calm, but It waa evident that hi mind
wa fl.ioded with thought of hla own
dlstre. His eyes were dilated, cheek
pale and hi out:reched hand trembled.
When Judge Tltu came over to the
prisoner and bade him good-bye. Cxol
rox replied very faintly, lealng hi
eye rest upon the man who had been
hi counsel. "Gd-bye," he ald, weak
ly. Tne prisoner was brought Into the
room a: 5 minute after S o'clock. F.ve

tic White assumed the bench. Crier
Hej ald:
"Purauan; to reos, thla supreme
court Is now open for the Iran-action of

District Attorney Penny ald:
"If your honor please. I move sen
tence In the case of the people vs. Leon

"Stand up. Ciolgosx. 'Have you any
thing to say." asked Justice 'White.
"Ye," replied the prisoner.
"I think be should be permitted to
make a :atement In exculpation of his
act, if the cur: plea?." said Judge
Titus.
The court replied, "That will depend
upon what his statement Is."
Justice White then said: "Have you
(speaking to Judge Titus) anything to
say in b-.'half of the prisoner at this
time?"
The attorney replied: "It se?ms to me.
In order that the Innocent should not
suffer by thi defendant's crime, the
court should permit him to exculpate at
least his father, brother and sisters."
From the court: "Certainly. If that
Is th? object of any statement he wishes
to make, proceed-"
The primmer saU: "There was no
one else but me, no one else told me to
do It, and no me paid me to do It."
Judge Titus repeated it after him. The
prls.wer continued: "I was not told
anything about that crime and I never
thought anything about murder until
a couple of days before I committed the '
crime." Judge Titus repeated thlg a'so.
Then Justice White passed sentence
as follows:
"In taking the life of our beloved
president, you committed a crime which
shocked and outraged the moral sense
of the dvilixM world. You have con
fessed that guilt and after learning all
that at this time can be learned from
the fa?'s and circumstances of the cae.
twelve good Jurors have pronounced
you guilty and have found you guilty
of murder in the fits; degree. You have
said, accirding to the testimony of cre
ditable witnesses and yourself, that no
othe person aided nor assisted you In
the commission of th:s terrible act. God
grant It may be so. ihe penalty for
the crime for which you stand convict
ed Is fixed by the statute and it now
becomes my duty to pronounce this
Judgment agiinst yoif. The sentence of
the court is that. In the week begin
ning October -'S. UHM, a: the place, in
the manner and means prescribed by
law. you shall suffer the punishment
of death."
The crowd then slowly filed out of the
room and court adjourned.

Departs With the Thought That He Is
the Hero of the Hour.
LONDON, Sept. 26. The Berlin cor
respondent of the Times says that
Prince Chun will officially conclude his
missions to Germany next Saturday and
will go to Genoa on Sunday.
In regard to Invitations to other
courts it Is doubtful If Prince Chun
received any. but he has been desirous
of visiting many German Industrial es
tablishments, which desire he cannot
now gratify.
The .Kreux'Zeltung fears that Chun's
experiences in Germany have not re
sulted in the Impression It was desired
to produce on the mind of the Chinese
special envoy. The honors and atten-
tlona paid to him may have obliterate)
from hi mln all though: of th grav.
