BUFFALO, Sept. 11. Absolute quiet rro
vailed lu the neighborhood ot the Mllburu
restdenco through tho early hours of tho
day. Tho pollco maintained tho lines on
Uclawnro avenuo and the streets which In
tersect It nnd dotlblo picket lines patrolled
by Fourteenth Infantry men protected tho
houso from any Intrusion. Many persons
enrao to tho outer police Hues and gazed In
sllcnco at the houso where the body of tho
dead president reposes. Somo talked In
awed whispers ot the cruel tragedy that had
taken the nation' ruler and among all tho
deepest sorrow was manifest. Pathetic fig
ures In tho crowd wero scores ot old Ornud
Army men, who grieved at the loea ot their
comrade. Tho bitterness melted Into re
grot. Many pleaded with tho pollco for ad
mission to tho residence, 'saying it wns their
right to guard tho body of tho man who
had fought In their ranks and wns their
comrade. Tho police, with regret, fully on
forced tho order.
Within tho lines n corps of worn nnd tired
newspaper men wero nbout tho only
civilians. They loitered nbout tho tents
and sheds on tho cast sldo of Delaware
nvenuo nwaltlng tho action of tho day.
Early In tho morning a number ot photog
raphers, representing tho pictorial press,
wero admitted to tho lines and several hun
dred views of the house nnd grounds that
havo been made historic by the death of an
other murdered president wero tnken.
A heavy damp fog still hung over tho
city and gave thu air a chill that was pene
trating. At 8 o'clock a, .company of the
I'ourtccnth Infantry, commanded by Lieu
tenant James Ware, camo to relievo their
comrades who had been on duty for twenty-four
hours. The formalities of posting
the now guards took place at once.
Mvh. McKlnley Hear m Well.
None who enme to show their sorrow for
tho dead president failed to ask felicitously
for Mrs. McKlnley. It was known sho wns
not strong physically and thero wns gravo
fear for tho consequences ot tho suffering
and shock she had experienced. Tho first
word of encouragement came from tho ser
vants of tho household, who said sho was
still In her room nnd had apparently rested
well. This report was amply confirmed at
8:15 o'clock by Dr. Wasdln, who had called
at tho house to sec her. Ho said that shu
had not only reuted fairly well, but was
showing encouraging strength In her grief.
His assurances wero welcomed by thoso
who heard them.
Tho large American flag which has hung
from tho front of tho Mllburn homo nlmost
continuously slnco the exposition began was
not removed. Thero was no means of hnlf
ninstlng for n muto trtbuto of respect and
It was left whero It was, draped across tho
front of the veranda. It was 0110 of tho
only bits of color In u gray, cheerless
landscape.
President McKlnley's faithful and do
voted secretary, Mr. Cortelyou, desplld-tho
tremendous strain of the lust few days, is
bearing up bravely. For six days and nights
ho has been In charge of everything nt tho
Mllburn house, only ablo to snatch an oc
casional rest for an hour or two. But oven
tho final blow, crushing as It was, did not
prostrnto him, nnd nftor thrco hours' rest,
from 1 to 7. ho wns up ngnln, his heart
breaking, but with u calm exterior, taking
up the responsibilities of seeing to all ar
rangements, with tho resolution to carry It
through to the end.
Colonel Bingham, superintendent of publlo
bulldlngB nnd grounds In Washington, ar
rived early In tho morning and will dovoto
himself to assisting Sccrctnry Cortclyou .11
any way he can. Colonel Bingham Is fear
ful lest the devoted secretary will collapse
under the strain.
Mrs. Barber and Miss McKlnley, sisters
of tho dead statesman, drove to tho Mllburn
house at 9:30 and wore nt once escorted In.
Beth showed deep grief.
KxiiiiMlf Inn riatcK Close.
The gates of tho Pan-American exposi
tion will bo closed nnd will remain shut
until Monday. Tho city is crowded with
exposition visitors, but they, like nil others,
aro In deep mourning for tho loss of their
president, and tho holiday decorations now
seem a badge oi mockery. Everywhero
there are signs of sorrow. Flags lly mid
mast and preparations aro In progress to
give tho public buildings a draping of black.
At all tho city churches tomorrow thero
will bo services and prayers for the late
president. Plans for formal civic action
and for n largo escort of military and civic
organizations when the body Is removed
to tho train that will carry It to Washing
ton nro under consideration. The pooplo
nf Buffalo feel especially keen regret In that
tho president was stricken down whllo their
guest, and tho loss, therefore, seems moro
poignant.
It Is au Interesting fact, recallod during
tho morning, that Ellhu Root, now secre
tary of war, wns present when Arthur took
tho oath of ofilco when Garfiold died. Ho
was sent for by Arthur ns soon as tho nows
reached him, and, by his advice, nnd also
nt tho request of Garfield's cablnot, tho
oath was administered nt 2 o'clock In the
morning by Justice Bradloy of New York.
Abner McKlnley, brother of President
McKlnloy, drovo to tho Mllburn houso at 10
o'clock, accompanied by Lteutennnt James
McKlnley, Colonel Brown and Sir. Meek ot
Cnuton, Tho pollco rclloved tbo rope
lines and tho rarrlago rolled slowly up lo
tho ontrance of the house. Mr. McKlnley
bent forward In his seat In the carrlago
and sh..dod hlb eyes with his hands. When
ho allghtod ho walked slowly up to the
door of the houso, with his eyes downenst
and hesrt bent. His face plainly showed
tho strain and grlet of tho night.
Doctum Prt'pnri' Stn ti-ineiit.
Efforts wero mndo today to obtain from
tho physicians a technical history of tho
case. Drs, Mynter, Stockton, Park and
Mann when seen asked to bo excused from
discussing the Bubjcet at this tlmo. Thoy
explained that copious notes of tho devel
opments In tho case had been taken by
each of tbera and theso will be used In tho
preparation ot a general statoment that
will bo published in the Medical Journal.
Pendlug tho preparation of that statemont
they think it would not bo proper to dis
cuss tho subject. Whon theso combined
statements will bo ready to be glvon to the
press the doctors cannot say. Dr. Mc
Burney, tho New York surgeon, who tool: a
prominent part In tho case, declined to bo,
seon this morning, pleading fatigue from
last night's ordeal,
At 10 o'clock Mllburn house, which all
through the morning had boen Bllont and
to outward apeparances deserted, showed
its first stir, Tho relatives of Presldont
McKlnley began arriving and tho waiting
attendants stood at tho open door to ro
celve them.
Mr. Mllburn Joined the party at 10 o'clock
and for a time stood at thb door with
bared head with some pf tho friends of the
McKlnley family. By that time great
crowds wore banked at tbo nd of the
1 roped enclosure, but perfect order was
maintained.
To tho number of more than thirty
camera men gained admission-to tho police
lines, causing somo nnnoynnco, nnd oven
tho grief of tho relatives of tho dead presl
dent wns not sacred to them. Thoy
pointed their camerns Into tho tear-stnlned
faces of tho relatives and snnpped the
shutters. The pollco declined to tako the
responsibility of ejecting them.
Tho coroner of Buffalo, James Wilson, nr
rived at tho residence nt 10 o'clock nnd ofll
dally viewed tho body. He stated to nn
Associated Press representative that it had
been his Intention to Impanol a Jury, but ho
hnd been officially advised by tho district
nttorney that such a proceeding would bo
unnecessary. After tho autopsy he said he
would Issue a certificate of death and a per
mil for the removal of tho remains.
Senator Hannn camo to tho houso nt 10:10,
accompanied by Comptroller Dawes and El
mcr Dovor, his private secretary. The sen
ntor walked slowly nnd haltingly and bowed
his head as ho approached the houso thit
sheltered tho remains of his dead friend.
Exaggerated reports of Mr. Honna's Illness
had picvlously been sent out and his np
pearanco on the streets completely dispelled
them. He Is broken In spirit nt tho denth
of President McKlnley, but remnlns strong
physlcnlly.
Mrit. Itohnrt nt Mlllturn llnuir.
An affecting Incident of the morning was
the coming of Mrs. Oarret A. Ilobart, wlfo
of the former vlco president of the United
Stntes, nnd her son. Mrs. Ilobart was In
deepest mourning and after her visit to the
houso camo out with her handkerchief to
her eyes, weeping. Tho members of Presl
dent McKlnlny's cabinet begnn assembling
nt 10:3(1. Sccrctnry Hoot was the first to
nrrlvo nnd nfter him camo Secretaries Iong,
Wilson and Hitchcock, Attorney General
Knox and Postmaster General Smith. Tho
only absentees wero Secretaries Oage and
Hay, who had not yet reached the city. Tho
cabinet mombers went to a rear parlor of
tho Mllburn homo and thero began their
conference. At the samo moment the sur
geons selected to perform tho autopsy had
assembled with their assistants In tho room
upstairs, whore tho president had died and
where his body still rented.
General Charles F. Boo presented himself
Informally at tho house at 11 o'clock. Ho
said that until tho funeral arrangements
had been completed ho could sny nothing
about thu New York troops that would bo
assigned as escort to the body of tho de
parted statesman. He said that ho was In
a position to lssuo the necessary orders Just
as soon as tho funeral plana were completed.
REPORTlfAUTOPSV
(Continued from First Page.)
tho president, or Is It a common complaint?
Did thp uso of smoking tobacco by tho
presldont have nny Important bearing on
the case?"
"A man whose heart walls nrL very thick
hi usually one who leads a sedentary llfo
and whose heart gets no great amount of
exorcise. This organ, like any other, re
quires nctlvo exercise to keep It in proper
condition, rso doubt tho president's heart
was sulllclent for him In his ordinary busi
ness affairs of llfo when no strain was ro
qulred. When extraordinary efforts were
necessary tho heart was unable to meat
them. No, I don't think the smoking habit
atlccted tho president's heart to tho extent
of making It figure in tho result or his
case. Ho was not a grent smoker and at
ono tlmo we oven considered the propriety
of permitting him to have a cigar."
llof'Kiit Kmm If It Wn loUoiicd.
"It has been suggested, Dr. Mann, that
tho bullet which went Into tho president's
abdomen was poisoned and that this was
what caused death. Do you think thero Is
any basis for tho reports?" was asked.
"Tho authorities and tho physicians havo
received a number of telegrams and letters
alleging that tho bullet was poisoned." Dr.
Mnnn replied. "I don't know whether it
was or not. A chemical or a bacteriological
examination of the remaining bullets In the
pistol will bo necessary to concludo that.
This conclusion will bo very difficult to
reach for many reasons. All tho tissues
through which the bullet passed aro dead.
This Is very remarkablo Indeed. Tho area
of tne dead ilesh In tho stomach was per
haps as great as a silver dollar In circum
ference. Dr. Wasdln, tho Marino hospital
expert, was strongly Inclined to tho opinion
that tho bullet had been poisoned."
"Just a word In conclusion." said Dr.
Mann. "I think In Justice to tho other
physlelnus and myself something should bo
said about tho bullotlns Issued ovory day.
Wo aimed to make them as plain as possi
ble and to state tbo .facts simply. They
were given as hour to hour talks of thu
president's condition, containing no opin
ions nor making nny prognostlcntlons
simply o r.nrratlon of conditions mado
with a deslro to keep the publlo Inforraod
from day .to day of tho -actual condition
of tho stato of affairs."
Anothor ot tho physicians, who requested
that his name not bo used, said: "So far
as tho treatment of tho case was concorned,
both from a surgical and medical stand
point, It was successful. Tho abdominal
wound wns fatal from tho start. The phy
sicians should feel rolleved over the ro
suit of the autopsy, because It rsvenled tho
fa;t that tho nbodmlnal wound was neces
sarily fatal and that nothing that was dono
or could Jjo dono would moro than dolay the
Inevltablo result. Tho government, tho
family and the profession wero fairly rep
resentod among tho physicians and the
surgeons making the autopsy,"
Besldos the brief ofilcial report ot tho
nutopsy given out by tho physicians thoy
will prepare extended reports ou tholr notej
for tho medical Journals. Tho surgical ro
port will be prepared by Dr. Mann nnd
will bo signed by nil tho surgeons. Tho
medical report will bo written by Dr. Bixov
and will bo submitted to the Nnvy depart

SARATOGA, N. Y., Sept. II. When Theo
doro Roosevelt nnd his guides left Tehawus
club early yesterday morning on n hunting
expedition tho then vice president fully
believed that President McKlnley wns en
tirely out ot dagger and on the rapid road
to recovery. Tho hunting party moved In
tho direction ot tho mountains. They had
not been guue over tbrco hours when a
mounted courier rode Into tho club with
messages stating tint President McKlnley
wns lu a critical condition. Thu messages
hnd been telegrnphed to North Creek nnd
from there telephoned to a point tun mllea
south ot the club. B.xtr.i guides nnd run

Jn the direction of Mount Marcy, with In
struction to sound a general alarm In order
to. find tho vlco president ns soon ns pos
sible. Tho fnr-rcnchlng mcgnphoncs codo and
tho rllle cracking signals ot the mountain
climbing guides as hour after hour passed
away marked tho progress of tho scarchlug
mountaineers ns they climbed.
Just an tho afternoon began to merge
with tho shades of early evening and as tho
searchers wero ncnrlng tho summit of tho
lofty mountain, tho responsive echoes of
distant signals were heard and grndunlly
tho scouts nnd tho Roosevelt party camo
within hailing dlMnncc of each other.
When Colonel Itcosuvelt wao reached und
Informed of tho critical condition of ths
president he could scarcely belluvo tho bur
den of tho mcss.iges personally delivered to
him. Startled nt tho nerious nature of the
nows, tho vice president at BiIj o'clock Ira
medlntely stnrled back for tho Tahawuo
club.
Wild Mirhl Itiile.
In the meantime tho Adirondack Btago
line placed nt his disposal relays of horses
covering tho thlrty-fivo miles to North

dered tho roads unusually heavy. Without
any delay ho moved ns rapidly ns possible
In tho direction of North Creek, the north
ern terminus of tho Adlrondncks, whero his
secretary, William I-ocb, Jr., and Superin
tendent Dcmond of tho Dclnwaro & Hiuhon
railroad with a special train wero awaiting
his arrival.
Soon after Colonel Roosevelt started
night enme on and rendered tho trip ex
ceedingly difficult nnd dangerous, ns mile
after mllo wns traveled lu almost Impene
trable darkness, but the expert gulde3
piloted the vlco president safely to his
objectlvo point. Not until he dashed up
t the special train at North Crock at 5:22
o'clock this morning did ho learn that
President McKlnley had passed awny at
Buffalo at 2:13 o'clock. Mr. Loeb, his sec
retary, was tho first to break tho news to
him. Tho new president wns visibly
affected by tho intelligence nnd expressed'
a deslro to reach Buffalo as soon as pos
sible. Within ono mlnuto after his ar
rival nt North Creek ho boarded tho spo
clnl train, which at onco pulled In tho
direction of Buffalo. Hu did not complain
of fatigue, but looked somewhat palo and

but they were not afforded an opportunity
to sco the president. Tho doors of tho
prlvato car lu which he Is traveling wero

llco kept the crowd from tho stops ot tho

Whllo the New York Central express was

"No, sir."
"Have any arrangements been mado to

"No, sir," Mr. Loeb replied, nnd then ho
continued: "You may say that no arrance-
metits havo boen nmdo ut nil of any de
scription. I do not know what will bo dono
nt Buffalo. No plans have yet been made.
All I can say Is this: That upon his ar
rival In Buffalo Mr. Roosovolt will becomo

stopped when ho was at Buffalo beforo."
In reply to a question as to whether
thero wero any Incidents on tbo trip from
tho camp to North Creek Mr. Loeb mild:

wore changed thrco times. Ho arrived at
iNorth Creek at 5:20 this morning and left

Inquiry wsb made of the president as to
whether an extra eeoilon ot congreso would
bo called by him and he o!d thero was no
fundamental law requiring the calling of
congress together upou the succession of a
vice president to tho presidency, and nfter
consultation with the cabinet they had de
cided that no such extra sctslon was neces
sary. The president after tho mooting saw a
few personal friends and then after putting
on hla bat said to Secrstary Hoot: "Let us
take a little walk; it will do us both good,"
Secretary Hoot assented and they walksd
out on the porch. His hest, Mr, Alnsloy
Wilcox, taldi "Mr. President, shan't I go

I am going for a short walk up the street

When ho got down to the foot of the
walk n couplo of police and a couple of
detectives In citizens' clothes started to fol
low him. He turned nnd told his secretary
to tell thcru that he did not desire any pro
tection. "I do not want to establish tho preceden
of going nbout guarded," ho said.
Tho policemen and detectives touched
their hats, but before- hi had gono a hundred

to shako hands and say goodby to Sec
retary Hoot. Some of tho crowd recognised
him and ho was surrounded. Tho police
