W. S. bull, of the Buffalo police force, over the long-distance telephone at 10 o'clock this} morning, and obtained from him a statement cf the actual facts in the case. NO DOCUMENTS WERE FOUND. “Are the stories connecting Czolgosz with a widespread con- spiracy to ass ate the President true?” Supt. Bull was asked. “They are pure fakes,” he replied. “Did you find any documents of any kind on Czolgosz connect- ing him with any plot or other movement of Anarchists?” “No, we did not. In fact, we found no papers of any kind on the prisoner.” “Has he made any statement that would implicate others in his attempt to kill the President?” “He has made no such statement to us.” “Have you any evidence that he is connected with Emma Goldman or the other Anarchists under arrest in Chicago ?” SUPT. BULL HAS EVIDENCE. “None of the character described by the press. We have some evidence which we have not made public, and do not pro- pose to.” “Have extradition papers for Emma Goldman been prepared ?” “Tt was the intention of District-Attorney Penney to prepare such papers, and I suppose he has done so. That part of the case is entirely in his hands.” “Will any of the other prisoners held by the Chicago police be extradited ?” “Not at present, at any rate. What may be done with them in the future has not been decided upon.” “Have you any evidence connecting them with the assault on! the President?” “We have not, but I suppose the Chicago police have. in the newspapers We shall depend upon them for evidence.” “What evidence have you against Emma Goldman ?” / i WILLIAM S.
