Only 26 witnesses will be present in
is executed. Warden Mead, of the pris
on, has sent to Superintendent Collins
the requests he has received for permis
tion to attend the clectrocution,
1000 in all. The law limits the number
of witnesses, and the superintendent will
decide who they will be,
Statements to the effect that Czolgosz
is in a continuous state of collapse and
that he breaks down and weeps every
time anything is said to him concerning
the electrocution are denied. Superin
tendent Collins had a talk with the con-
demned man some days ago and at that
time Czolgosz said he knew he had t
die. He expressed no fear as to the
electrocution, but said he would not care
o go outside the prison, for he believed
the people would kill him.
Since his confinement in Auburn prison
several thousand letters have been re-
ceived for hin at the prison, as well as
a large number of express packages
containing flowers and fruit. The let-
ters, flowers and fruit have not reached
the condemned man... The flowers and
fruit have bren sent by church societies,
as have a number of letters consoling
him in his last moments. Other letters
have come from cranks who have written
about the species of terture to which
they would put him if they had the exe
cution of justice in his case. It is stat
ed that it would cause surprise if the
na.nes of senders of fruit and flowers
were made public.
The State prison department has pur-
sued a uniform policy in regard to Czol-
gosz. An effort has been made to pre-
veat the murderer from gaining any
notoriety while awaiting death and to
surround him by as perfect an
from the world as possibl

Washington, D. C. (Special) When
Congress meets in December one of the
first acts will be the introduction of a
bill by Senator Foraker to pay Mrs. Mc-
Kinley a year's salary, or $50,000, on her
late husband's account. This will be
following a precedent established in the
cases of Presidents Lincoln and Garfield.
At first it was agitated to pay her the
salary of the unexpired term of Presi-
dent McKinley, but it was decided to
follow precedent, especially as Mrs, Mc-
Kinlev has no children. Tt will be re-

Washington (Special).—The Depart-
Agriculture announces that the
most important estimates of the

of either of the two preceding years
The estimates follow :

chester bushels
The American Agricultural Depart-
ment withholds its opinion as to the de-
gree in which the world’s crop has been
approximated in any of these estimates
until a considerably larger number of
official returns is available
The official Hungarian estimate says
the crop exceeds last year's by 200881,-
ooo bushels of 60 pounds, or by 212.430.
ooo Winchester bushels. According to
Beerbohm the excess over last year's
crop is 200,200,000 bushels of 60 pounds,
is
