Tho work of tho official day was done
when tho nows of tho great calamity ar
rived and tho great executive departments
had generally emptied themselves of their
human workmen and few of the ofllclals

Mr. Adee, the acting head of the Stato
department, was caught at tho ittatlon as
he was leaving for his country homo near
Iaurol, Md., nml returned nt onco to the
Stato department. Ho waited for official
confirmation of tho news and It was not
until bo received a copy of the bulletin
Issued by the physicians through Secretary
Cortelyou that ho undertook to acquaint
officially tho governments of all tho world
with tho facts of tho shooting. Ho then
drew up a mcbsago which will be sent to
every United Stntcs cmbausy, legation and
consulate throughout tho civilized world,
directing them to acquaint tho govcrnmcnta
to which they are nccrcdltcd of the facts.

You should make quick use of the moments
while the cream of completeness is yours to se

full of new goods. In no other store in the city
is there such a range of selection in fresh, clean,

Tho conferenco decided that there was
Uttlo more that the War department could
undertake at this time. Surgeon General
Van Hoypan of tho navy, who came down
to tho Navy department, called nt Gen

enso from a medical point of view, took
occasion to mention Dr. Nlchoals Sonn of

all the particulars and placed himself In
readiness for any service that might be
required of him, Informing Acting Secretary
Hnckett of that fact. Tho admiral found
himself unable to express his fcellngH at
the news nnd nil that could be extracted
from him was that ho was plunged In grief
too deep for utterance at this time. Ho
said thnt ho could not now express an
opinion ns to tho effect that tho calamity
might havo on the court ot Inquiry or eveu
whether It .vould result In tho postpone
ment of the nppioachlng Hitting.
Owing to tho absenco of many of tho dip

only two representatives of this body In

could hnppen to so splendid a man as Presi

such nn occasion It Is horrlblo, awful.
"McKlnley nevor had any fear of danger
from that aourco. Of course I never talked
to him about soch a subject, but I know
he nevor even dreamed of anything like
this happening. I cannot bo Interviewed
upon this. It Is too awful."
To a reporter he exclaimed: "What Is
this great country coming to when such

to tho bedside ofthe presldonl as rapidly
as the train will take me. I only hopo
that he Is not seriously Injured. But I am

PRESIDENT M' KIN LEY
(Continued from First Page.)
had here befallen the president and the nn
tton. Tho third, was a bystander, a negro,
who Khd 'only nn Instant previously grasped
in ms dusky palm the hand of the preil
dent. As ono man the trio hurled them
selvc3 upon the president's assailant. In a
twinkling he was borne to the ground, his
weapon was wrested from his grasp nnd
strong arms pinioned him down.
Then the multitude which thronged tho
edifice began to come to a realizing sense
of the awfulness of the scene of which they
had been unwilling witnesses.
A murmur arose, spread and swelled to a
hum ot confusion, then grew to a babel of
sounds and later to a pandemonium of
noises. The crowds thnt a moment before
had stood mute and motionless, ns In be
wlldered Ignorance of the enormity of the
thing, now, with n single Impulse, surged
forwnrd toward the stage of the horrid
drama, while a hoarso cry welled up from rf
thousand throats and a thousand men
charged forwnrd to lny hands upon tho per
petrator of the crime.
All In .Mini StriiXKlr.
For a moment the confusion was terrible.
The crowd surged forward regardless of
consequences. Men shouted and fought,
women screamed and children cried. Some
of those nearest tho doora lied from the
edifice In four of u stampede, whllo hun
dreds of others from tho outsldo struggled
blindly forwnrd In tho effort to penctrato
the crowded building nnd solvo tho mystery
of excitement nnd panic which every
moment grew nml swelled within the con
gested lnterloi of tho edifice.
Inside, on the slightly raised dais, wan
enacted, within those few, feverish
moments, a trngedy so dramatic In char
acter, so thrilling in Its Intensity, that few
who looked on will over bo able to glvo a
succinct account of what really A'Q. tran
spire. Even those who attended the: presi
dent came out ot It with blanched faces,
trembling limbs nnd beating hearts, whllo
their brains throbbed with a tumult of con
flicting emotions which could not be clari
fied Into a lucid narrntlvo ot the events ns
they really transpired.
Victim the Only l.'nlin Mini.
Of the multitude which witnessed or boro
n part In the sccno of turmoil nnd turbu
lence there was but one mind which seemed
to rclnln Its equilibrium, one hand which J
remnlncd steady, one oyo which gazed with
unflinching calmness and one voice which
retained Its even tenor and faltered not ut
tho most critical Juncture.
Thoy wero tho mind and tho hand nnd
tho eye nnd tho voice ot President McKln
ley. After the first shock of the ossnnsln's shot
ho retreated u utcp, then, us the detectives
leaped upon his assailant, he turned, walked
steadily to a chulr nnd seated himself, nt
the same time removing his hat and bowing
his head In his hands,
In nn Instant Secretary Cortelvou and
President Milhurn were at his side. His
wnlstco.it waa hurriedly opened, the presi
dent meanwhile admonishing thosu about
him to remain calm nnd telling them not
to be alarmed.
"But you nro wounded," cried his secre
tary, "Let me oxamlnc."
"No, I think not," answered the presi
dent. "I am not badly hurt, I assure you."
.overthelcsa his outer garments wero
hastily loosened nnd when a trickling stream
of crimson wbr seen to wind Its way down
Ills breast, spreading Its tell-tale Btnln over
tho whlto surface of the linen, their worn
ffara wero confirmed.
A forco of exposition guards wero on the
sccno and an effort was mnde to clear tho
building. By this time tho crush was ter
rific. Spectators crowded down Oin nt.ilr.

Tho resident's assailant In tho mean-
tlrau had been hustled by exposition guards
to tho renr of tho building, where ho was
held whllo tho building wns cleared nnd
later ho was turned over to Superintendent
Bull of the Buffalo pollco department, who
took tho prisoner to No. 13 pollco statlun

was remov.cd in tho automobllo nmhulnnco
and taken to the oxpoHltion hospital, whero
an examination was made.
The best medical skill was summoned
and within a brief period several of Buffa

Vpon the first examination It was ascer

causlns n comparatively harmless wound.
Tho other took effect In tho abdorrcn,
about four Inches below tho left nil pie,
four Inches to tho loft cf tho navel, and
about on n level with It.
Upon arrival ot tho exposition hospital
the peeond bullet wns probed for. Tho
walls of tho nhdorncn wero opened, but tho
ball wns not located. Tho Incision waa
hastily closed nnd nftor u hasty consulta
tion It was decided to remove tho patient
to tho home of President Mllburn. This
was done, the automobllo nmbulanco being
used for the purpose
At the .Milhurn UcnIiIoiht.
Arrived at the Mllburn residence all per-
Bons suvu tho medical attendants, nurses
nnd tho officials Immediately concerned
wero excluded and tho task of probing for
tho bullet which had lodged In the abdomen
wus begun by Dr. KoawcII Parke. When
tho nows of the crime was telephoned to
tho home of President Mllburn, whero Mm.
McKlnley was resting, Immcdlnto stops
wero tnkon to sparo her tho shock of a
prematuro statement of tho occurienco bo
foro tho condition of the president wis
ascertained. Guards were stationed and
no one was permitted to approach the
UOU39.
When It was decided to romove tho presi
dent from tho exposition hospital to tho
Mllburn residence the r.ows was broken
to Mrs. McKlnley ns gently an might bo.
She bore the shock remarkably well and
llsplaycd the utmost fortitude.
I'nhllo Will lie Kept Informed.
At S:30 tho representative of tho Asso
ciated Press was admitted to the Mllburn
mansion, whero Secretory Cortelyou gavo
him tho official bulletin prepared by tho
physicians.
Secrotary Cortelyou said that a tole-
graph offlco would be established at onco
In tho .Mllburn rosldonce nnd bulletins giv
ing the public the fullest informatlot poa-
slblo would bo Issued at short Intervals,
At tho Mllburn residence wero Secrotary
WIlHon, President Mllburn, Director Gen
eral Buchanan, Dr. Hlxey nnd Secretary
Cortelyou. TelegraniB poured In by the
hundred and Secretary Cortelyou was kept
bury replying to them. Two stenographers
with their typewriters wero placed In tho
pnrlor.
While the wounded president was being
borne from the exposition to the 'Mllburn
resldenco between rows of onlookers with
bnred heads n fnr different apcctaulo was
being witnessed along the route of hla
assailant's Journey from tho sccno ot his
crime to police headquarters. The trip was
made so quickly that tho prisoner wna
landed safely within tho pollco station and
the donra elbsed beforo any ono was aware
of his presence.
The news ot tho attempted assassina
tion, having In the raeauwhlle been spread
broadcast by the newspapers, like wildfire
It spread from mouth to mouth. Then bul
letins began to appear on tho boards along
Ncwspnper row and when the announcement
was made that th prisoner had been taken
to police headquarters, only two blocks dis
tant from tho newspaper section, "the
crowds surged down toward tho tcrraco,
eager for a glimpse of tho prisoner.
At pollco headquarters they wero met
by n strong' cordon' of police, which wns
drawn Up across tho pavement on Pearl
street, and ndmlttanco was denied to nny
but officials authorized to take part In the
eximlnatlon 'of tho prisoner.
In n few minutes the crowd had grown
from tens to hundreds nnd these In Jurn
quickly swelled to thousands, until the
street wns completely blocked with n mass
of humanity, It was at tills Juncture that
Borne one raised the cry of "lynch him."
I.Ike a flash the cry was taken up and the
whole crowd, as If Ignited by the single
mntch thus applied, re-echoed tho cry,
"lynch him,"
iii rni ten I iik Croud Drlten llncli.
"Hang him,". Closer the crowd BUrged
forward. Denser the throng became ns
new arrivals swelled each moment the
swaying multitude. The situation wns be
coming critical, when suddenly tho big
doorB were flung open nnd a squad of re
serves advanced with solid front, drove
the crowd back from tho curb nnd acrosH
tho Btrcct and gradually succeeded In dls
periling them from nbout tho entrance to
tho Btntlon.
By this time thero were probably 60,000
pcoplo assembled In thu vicinity of Pearl,
Seneca and Erie streets and the Terrace.
Tho crowd was so great that It becam-j
nccosenry to rope off tho entire street In
front of police headquarters and at a lato
hour tonight the police were, still pntrollng
tho streets In tho neighborhood In squads
of three or four.
Insldo thn stntlon house wero assembled
District Attorney Penney, Superintendent
of Police Bull, Captain llngan of the First
precinct and other officials. Tho prisoner
nt first proved quite communlcntlvc, so
much so, In fact, thnt little dependence
could be placed In what ho said. Ho llrst
gavo his namr as Fred Nlcman, said his
homo was In Detroit nnd thnt he had been
In Buffalo about n week. He sold he had
been boarding at a place In Broadway.
Later this place was located as John
Nowak's snloon, n Haines lnw hotel, No.
1078 Broadway. Here the prisoner occu
pied room No. 8. Nownk, tho proprietor,
said ho know very little about his guest.
Ho first met Czolgosz, he declared, last
Saturday, tho latter saying ho had como to
seo tho Pan-American exposition, nnd that
his homo was In Toledo. He had been
nlono at all times, about Nowak's placo and
had had no visitors. In his room was found
a small traveling jiag of cheap make. It
contained nn empty cartridge box and a
fow clothes. With theso facts In hand tho
police went nt the- prisoner with renewed
vigor In tho effort to obtain cither a full
confession or a straight account of his
Identity nnd movements prior to his ar
rival In Buffalo.
Denleo Preconcerted I'lnu.
He nt first admitted that ho was nn nn
archlst, in sympathy at least, but denied
strenuously that the attempt on the life
of the president fwon a result of prccon
certed plot on tho part of nny nnnrchist
society. At times he was defiant and ngaln
Indifferent. But nt no tlmo did ho betray
tho remotest sign of remorse. He declnred
tho deed waa not premeditated, but In tho
same breath refused to say why ho per
pctrutcd It. When charged by District At
torney Penney with being tho Instrument
of an organized band of conspirators he
protested'' vehemently that he never even
thought of ''-pefue'tratlng the crlmo until
this looming."1 ' "
After long nnd persistent questioning It
was nnnouncrid at pollco headquarters that
tho prisoner had mado a partial confes
sion, wtlch ho hud signed. As near ns can
bo learned tonight tho facts contained In
tho confession arc an follows:
Mil tn in ) r- of III" Conf cnnIoii.
Tho man's name Is Leon Czolgosz. Ho Is
of Polish-German extraction, His homo Is
in Cloveland, whore he has seven brothers
nnd sisters. Ho Is nn avowed anarchist
and an nrdent dlsclplo of Emma Goldman,
vho:io tenchlngs ho alleges arc responsible
for today's attack on tho president. He
denies stcndfastly that he la tho Instru
mcnt of nny body of anarchists or the tool
of nny coterio of plotters. Ho declares
ho did not even have a confederate. His
only reason for tho deed, hp declnres, la
that ho believed Iho present form of gov
crnment In the United Stntcs was unjust
nnd ho concluded that the most offcctlvo
way to remedy It wn to kill the president
Theno conclusions, ho declares,, ho reached
through the teachings of Kinuia, Goldman.,
P'rccniillini .Not l.neUliiK,
It was learned tonight from .nn author!
tatlvo sourco that the greatest precautions
hnd been taken to gunnl against the pob.i
blllty of any such occurrences as tran
spired today. Not only wero the services
ot tho local pollco nnd detective forces em
ployed to tho fullest extent, but specially
detailed men havo accompanied tho presl
dcnttal party In all Itn travels since In
auguration day, and In addition to this the
extra precaution was taken upon tho oc
caslon of tho president's visit to tho Pan
Amorlcnn exposition of having with him
thrco United States treasury secret service
men of long ex;icrlcnco and proven ability,
In fnct, to such mi cxtont has this matter
of tho president's personal safety teen car
ried by thoso responsible for his welfare
thnt It has given rise lo Homo criticism
Upon his visit to the exposition It was felt
by thoso surrounding him thnt tho presl
dent was llahlo to grcator chances of danger
than Is usual even upon his travels, owing
to the great crowds, the diversified char'
octer of tho people assembled and tho nocei
slty for direct contact with tho crowds. For
thcso reasons tho strict precautions above
mentioned wero resorted to.

Tho president himself has always" been
avcrso to any such protections and the sight
of officers of the law constantly ncsr his
person has been distasteful, Ho has al

Govornor Snvngo tonight sent the followin
telecram:
Mrs, William McKlnley, nuffnlo: Tho
people of tho state of Nebraska keenly
sympathize with you In your sad nflllctlou
and are earnestly supplicating Divine Provi
dence to spnro the life of our Illustrious
president. li.ilA i bavaok.
Governor.
W. J. Bryan made the following, comment
011 the Bhootlng ot tho. president:
,, "Tho attempted assassination of the pres
ldont Is a shock to thQ..entJro country and
hc.,a,nd, hU wife aro,tiw recipients of uni
versal sympathy. The dispatches say tho,
shot wns fired by an Insane man nnd It in
hoped that this is true, for while it is a
terrible thing for a president to be the
victim of tho net ot a maniac, It would bj
oven worse for him to bo fired upon by a
sano person prompted by mnllco or re
vengc. In n republic, where tho people
elect their officials and con remove them,
there can bo no excuse for a resort lo vio
lence. If our president wero In constant
fear of plots and conspiracies wo would
soon sink to the level of those nntionH In
which forco Is the only weapon of tho gov
crnme.U and the only weapon of tho gov
crnmcnt's enemies,"
Immediately after receiving tho nows of
tho shooting Mr, Bryan sent n brief 'mes
sago to tho president expressing sympathy
and tho hopo that ho would recover from
tho Injuries. Ho Is Inclined lo bellcvo thnt
tho shot was fired by an Insane man and
not by nn anarchist. Ho said tonight that
If later reports showed that tho attempted
assassination was tho work of an anarchist
he would discuss the crime furthor In The
Commoner.
Governor Snvngo heard tho news while
watching tho races at tho Stato fair. Tho
announcement was mado In front of tho
amphitheater by Starter McCreary of Hast
ings and Immediately n gloom fell upon
the asKcmhlngo. Tho speed progrnm was
finished, but thero was no moro checrlug
after tho news had bcon given.
Discussing the shooting tonight Governor
Savago said: "If tho assailant of Presi
dent McKlnley bo an anarchist and carried
Into execution a desfroo of his order to
tako the llfo of our chief executive, as
seems apparent, then ho should bo mado
tho subject of swift and condign punish
ment, nor should there bo n pnuso on Iho
part of organized society until tbo Inst
semblanco of anarchy Is blotted out. In mr
Judgment tho American pcoplo havo been
too tolerant In dealing with this evil,
yot I shall not bo surprised If this Inst act
awakens them to tho Importanco of prose
cuting a rolentless campaign against this
hydra-headed social monster."
A fakir started out on tho streets tonight,
to uso the attempt on tho president's llfo
ns an advertisement nnd ho nnrrowly es
caped being mobbed by an enraged crowd
of peoplo who gathered about him. Tho

were nil found In ono house nt the corner
of St. John plnee nnd Carroll avenue en the
West Side. Tho arrest.i were mnde on Infor
mation from the pollco officials of Buffalo
;who snld that-.4he- men wore members of p
society to -whrch -Nlemnn belonged and that
they had knowledge of the plot. Tho ro
lice have not given out tha names of Ibe
men taken Into cuitody, but ono of fie men
Is known to be A. Iskk, president of the
"Freo Society" organization. He was form
erly editor of nn nnnrchist paper which
hero the nnmo of the Flrehrnnd. Thi In
formation received from Buffalo h to the
effect that tho plot to kill the prfsldent
wns originated among tne members of the
Free society and that the Buffalo prisoner
was chosen by lot to commit the crime.
There were five men nnd three women In
the place whero the arrests were made. The
men were congregated in n meeting hall on
the Becond floor nnd appeared to be dis
cussing some serious mntter. They were
so completely surprised' by the Invasion of
the police thnt they had no time to miko
nny resistance. Isckk is supposed by the
police to have been tho lender of the men
lassemblcd, hut when he wns questioned nt
the house ho refusod to mako nny state
ment... On ihn way from the, house to thn
pntrpl wngon one of the prisoners cursed
tho officers nnd declared that he wns nn
nnniuhlst and wns proud of It. The three
women in tho house, Isrkk's wife nnd
dnughter and a woman visitor were subse
quently arrested. Tho building In which
the rr.ld was made Is n two-story nnd base

NEW YORK, Sept. jB. As ft. whole, th
annrchls.V gcoup.of ratprsoni N,,J cxpres
no xvijrei ,ai me anoqung or crejiideni Mr
Kluley. On the contrary, there was n erea
gathering of tho members tonight at Bar
tholdi hall In that city and Nlemnn, who
shot tho president, was toasted In beer
time nnd time, again. All of tho tnlkotlvo
members of tho group sap Nloman Is un
known to them. One of them said: "Wo
don't know htm, but he Is oue of us. He
did what It was his duty to do nnd wo honor
him. whllo personally thinking bis effort
might, better navo been employed ncros.i
tho ocean upon somo crowned head."
They all deny that there Is any truth to
tho ropjr.t that at nny tlmo President Mc
Klnloy wns Included In tho plots to ns-
.sasslnate tho heads of nations. Thny claim
tbat President McKlnlcy's llfo was never
declared forfeited by them nnd that tho
work of today Is that of another branch
of their organization.
Petro Estoves, who In the past has gloried
In ench killing of n head of a nntiou or In
nny nttcmpt, was very loud tonight In his
denials of nny participation by the Pater
son group In tho alfalr at Buffalo this
afternoon. Estoves even goes so far ns to
leny that Nlorasn Is nn anarchist. "I nover
heard of him," Estoves said. "Io Is prob
ably somo German lunatic or fool."
Tho !lrst question asked in Pnterson
whan -the news of tho president's assassinn
tlon wns received, was whether tho crimi
nal was from thnt city.
Tho feeling of thn pcoplo outside of an-
urchlst circles Is ono of tho deepest In
dignation, this being heightened by tho fact
mat tlio plot to sluy King Humbort was
hatched there. Thero Is much tnlk thero
tonight of attempting to doviso means to
drive tho anarchists out, of thnt city.
