President McKlnley's charming person
tllty nnd eloquent oratory are by no means
unknown to Omahans, for ho tins visited
this city four times within the last ten
years, twice before and twlco since his
election lo thu picsidency.
The first of "these four visits was In Au
gust, 1S02, when Major McKlnlcy was gov
ernor of Oblo. It was on the evening of
August 5, Just after tho republican statp
convention nt Lincoln had nomlnutuJ
Lorenzo Crouuse for governor, that Major
McKlnloy fired tho opening gun In a great
national and state, campaign In Omaha,
McKlniey'H numo had ut that tlmo at
tained such eminence that no leas than
20,000 people gathered ou the High school
grounds on that night to hear the Ohloan
speak. A lnrge platform had been erected
at tho southeast corner of the High school
and fromthclo Major McKlnley delivered
an address that held the close attention of
tho multltudo gathered about him for
nearly two hours A report says "the pro
ceedings wero uninterrupted, save by the
rumble 0 the cable trains and tho applause
that roso nnd fell undor tho spell of the
speakers inntwetlc utterances."
Major McKlnley wan accompanied on this
occasion by Charles J. Orceno, Kdward
Rosowatcr, Oeorgo P. Ilemls, W. J, Cou
ncil and other prominent citizens. After
his speech tho distinguished visitor was
driven from tho High school grounds amidst
the plaudits of tho pcoplo who lined tho
streets to Tho Dc'o building, where he made
an Informal call upon tho editor of Tho
Bee. P.-om there he was driven to his spe
cial train, which left for tho cast the fol
lowing morning.
Ills Second Vl-.lt.
Major McKlnley next visited Omaha In
October, 1894, when ho made a remarkable
campaign tour through the northwestern
states in tho Interests of tho republican
congressional candidates. He arrived In
Omaha from Lincoln nt 7 o'clock on the
evening of October I and wns met at tho
Union depot by snvernl hundred citizens and
a brass band, who escorted him to tho
Millard hotol. A reception was to have beon
given at tho hotel, but Major McKlnley
Mopped thero only lone enough to ex
chnngo grootlnga with John M. Thurston.
C.tnoial Mandcrson, Ocneral Cowln. Ed
ward Kosewater and a fow other friends.
It was estimated that fully 12.000 peoplo
ciowded Into tho Coliseum that night to
hear tho man who was then looked upon as
tho nation's next president. Tho great
audlcncn was by no means composed only
of Omaha people, for tho afternoon nnd
evening trains coming Into tho city from
nil directions worn crowded with repub
licans, who eagerly seized tho opportunity
of hearing McKlnley speak on tho tariff
question.
It was 8 o'clock when tho Ohloan entered
tho hall and passed down tho alslo to re
crlvo ono of the greatest ovations over
given to a public man in this city. When
tho applause and cheering subsided Senator
Thurston Introduced tho speaker, conclud
ing tho Introduction ns follows: "Ho (Mc
Klnloy) Is now fighting to snvo tho llfo of
Atnf.rlcon industry, as ho" then fought to
savo, tho life of tho American common
wealth. Tho author of tho Wilson bill la
being banqueted In England, but William
McKlnley holds his levees nnd receives his
ovntlons from tho people of tho United
States, I have tho honor to present to
this magnificent body of my fellow citizens
tho next president of tho United States."
As Governor McKlnley came forward at
tho conclusion of Senntor Thurston's final
sentenco the mighty nudlenco arose with
him and for twp minutes tho cheers rang
through the- building. Men stood on chairs
and shouted, hats were thrown In the air,
women waved tholr handkerchiefs. It wbb
Omaha's welcome to the country's next
presldsnt.
Governor McKlnlcy spoke llttlo more
than nn hour. Save for a brief reference
to tho pension question, he confined him
self strictly to the tariff. After his ad
dress he was given an Informal luncheon at
the Millard hotel and the following morning
he left for tho east. ,
At Omnhn Kipm-lllon.
It vyss on an errand similar to thu one that
' took him to Buffalo this week that Presi
dent McKlnlcy paid his third visit to
Omaha. A Rreat international exposition
was In progress and a week had been set
opart tor the celebration of peaco between
the Uultcd States nnd Spnln. The president
camo to participate In this celebration and
to cxprojs his approval and admiration of
tho tremendous enterprise of tho Transmls

one of Its grandest expositions.

The president arrived nt union station
at 9 o'clock ou the night of October U,

city hall, from which point he reviewed
the Illuminated pageant of the Knights of

In the ringing cheers of welcome. The

Wednesday, October 11, was President's
day at the Transmlsslsslppl nnd Interna
tional exposition. It was signalized by the
most stupendous demonstration that ever
occurred on western soil, The great
white city was packed with a surging and
struggling crowd until It seemed that 1,000
more people could not And foothold within
Its sates.
The presidential party entered tho ex
position grounds at 11 o'clock In tho fore
noon. The passage of tho presidential car
rlngo through the crowd was accompanied
by tho most extravagant demonstrations.
President McKlnlcy bowed right and left
to tho pcoplo as he passod on to the plat
form from which ho was to speaK. presi
dent Wattles of tho exposition concluded
his Introduction of the president as fol
lows: "All honor to the soldiers nnd their com
manders who have so gallantly planted
the American flag whero It will assure tho
blessings of liberty and of Ood. All hall
to tho chief who sent to a suffering pcoplo
tho humanity of a mighty nation. All hall
to our guest, our ruler, our president."
As Prcsldont McKlnloy arose tho multi
tude broke Into cheers that lasted for sev
eral minutes. During the eloquent address
that followed the cheering was repeated
at frequent Intervals and when tho presi
dent asked If tho American people would
endeavor to detract from the glory so gal
lantly won by tholr soldiers tho respoino
was a tempestuous chorus of "Noes" that
seemed to reflect tho unanimous sentiment
of tho tremendous throng.

In tho afternoon President McKlnlcy held
a reception In the Government building
Just such a reception as he was giving In
Buffalo yesterday when the would-be assas
sin shot him down and In tho evening ho
nnd tho other members of his party at
tended a dinner at tho Markel cafo on tho
exposition grounds. President Wattles was
toastmastcr at tho dinner nnd tcasts wero

A. Miles, Senator John M. Thurston. Gen
eral Mandcrson and Governor Alva Adams
of Colorado.
Tho president remained on the exposition
grounds until 9 o'clock, when he repaired
to the Omaha club for tho night. At 9
o'clock Thursday morning he was escorted
by the mounted Hoard of Governors of tho
Ak-Sar-Bcn to the Burlington station, where
ho boarded n special train for St. Ixmls.
Ill I. nut Visit Here.
President McKlnley's fourth and laBt visit
to Omaha wns on tho morning of May 2S
of this year, when ho stopped at the Union
stntlon for twenty minutes whllo returning
from California with his sick wife. On
this occasion thero were several hundred
Omahans at tho station to greet tho presi
dent, but owing to tho serious Illness of
Mrs. McKlnloy and tho fear of disturbing
her rest the greeting was a quiet one. Tho
president alighted from the train and mixed
with delightful Informality with his follow
citizens on tho depot platform. President
McKlnley showed his kindly nature that
morning by sending for tho engineer and
fireman of tho locomotive which had drawn
his special from North Platto and thank
Ing them cordially for tholr good service.
DR. LEE IS JW0MAHA MAN
One of Prrnlilent McKlnley' Attend
ing Hnrarnna In Well Known
In ThU City.
Dr. 15. W. Loe. one of President McKln
ley's attending surgeons, Is well known In
Omaha, where ho ranked as one of the
leading physicians during a residence of
nearly twenty years.
Dr. ties cams to Omaha In 1882 and was
connected at various times with every hot
pltnl In the city. He was on the staff of
tho Douglas county hospital for many years
and served as the Burlington's local sur
goon for fifteen years. Ho was medical dl
rector of both expositions and acquitted
himself with great credit. Dr. Leo took n
deep Interest In the Knlgbts of Ak-Sar-Ben
during Its enrly llfo and served on tho
board of governors. He was also an en
thuslastlc Elk.
At the close of the second exposition Dr.
Leo made a lengthy tour abroad and upon
his return selected St. Louis as a place
of residence. There he Is Interested In a
projected $500,000 hospital, for which funds
are now being raised, and will In all prob
ability bo its first chief surgeon. He was
also a prominent aspirant for tho medical
directorship of tho St. Louis World's Fair
and only failed of his ambition because of
his short residence there'.

PRAYER FOR THE PRESIDENT
llnblil 8lman .mil III ConKrrKnt Inn
Prny for Iteonvcry of
.Nntlnn'n Chief,
A solemn prayer by rabbi and congrega
tion that the life of President McKlnley
might bo spared was a feature of tho regu
lar Friday night services at the Jewish
synagogue.
Later Rabbi Abram Simon lectured on
"Tho Thrco Elements of Success." He
chose as nls picture text the story of Abra
ham when asked to sncrltlce his son Isaao
as a gauge of his faith. Analyzing this
biblical event, the rabbi -segregated Its
psychological elements of sacrifice Into
three, the spiritual capacity for the deed,
the willingness to sacrifice and the ability
to co-operate with others. These funda
mental features of the act were then ap
plied to present day successes, various Ill
stances being considered. Tho last ele
ment, co-operation, was treated with spe
cial Importance, a sharp moral of the ne
cessity for such a relation between rabbi
and congregation being pointed out. This
was remarkably fitting at this time, It
being the beginning of the third year of
Rabbi Slmon't Incumbency at the Omaha
synagogue.

or Jeopardized by the change, If It must
come.
Judge Leo Estellc President McKlnley
carried this nation safely through as se
rious a crisis as that which encountered
President Lincoln and it Is on that account
that ho Is loved by all patriotic citizens.
Ills death at tho hands of an assassin
would bo Just as great a misfortune to the
country as was the slaying of Lincoln.
Sheriff John Power This Is nn awful
shock. Thero are tome strong partisans
In the United States, but none so strong
or so devoid of reason as not to admlro
the qualities that made n great and good
man of President McKlnley,
lleyond American Credence.
Judge D. M. Vlnsonhaler It U almost In
credible that such a thing could happen
In this country nnd to such a man ns Pres
ident McKlnley. What kind of a mind
could It be that would conceive of such n
crime? Certainly no citizen of tho United
States has a grievance ngatnu tho presi
dent. Judge W. W. Slabaugh I am simply as
tounded. President McKlnlcy has never
done nnythlng that could make a reason
able man desire to Injure him. Ho Is a
good Christian man, a competent and
conscientious ofllclal and tho last person
In tho world wo would expect to be as
sassinated. D. M. Haverly I hope the prcsldont will
not die. Ho Is a man of splendid qualities
and there Isn't a solitary patriotic cltizon
of the United States who could wish him
an injury.
Utirntioii for (lie People.
J. M. Woolworth Thin Is perfectly ter
rible! It Is nwful! What Is going to be
come of this country? As far as McKlnlcy
Is concerned, the country will go along as
usual; but when we get to killing a presi
dent every few years vhat will become of
the country? I am overwhelmed. I nm
no politician nnd did not know Mr. McKln
ley In that way. I knew him socially and
he was a line man. This Just mcaun that
hereafter the president will have to bo
guarded when ho goes over the country as
rulers of other lands arc guarded.
Herman Kountzc This Is the most de
plorable calamity that could ever have
happened to the country. It cannot bo
excused. What effect will It havo on busi
ness? None, I think; the business of tho
country Is on too firm a foundation to bo
Injured by any calamity of this sort, hut
thero Is no telling what its ultimate effect
will be.
Luther Drake It Is a most horrible dis
aster. McKlnley has been one of tho most
popular presidents tho country has ever
had In all sections. It is n horriblo crime.
J. H. Bowman It Is strango that a man
cannot go about In this country free from
danger. Wo will have to maintain n body
guard for our officers und after whllo every
man will have to go armed If ho has a caro
for his personal safety.
C. D. Thompson It Is the most deplorable
thing that could have happonod. Ho was
tho chief magistrate of. tho entire country
and for tho wholo country. Men may have
different political views, but all must de
ploro any attack upon the chief magistrate
of tho land. The high office should havo
mado him Immune from personal attack
and no American could havo fired n shot at
the president of the United States wero he
clothed In his right mind.
ninir nt Simplicity.
E. J. Cornish The attempt on President
McKlnley's life Is another blow nt the sim
plicity which should always prevail In a
republic. If murderers persist In following
our chief executives nnd making attacks
upon their lives It will be necessary to
provide an escort for presidents. Tho pub
lic will soon demand that guards bo pro
vided for the president. It is bard to think
that tho day has come when a republic
must throw an armed guard about the man
whom It has advanced to tho highest po
sition within Its gift. Two presidents as
sassinated within forty years and the llfo
of tho third president in Jeopardy Is a
record that must strike sorrow to the heart
of every true American.
E. Wakeley What can a man say? It
overwhelms roe. There Is no way In which
I can account tor tho crime.
Floyd J. Campbell It is the most awful
thing that can bo conceived. Immediately
after we received tho news we communi
cated with n mombcr of the board of di
rectors of tho Hoard of Trade In Chicago,
asking them what they Intended to do and
suggesting that as n matter of precaution
and to protect the country from a panic
the session tomorrow be suspended. He re
piled that, taking Into consideration tho
proscnt condition of the country nnd the
fact the president Is not dead. It would, In
his opinion, bo better If the regular session
wero held and that the business men of
Chicago did not think the assassination
would produce a panic.
II. O. nurbank It Is awful to have a pres
Ident shot down llko this. I do not know
what the country Is coming to.
Sad Commrnlnry nn Clvlllantlnn,
Dr. W. H. Hanchcett It Is a sad com
mentnry on the present state of our civil!
zatlon when such crimes can occur. It ts
especially surprising that tho bullet of the
assassin should havo come to McKlnley,
who ha3 always been ono of tho common
peoplo, as unassuming as man can bo nnd
always ready to meet everyone. From
what I can understand at this tlmo they
are probing for a bullet which has entered
tho abdominal cavity. If this is so that
would be most serious. As thoy recovered
the bullet which entered the chest so
easily. It would Indicate that that ono had
mado but a comparatively superficial
wound, but when a bullet Is so deep seated
In the abdomen as to require probing It
means thnt grave results may be expected.
John Rush I consider that the cause of
theso frequent assassinations Is to be
found In tho lack of moral teaching which
has becomo neglected In the last fifty
years. Until we return to. Christian prin
ciples and have an Idea of obedience ol
law and orJer, such as our fathers enter
tained, we cannot hope to protect either
the life of tho republlo or the life and
liberty of the Individual,
George F. Gibson I think It is a horrible
thing. If it Is proved that the crime was
committed by ono of a band of anarchists,
such as was discovered at the time of the
assassination of King Humbert, It will be
the duty of the country to hunt tho mem
bers of such a band down and destroy them
they are mad dogs. I cannot conceive of
such a crime In a civilized land unless It Is
that we aro letting men exist In the country
whose hands are against every man.
Horror In neneral,
John Utt It strikes everybody with hor
ror. The shooting of President McKlnley,
who was not only a great man, but a good
onn, la a great misfortune to all of the In
terests of the country.
D. V. Sholes Was never more shocked
or surprised In all my life. Can scarcely
bellevu the report,
Attorney Charles Goss Am profoundly
shocked at thu news. I formerly attended
school In tho president's district In Stark
county, Ohio, and have watched his career
with Interest. Am deeply grieved at the
news,
A. J. Connett It Is simply terrible,
W. II. Wyman I can hardly tell how
much I regret to hear tho news, It Is ter
rible. Ho Is a good man nnd stands very
high In the affection of tho people. Hope
It may turn out that he ts not shot as seri
ously as repo.tcd.
Dr. Shepherd It Is too startling for any
one to make a clear statement. It Is a tcr
rlblo shock to everyone. The people of
other natlous will recognize that ono of tho
ablest and best rulers the world has ever
seen has been another victim of assassina
tion. Ucnscn & Mye-s The news will be heard
with universal regret.
C. W, Hare It lo a terrible event, uni
versally regret. cd. In case of the presi
dent's death our only consolation Is In hav
ing a lc president who Is worthy to till
the place
What Ihe Women Think,
Mrs. Georgo Tlldon I consider It the
greatest calamity that has befallen tho na
tion since the assassination of President
Lincoln nnd ennnot believe that nu Ameri
can citizen Is responsible for It, for even In
his strongest positions he was tolorant and
tonsldc'ate for everyone. His devotion to
Mrs. McKlilcy and his consideration of all
women havo been nn example to the whole
world and hate given prestige to women.
Mrs. Z. T. Llndsey It Is outrageous that
such a thing should occur and surely all
loyal American citizens can feel only the
deepest sorrow.
Mrs. Draper Smith I am deeply shocked
and especially that this could como right
aftor his speech of yesterday.
Mrs. W. P. Harford I am appalled that
this calamity ha8 befallen us nnd can only
express amazement that It has occurred.
MinUr it Miin'n I'nltli.
A. H. Hcnnlngs It 1 terrible news. It
shakes a man's faith In mankind to hear of
such n dastardly deed. Only an Insane man
could havo mndo an attack upon the presi
dent. Ho Is n man whose character Is nbovo
reproach, a man who has tho good of tho
nntlon continually In his mind. Ho Is truly
the servant of tho people.
M. D. Karr It must havo been tho work
of a lunatic. No Bane man would strike
down such a president as McKlnloy. His
administration of public affairs has always
been so wlbo nnd his private llfo has been
so admirable that nobody could fllnd fault
with him. His denth would deprive the na
tion of ono of Its noblest statesmen.
B. J. Jobst Is thero any law which
would permit tho hanging of tho man. even
though tho president should recover? Such
actions as these make ono wonder what
laws could bo adopted to prevent such
ntroclous crimes.
H. C. Jot dan There Is ono thing cer
tain and that Is If tho president wan shot
as tho result of an anarchist plot tho next
congress should mnko a change In our Immi
gration laws so thnt none but persons of
known good principles could land In tho
country.

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6. (Special Tele

In Washington several,, dajrs adjusting his
accounts with the War department, said
today that ho hoped to havo everything

tho light of the awful tragedy of today, Fos
ter's words to Swobe during tho courso
of tho talk are truly prophetic. Foster
said to Captain Swobe; "I havo nothing
to do In Canton. It Is a peaceful com
munity. But when President McKlnley fcocs
to Buffalo my work will begin."
Captain Swobo expects to remain In Wash
