There wasonly one witness to the

Captain Gladstone immediately noti-
fied Chief of Police William Vollmcr
and Medical Examiner S. H. Hunting-
ton. In a few minutes the chief was at
the police station. Officer Pennington
was detailed to go to the railroad sta-
tion and notify Officer Allen. who was
on duty there. also to inform conduct-
ors of all trains. brakemen and every-
one in connection with the railroad.
The telegraph instruments were kept
warm telegrapbing from station to sta-
t on.
The chief then telephoned around
the surrounding country, and informed
the police and constables in every town
within a radius of thirty miles. The
ground was well covered. After he
was satisfied that if the assassin at-
tempted to go out of town. he would be
captured. he and Captain Gladstone
visited the scene of the tragedy. going
there in a carriage.
When they arrived they found about
a dozen ahead of them. Mr. Ely and
his family were there. along with
O’Toole and several of the nearby
.mlfihbovt. nDeputy. Sheriff John W.
Sculloy. w‘th several assistants. who
tOok orders from him. were scouring
the woods in the vicinity. besides oth-
ers who had volunteered their services.
The officers secured what information
they could from the broken English
spoken by the Ely family. They said
they did not know. the murderer's
name. They only knew him by the
name of Bennie. They had never ask~
ed for any other name. it was over an
hour before it was learner] that the dos-
cription that had been sent broadcast
of tho fugiilve from justice. was entire-
ly the opposite to wlini. it should have
been. It was a bad blunder on the part
of the informant. and whether done in—
tentionally or not. Is not known.
Without losing any time. the chief
returned to South Norwalk and went
aI over the ground again. telephoning
and telegraphing the correct descrip-
tion of the man. He and the captain
again went to Witch Lane and endea-
vored to learn the. name of the man
-who was capable of committing such a
rash deed. They went to the house of
Ely and broke open a trunk in order to
find a letter or some papers on which
his name would be written. They were
unsuccessful. for there was not a scrap
of anything that would reveal the
name. About one hundred cartridges.
a couple of old shirts and other worth-
less material. were all that were
found. Finally. through an Italian
who knew the murderer and knew how
to spell the name. the police were suc-
cessful In obtaining it.
With the Information they had. they
were better able to hunt for the fugi-
tive. The chief and captain returned to
South Norwalk about 12 o'clock. oni-
cers Pennington and Hall were detail-
ed to, watch the woods in the immediate
vicinity all night. to see that he did not
return to the house.
It was about 10 o'clock when Medical
Examiner Huntington arrived at the
scene of the shooting. He made a has-

They Propose being to in-

It is now merely the question (if
days before the wliir of the wheels of
industry will again be heard at the
Norwulk and ir‘nirfield Mills. The
lessons. Edgar M. Andrews. of New
York city. and Erwin ll. smith. ‘ of
Philadelphia. are making. every effort
to establish their business here as soon
as possible.
Mr. Andrews Is in Norwalk today to
confer with William 1". Wood. who, It
was expected. would arrive in town
this morning. but did not and may get
here during the afternoon.
The firm name of the new company
will be Andrews & Smith. and Mr.
Wood will be the superintendent of the
mills. The latter gentleman is thor-
oughly competent to take this posi-
tion, as he has been in the mill busi-
ness all his life and understands it in
all its intricacies. Mr. Wood's last
olucv was as superintendent of a large
mill in South Coventry. which only a
:hort time ago burned down.
Mr. Andrews is authority for the
statement that the mills which he and
his partner have leased will be run
with 'a full complement of bands.
which means that several hundred
people will receive employment. The
company already has plenty of orders
to start with and more will be forth-
coming. as Mr. Andrews already has
a wellostnbllahed business. and has
offices at 53 and 55 Worth street, New
York city. He Is a members of the
firm 'of Andrews and Reddiclr. who
have a mill at Dalton. Mass.
Mr. Andrews'e chief reason for In
eating in Norwalk is because of Its
nearness to New York city. which
makes its. good shippin point. In the
Massachusetts mill Mr. Andrews has
been manufacturing woolen goods on-
ly. but at the Norwalk plant both wor-
sted and woollen goods will be pro-
duced. Goods will be shipped direct
from here to the different parts of
the cormtry. wherever they may be
sold. The company will sell only di-
rectly to the merchant who Is to re-
tail the goods and not to commission
houses. as most mill concerns do. and
by so doing they can sell the merchant
goods cheaper than can the commis-
sion houses. Mr. Andrews has run his
business in this way for a number of
years and been very succosaful and
confidently believes that be will iii-
crease his business greatly when he
gets the Norwalk plant in good run-
ning order.

COLUMBIA. Mica. October zit—The
town of Columbia and its vicinity was
thrown Into great excitement yester-
day by several messengers from the
vicinity of Balltown. I.a.. about In
miles below here. who brought the
news that a race riot had been precip-
itated by the whites and blacks of that
section by the shooting and burning of
the negro. Bill Morris. who criminany
assaulted and almost murdered Mrs.
John Ball. a few days ago. Several
runners brought the news that uumérv
one white men were Wand that, m,
negrocs were arming themselves for
the fray. This information created the
wildest excitement and a number of
men. headed by Deputy Sheriff Bran
ton. of this county. and Marshall T. T.
Ford. of Columbia. all fully armed. left
for the scene of the troubles.
Telegrams were sent to Governor
Heard. of Inirisiaua. by citizens of
Washington Parish. who were in Co-
lumbia. informing him of the situation
and an attempt was also made by Sher-
ii’i‘ Ball. of Marion county. to reach
Governor Longiuo. of Mississippi. As
the wires were down between here and
Jackson for quite a while. nothing
could be accomplished until last oven
lug. after tidings had been received
from the scene of the trouble. Then
answers were received instructing the
sheriffs to call out the nearest troops
if needed.
it seems that a negro named Orea
Lott was really at the bottom of the
trouble. It was reported to the offic-
ers of Washington Parish that Lott.
who lived near Booth. LIL, was run‘
plug a restaurant Without a license at
a camp meeting at Live Oak Church.
where a negro revival was in progress.
The constable of the district gathered
a posse and started to investigate.
Lott was apprised of their approach
In advance and was ready for trouble.
when the posse reached Live Oak
Church.
The posse was about 100 yards from
the church building when ambushed.
and the negroes opened fire from two
or three directions. The constable
bade his men pay no attention to the
firing. as it was from a distance. He
said all he wanted to do was to cap—
ture Lott.
When the restaurant where Lott
had his goods was reached. the posse
was fired on by Lott and nogroes who
were concealed behind the counters.
The firing became general between the
posse and the restaurant crowd. and
also between whites and negrocn all
over the ground.
At this juncture tho posse deemed it
necessary to fire the Lott restaurant.
In order to dislodge his gang. Lott
rushed out when the torch was applied
and discharged a double barrsllcd shot
gun into the crowd of whites. Twenty-
two buck-bot took effect in the side of
Joe Seals. one of tine posse. from the
effects of which he died. A negro who
followed Lott shot arman named idl-

He was shocked to death by 1.700 volts

majority of murderers In this state.

doing what few of them have done—
talking to the witnesses while he was
being strapped in the chair.
"I killed the president because he
was an enemy of the good people—of
'the good working people. I am not
sorry for my crime."
These were his words as the guards
hurried him into the chair.
A moment later mumbling through
the half adjusted face straps he said:
"I am awfully sorry i could not see my
father."
Csolgosz retired last night at 10
o'clock and slept so soundly that when
Warden Mead went to the cell shortly
before 5 o'clock this morning the
guard inside had to shake Caolgosn to
awaken him. He sat up on the side of
his cot and made no reply to the war-
don's greeting of "Good morning.”
The prison official took from his
Docket the death warrant and read it
slowly and distinctly to the assassin.
who hardly raised his eyes during the
perfunctory ceremony.
Just as the warden stopped away
from the cell door Czolgosz called to
him and said: "I would like to talk
with the superintendent."
The warden responded:
be down presently."
Then the condemned man rolled ov-
or on hib cot. apparently anxious to
sleep again.
At 5:16. however. the guard brought
to him a pair of dark trousers. with the
left leg slit up as to allow the free up-

up and put these on. which he did.
Contrary to the usual custom he was
given a new pair of sheets. When dress-
ed he lay down on the cot again and
in this attitude. Superintendent Cbllins
founda him at 5:30, when he went
rlowu to visit him.
The superintendent stood In front
of the steel bars and when the guard
had called Czolgosz's attention. he
said:

and bacon and he ate with quite a good
deal of relish. While he was partak-

the long south corridor.

that you keep your seats and preserve
