Roosevelt at 3 o'clock Tuesday convened hi* first Cabinet meeting held in Washington. At this meeting the President asked the members of Mr. McKinley's Cabinet to retain their respective portfolios throughout his term, and announced that ii* administration would follow the wlicy outlined by President McKinley n his Bupffalo speech. After the obsequies over the late President the Cabinet, at President Roosevelt’s request, assembled at the residence of Commander Cowles, where the President is staying until after the funeral,

principally for th

their pew Chief _ •in their respective departments. The President then addressed his advisers

J to answer questions repeatedly asked of him by the Judge and District Attorney Penney as to whether he had counsel or wanted 'ounsel. The District Attorney then iggested that as Czolgosz refused to _ iswcr. counsel should be assigned. Judge Emery assigned Hon. Loran L. Lewis and Hon. Robert C Titos, former ^Supreme Court justices, of thia city, whose names had be Co suggested by the Erie County Bar Association. The trial will begin next Monday. District Attorney Penney presented the evidence in the case to the grand jury. Aside from the surgeons and physicians, no witnesses were sworn other than those who were in the Temple of Music and witnessed the shoot-

ing.

At 4.15 P. XL. just exactly ten days after the shooting, the jury voted unani-

mously to indict Czolgosz.

Then ensued a wait of an hour, but the rumor that the murderer was to be arraigned before Judge Emery spread — J in a short time the courtroom was rded. The prisoner was brought'ig kled to a detective and another detective held his other amj. Assistant Superintendent Cusack marched in front and a number of patrolmen behind. When Czolgosz was taken before the court the people in the courtroom made a rush for him. byt were com-

pelled to resume their scats.

Czolgosz is of medium height, of fairly good'build and has light curly hair, but a ten days' growth of beard on his' face gives, him an unkempt appearance. Apparently he feigned insanity, net stupidity. His glance roamed about, but nis eyes were always downcast. Not once did he look the County Prosecu-

tor or the Judge in the face.

"Czolgusz, have you got a lawyer? Do yon wish a lawyer? You have been indicted for murder in the first degree. Do you want a lawyer to defend rou? Czolgosz. .look at me and answer. District Attorney Penney fired these aestions in turn at the prisoner, his >ice rising with each-succeeding question, but Czolgosz stubbornly wefnsed
