EL RENO, OKLAHOMA, SEPTEMBER 12 1901.
NO. 331,
BANG! BANG!
Claude Hensley Shoots Fred
Conrad.

Wound Not Serious.
Between 11 and la o’clock last
night live shots rang out and startled
tl^e city. As a result Fred Conrad
lies at the home of Miss Devine, cor-
ner Admire and Rogers streets, suffer-
ing from a slight wound in the sida.
From what can be learned the
wounded man, and from friends of
Officer Hensley, Conrad had been
placed under arrest at a re-
sort in the Hats for carrying a gun.
On the way to the calaboose he broke
and ran. The officer tired two shots
in the ground to halt Conrad, and an
employe of the electric plant, w io was
in the vicinity of the shooting, tired
two more.
Near the home of Miss Devine, Con-
uad was overtaken and after the offi-
cer had him down the fifth shot was
tired, inflicting a slight wound in the
side.
Officer Hensley claims that the shot
was accidentally tired, the gun being
discharged as he fell over a tub or bar-
rel.
Conrad says lie was struck ^several
times before the shot was fired.
Mayor Hensley says he’ll have the
matter Investigated thoroughly.
It is certainly fortunate for every-
body that so little damage hae been
done.
With regard to striking Conrad, the
officer positively denies the, statement
excepting that when he found |the
man’s clothing on tire from the tlash
he knocked the tire out. Mr. Hen-
sley is congratulating himself because
the accident occasioned so little dam-
age.
ASKS FAIRNESS.
Buffalo, Sept. 11. —For the llret
time since his would-be assassin was
taken from his sight, President Mc-
Kinley yesterday mentioned Czolgos/..
He asked what had been done with hie
assailant, and was told that he was
being held a9 a prisoner here.
"He must have been crazy,’’ said
President McKinley. ‘‘I never saw
the man until he approached me at the
reception.”
"He is an anarchist,” the president
was told.
"Too bad, too bad,” was the reply,
"I trust, though, that he will be
treated with all fairness.’’

SENATOR P/IASON
ON ANARCHY.
In respouse to a request from Reg-
ister S. S. Price, of Oklahoma City, ks
to his views on the proper course to be
pursued for tee suppression of an
archy, Seuator Mason, > of Illinois,
writes as follows.
“I am in favor of a national law
which maxes the teachings of an-
archy, which is just another name for
the teaching of treason, a crime. My
first impressions were the president
had been shot by an insane man, but
his statement makes it clear that he
was a perfectly sane and that he is fol-
lowing teachings of the anarchist and
did as he did by reason of his teach- Sl’r*nff9 eXl ursion
ings, If a school to teach our boys
larceny or arson were opened, we i
would soon find a way to rid our-
selves of such schools. The school for
Frida y | anarchy is a school for treason, and
it must go from the United States now
and forever.
"William E. Mason.”

CONFESSES.
t New York, Sept. 11.—A special to
the Herald fro n Buffalo, says:
Czolgosz has confessed to the police
that his attempt upon the life of the
president was the result of a conspir-
acy in which many beside himself had
a part. He has refused to mention
any names except that of Emma Gold-
man, but papers are in existence,
which, if discovered, will lay bare the
entire conspiracy and will result in
wholesale arrests, followed by pros-
ecutions.
