In it Judge Thornell directs the former administrator, William F. Sieden topt, to pay Immedlately over to the pres- ent administrator, J. E. F. McGee, $11,931.13 The decree also holds that Mary W. Siedentopf, in her life time, by her acts in connection with said estate, elected to take under the will of William Sieden- topf, and that by such acts she was barred trom claimiug dower, and that dower cin- not be set aside, of the lands belonging 10 the estate in favor of William F.

ELECTROCUTION FOR CZ0LGOS2Z Coroner's Acceptance of Physiclans' Statement Indicates Course to Be Pursncd with Assnssin, MILBURN HOUSE, FALO, Sept. 14 No coroner's iuguest was held. The cor- oner simply viewed the president's body this morning and later gave a certificate in accordance with the result of the au- topsy, which declared that death was un- avoldable by any surgical or medical treat- ment and was the direct result of bullet wounds. The wretch who plunged the world fnto sorrow will therefore pay the penalty of his crime by death In the elec- | trocution chair. Murder in the first degrec will be the charge. The report of the autopsy has again | given rise to a theory hinted at a day or | two after the president was shot that Czol- | gosz, in order to insure the accomplish- ment of his purpose, poisoned the bullets which he fired. The gangrene found in the path of the bullet is thought to be strong evidence In this view by Dr. Wasdin, one of the consulting physiclans. Dy. Wasdin Is considered an expert of high standing in the Marine hospital service | Examination to De Made. A chemical and bacteriologleal examina- tion of the remaining bullets in the piatol will, however, confirm or demollsh this | theory and such an examination will un- | doubtedly be made at once by the authori- | ties. But whether this theory is estab- | lished or not, it seems probable hat the | result of the autopsy will glve rise to a | medical controversy. The gangrened con- ditlon of the Interior wounds, which the physiclans thought were healed, and the fact that the physicians announced posi- tively that the kidney which the bullet tore was uninjured, were o contrary to | what was expected by the public after the | statements of the physiclans during the | progress of the cage that discussion seems | | inevitable. The polsoned bullet theory might, of course, account for the sudden wand puzzling reversal of President McKin- ley's condition just when the physiclans laid such great stress upon his Improved condition and ghve such strong hope of his recovery. The bullet itselt was not found, although an hour's search was made for it. The X-ray apparatus was not at hand for the use of the physiclans and the location of the bullet fs unknown, Governor B. B. Odell of Albany had a long conference tonight with Districl At- | torney Penney of Erie relative to the most | expeditious methods of trying and convict- ing the murderer. Mr. Penney told the governor that the case was already pr pared for the grand jury and would be pre- sented to that boly on Monday or Tuesduy of mext week. The grand jury would make a presentation to County Judge Emery, who would at once assign counsel for the de- tense. The main question of discussion be- tween the governor and the district at- torney was whether or mot the governor should appoint an extraordinary term of the supremo court to try the prisoner in- | stead of allowing the case to go before any of the judges of that department. Mr. Pen- ney's idea was that the governor should | uppoint an extraordinary term and select a speclal judge. A list of the judges was | presented to the governor and up to quite | a late hour he had not yet decided as to which course he would pursue, or, if he determifned to have a speclal term, as to which judge he should designate.
