HICAGO, Sept. 14—Armed with ropes and sticks. and shouting, “Lynch the anarchists!” a mob of 500 men marched to the County Jail at § o'clock to-night and at- tempted to get at the anarchists confined there. Several of the leaders kicked at the door and shouted for admittance, but the arrival of 400 po- | licemen spoiled the plans of the enraged | men.

Special Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, Sept. 14.—The United States Court of Appeals met at 10 o'clock this morning and immediately adjourned out | o of respect to the dead President. In an-| nouncing the adjournment, Justice Mc- Kenna, one of the members of the United States Supreme Court, spoke as follows: Tbe impulses upon which the court grants this motion proceed from an infinite respect | for the deceased President, an infinite sorrow for his death. What more can I say? Presi- dent McKinley needs no eulogy, and what words can express the horror of his assassin- | ation and the pity of it? What words could | express the horror and pity of it even if he bad been a private citizen, and his death was followed only by private consequences, severed only private ties and caused only private griefs? But he was the chief magistrate of this nation, called to that height by the suf- frages of the people, to exercise its duties in | their name and for them; the term of his of- | fice over, his obligation expired, to return to | them, holding no more political power than | the humblest of them—indeed, holding no more political power than the wretched and malig- nant demon whose crime has stunned the world | and overwhelmed it with sorrow; and the won- Germent of that crime is as great as the hor- ror. President McKinley represented no antagon- isms; he stood for no abuse of power; he was §¢he executive of the largest freedom and gov- | = rnment that can be indulged to man. What | ribute and virtue that the magistrate of a | t and free people should possess that he | d not possess? He had purity of character, sbleness of purpose, instant and active sym- pathy with every esire and open aspiration of | his country. He reverenced the people and be- lieved in them. His very virtues marked him for @ victim and gave murder an opportunity. Oh, how monstrous and malignant the doc- trines must be that urged the sacrifice of that great and precious life! Gentlemen of the bar. mark that and remem- ber it. Mark this also, that the President of the United States must be protected from as- sassination. Not only our justice and human- of the jail they were met by Policemen Toban, Ryan and Mullins of the Chicago avenue police station. The crowd filed into Dearborn avenue from Michigan street and the policemen attempted to stop its march, but théy were pushed aside. Then Ryan, Mullins and Toban drew lhslr‘ revolvers and commanded the men to stop. “Lynch the anarchists!” shouted one of the leaders, and a yell of approval went | up from the prisoners in the jall. By this time patrol wagons from Chi- | Halsted ) cago avenue, Larrabee street, street and ntral station, loaded with officers, dashed to the scene. The crowd | had sueceeded in reaching the outer door | of the entrance of the jail, when it was| repulsed by officers headed by Inspectors | Heldelmeier And Kalus. “Push them back!” yelled Inspector Heidelmeier, and a line of officers was formed. The crowd fell back before it and then dispersed. No arrests were made. ‘While the police were battling with would-be lynchers on the outside, the | guards in the jall stood at the emtrance with drawn revolvers.

It we cannot | encircle them with armed guards, let us circle them with Jaw and its severest penalt let us declare him who would break through that charmed circle an enemy to the republic. To provide for that, however, is a future care and duty. Now alone our Sorrow en- ges us, and we mourn the death of one who as as true a gentleman, as noble a character, as devoted a patriot, as great a man as ever occupied or ever will occupy ‘the executive mansion. Judge Willlamt W. Morrow of San Fran- cis a member of the Circuit Court of Appeals, which has been sitting here, said of President Roosevelt: He will make a magnificent President for the wholg, people. As Police Commissioner of New York, Civil Service Commissioner, As- sistant Secretary of the Navy and later a prominent officer in the Spanish war, he has come into close relations with and ‘acquired a thorough knowledge of the different depart- ments of government and_observed the needs of all classes of people. He is especially ac- qguainted in the great West, having mingled freely with our people of the Western States. We must protect our Presidents hy passing laws inflicting capital punishment in cases of attempted assassination. Then the law must be promptly executed. Promptness must be emphasized, for when an assassin is allowed to go from court to court and gain the notoriety he is looking for our present laws become in- effective in deterring crimes of this character. Referring to possible changes President Roosevelt may make in his Cabinet, he believed it likely the: new chief would make some changes, as the relations of a President’s official family were peculiar, and it was only natural that he would de. sire men with whom he was in close per- sonal and official relationship and in whom he reposed the most intimate confi- confiding ers get the benefit—we These prices prevail until N N sl 2 for 5¢ Other stores charge 5¢ 3 package Lyons Tooth Powder Regular asc—we usually charge zoc Williams Shaving Stick A e A repslar ase ariclo that we sell 471 Glycerine Soap 2 for 25¢ A good #oap that sells il weok hale price " or 450— 15¢ I5¢ at these prices You can always save at Owl prices—not only _save but get fresher, purer, better goods.

Dear Sir: In the name of infamous doctrines the re- spected head of our nation has been stricken down by the hand of an assassin. Words fail us to expre: our horror of the bloody deed and the in- human motives that prompted it. Both deserve the execra- tions of every citizen loyal to his country. It is our desire that the Catholic people of this archdiocese should mani- fest in a public way their sen- timents of grief and shame for this dastardly act, accom- panied it was by elrcum- stances that fill with indigna- tion every eivilized heart. We desire, also, that during these days of national mourning they join with their fellow clitizens in supplication to the God of nations for our af- flicted country.

You will do well, at the same time, to recall the essential points of the sacred and ven- erable doctrine of the Catho- lic Church in all that pertains to the nature of public au- thority and its divine origin, as well as the sinfulness and folly of the atrocious teach- ings that prompted a deed al- most without parallel in the bistory of mankind.

He did not belleve, however, thers would be any radical departures from the present policy of the Govern- ment, or anything to cause any disturb- ance in the financial world. Judge Ross, another member of the Cir- cuit Court of Appeals, heartily indorsed the statements.of Justice McKenna and Judge Morjow, and said the first duty of the next Congress would be to pass a stringent law, with provisions for prompt enforcement, making attempted assassi- nation of the President a_crime punish- able by death. The President could not, he said, be surrounded by an Buar every time he stepped out of doors, for that was repugnant to our form of ryv- ernment and distasteful to the President as well. FOREIGN DIPLOMATS OFFICIALLY INFORMED Secretary Hay Sends a Circular Let- ter to the Corps Announcing McKinley’s Death. & WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.—The following circular note was sent to the foreign representatives accredited to the Govern- ment of the United States late this after- noon: DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON, Sept. 14, 190L.. Sir: It 1s my painful duty to announce.to you the death of Willlam McKinley, President, in the city of Buffalo, at fifteen minutes past 2 in the morning of to-day, September 14. Laid low by the act of an jassassin, the week-long struggle to save his life has been watched with keen solicitude, not alone by the people of this country who raised him from their own ranks to the high office he filled, but by the people of all friendly nations, whose messages of sympathy and hope, while hope was possible, have been most. consolatory in this time of Bsore 3 2 that in obedience to the prescriptions of eou:.\dtuunn 1._% office of Pn:lldengn has 'u‘;. e e S S s Accept, sir, the renewed assurance of the highest consideration, "JOHN HAY. wim;‘tleft to guard the jail throughout the night. Captain Revere, in speaking of the riot, said: “The jail is so well guarded that it is impossible for any mob to break into it, no matter how great its numbers. They might be able to break in the windows and gain admission in that way, but we do not propose letting them get close enough to the building to do that. There is not only a strong guard at the build- ing, but policemen are being held in reserve at the Hast Chicago avenue and Larrabee street stations, and a riot_call would bring four patrol wagons filled Wwith policemen to the scene of action within five minutes.” Pearce Not Taken Seriously. The issuance of a ‘“revenge eircular’ by J. Irving Pearce Jr., Charles Weinland and Edward Myers is not taken seriously by the authorities. The circular calls for 10,000 volunteers to assemble at the County Jail on Sunday morning and lynch all anarchists. Sheriff Magerstadt says he will be prepared for 10,000 or any num- ber that may come. The situation of the nine men now locked up in the County Jail is unfortu- nate, to unf’ the least.

When asked to-day if she was not touched by the final scenes at th resident’s death bed she sald: “Why should it affect me? I do not feel any more concerned over his death than over that of any other man.” ‘““What do you think of President Mec- Kinley's words, ‘God’s will be done’ “I don‘t think they signify anything. He believed in God and it is natural to suppose he would think that way as he was about to'die. I don’t belfeve in God and for that reason those words do not appeal to me in any way.” “But don’t you think the President's sypreme faith in God gave evidence of great nobility of character?”’ she was asked. “Thousands of other men have had as great if not greater faith in God than he had, but you never hear of them. His ?flntg"wurdu do not appeal to me in the east. “Do you feel sorry that the President is dead?” “I feel sorry for his wife Miss Gold- man replied. ““Not because she is the wife of a President, but because she is a woman. She is simply obliged to bow to the inevitable. The position of a ruler in these days is a perilous one and when he is killed it is simply the result of his 4 assuming position.” ‘When asked what effect she thought the death of the President would have upon her case Miss Goldman stated she did not see how it ought to affect it.

Now that it has come to an actual showdown the Police departments of both Buffalo and Chicago are forced to admit there is absolutely no evidence against any of them to implicate them in the slightest degree in the conspiracy to mur- der the President. Still, in the face of this, the police are seeking by every pos- sible source to hold the prisoners. Speaking_of the ‘revenge circular” is- sue% by J. Irving Pearce Jr., Charles Wein- land and Edward Myers, John F. Geeting, attorney for the imprisoned anarchists, said to-day: “These men are openly advocating as- sassination. They are anarchists in the worst use of the word. It would be un everlasting disgrace to Chicago if any- thing should happen to my clients, who are known by every fair minded man to be innocent of any participation in this terrible crime.” Mr. Geeting blames yellow: journals for a great deal of the excitement and says the press should counsel the people to at- tendpstr!ctly to their business until the McKINLEY’S DEATH Chicago and wreak vengeance on the an- | archists charged with complicity in the | conspiracy to kill the late President played an important part in the habeas MISS LEONA MATHIS s SR P ] 1SS LEONA MATHIS writes from M 1913 Fifteenth avenue, South, Minne- apolis, Minn., as follows: “I cannot say enough in praise of Pe- runa as a splendid tonfc.

He has been in the city, according to his own state- ment, five weeks and had been employed as a barkeeper in F. F. Lueck’s saloon. His employer discharged him yesterday for makmifl disrespectful allusions to President cKinley. Officers Feather- stone and Fouz this afternoon found him down town uttering vile language against the memory of the dead President and saying, with doffed hat, that he saluted the name of Emma (oldman. One of the officers asked him if he did not consider it too bad that the President was dead. Von Overbeck eyed the officer shrewdly and said: “You are aren't you?” Von Overbeck was brought to the po- lice station and placed in a cell with a soldier who had committed some petty offense. He resum:d cursing the laws and the memory of the President. The soldier appealed to the jaller to remove him _to another cell before he “‘wiped up the floor” with the man who was ng disrespectfully of Fresident McKinley. M S State Fair Races Declared Off.
