Sec- retary Hay had given directions wha should be done and Acting Chief Martin and other employes, as soon as they re- ceived official confirmation of the news, immediately sent cablegrams to each and every United States Embassador and Minister, or to the Charge where the chief diplomatic officlals were absent from their posts, notifylng them that President McKinley died at 2:15 o’clock this morning in Buffalo and instructing them to inform the Governments to which they were accredited. There were no details in the message— nothing but its brief announcement—and | they were identical in language, except in the names of the persons addressed. The Embassadors and Ministers were expected to communicate the information in turn to the United States Consular of- ficers within the limits of their po: In cases of countries like Austral and Canada, where the United States Govern- ment is not represented in a diplomatic capacity, messages of like character nt to the United States Consuls 11, who were to repeat them to the Con- suls. The original message was signed Secretary Hay, Mr. Babcock, his pri secretary, having taken it from the Stz Department to the Secretary’s home for that purpose. This was all that the De- partment of State could do to-night. ~As on as possible a praclamation will fssued, announcing the President’s demise to the United States and the world at large and directing the closing of the executive departments and navy vards and army posts as a mark of mourning; but this proclamation requires the signas ture of President Roosevelt and it must be countersigned also by Secretary Hay. Arrangements have been made by which by | Becretary Hay will meet acting Secretary of War Gillespie and acting Secretary of the Navy Hackett in the State Depart- ment in the morning for the purpose of promulgating the necessary orders of the three departments.

SORROW FOLLOWS FEELING OF HOPE Incidents of the President’s Last Day Which Ends in Despair. MILBURN HOUSE, BUFFALO, Sept. 14.—The President’s last day, which ended in despair, was begun in hope. The ills that came on Friday afternoon when the organs of digestion refused to handle the solid food that had been taken earlier in the day had seemiingly been overcome by midnight and when the new day came it found the President relieved and resting. Hope, that had suddenly dropped om the high place which it had held, be to revive. The healing of the wounds progressed favorably, general condi were In the main quite satisfactory and the immediate future of the seemed to hold no threat. The physicians who had been in almost constant attendance during the night parted, and the watch | in the sick room was reduced. Suddenly there was a failure of the heart which for several days had been manifesting signs, of weakness, and (ne President sank toward unconsciousne This was at 2 o'clock in the morni There w an immediate restoratives and a general call went to the absent physicians and nurses. D talis, strychnine and saline solution we administered to the patient, but th was no immediate response to the trea ment, The physicians admitted that ne was desperately ill, and Secretary Cortel you decided to send for the rela application of ut s and close friends of the President, Vice Pres dent and the members of the Cabin Those within reach were called by tel phone or messenger and telegrams were rushed to those who had left the city. T first of the messages were sent out at 2:30 o'clock, and within half an hour the Milburn house began to flll again. The serious condition of the President and the general call sent out gave rise to a general feeling of alarm that was never again allayed. Desperate measures were resorted to in order to stimulate the heart and the sinking spell was over by o'clock. It was decided to continue the treatment, and the physicians laid thefr greatést hope on weathering the day. It was agreed that if the wounded man could be carried for twenty-four hours his chanees would be very favorable, for the wounds were healing splendidly. It was decided to summon Dr. W. W. Johnston of Washington and Dr. E. G. Janeway of New York, heart specialists, and telegrams were hurried out asking that they come at once. Before dawn a dezen of the relatives and friends of the President arrived at the Milburn house. They assembled in the drawing room, where they waited for tidings from the sick room above them. The physiclans assured them that the President had a nxhung chanco for his life, and to the hope that In the end victory would be his they clung all day. 4! | | | | Would you weep if a commor NATION INOF HER TRIUNPH Emma Goldman Not Sorry for McKinley.
