r t, - NO DELAY IN TJ GUILTY OF MURDER IN FIRST DEGREE SENTENCED TO BE EXECUTED OCTOBER 28, The trial of Leon F. Cr.lgoez alias Fred Nieman was begul hi the city of Buffalo on Monday, Sept. 23, and was ended at 4 o’elork on Tuesday afternoon, Sept. 24. President Mc Kinley was shot on the Gth of iiiep- tember, and his death resulted from the wounds inflicted on the 14lh of September. The wheels of justice moved swiftly. The trial of the assassin consumed eight hours and . twenty-six minutes, and covered a period of only two days. Practically all of this time was occu pied by the prosecution prcsent'ng a case so clear, so conclusive that even ha 1 the prisoner entered a plea <>(' in sanity it is doubtful if the jury would have returned a verdict different from ♦.he oue rendered. The announcement made by the at- * irneys for Cozlgosz that the eminent alienists summoned by the Krie Bar association and by the district attorney to examine Czolgosz and to deteimiue his exact mental condition, had de clared him.to be |>crfectly sane, de stroyed the only stage of a defence that Judges l.<ewi* and Titus could Have pill together.

The prnst-t u lion waa undvd v^ry abruptly hy (hr District Attorney, and the" (MHBCI t. a trial. In the case of murder, he must have a trial. You sat thefe and lis tened to the defendant’s plea of guilty when he was arraigned at the opening of this term, but the law of our Stile will not permit him to plead guilty to such a crime as this. The law is so careful of l^e rights of its citizens that it will not pei mil. a man to plead guilty to this crime of murder, so that, even after be had conceded his guilt iu this case, it was incumbent upon ihe court to insist that the trill should proceed, and that the people should' establish beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant was guilty of the crime charged against him. There are in our country indivi duals, not, I hope, in any very large number, but we know they are scat tered all over our country, who think that in a case like this or even in charges of much less* degree^ it is en tirely proper that the case should t>e disposed of bv lynch or mob law. We can hardly take up a paper without we learn that in some j art of this five ami md 'penitent eoutiwy some man has been murdered on the suspicion or be tirf that he was guilty of some' er.me.

Not that lie c^ied anything for the negro, but he wanted to maintain the law giving every man a trial and to put down mob violence. “ This trial hefti is a great object les son to the world. Here is a case where a man has stricken down the beloved President of this country, in broad daylight, in the preseuce.of hundreds of thousands oL spectators. If there was ever a case that would excite the an ger, the wrath of those who saw it, this was one, and yet, under tip advice of the President, ‘Let no man hurt him,’ he was taken, contined in our prison, indicted, put upon trial here and the case is soon to he submitted to you, as to whether he is guilty of the crime charged against him. That, gentle men, speaks volumes in favor of the city of Buffalo. “’Here was a man occupying an ex alted position, a man of irreproachable character; he was a man who had come haulage from forest to factory and back again to its market, which might be within sight of the place where it was cut.

As workmen they are generally order ly, tractable and contented. It sur- thcmselves so quickly and naturally to conditions so different from those to which they were born. In this class of labor the South has a safe basis for an industrial development as extensive and as vailed as its resources permit. Like the cotton mills, the furniture factories of tbe South have been ex ceedingly profitable. So far as I could learu theie have been no conspicuous exceptions to the rule. M< st of them are paying regulat dividends of from 10 to 2.) per cent, per annum aud some have done much better than this. The stocks of. these mills are mrely purchasable, ouly cotnii g into the mar ket when estates are divided and then being taken at high premiums by those desirous of increasing their previous holdings. The investment in enter prises of this class will average about $20,000 for all the plants in operation. The average for ihe cotton mills is necessarily much higher. The busk ness is oaa which promises a rapid development and diversification. MR. CLBVBLAND’S TRIBUTE. cr- Wi hat w. ft jbVcl 1 that *u» h I meet, "Zlliniiill, I oar ni IV ■ fully sufe dcx.

Judge Iicwis said that the sudden close of the case against Gxolgosz wa* a surprise to him and his colleague. They had no witness to call fur the defense. He asked the court that he be allowed to address tbe jury atouce. The court consented aud the venerable jurist began an address that will long be remembered by those who heard it. Judge,Lewis said : “Gentlemen of the Jury : A calamity has fallen upon this nation through tbe act of this man, but the question is whether his act was the act an in sane mitn. If an insane man, it is not murder, and he should be acquitted of that charge. He would then, of course, be transferred to an insane asylum. “ Much discussion has occurred in our midst and has been called to my attention as to the propriety of any de fense being interposed in this case. Many letters have been received by me since I was assigned with my associate to defend this man, questioning the propriety of a defense being attempt ed. You gentlemen know, perhaps, how Judge Titus aud myself came into this case. The position was not sought by us, but we appear here in pe.ffor mance of a duty which we thought tie volved upon us, notwithstanding it was an exceedingly disagrreable one “ The defendants’ counsel appear here, because, under our system of jurisprudence, no man can be placed •on trial for the high crime of murder, the penalty of which, under the law is death, without he haa tbe assistance of counsel. The court has the power to ' leaignate counsel, and it is the duty of the counsel thus designated to appear in the case unless they can make some reasonable exeme and succeed id being jreheved of the duty. “ The defendant, no matter how seri ous a crime be has com mil* ed, is ea- titled, under the laws, to the benefit of life tak i whittf 111 1(1.

I remember, gentlemen, when l was a young luan living in Auburn studying my profession, the news came that a colored man had gone upon the shores of Owasco lake and there had practically murdered au entire family named Van Ness. The news created intense excitement. The people gathered on the street to hear the news. In the course of the afternoon it was learned that the man, Freeman, had been ai rested and was beiftg brought to the city to he incarcerated. The people upon the streets became more and more excited. They begin to talk about mobbing tbe colored man when he arrived. William H. Seward, who lived then in,that city, appeared upon the street a id counselled modera tion, counselled the people to wait and see whether the mart was really'guilty of the crime or not, and permit him to have a legal trial. But the people pro tested. He was guilty, they said, gnd must be disposed of. Mr. Seward in- insisted -ami-U*»y-^can:e raxed - .I’kik- man in jail. It soon became known that Mr. Seward had volunteered to defend the negro when he was put oh trial and indignation arose against him, but that far-seeing man, that states man, saw that there was an opportuni ty of giving au object lesson to the world as to the proper disposition ol that case, aud for two long months tha. trial went 00 with Seward defending the negro. It occupied some three weeks in obtaining a jury, and 1 sat by during almost the entire proceed . I *inrw3rrar V ■frw y th.»l th* making of all kind* lure for dwelling aud stfilce, the simplest aud plain* si to thcmosl ele gant, has become an important indus try in several of the Southern States So much Rjftiiliou ‘ ha* been attracted to the mauufacluie of cotton goods 1 that the furniture industry ha* deveiop- | ed almost unnoticed. TVUs is du*‘ in part to the fact that the relatively small investment demanded for ilic equip ment of a w<khJ-working shop, a* corn- area with a plant of spindles and looms, has permitted the development to.be made with local capital, aud that the Northern States have very little in terest in tbe business. It does not compare with tbe cotton manufactur ing industry, either in the uumbex of establishments or of capital invested, but it is very profitable, is rapidly- growing and promises a development in tbe near future which will make it of national as well as of local impor tance. Indeed, it may be so consider ed at the present time. When the inspiration*, of progress seized the South, and those with am bition for something better than the idle life of the plantation, which never was half as att:active or luxurious as those who know it only from 'audition boJieve it to have been, began to look about them for ways of making a living more profitable than “making cotton ” with free labor, lumbering in the moun tain districts aud gr< at swamp acres of the South became a business of consid erable. proportions'.

The laud is tcaicely available for farming purposes, so that, with conservative forestry, nature will replace a large part of the annual cut by current growth. This matter should havC attention from the Stales iu which the conservation of their timber wealth is of consequence. Thus far it has been .quite neglected. The labor supply available for the l uruiture factories is drawn from the same class as that of the cotton mills. The latter offer employment to famil ies and are especially attractive to wo men, who prefer them to the barren (arms of the foot hills. They are much less attractive to the unmarried men of this class, as w» U as to those who find it more satisfactury to s.up- [iort their wives and children than to >e iu whole or in pai t supported by them. Furniture making requires a some what higher mechanical intelligence than spinning or weaving. It is man’s work, iu which he docs not compete with women or children, and if he is ambitious and has the natural qualifica tions it offers him a better chance for advancement. Tbe wages of the fur niture factory are somewhat beller than those of the cotton mills, but are still lower than those paid iiTthe North and West.

She waa placed in tbe orphan asylum in Savannah and was cared for by good people until she was 10 yean old, when one day a good lady came in a flna carnage to choose and adopt a child. The orphans were all clad 111 their bast garments and gathered in the grant big company room and after they war* seated the grand lady went round and round talking kindly to one aod anoth er aud after Tong inspection stopped at Caroline aod said, “ 1 will take this one.” The poor girl was alarmed and cried with grief at being separated from those sne had learned to love. The great lady waa the mother of Rev.
