Parents Are Russian Poles
Cleveland, O., Sept. 11.—According to the statement
of the canvasser of the Cleveland Directory Company, the parents of Leon Czolgosz,
the would-be assassin of President McKinley, are Russian Poles. The canvasser
has covered the foreign settlement in Newburg for a number of years and he says
he knows of what he speaks.
“In 1896,” said the canvasser, “the Czolgosz family
of to-day gave their names as Czolgowski.”
