He also telegraphed to Major Simons, the engincer officer sta- tioned at Buffalo, ssking him to report the facts at the earliest possible moment. the station as | | Army an@ Navy Prepare. Conferences were held between A-ting Secretary Hackett and General Gilte pie in reference to any joint steps which the army and navy might be called upon to take. Hoth of these officials, General Gillespie and Mr, Hackett, were completely over- whelmed by the sad news, but they main- tainad thelr composure and were fully pre- pared to meet any call upon them. They dispatched Immediately messages of in- quiry to Buffalo and each as a matter of | form sent their respective secretaries word of the shooting of the president in order that they might have the benefit of any di- rection either Secretary Root or Secretary Long was prepared to offer In addition to the marines representing the navy the United States army s woll ropresented at Buffalo and at nearby Fort Niagara and with the tronps thus at his disposal General Gillesple says he is fully prepared to meet any call that may be made upon him. General Gillespie finally got into com- munieation with Secretary Root and As- sistant Secretary Sanger and as a result of the telephonic talk he proceeded to use wome of the forces at his disposal. He telegraphed an order to Fort Foster, New York, to bave an officer and a squad of men proceed immediately to the hospital where the president is Iylng to act as a guard. General Gillesple telegraphed Vice Presi- dent Reosevelt at Burlington, Vt, and it is presumed that it was his message that started the vice president In haste for Buffalo. During the early evening a con- ference held at the War department of such army officers as could be gathered at short notice by General Gillesple. He informed them that he had communicated with General Brooke and that the general would start Immediately for Buffalo, where he Is expected In the early wmorning to take personal charge of all arrangements made for the guarding of the presidential household.

The conference decided that there little more that the War department could undertake at this time. Surgeon General Van Reypan of the navy, who came down to the Navy department, called at Gen eral Gillespie's office and discussed the case from a medical point of view, took occasion to mention Dr. Nichoals Senn of Chicago as an expert of high grade in such cases of injury and the suggestion was promptly telegraphed to Buffalo that his services be secured.

He procceded at once to his suburban home and was in- formed at once of the disaster. He sought all the particulars and placed himself in any service that might be required of him, informing Acting Secretary Hackett of that fact. The admiral found himself unable to express his feelings at the news and all that could be extracted from him was that he was plunged in gricf too deep for utterance at this time. Ho sald that he could not mow express an opinion as to the effect that the calamity might have on the court of inquiry or even whether it xould result in the postpone- ment of the appioaching sitting Owing to the absence of many of the dip- lomatic corps at Bufialo and of many others at the various summer resorts, there wery only two representatives of this body in Washington today. Minister Wu was one of these, and when scen tonight he was a picture of distress. He realized keenly t tremendous indebtedness ioa to President McKinley's kindly Impulies in its great trials in the last y and was shocked at the great calamity that had befallen him. He sald that he d not conceive of any sort of motiy: such an inex- cusable deed and he was severe in his de- nunclation of anarchists, Wu Wonders Why. He nsked why they were permitted to hatch such plots as this in a republc vhere the peopls could readily change thelr president if they were in the slightest degree diseatisfied with his official con- duct <r his private personality. In con- clusion, almost with tears, he expressed the hobe that the president would speedily recover, The other diplomatic representative in Wasbington was Senor Herran, represent- ing the. government of tho United States of Columbja,, ‘He also was greatly’. dis- tressed, and affirmed that his whole coun: try would sympathize with the president in this moment of pain. He also could not understand, ho sald, why such a benevolent character as President McKinley should be thus assaulted by one of the people and he declared It was time that the anarchist should be suppressed.

The crowd surged forward regardless of consequences. Men shouted and fought, women screamed and children cried. Some of those nearest the doors fled from the edifice in fear of a stampede, while hun- dreds of others from the outside struggled blindly forward in the effort to penetrate the crowded building and solve the mystery of excitement and panic which every| moment grew and swelled within the con- | gested interior of the edifice.

Even those who attended the presi- dent came out of it with blanched faces, trembling limbs and beating hearts, while their brains throbbed with a tumult of con- fMeting emotions which could not be clari- fied into a lucid narrative of the events as| they really transpired | Struggle, Victim the Only Calm Man.

After the first shock of the assassin's shot he retreated a step, then, as the detectives leaped upon his assailant, he turned, walked steadily to a chair and eeated himself, at the same time removing his hat and bowing his head in his hands In an instant Secretary Cortelyou and President Milb were at his side. His walstcoat was hurriedly opened, the presi- dent meanwhile admoniehing those about him to remain calm and telling them not to be alarmed. “But you are wounded,” cried his secre- tar. et me examine.” No, I think not,”" answered the presi- dent. “I am not badly hurt, I assure you." Nevertheless his outer garments wers tasiily loosened and when a trickiiag strea:n of erimson was seen to wind its v down hig breast, spreading its tell-tale stain over the white surface of the linen, their worst tears were confirmed. A force of exposition guards were on the scene and an effort was made to clear the bullding. By this time the crush was ter- rific. Spectators crowded down fhe stair- ways from the galleries, the crowd on thae floor surged forward toward the rostrum while, despite the strenuous efforts of police and guards the throng without struggled madly to obtain admission. Ansal rried to Safety. The rresident’s assailant in the mea time had been hustled by exposition guards to the rear of the building, where he was held while the building was cleared and | later he was turned over to Superintendent Bull of the Buffalo police department, who | took the prisoner to No. 13 police static n| and afterward to police headquarters. As | s00n as the crowd In the Temple of Music | ad been dispersed sufficiently the president was removed in the automobile ambulance | and taken to the exposition hospital, where | an examination was made. | The best medical skill was summon and within a brief period several of Puffa- lo's best known practitioners were at the patlent’s side. The president reiained the full exercise of his faculjies until placed on the operat- ing table and subjected to an anesthetic, Upon the first examination it was ascer- tained that one bullet had taken effect in the right breast just below the nipple, causing a comparatively harmless wound. The other (ook effect in the abdor en, about four inches below the left nijple, four inches to the left of the navel, and about on a level with it. Upon arrival at the exposition hospltal the e bullet was probed for. The walls of the abdomen were opened, but the ball was not located. The incision was hastily closed and after a hasty consulta- tion it was decided to remove the patient to the heme of President Milburn. This was done, the automobile ambulance being used for the purpose. At the Milhy Arrived at the Milburn residenc: sons suve the medical attendants, nurses and the officials immediately concernad were excluded and the task of probing for the bullet which had lodged in the abdomen was begun by Dr. Roswell Parke. When the news of the crime was telephoned to the home of President Milburn, where Mrs McKinley was resting, immediate steps were taken to spare her the shock of a premature statement of tha occurience be- fore the condition of the president was ascertalned. Guards were stationed and no one was permitted to approach the house. When It was decided to remove the presi- dent from the exposition hospital to the Milburn residence the Lews was broken to Mrs. McKinley as gertly as might be. She bore the shock remarkably well and displayed the utmost fortitude, Pablie Will Be Kept Informed, At §:30 the representative of the Asso- clated Press was admitted to the Milburn mansion, where Secretary Cortelyou gave him the official bulletin prepared Ly the physicians. Secretary Cortelyou said that a tele- graph office would be established at once in the Milburn residence and bulletins giv- ing the public the fullest informatior pos- sible would be issued at short intervals, At the Milburn residence were Secretary Wilson, President Milburn, Director Gen- eral Buchanan, Dr. Rixey and Secretary Cortelyou. Telegrams poured in by the hundreds and Secretary Cortelyou was kept bury replying to them. Two stenographers with thelr typewriters were placed in the parlor. While the wounded president was being borne from the exposition to the Milburn | residence between rows of onlookers with bared heads a far different spectacle was eing witnessed glong the route of his assailant’s journey from the scene of his crime to police headquarters. The trip was made so quickly that the prisoner was landed safely within the police station and the doors closed before any one was aware of his presence.

By thls time there were probably 50,000 people assembled in the vicinity of Pearl, Seneca and Erfe streets and the Terrace, The crowd was so great that it becam: neceseary to rope off the entire street in front of police headquarters and at a late hour tonight the police were, still patroling the streets in the neighborhood in squads of three or four, . Inside the station house were assembled District Attorney Penney, Superintendent of Police Bull, Captain Roagan of the First pracinet and other officials. The prisoner | at first proved quite communicative, 8o much so, in fact, that little dependence could be placed in what he sald. He first gave his name as Fred Nieman, said his home was in Detroit and that he had been Buffalo about a week.

These conclusions, he declares, he reache through the teachings of Finwa Goldman. Precautions Not Lacking. It wau learned tonight from an authori- | tative source that the greatest precautions had been (aken to guaid against the pos.i- bility of any such occurrences as tran spired today. Not only were the services of (he local police and detective forces em- ployed to the fullest extent, but speclally detailed men have accompanied the presi- dential party In all its travels since in- auguration day, and in addition to this the extra precaution was taken upon the oc- casion of the president’s visit to the Pan- American exposition of having with him | three United States trecsury secret service | men of long experlence and proven ability. In fact, to such an extent has this matter of the president’s personal safety been car- ricd by those responsible for his welfare that it bas glven rise to some criticiam. Upoin his visit to the exposition it was felt by those surrounding him that the presi- dent was liable to greater chances of danger than 1s usual even upon his travels, owing to the great crowds, the diversified char- acter of the people assembled and the neces- sity for direct contact with the crowds. For these reasons the strict precautions above mentioned were resorted to. President Too Confiding. The president himeelf has always been averse to any such protections and the sight of officers of the law constantly near his person has been distasteful. He has al- ways insisted in all his visits to various cities there should be at least ono public reception where he could be brought face to face with the public and glve those who —_— UNNATURAL FLESH Reduced by Leaving Of Coftee and Unini Postum Food Coffee, “I have used coffee many years; in fact, ever since T was & child, until & few months ago 1 became satisfied that it hurt me— caused the miserable drowsy fecling and | the bloated condition of my body.

It was confirmed by another message a moment later. The vice president seemed stunne! by the news, put his hands to his head, then exclaimed: My God!'" Those around him were immediately in- formed of the tragedy and ft was decided to announce it to the company of 1,000 to hear Coloncl Roosevelt speak at the annual outing of the Vermont Fish and Game league. Senator Proctor made the announcement and many persons in the audience burst iuto tears. A later bulletin was received stating that the president was resting quietly and that the chances were favorable for his recovery, “Good," exzlaimed the vice president and his face lighted up. He showed his pleas- ure by eagerly announcing the good news to the assembly. The vice president then left immediately on the yacht Elfriday and came to this city, having directed that ail| messages be held here for him. The yacht was to have gone to Arrow Point, where a special train was walting for the vice president, but the train was sent on to Burlington and was there when the yacht came into the harbor at S:15. President Clement of the Rutland rallroad placed the train at the disposal of the vice president and made arrangements to take him on it to the scene of the tragedy. Colonel Roosevelt was asked at the wharf for a statement for publication and said: 80 inexpressibly grieved, shocked and hor- rified that I can say nothing." He boarded the train and left for Buffulo. RUTLAND, Vt.

LINCOLN, Sept. 6.—(Special Telegram.)— Governor Savage tonight sent the following telegram Mrs. Willlam McKinley, Buffalo: people of the state of Nebraska keenly sympathize with you in vour sad afficti nd are earnestly supplicating Divine Provi- to spare the life of our fllustrious EZRA P. BAVAGE, Governor. W. J. Bryan made the following comment on the hooting of the. president: The ident 18 a shock to the entire country and he and his wife are .the reciplents of uni- versal sympathy. The dispatches say the. shot was fired by an Insane man and it is hoped that this is true, for while it Is a terrible thing for a president to be the vietim of the act of a maniac, it would ba even worse for him to be fired upon by a sane person prompted by malice or re- venge. In a republic, where the people ct their officlals and can remove them, there can be no excuse for a resort to vio- lence. If our president were in constant | tear of plots and conspiracles we would so0on sink to the level of those nations in which force is the only weapon of the gov- ernmeat and the only weapon of the gov< ernment’s enemies.” Immediately after receiving the news of the shooting Mr. Bryan sent a brief “mes- sago to the president expressing sympathy and the hope that he would recover from the Injurles. He is Inclined to belleve that tho shot was fired by an insane man and | not by an anarchist. He said tonight that I‘ if later reports showed that the attemptod assassination was the work of an anarchist he would discuss the crime further in The Commoner. Governor Savage heard the news while watching the races at the State falr. The announcement was made in front of the amphitheater by Starter McCreary of Hast- ings and immediately a gloom fell upon the assemblage. The speed program was finished, but there was no more cheering after the news had been given. Discussing the shooting tonight Governor Savage sald: “If the assallant of Presi- dent McKinley be an anarchist and carried into execution a degree of his order to take the life of our chlef executive, as soems apparent, then he should be made the subject of swift and condign punigh- ment, nor should there be a pause on the part of organized soclety until the last semblance of anarchy s blotted out. In my judgment the American pecple have been too tolerant In dealing with this evil, vet 1 shall not be surprised if this last act awakens them to the importance of prose- cuting a relentless campalgn against this hydra-headed soclal monster.” A fakir started out on the streets tonight to use the attempt on the president’s life as an advertisement and he narrowly es- caped being mobbed by an enraged crowd of people who gathered about him.
