THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1901. 25 ‘NATIONS SHARE AMERICA’S SORROW FERVENT WORDS OF SYMPATHY 4 RABBIS TRIBUTES T0 DEAD PRESIDENT MAKE TEARS FLOW Joy of New Year's Celebration Turned to Sorrow, While Clergy and Laity Mourn Martyr. ADNESS and sorrow prevalled at the services held yesterday in the various synagogues in this city in honor of the celebration of the Jewish New Year, or Rosh Ho- shanah. The death of President McKin- ley cast a gloom over the festivities and instead of joy and gladness there were grief and pain. % The various Jewish places of worship were crowded to the doors and the con- gregations listened with bowed Neads and tear-dimmed eyes to the words of the rabbis as they extolled the manifold vir- tues of the nation’s martyred chieftain and denounced the vile teachings that had raised the hand of the cowardly assassin against the chosen head of the repubiic. Special prayers were offered up for the repose of the soul of the dead President and heartfelt words were uttered that the ruler of the universe might vouchsafe comfort to the bereaved wife and reia- tives and bring consolation to them and to the millions who share in their grief.

Nieto delivered a stirring ser- mon to a large congregation. Similar scenes were enacted at this place of wor- ship as were witnessed at other syna- gogues, the reference to the murdered Piesident_moving all listeners to tears. Rabbi Nieto's sermon was on “The Quest of Humanity,” and wag preceded by a eul of the republic’s dead leader. ERzbbi Nieto said: hist It is an unfortunate thing in this world, and proves it has been so in all ages of man’s existence, that sufferi disease and death have been endured by good and true peo- ple witout cause or reason. Bloodshed has al- ways vreceded the establishment of justice and the murder of the good and true has always preceded the adoption of measures fo tection innocence and virtue. said that *‘the ri takes it to heart.” Two Presidents before McKinley have been martyrs to the cause of freedom and liberty, and he, the third, must also be a sacrifice be- fore American people will take necessary pre- cautions to avoid the staining of their escut- cheon with so deadly a blot. Rev. I. Meyer delivered a powerful ser- mon to his congregation at the Bush- T street Synagogue, many persons being un- | to the edifice. | able to secure admission | Rabbi Meyer said: To us Israelites the new year is an espe- cially sad one. In common with all fellow citizens the great calamity that has befallen | this Jand, the death of our beloved President, |is felt by us almost as a personal loss. We have watched at his bedside with anxiety and hope, while there was a struggle between heaven and earth to claim the suffering pa- | tient. The last words he uttered, ‘‘Good-by. This is God's w: His will be don showed his deathbed to be that of a righteous man, the deathbed of a true servant of the Great King. The key to the kingdom of Mr. Me- Kinley's noble character Is to be found in the knowledge that he had implicit faith in God and that he strove to discharge his duties with coasclence, both in his public and private life, as a loyal subject of the Great King. May his memory be blessed forever. — ‘ | 1 LEAGUE OF THE CROSS \ CADETS SHOW RESPECT Regimental Order Adds a Tribute to the Character of William McKinley. | _The First Regiment of the League of | the Cross Cadets has offered a tribute to the memory of the late President Wil- | lilam McKinley. By order of Colonel Ed- ward J. Power the following special an- nouncement ‘to the command was made yesterday: San Francisco, September 14, 1901, It is with the sincerest regret and the most heartfelt sorrow that the regimental com- mander announces to the command, the death, on September 14, 1%1, of William McKinley, President of the United States. In this hour of national mourning it is but fitting that we should add our tribute to the character of tlie great and good man whom it has pleased al- mighty God to call from earth. We recall the honor he did our regiment when he visited our city last May and received the review tendered at the seventh annual competitive drill, and the words of commendation and encouragement that fell from his lips. We may now say from the bottom of our hearts, “‘God rest his soul.” As a mark of respect all officers will wear the usual badge of mourping (on_left arm above the elbow, and on sword hilts), for thirty days, and the regimental colors will be draped for the same period. By order of COLONEL EDWARD J. POWER. P. J. HAGGERTY, Captain and Adjutant, — McKinley Post Will Co-operate. At a meeting of the McKinley G. A. R. committee of May, 1901, composed of rep- resentatives of the G. A.

Whether the British Government will issue any of- ficial notification of mourning rests chief- ly with King Edward. Grief Throughout Europe. Affecting scenes marked the announce- ment of the death of the President at the Ecumenical Methodist Conference, which passed resolutions declaring that the whole Christian world sympathized with the American people. Throughout the length and breadth of Burope feelings similar to those evinced in the British metropolis seem to have been evoked. Perhaps this is best, voiced by the Vienna Neue Weiner Tageblatt, which says: ““The ocean is not wide enough to hold all the sympathy ‘that is streaming from the Old World o the New.” The Lord Mayor sent to United States Embassador Choate the *following mes- sage: The citizens of London are profoundly moved and deeply affected by the sad intelligence of President McKinley's death. They had hoped that under Providence 8o valuable a life might have been spared for the welfare of his coun- try. In their name, I beg to tender to your Exceliency heartfelt sympathy and shall be Most Rev. Frederick Temple, has sent the following dispatch to Mr. €hoate: *“1 desire to express in behalf of the Church of England the deep grief with which we have heard of the death of the President. The loss of so great a ruler is a calamity to the whole world. The triumph- of wickedness fills us with sor- row. Our prayer and good will will be an earnest one for the Amer! n people.” Mr. Choate, in replying, said: “I assure you that your Grace's prom- ise that the prayers of the church will be offered for our afflicted people will excite he gratitude of my countrymen.” All the evening papers contain long edi- torials eulogizing President McKinley, ex pressing sympathy with Mrs. McKinley and forming estimates of President Roosevelt. A meeting of the London Corporation to pass a vote of condolence will be heid Thursday next. Suppression of Anarchy. The Daily Telegraph this morning pub- lishes the following dispatch from Vienna: The news of President death aroused the deepest sympathy of all classes in Vienna and immediately brought into prom- inence again the question of dealing with anar- chists. Dr. Hengelmueller, Austro-Hungarian Minister to the United States, who Is now in Vienna, is not hopeful of any concerted action against anarchism. He says that any positive measures would be extremely difficult in Great Britain and the United States, but that the United States will probably adopt much more stringent measures against immigration, The Times, in an editorial feelingly ex- pressing Great Britain's participation in the grief of the United States, says: Mr, McKinley's high character in public as well as private life will be more fully realized than ever before after he has passed away. He will not be remembered as a statesman re- markable for original views or distinguished grateful if you will convey it to Mrs. McKinley | by bold Initiative in policy, but In a marked and the people of the United States. The emis nent career and public services of Mr. McKin- ley are widely appreciated here and will long be remembered by the British people, who, hav- ing themselves sustained the loss of a beloved sovereign, more keenly sympathize with the United States in the sudden removal of their distinguished President. The number of callers and tele; ceived at the United States eml creased as the dag" wore on. Embassador to the United States, Lord Pauncefote, personally expressed to Mr. Choate his’ deep sorrow. Lord Salisbury and the Marquis of Lansdowne sent rep-, resentatives to the embassy and Lord Rosebery and Mr. Chamberlain sent mes- sages. The members of the diplomatios corps left their cards at the embassy. Mr. Broderick, the War Secretary; Lord George Hamilton, the Indian_Secretary, and many others called. Sir Henry Irv- ing’s message was especially sympathetic. He said: “‘May I add personally my deep grief to the people of this nation and the nations of the earth for a great man snatched away in the fullness of love and honor.” Praise for Dead President. The Earl of Aberdeen, in presenting medals to some of the Gordon Highlanders at Aberdeen to-day, said that with their whole hearts the British give the Amer- icans unstinted sympathy, intensified by the memory of their ungrudging manites- tations atthe time of Queen Victoria's death. The Earl referred to President McKinley as a splendidly courageous and lofty spirited man, and to President Roosevelt as a brave and upright man, ams re- ssy in- The British | degree he has been a typical representative of the prevailing opinion of the majority of the American people. - He has been _actuated throughout life by a strong sense of duty. His devotion to his country was never questioned even by those who have differed from him. He has been courageous and clear-sighted and has left his mark upon his time. The tragic ending of an honorable career would insure for him a prominent place in the memory of his countrymen, even if he had not won it already by good and faithful service to the State. The morning Leader appears with heavy mourning borders and prints portraits and sketches of the lives of the late Pres. ident McKinley and of Theodore Roose- | velt. It expresses editorially the great sympathy felt in Great Britain and sug- | gests that the only appropriate expression of national sympathv wiil he the holding of a memorial service in St. Paul's Ca- thedral. The Leader says: Mr, McKinley came of the stock which bulflt the cathedral. He belongs to a race whose leaders are burled there. We could find no apter mode of emphasizing the unity of the ‘Anglo-Saxon people. The Morning Post, announcing the news of the President’s death in black border, editorially describes Vice President Roose- velt as a good all-round man, who, if a crisis’ should unfortunately come, man marked out to meet it.

The United States embassy had not r ceived official notification of the Presi dent’s death when the press dispatch an- neing it arrived, and at 9:30 the news conveyed to the embassy. Embassa- dor Porter, who has not been well for the past fortnight, was deeply aftected by yesterday’s intelligence. He had under- gone a very painful but not.dangerous | operation for a local trouble vesterda: and was upset by the sudden change for the worse in Mr. McKinley's condition. His physician therefore ordered that he should have complete repose d forbade that the news of the President’s death be communicated to him this morning. He will be notified later in the day. Minister of Foreign Affai Delcasse called at the embassy at about 10 o'clock but could not be received. A few minutes later President Loubet drove up. The Km- bassador's physician received him and ex- plained that the news had thus far been was deemed inadvisable to allow him to see any one. President Loubet expressed deep sympathy with the Embassador and asked that the latter be informed of his visit, and that he intended personally to | convey condolences over the loss sust: by the American people. He then de- parted. The .doctor_says there is absolutely no danger for Embassador Porter, who only needs rest to insure his complete recov- ery within a few days. In fact, but for the shooting of President McKiniey, Gen- eral Porter would have started on a jour- ney to Constantinople next Saturday, as planned. Message From Loubet. President Loubet sent the following message to Mre. McKinley: | I learn with deep pain that his Exceilency, | Mr, McKinley, has succumbed to the deplor- able attempt on his life. I sympathize with you with all my heart In the calamity which bereaves the American nation, so justiy beloved and respected. EMILE LOUBET. The Premier, M. called at the residence of the United States embassy. The registers opehed at the United States embassy and at Bm- bassador Porter's residence are quickly filling with the names of American resi- dents and visitors and with those of no- table Frenchmen.

It is also reported that the directors of the Bohemian Club have been urged by members of that institution to exclude the Examiner and drop the propristor of the o}flrienswe paper from the roll of member- ship. The members of the Pacific-Union Club are not inclined to await the judgment of the directory. They have taken it upon themselves to circulate a petition asking the board to request Willlam R. Hearst to resign, and in the event of his refusal or neglect to comply with the requ expel him from the club. The petit so extensively signed that it already rep- resents the true sentiment of the mem- bership. Hearst is a member of two San Fran- cisco clubs—the Bohemian and_Paciiic Union. According to the Blue Book, he is not a member of the University, Cosmos, San Francisco, or Press Club or the Union League. The membership of the Pacific-Union consists largely of men who are prominent in the financial, com- mercial and industrial affairs of the Pa- cific Coast. Twenty years ago a consoli- dation of the Pacific and Union clubs was effected, and since that time the Pacific- Union has been recognized as the fore- most commercial and social club on the Pacific Coast. and one of the leading in- stitutions of its character in the United States. Members of the club as a rule are very cautious 'about speaking of the internal affairs of the institution, but in all other leading clubs in the city it is common gossip that the Pacific-Union has resolved to clear itself of association with Hearst. Several members, observing that the board had not given orders to exclude the Examiner, gave a slight ex- pression of their impatience by throwing the paper Into the fire. Gossip in clud circles is to the effect that the feeling in the Bohemian Club is such that the di- rectors will be constrained to some course of action in the matter. The leading spirits of the Pacific-Union are also activ: members .of the Bohemian Club, and whatever course is taken in ome club is qurllet]y known and freely discussed in the other. MANAGERS OF THEATERS TO CLOSE THEIR PLACES Temporary Suspension of Footlight Performances in All of the Local Playhouses. The theatrical managers of this city were prompt t@ show their respect to the memory of President McKinley. Meeting early yesterday morning, they passed the fcllowing resolutions: ‘Whereas, The theatrical organizations in the Eastern cities have, in jolut conferehce, re- solved that on the day and night of the obsequies of the President all theaters In every jurisdiction should be closed to the public as a fitting mark .of respect to the memory of the illustrous dead; now Therefore, the Theatrical Managers’ Assocla- tion of San Francisco does hereby, in compli- ance with such resolution, resolve that on the day of such obsequies, and the night following the same, all theaters represented by member- ship in sald association shall close.
