Brother Talks of Czolgosz
Mike Declares Leon Ought to Be Strung Up for Attempting
to Kill the President.
Akron, O., Sept. 10.—[Special.]—“He
ought to be strung up.”
That is the manner in which Mike Czolgosz,
brother of Leon Czolgosz, the would-be murderer of President McKinley,
spoke today regarding his brother.
Mike Czolgosz’s presence at Barberton
was discovered today. He secured employment there three weeks ago,
but his name was put down as Mike Zolden. Czolgosz evidently did
not care how his name was corrupted, and it was only by chance that
his real name was discovered.
Mike Czolgosz did not care to talk
much regarding his brother, and claimed to know nothing regarding
the anarchistic sentiments held by Leon. He admitted, however, that
he himself had been a Socialist, but asserted that he had repudiated
the doctrines of that sect.
“I do not believe Leon shot the President
because of any affiliation with Anarchists,” he said. “He must have
been paid by some one to commit the deed.”
