MOST SENTENCED,
Tho Annrchist Editor Will Spend
Another Yenr In Prison Opin
ions of the Court.
By I'.xclinlic Wire from Tlie Associated I'ims.
New York, Oct. 14. .Tohtinn Moist, the
anarchist, was sentenced lo one yenr
In the penitentiary today, In the court
or special sessions, for publlshlm; In
his paper, the Krelhit, nn nlleRed se
ditious article on the day followlnt? the
shooting of the late President MoKln
ley. The article In ritiesllon was entitled,
".Murder Against Murder." In his de
fense, Most claimed that Hit paper eoli
talnlni the article was printed ami
ready for distribution before the presi
dent was shot. Also that It was a quo
tation from an article published tlfty
years and re-publlshett by him tlfteen
years ago. After Imposing the sen
tence, Justice Hinsdale read the opin
ion of the court, In which he said:
"ft Is no answer to the evil nnd
criminal nature of this artk'le to claim
that It was written for the purpose of
destroying crowned heads. it Incul
cates and enforces the Idea that mur
der is the proper remedy to be applied
against rulers. The fact that II was
published fifty years ago and again re
published ahout llfteeu years ago only
emphasizes and gives addeil point to
tins criminality of re-publishing It tit
any time. It shows a deliberate intent
to Inculcate and promulgate the doc
trines of the article. This we hold to
be a criminal act. it is not necessary
to trace any connection In this article
with the assassination of the late
president. Tito offence here in the eyes
of the law is precisely the same as It
the sorrowful event had never occurred.
Tlie murder of the president only
serves to illustrate and Illuminate the
enormity of the crime of the defendant
in teaching his diabolical doctrine."
THE EXECUTION
OP CZOLGOSZ
Government Requested to Send an
Official Representative to
Auburn.
Ily HieliiMie Wire from Ike Associated I'ioh.
Albany, N. Y Oct. 1. Superinten
dent Cornelius V. Coollns will send a.
reiiucst to Secretary of State Hay to
designate an oflbial representative of
the government lo be present at the
electrocution, over '1,000 in all. The
murderer of President Me.Klnley. Only
twenty-six witnesses will be present
in the chamber of death when tlio sen
tence Is executed. Warden Mead of
Auburn prison has sent lo Superinten
dent Collins the requests' he has re
ceived for permission to attend tlie
electrocution, over 1,00 in all. The
law will limit the number of witnesses
and the superintendent will decide
who the witnesses will be. It was stat
ed tit the stale deiiarlment of prisons
today that Czolgosv: has expressed no
ft'.ir as to the electrocution, but he has
said that he would not care to go out
side of the prison fop lie believes that
the people would kill him.
Since his confinement in Auburn
prison several thousand letters have
been received for him at the prison as
well as a large number of express
packages containing Mowers anil fruit.
The letters (lowers or fruit have never
reached the condemned man. The
Mowers and fruit, It Is learned have
been sent by Christian societies as
have a number of letters consoling him
in his last moments. Other letters
have come front cranks who have writ
ten about the species of torture to
which they would imt him if they had
the execution of justice in his cae.
It Is stated, however, that it will be
a matter of surprise If the mimes of
senders of fruit and Mowers were made
iutblle.
The state prison department has pur
sued a uniform policy lu regard to
t'xolgosz, that Is to prevent tho mtit
derer from gaining any notoriety while
awaiting death and to surround him by
as perfect an Isolation front the world
as pus-slsble.

QUICK ACTION NECESSARY
Sscretftry Eddy of the United States
Legation Demanded Retirement of
Turkish Soldiers Diplomatic
Corps nt Constantinople Approves.
No News from Washington.
By I'.u'hiiive Wire fioin The Associated 1'resj.
Constantinople, Oct. II. It has be
come known that tho Turkish com
mander had completed arrangements tn
surround Miss Kllen M. Stone's captors
at noon on Saturday last. Spencer
Kdtly, secretary of the I'tilted States
legation, however, received Information
that further offensive movements on
the part of the troops would result lu
the death of Miss Stone. At. .1 o'clock
on Saturday morning he proceeded to
the residence of the minister of foreign
affairs, Tewtlk Pasha, and demanded
the Immediate retirement of the Turk.
Ish soldiers. This was ordered, and the.
Bulgarian forces followed the Turks'
example. Mr. Eddy's action has the
unanimous approval of the members of
the diplomatic corps, who are con
vinced that efforts to liberate Miss
Stone by force will surely result In her
murder.
Neither Mr. Ilalrd nor Mr. Haskell,
tho missionaries, has yet been able to
get lit touch with tlie brigands in order
to arratiKo as tn the amount of thu
ransom for Miss Stone.
Solia. Oct. II. United States Consul
General Dickinson has received no in
structions, to pay tho ransom for Miss
Kllen Al. Stone. He Is afraid a danger
ous precedent would be created, ac
cording to tho demands of the brigands.
As he is now fully I'onvinced that the
abductors were merely Instruments
acting under tho instigation of former
members of the Macedonian commit
tee he has made strong representations
to the Hulgarlau government, asking
the arrest of these instigators. Should
this be done, hc says. Miss Slnuc would
doubtless be released on payment of a,
moderate indemnity and assurance of
freedom for her captors. Some Mace
donians have already been arrested
here.
London, Oct. 14. Tho Daily Express
has received the following front Vienna:
"Todaroff, Ihe driver who accom
panied Miss Stone when she was kid
napped, has arrived at Sella. He fays
her captors tire Turks. The Bulgarian
police, who are not satlslled with his
statements, are keeping hhu under sur
veillance." Washington, Oct. 14. All that can bo
gained from the state department ofll
eluls respecting the ease of Miss Stone,
the missionary, who Is held by brigands
lu llulgaria. Is that she is alive and
that efforts are continuing for her re
lease. The officials, while declining tn
indicate the nature of the measures
they are pursuing to this end, still havr
hope of ultimate success.
