigns Lorain E. Lewis and Robert C. Titus as your counsel." Judge Emery directed the officers to notify the attorneys and remove the pris oner: Czolgosz was handcuffed to the de tectives, who started out of the court room with him. The crowds surged after them, but found the exit guarded by po licemen. Outside the courtroom door the prisoner was surrounded by policemen and hurried downstairs into the basement, whence he was taken through the tunnel to the jail across Delaware avenue. "Whether he was left there for the night or taken elsewhere the police refused to Bay. District Attorney Penny said that Jus tices Lewis and Titus would be notified and given an opportunity to talk with the prisoner and that he hoped to arraign Czolgosz tomorrow. XACKAY OX ANARCHISTS. Congress Should Make a Law to Get Rid of Them at Once. NEW XORK, Sept. 16. "Anarchists ehould be dealt with, severely," said John W. Mackay in an interview last night. "We never had so good a govern ment In San Francisco and Virginia City as during those years when the vigilance committees were in control. Every of fender was tried by a jury of 12 good men, and if found guilty executed on the spot. Bad characters left the country In stantly on receiving warning from the committee. It did not have to be re peated. -'I hope the newspapers and public offi cials will urge Immediate action. This shooting down of good men like President McKinley is a serious matter. It makes no difference how brave a man may be, some cowardly assassin may shoot him from a roof at some unexpected moment. Guards amount to nothing. Men have been assassinated in the midst of their soldiers. Summary justice properly exe cuted will do the work. Drive the anarch ists out of America. Hang every one of them caught In these crimes without de lay. Let the movement begin with vigor ous action on the part of the community and they will disappear when they find we mean business. Every anarchist arriving In this country should be sent back by the next steamer. The European police will attend to them. They are shadowed everywhere and they should be kept over there, hunted down and promptly exter minated. "The time has come for business men to take hold of this matter and settle It in (good shape. There should be no half way measures. Let the papers help the movement along, force Congress to make a proper law at the earliest moment and have officials see that it is executed. Pub lic sentiment win do the rest. The country will sustain such a movement and make anarchism a thing of the past." Slayor Broke Up Anarchist Meeting-. NEW "YORK. Sept. 16. Rumors reached the Mayor and Chief of Police of North Bergen, Hudson County, N. J.j last night that a number of anarchists were to hold a meeting there. The officials not being able to locate the meeting the Mayor went over the line into Bergen County and called on Mrs. Brescl, wife of the slayer of King Humbert. She waa told by the Mayor that he suspected the meeting was to be held at her house and she was warned that if it was' she and her visitors would land In jail. Mrs. Brescl was loud In protestations that she was suspected unjustly. While the officials were talking to Mrs. Brescl five Italians came to the house and later eight more. They severally declared they were not anarchists and invited the Mayor to remain. He did so and 'firmly believes he broke up an anarchist meeting. Cowardly Anarchists Arrested. NEW "YORK, Sept 16. Charged with making anarchistic harangues, the police of Newark, N. J., arrested last night "Vic tor Gasscoe and August Britton. Gasscob will also be charged with assault and battery. In his harangue to the crowd he mentioned the name of the murdered President in a manner which caused Mrs. John Solosky to cry "shame." Gasscoe struck her in the face. Later when he proposed the health of Czolgosz the woman reproached him and he struck her again. He defied the police; they seized him by the neck and dragged him to the station. A crowd tried to take Gasscoe from his cell and would have succeeded had not the reserves been called out The prisoners are held In separate cells. Alleged Anarchists Arrested. PHILADELPHIA, Sept 16. Five men were arrested in Fairmount Park last night charged with conspiring against the laws of the country by attempting to uoid an alleged anarchist meeting. At first they denied that there was to be any meeting, but when they were confronted by a postal card, signed by one of them, calling for a meeting in the park, they said the gathering was not to be of an anarchistic nature. The call was issued by the Northwestern branch of the Socialist party. They were held in $600 bail each for a further hearing. The men arrested are: C. F. Schelde, Arthur Shaw, Conrad Warner, John Ewing and Fred Miller. In West "When President Was There.

He Refuses tS Make Public the Terms of the Settlement Steelwork- ers Are Displeased. PITTSBURG, Sept. 16. It was a turbu lent day for President Shaffer and the general officials of the Amalgamated. As sociation. The headquarters of the or ganization were crowded today from morning until evening with delegates of strikers awaiting word from the leader regarding the settlement of the strike President Shaffer had difficulty In seeing all who came, and finally arranged to see individual delegations from each lodge under promise that all they learned from him w$s to remain secret; except when the subject was brought before the lodge and in the lodgeroom. The callers at the general offices were all more or less ex cited and many were deeply incensed. Many of the strikers declared they would not respect the order calling the strike off before they were given full particulars of the settlement Others' were calling boldly for the resignation of President Shaffer, and another class demanded the 0t0 mtlMMMM4HMMtt BITTERLY DENOUNCED CARTOONISTS '-J;- y ''-- -vafiBMssWHKsiMWaw8SKSsfKBM BISHOP EARL CRANSTON, OF PORT LAND Bishop Earl.

He declared that cartoonists portrayed things in a wholly wrong and Improper light, and asserted that they brought about much bitterness through this Improper portrayal. -- o -withdrawal of their lodges from the or ganization. The most worrying feature to President Shaffer during the day was the presence of newspaper men in the headquarters. He finally ordered them from the builrt inc. His order was not obeyed, but upon his promise that an official statement .ol the settlement woulov be given out later, some of the" men withdrew. This state ment was not given out after all. At C o'clock tonight President Shaffer left the office for his home. He seemed much de pressed and wanted to avoid every one. Other officials of the organization busied themselves circulating among the angry men about the offices, and making a pleu for quietness and patience. They insisted that the settlement would not prove to be so bad as reported thus far. Those who weie permitted to see President Shaf fer departed from headquarters looking decidedly displeased and muttering much against what had been told them. Before leaving his office, President Shaf fer announced that he did not think it was necessary to make a statement. He said he was satisfied that none would be forthcoming from the manufacturers, as they had given him assurance that they would not reveal the conditions of the agreement. One of the officials said It was but natural that nothing would be said about the settlement. He added that it was galling enough to be beaten with out talking publicly about it A meeting of .the tlnworkers of the Star mills was held" this afternoon, and arter the meeting the men announced that they had decided to remain out and keep up the strike until they had heard from Presi dent Shaffer. They added that in case the terms were such as to make the Star mill nonunion, they would positively refuse to return to' work and would fight the bat tle single-handed. The strikers at the Monongahela plant of the same company have taken similar action. The strikers in the Lindsay & McCutcheon mills in Al legheny reported for work and about a dozen were re-employed. The American Sheet Steel Company" re ported that the strikers had returned to the Idle mills In New Philadelnhia, O.; Piqua, O., and the Aetna Standard mills in Mingo Junction, and that some had asked for work in the Canal Dover mlfis. In the first three, they had all started to work. In the Canal Dover works tho strikers were not accepted for the pres ent. The American Steel Hoop Company re ported the five plants in Ohio, which were idle as a result of the strike, all opened today. With the American Sheet Steel Company, it was stated that by the starl ing of additional union mills yesterday the company was turning out fully & per cent of the normal tonnage. The reports from the National Tube Company mills showed that over 4000 stiik ers In McKeesport asktd for work there in the various plants during the day. Of this number about 2000 were employed. It Is expected that the remainder will all return to work during the week. The results of the strike In McKeesport are: Wood mill probably lost to Mc Keesport; Demmler lost to the union: more than $1,000,000 was lost in wages. Wheeling tonight reports that the settle ment of the steel, strike without giving publicity to the terms of agreement IHis re sulted In a chaotic state of affairs therp.

Two routes are open for the journey, and the one which the Czar will take is still kept a secret, in order to discourage any attempt at outrage. WATERMELON BARGAINS. One of the Attractions at the Rum mage Sale. Crowds continue to flock to the rum mage sale of the women of the First Congregational Church at 270 Morrison stieet. The stock of goods is renewed daily, and new bargains await the vis-v itor. Last Saturday evening was the busi est of the week. The clerks could have sold -three times the amount of goods if the necessary stock had been on hand. A novelty that drew crowds to the store on Saturday was the supply of "second-hand" watermelons that had been donated to the rummage sale. The water melons were ripe and ,sound, and the fact that they were sold at 10 cents apiece made them go as fast as the traditional hot cakes. The store will remain open until Thursday of this week, by which time the ladies hope to have cleared a goodly sum, if patronage continues at the present rate. GOING EAST?

IN HONOR OF THE DEAD M'KINLEY MEMORIAL SE3RVICES WILL BE HELD IN LONDON. Presence of the Duke of York at the Funeral Is Extremely Doubtful. . LONDON, Sept. 16. The United States Embassy, although not yet officially In formed of the fact learns that a memorial service in honor of the late President Mc Kinley will be held In Westminster Abbey Thursday afternoon, at which seats will be reserved for members of the Govern ment and the diplomatic corps. A me morial service also will be held simulta neously at St. Paul's Cathedral, the Lord Mayor and the Sheriffs of the City of London attending in state. Many well-known persons called at the United States Embassy today and en tered their names In the visitors' book, while others telegraphed condolences. The newspapers here continue to express the hope that the Duke of Cornwall and York will be able to attend the funeral of President McKinley, but It seems now extremely doubtful If It can be arranged, especially since the ceremonies at the Capitol have been fixed for Tuesday. Gov ernment circles seem to think that di rect, immediate action on the part of King Edward is the only way to bring about the attendance of the Duke at Washington. "ft would be an unique opportunity," the Westminster Gazette says, "of show ing British sympathy with the United States, owing to the accidental fact that the King's son Is near at hand. It would, we are certain, be appreciated by the American people." By command of King Edward the Union Jack, which floats over the Round Tower of Windsor Castle during the absence of the court, is half-masted as a tribute of respect to the late President McKinley. The London Stock Exchange will be offi cially closed Thursday next, the day of interment of President McKinley at Can ton. Evidences of mourning for President McKinley are widespread at Cork. The Lord Mayor of Cork. Sir Daniel Hegarty, has convened' a meeting of the corpora tion for September 25, to pass a vote of sympathy with Mrs. McKinley and the citizens of the United States. President Roosevelt's personality at tracts the sympathies of the English. Many stories are told of his athletic and sporting tastes, as well as of his achieve ments as a man of letters, rough rider and public man. "His accession to office is fraught with great possibilities," says the Westminster Gazette. Continuing the paper says: "To a great extent a new element has been brought.Jnto the politics of the world." After alluding to the Alaskan boundary and the Nicaraguan Canal question, the paper asks: "Will his impulsiveness lead him to take short cuts that may prove long and excessive? Time and experience can alone determine." The Globe thinks President Roosevelt has already shown such ability that he would have succeeded President McKinley in 1905, and is confident that he will be a strong and able President. Telegrams from the colonies continue to furnish worldwide evidence of the re spect for the late President. The Parlia ment of New Zealand will adjourn on the day of the, funeral. DAY OF MOURNING.
