In China Death Would Be Czolgosz’s Fate
SYRACUSE, Sept. 10.—Mr. Wu Ting
Fang, the Chinese Minister who took part in the ceremonies of Diplomats’ Day
at the State Fair here to-day, said of the attempted assassination of President
McKinley: “It was horrible, horrible.”
Speaking of the appropriate punishment for the
perpetrators of such attempts, Mr. Wu said: “In my country that wretch Czolgosz
would receive the extreme penalty,—death by slow torture.”
