Applications to Witness the Execution
Auburn, N. Y., Sept. 20.—In the belief that Czolgosz will be executed in Auburn prison more than a hundred persons have made applications to witness the electrocution of the assassin of the president. The first application was received one hour after the president’s death. Every mail adds to the number.
