Many sensational reports are being circulated about Cabinet , action looking to tho apprehension and prosecution of Emma Goldman anil leaders of Anarchist organizations, ef mysterious directions from the s cretary of war to the chief of police here and, of developments of a startling nature tLut are anticipated. Tho great majority of the-e reports, in the vjords of a Cabinet member, "are manufactured out of whole cloth." The question of -the prosecution of Czolgocz, the Cabinet is unanimously of opinion, is purely a local affair. There 13 no government statute) covering an asFault upon the President of the United States and. In the eye of the law, the crime of last Friday is merely a local offense committed against a private citizen In violation of the laws ot the State of New York and of Erie county. The national government can have no- hand in the prosecution of a Jrxal offender; his trial will take place in the local courts. Tho only request .Secretary Root has made to the superintendent of police and the district attorney feere was one designed to prevent the I would-be assassin from being made a hero of by exploitation. Mr. Root's view in this respect was shared by other members of the Cabinet and the local authorities have Hone everything in their power to comply "With it. They have declined to allow reporters to have access to the prisoner or even to Fee him. Of course, if Czolgocz had accomplices they will be ferreted out and all the aid which the government can furnish will be employ d, but it can be stated upon the authority of a Cabinet officer that no wholesale proceedings againpt Anarchists are contemplated. j ' AHItHST OF MAGGIO.
Alleged Anarchist Who Predicted the I'rcNident'n AMiNninntlon. SILVER CITY, N. M;, Sept. D.-Antonio Maggio, the musician and alleged Anarchist, who Is said to have predicted the assassination of President McKinley before October, 1901, was arrested at San Rita, a mining camp near Silver City, N. M., this evening by United States Marshal Forakcr on instructions from Washington. Maggio has been playing a piano In a saloon at Santa Rita for some time, lie is ald to have frequently made the prediction that the President would be killed before Oct. 1, since coming to this section in February last. He is quoted as saying that Emperor William of Germany will be the next ruler assassinated. i:mma goldman avaxtkii. She ami Other Preacher of AMninatlon 31 ny lie Deported. NEW YORK. Sept. 9A special to the Herald from Buffalo says: "That there was a conspiracy in which many besides Czolgocz were concerned, and which had the destruction of President McKinley as its purpose, Is the firm conviction of all the members of tho Cabinet and of the Buffalo police. An agent of the United States Seqret-serviee said the theory is held that Emma Goldman, the Anarchist, was the prime mover in this plot, which may have contemplated a series of crimes, 0 which the murder of the President was only the beginning. Kmma Goldman was in Buffalo last Monday. That has been known to the police for twenty-four hours. Sh was here under an assumed name.

ous efforts le made to eradicate them. Secretary Root is particularly earnest in urging this. Few believe that Czolgocz was alone in the crime, or that be has been anything more thai a mere instrument under the e-mtrol of the real conspirators. That other hmI important arrests are contemplated in the near future is known to be a fact."
aot a ni:mti:v. Report Thnt C'xolgnex I Such Relented ly Soiit of Ixrnel. CINCINNATI. Sept. . The board of delegates of the American Hebrew Congregations, Simon Wolf President and Leo Wise secretarj' pro tempore, to-day issued the following: "The resolutions adopted by the PolishAmericans at St. Lomentius Catholic Church in Philadelphia that Leön Czolgocz. the assassin of I 'resident McKinley, is a Hebrew by birth, are untrue. In proof of this statement we refer to an interview with the Rev. B. F. Rosinski. of Cleveland, pastor of St. Stanislaus Catholic Church. Mr. Rosinski says that as far back as four years ago he asked Czolgocz for a contribution to the church, and was surprised at his refusal to give it. "In that interview the Czolgocz family is spoken of as having li veil in Cleveland for Ufteen years past. We do not in the slightest degree desire to insinuate that the Catholic Church is in the remotest degree responsible for the dastardly act of the miscreant Czolgocz. for neither that church nor any other that we know of inculcates murder and treason into its adherents." To Rc Rxpelled from K. (i. 11. YOUNGSTOWN, -O., Sept. O.-Steps are being taken ty State oflicers of the Knights of the Golden Ragle in this city to expel from the order Ieon Czolgocz, who entered the order at Cleveland under the assumed name of Frederick Nieman. EMMA IS IRIQLITOUS. Lnt Seen In Kentucky, According to Col. Jack Chitin. FRANKFORT, Ky., Sept. 9. Col. Jack Chinn, the Kentucky turfman, who arrived here to-night, says the Chesapeake & Ohio train which arrived here at 6:13 and passed through to Louisville carried a woman passenger believed to be Kmma Goldman. She Prot on the train at Jersey City, and Col. Chinn says that a male passenger on the train, whose name he will not give, but who has seen Kmma Goldman, was positive it was she. The police sent telegrams from here to the police In Louisville. Chicago and St. Louis. The woman suspee-. Colonel Chinn says, is undoubtedly a Polo and that the resemblance to Emma Goldman's pictures was so strong that he is convinced it was she. Mny Have Been Hmmu Goldman. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Sept. 9. Reporters who went through the Chesapeake Sc Ohio train that arrived In Louisville to-night were unable to lind a woman in any way resembling Emma Goldman. At noon today a woman who was a stranger to the proprietor of the Boston shoe store at New Albany, Ind., entered the store and asked to see a copy of a morning paper. She rpilekly turneil the pases until she found a picture of Emma Goldman, when she immediately laid down the paper and left tho store. Some ef the persons who saw her gay they think she was Emma Goldman. MO PROOF OF A PLOT. Cleveland Poliee l imbic to Find Trace of n Conspiracy. CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 9.-SuperIntend-ent Corner, of the Cleveland police elepartment, to-day gave out an official statement regarding the alleged anarchistic plot to take the life of the President. He states that the Cleveland police force have been following up the meagre threads of evidence presented, but that they can find no proof whatever that such a plot existed. It is quite evident that Leon Czolgocz was an element of discord in his own family anel that he never was popular even with his own people. His taciturn disposition and eiueer ways isolated him from relatives and friends and his socialistic tentlencies appear to be regarded as the vagaries of a weak mind. According to a statement made by Detective Doran, Czolgocz received $7o from his people on account of his equity in the farm near this city. This was paid to him by "his brother Jacob's wife as part payment for his interest, Leon desiring to leave the city, his interest to revert to the brother Jacob. The farm was subsequently sold and Leon still has J.7) coming to him on account. The statement that Czolgocz received 51" from Newburg Anarchists to take him to Chicago is evidently purely surmise and finds no credence with the authorities. There is still a strong Impression among residents of Newburg that a ring of anarchists exists In that locality and that they are working in conjunction with Chicago Anarchists. SCOLHIXG CHICAGO. Poliee on the Lookout for Emma Goldman Anarchist Held. CHICAGO, Sept. 9. Nearly all the efforts of the police here are now centered upon locating Emma Goldman and a score of detectives are scouring every part of the city where she was ever known to have been. Capt. Thomas Porter, of the United States secret service, has a number of men working hard to connect any of the local Anarchists with the plot to kill the lresidtnt. Several who were suspected are said to have left the city and no trace of them can be found. Chief O'Neil announced that Kmma Goldman is under surveillance not far from Chicago, although not In this city. He insisted that she had been located, and intimated that she will be arrested soon. The following description of Miss Goldman was furnished by the chief: Between thirty and thirty-five years old; about live feet two or three Inches high; pale complexion; thin features, and weight about 140. She has a heavy head of lightish brown hair, slightly Roman nose, Jewish cast of countenance and rather full lips. She is dressy and stylish In appearance and wears spectacles. The nine Anarchist under arrest here were brought before Magistrate'Prendiville to-day. At the request of the city attorney tho hearing was postponed until Sept. 19 in trder to allow a more complete investigation of the charge that they conspired to murder the President. Several of the prisoners have admitted acquaintance with the would-be assassin Czolgocz and the police are working on the theory that the President's assailant was inspired to do tho eleed by the teachings he received wdiile here last July. The six male prisoners were held without bail pending the hearing, while the three women arrested with them were held in bonds of $3.Vh. After a conference between Assistant City Prosecutor Owens and Attorney Leopold Saltiel. the case against Julian Mechllanic, Maria Isaak and Maria Isaak, jr.. was nolle prossed for want of evidence and the three women freed. A 31 II lTS at riTTsnritci. Two Disciple of Rmmn (iolilmnn Taken Into Custody. PITTSBURG, Pa.. Sept. 9 Carl Nold and Harry Gordon, well-known Pittsburg Anarchists and itdimate friends of Emma Goldman, were arrested at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Nold was a friend of Berkmann, who shot II. C. Frlck. Superintendent of Police O'Mara believes that if Emma Goldman had anything to do with formulating or urging the commitment of the crime that placed the life of President McKinley In grave danger, thee two men should know something of the circumstances. The police ejf Buffalo have been informed of the arrest, with the purpose of getting whatever Information they may have. Gordon is known as the head of the local Anarchistic followers ot Emma Goldman's teachings, and it was at his house that Emma Goldman and and other Anarchists stopped. His house will be searched for evidence to connect him with the attempted assassination of President McKinley, other arrests are expected to follow, and by to-morrow there will be in custody all the local Anarchists known to the police. A thorough search of the abode of Cordon and Nold failed to re veal anything incrimituitlrg further than a large mass of a:iarchistie literature. A lumber of l"tttr w-re sheared also, but so far as the rMeiai. can make out none had any bearing on the crime of C:to!;oez. No further arrests were mid, it is learned on what is considered good authority that the arrest of the two men wjui made udou a, tele tranhic rtuuesU
from the police department of Buffalo ai.d that the Buffalo otliciais have orderett them held pending further Instructions, it is also said that Emma Goldman has been located at some point in Ontario, which gives rise to the Mipkion that she may have been directly connected with the attempted assassination ot the President. Emma Goldrran was in this city Sunday, Sept. 1. and participated in a meeting of thirty-five Anarchists at the house of Goreion on Wvlie avenue. She has visited here frequently, and at the time nothing of unusual interest attached to her last arpearanee. At the time she was supposed to be here In connection with the steel strike, but she said she was only on a short vacation and was going to Cleveland the next day. There is a strong suspicion that the assailant of the President came to Pittsburg with Emma Ooldman on her last visit. She came here from Rochester and on her way stopped at Buffalo, the detectives who have been tracing her movements say. There was in her company a young man who answers in every way the general description of Czolgocz except that the suspect wore a very slight brownish mustache. This mysterious young man accompanied the woman from the depot to the house of Gordon.
IX ST. LOUS OX SATURDAY. Emma Goldman Ordered Her .Via II Forwarded to Chicago. ST. LOUIS, Sept. 9. It was learned today that Emma Goldman, the Anarchist, called for mail at the St. Louis postofflce at 9 a. m. Saturday. In the afternoon she called again and left a request that any mail received for her be forwarded to general delivery, Chicago. Two of Chief Desmonel's eletectives were in the corridor of the federal building to-day In the hope that Emma Goldman ndght possibly return. While some of the. postofllce officials think she may have gone to Chicago, where she dire cted that her letters be sent, others express the opinion that she may have given the Chicago address simply to thrtnv the detectives off her real track. Under orders from Washington United States Secret Service Operative John E. Murphy is now taking active part in the hunt for Emma Goldman. Mr. Murphy consuited with the postothce officials Sunday and Monday and issued an oreler Sunday that any mail for Emma Goldman be held. There is a feeling of marked disappointment throughout the federal building at the development that Emma Goldman was in the stronghold of the local authorities Saturday night and escaped without even being recognized. Andrew Sendlein, with whom Emma Goldman stopped for a month when she was in St. Louis three years ago, said to n Post Dispatch reporter this afternoon: "William A. Goldman has gone to -Litchfield, 111., but he will never find her there. She can hide anywhere in 'the country where there are Anarchists, and the police will not find her until she wants to show herself. When all talk is done she will come back here and .ive herself up." CZOLGOCZ I. I.MHAXA. Two of His Vaporing Placard Are Found enr w Albany. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. NEW .ALBANY, Ind.. Sept. 9. About two months ago a man appeared at Mooresville, four miles north of this city, and posted a number of placards in which he condemned President McKinley and predicted that he would soon meet his death. The man's actions incensed the residents of Mooresville, and he was forced to lcavo the vicinity. Several of the placards were, preserved, but no special significance was attached to them until since the attempt on the life of the President. One of the placards is in possession of County Commission Beaucond, and another is held by William Mosler, of this city. After referring to several verses of ScriDture the placard says: "McKinley has been spiritually condemned. He is an evil man and an Impostor. His hour is close and Roosevelt will soon be President. Hobart and McKinley put the poor in rags, and Hobart paid the debt and McKinley will pay it. I tell you man can get a ticket now quick to other planets. Just while they are in gay joy a gifted man will arise from tho slums. The red dress is a red omvn. High blood's lease of life is up." Assassin Czolgocz's mother, in an interview, said that he had been in Indiana this summer, anel the people of Mooresville believe the placards have some connection with his crime. noosevnrr ni'Aiinnn, Secret-Service Oflicers with II Im Wherever He Goes. NEW YORK, Sept. 9. A special to the World from Buffalo says: "Although Vice President Roosevelt eloes not know it the government has made more adeejuate provision for his protection than it did for that of President McKinley. Whenever the Vice President leaves the residence of Lawyer Ansley Wilcox, where he is staying, there are two or three secret-service men at hand to ward off any attempt that might be made on his life. The orders for the protection of the Vice President come from a source that is not discloseel. During his attendance at services in the First Presbyterian Church, Sunday, six secret service men occupied seats within a short distance of him. One of them took a seat on the box of his carriage when he drove away, and the others followed in another carriage. When he alighted at the Buffalo Club, during the afternoon, the detectives were close at hand, and when he called-at Mr. Milburn's house to inquire after the President's condition they were within a few feet of him. CZOLGOCZ AT ALPEVA. Two Years Ajjo He Declared the President AVonld Be Killed. DETROIT, Mich., Sept. 9. A special to the Journal from Alpena, Mich., says: "John Sherwood, a well-known landlooker, also a lumberman, says Leon Czolgocz worked In a cedar camp near South Branch, Thunder Hay river, two years ago. He went by the name of Fritz or Fred Nieman at that time. Sherwood says the fellow was a radical Anarchist and maele the statement: 'The government will fall in three or four vears. The President will bo killed. The Anarchists will win. The time for action will soon be here.' "lie talked of nothing eise to the men working In the camps. At times he was morose, but never showed any signs of insanity. He did not say he used to live in Alpena, but was recognized by men who knew him and his family." Czolgocz Possibly Visited Canton. CANTON, O., Sept. 9. Stories related to Mayor Robertson to-night give rise to a suspicion that the President's assailant was In Canton last Monday. A number of people claim to recognize a photograph received hero as a stranger seen on downtown streets Monday. The most direct story Is told by Charles Larson, a contractor, who claims to recognize the photograph as a stranger he saw at the railway station with another man and woman. He says he thought them "fakirs" attracteel here by the county fair, which opened that day, and that when he went to the fair grounds in the afternoon he made special efforts to locate the man. who had impressed him most, to see what particular game he was working. A street-car man claims to recognlze the photograph as that of a man who rode with him on the city lines three weeks ago. Preacher Want Anarchy Stamped Out NEW YORK, Sept. D.-The Methodist ministers of this city, at their meeting today, adopted a resolution which, expressing their sympathy with the President and Mrs. McKinley, concluded as follows: "We take occasion also to express our conviction that it is bight time that anarchy should be stamped out by the streng arm of the concurrent laws of nations." Immediately after the- opening of the public schools in th various boroughs of this city to-day the letter Mom the Board of Education, requesting each school principal to have appropriate reference to the attempted assassination of President McKinley, was read to the pupils, and praye rs were made for the speedy recovery of the President. CAPTAIN HALLS .NONCOMMITTAL.
lie Refnnes to Say Whether He Has Received Secret Instruction. Capt. Thomas E. Halls, local United States secret service officer, was asked last right concerning the truth of the report that be had, in common with all other secre t servite men in the country, received cipher dispatches from Chief Wilkie. at
Washington, containing instructions relative to hunting evidence against Anarchist Czolgocz, who attempted to assassinate President McKinley at Buffalo last Friday. "I am very sorry," said Captain Halls, "but I must decline to answer your question. I must not discuss any instructions that I might or might not have received." "Are you about to leave the city?" he was asked. "I am liable to be ordered out on business at any time," he replied. "I might leave Indianapolis to-morrow morning, but I cannot now say whether I will do so or not."
Minimi Goldman ot Here. A report reacheel this city last night to the effect that Emma Goldman, the Anarchist leader, was either in Indianapolis or had been here recently. The report stated that she left Tittsburg for Indianapolis more than a week ago. It is more than probable that she has been here, since she travels for a concern that sells office furniture and supplies, but no trace of her here could be found last night. THE PRESIDENT WILL LIVE (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) which this would impose on him. On the contrary-, Mr. Roosevelt has been one of the most positive in the conviction that the President would recover. During the long period of Garfield's illness nice distinctions arose as to what constituted the disability of the President within the meaning of the Constitution; whether when the physical faculties were benumbed, while the mental faculties were unimpaired, there was any elisability as meant by the Constitution. But fortunately there has been no such issue presented on this occasion, and the Vice President himself has been primarily responsible for the avoidance of any thought of the temporary exercise of executive functions by him. Nor has there been any occasion for the exercise of executive authority, for such minor routine matter, as it comes, can readily be left until the present emergency has passed. Twice during the day and again this evening the Vice President has called at tho Milbuin residence to inquire as to the President's condition. During the afternoon call he met several of the Cabinet officers and Senator Hanna, and spent a short time with them in informal discussion. On the streets Mr. Roosevelt has been the center of respectful attention, but he has met this with dignity and composure. Despite senseless remarks that he was going about guarded by secret service men, he has positively declined to have anything like a guard near him. One yfjf his remarks to-day, in speaking to tho two laborers, who greeted him, struck a popular chord. They had suggested that he might be afraid to bo stopped. "No, Indeed," he replied. "You men are our protection, and the foul deed of Friday will only make you more vigorous In protecting those whom you elect to office." Emperor Nicholas gave happy expression to the world-wide solicitude over the President in a messago which was given out during the day. It is addressed to the President, and after expressing his happiness at the President's improve'ment, adds that he joins with the universal world In wishing a speedy recovery. ixciDCvrs of Tin: day. Scenes nt the Mllbnrn House and Talks vfith, Doctors nnd Others. 1 BUFFALO, Sept. 9. President McKinley Iftas gone through the early part of tho crisis in his case without material sacrifice of strength or the appearance of dangerous symptoms. To some persons there was an unsatisfactory note in the first bulletin of tho morning in the reference to the restless night passed by the President. Some consolation was drawn from the statement that the sufferer had slept fairly well, but tho general effect of the bulletin was to break down some of the prevailing optimism and create fresh anxiety as to immediate developments in the case. The circumstances of the previous day had been favorable, and the popular anticipation was that the tidings from the sick room would continue to be encouraging. The bulletin created a feeling of uneasiness that seemed to be shared by all who read it. It was known that the patient was well within the crisis, and the fear was created that the restlessness was the forerunner. of some of the dire things feared as possible results of the wounds. It was also pointed out that it was one of the few unfavorable things said by the official bulletins, and several disturbing rumors were put in circulation. The general state of the sufferer remained unchanged, however. A slight decline In temperature and an inclination of the pulse and respiration to return toward normality were favorable conditions, and the official statement gave an assurance that no unfavorable symptoms had shown themselves. As stated, the tone of the 6 a. m. bulletin in referring to the President's somewhat restless night gave temporary apprehension, but thi3 was speedily dispelled by the results of a consultation held by the doctors from 8 to 9 o'clock and officially announced at the latter hour. This disclosed a marked improvement in the pulse and temperature. Aside from these pathological features the doctors gave the cheering information, free from all technicalities of science, that the President's condition was becoming more and more satisfactory and that untoward complications were becoming less likely. Besides their officially signed utterances the doctors gave individual expressions reinforcing the buoyant and confident tone. They made known, too, that the President's mind was clear, his mental faculties as vigorous as ever and that he retained his cheerful, happy disposition. He was even ready to talk with the doctors, but they restrained him to a considerable extent. CONFIDENCE RESTORED. These positive assurances gave to the members of the Cabinet and to the relatives and nearest friends of the President a feeling of confidence little short of absolute certainty that the President was now well on the way to recovery. Without exception those who came from the Milburn house expressed this same confident view. Among those who .called to receive the good news and then to repeat it to the many anxious watchers were Attorney General Knox. Secretary Wilson. Postmaster General Charles Emory Smith, Senator Hanna. Abner McKinley, Myron T. Herrick. Senator Fairbanks. Controller Dawes and many others holding the closest relations with the President. The doctors began assembling about S o'clock and it was 9:15 before any of them came away from the Mllburn house. Pending their conference there was an anxious wait. Several visitors arrived, including ex-Postmaster General BIssell and Charles P. Sanger. Mr. Bissell was one of the first to emerge from the house after the doctors had completed their consultation, and in a brief geneial way he summarized the situation by saying that the conditions were favorable, although he himself had no eietails. A few moments later Dr. Rowell Park and Secretary Wilson came out together. Dr. I'ark answered the many Inquiries with a cheerful and very positive assurance of confidence. "The situation is fairly satisfactory," said he. "and there are no symptoms to cause alarm." He was asked if the earlier bulletins referring to the President's somewhat restless night warranted any apprehension. -Not in the least." he replied, "it is perfectly natural that a patient In the PresldentV condition r.hould have tnie periods of restlessness. Rut he is receiving no anaerthctics. He Is fully conscious at all
times when he Is awake and his mind is clear." When asked if the President conversed with those about him. the doctor said the patient was quiet able to talk and did 1-0 a? far as the physicians permitted, although they were reluctant to permit him to sap any of Lis energy in this way. MR. WILSON'S PREDICTION. Secretary Wilson, who moved on down Delaware avenue, while Dr. Park was talking to the newspaper men, was overjoyed with the word which the physicians had brought from the sick room. "The President will get well," he said several times. "1 feel it, and I am sure the doctors now feel it. Of course, the danger ioint has not been passed, but the continued absence of unfavorable symptoms strengthens our hope. The period for peritonitis to appear is rapidly passing away, and there is not a sign of inflammation. The promptness with which the operation was performed, and the skill with which it was accomplished are telling their story. The tissues were suturenl so quickly that they probably began to heal immediately. The President's good health, and the long life of careful living behind him are in his favor, but above all his indomitable will and his fine courage are the factors counted upon to pull him through. He has made up hi3 mind to live, and live he will. The rise in his temperature during the night was somewhat disturbed, but his febrile condition is better this morning and our hopes continue in the ascendant. The fact that his slumber during the night was restless is not to be wondered at. All the conditions under which he is living are abnormal. The water and liquid nourishment which he is receiving are being administered hypodermically, and this fact alone would account for his restlessness." Dr. Herman Mynter came from the Milburn house at 9:3f) o'clock. He said: "Everything is satisfactory. Every hour that passes with no decidedly unfavorable results is encouraging and indicative of final recovery." Dr. Eugene Wasdin, another of the consultation staff, emergeel from the house a few minutes later, lie said: "There are no distressing symptoms. The restlessness of the patient during the night is not serious and is to be expected, when it is understood that he slept during the day yesterday." M'BURNEY SAYS RIGHT THING. Dr. McBurney is quoted this morning as saying: "The President Is In an entirely satisfactory condition. Complications today are decidedly less likely to occur than yesterday." "You are not disturbed, then, over the somewhat restless night?" "No. A man who has been shot Isn't to be expected to sleep quietly." Mr. Abner McKinley, brother of the President, arrived at the house of Mr. Mllburn at 10:05 a. m. and was immediately admitted. Senator Fairbanks and Controller of the Currency Dawes came from the house together and their smiling faces indicated the satisfaction prevailing among those nearest the President. "Splendid, splendid!" said Senator Fairbanks, referring to the doctor's last report. Just then Abner McKinley and several friends arrived, and there was an interesting group on the lawn, with the tall figure of Senator Fairbanks in the center and Messrs. McKinley and Dawes on either side. The good news from the sickroom was imparted to the Preslelent's brother, and the latter's friends and all joined in heart-felt expressions of relief. Intense anxiety had been felt over the outcome of the morning conference, and the result lifted a great load of apprehension from those nearest and dearest to the President, giving them greater courage than had been felt at any time before. . When Abner McKinley came from the house at 10:43 he repeated the expressions of confidence given t3 those who had preceded him, but added no new details on the situation. Senator Hanna drove up as Mr. McKinley left. The senator seemed to be in a happy frame of mind, as the satisfactory bulletin had already reached him. When a number of photographers leveled their cameras at him he smilingly asked: "How many times a dny do you fellows expect to do that to me?" Col. Myron T. Herrick, who accompanied the senator, added the jocular comment: "Instead of the camera, you had better put the X-rays on the senator." These passing remarks reflected the happy state of feeling which prevailed among those near the President. Colonel Herrick and the senator remained some time in the house. Henry B. McFarland, president of the Board of Commissioners of the District of Columbia, came from the house at 11 o'clock. Dr. Hermann Boer anel his wife, formerly Miss Mabel McKinley, daughter of Abner McKinley, called about noon to see Mrs. McKinley.
CORTELYOU MORE HOPEFUL. Secretary Cortelycu remained with the President throughout the early hours of the day and then came out to get a breath of air. The secretary has been among th? very few admitted into the sick room, even the members of the Cabinet and others close to Mr. McKinley in public life being kept out of the chamber where the President lies. Mr. Cortelyou shared in the feeling of satisfaction caused by the bulletin, but beyond that he would give no publie statement on the situation. Several others who have been at the Milburn house constantly came out for a rest, and one of these, who has had exception for observation, made the following general remarks: "The situation is entirely encouraging. The President's restlessness last night is quite natural, and at this time any other condition might excite apprehension. But it is too early to say that the very last element of danger is passed. Another twentyfour hours probably will be sufficient to permit a conclusive judgment to be formed. In the meantime the President is giving every outward evidence of improvement. He is calm and clear-htaded, and he would talk if it were not that the doctors prevent it. There has not been a word said among the doctors to-day as to another operation. It appears to be accepted that in the present progressive stage of the case it is not a time to consider an operation." It is to be noted that this statement suspends final judgment for another twentyfour hours and is a more conservative view of the situation than that so frequently voiced during the morning. The Glenny residence, adjoining the Milburn house, has been placed at the disposal of Secretary Cortelyou and the members of the Cabinet for such use as they may desire to make of it. It has not been leased as erroneously reported. The use of it was siiiipiy leimereu in me same spirit In which almost everything in the city of Buffalo has been offered. Secretary Cortelyou has moved a part of the White House staff into the residence to secure greater quiet in the Milburn houses and practically all of the work of answering dispatches and letters i being done there The members of the Cabinet also met there yesterdav to discuss the request of acting Secretary Hackett for the detail of an officer of the Department ?t iU?iic t0 aid JU(lKe Advocate S y in the Schley court of inquiry. The Glenn? family has not moved out. Only two or three rooms on the lower floor are beim? used by the White House staff ing MRS. M'KINLEY IN SICKROOM. Mrs. McKinley was admitted to the sickroom this morning and had. a short "stay with her afflicted husband. The veil of domestic privacy is, of course, thrown over the details of the meeting and any accounts of it are necessarily suppositions. Mrs. McKinley bore up well and displayed the same fortitude which has characterized her, as well as the President, since the tragic event occurred. Although the-e have been statements that Mrs. McKinley has not been apprised of the manner in which the President was injured, it can be stated positively that she Is fully aware that he has been shot, although it has not been necessary to dwell on the harrowing details of the affair. 'As much as possible she had been buoyed up by the encouraging attitude of the physicians, and she has responded by giving all her strength toward passing through the ordeal with calmness. As indicating the growing strength of the President the following incident of the morning is relate-d by those inside the Milburn house familiar with the facts. Mr. McKinley had been lying for a long time in one position, but during this morning he asked if he could change this position. The doctors in attendance gave their assent whereupon the President changed his position by his own effort, without difficulty and without pain. Secretary Hitchcock and Senator Hanna emerged from the Milburn house shortly after noon. The senator appeared to be very jubilant. He stopped a moment before entering his automobile to express his great satisfaction at the President's condition. "Every bulletin is an improvement." said he. "and the last is the best of all. Iist nlKht was a restless e.ne, but the President passe. 1 it in safety without a change tor the worse. The crucial period will probably extend through another day, possibly longer, but every hour now is 'a victory." "Is the President's mind clear?" "Clear as a bell." replied the senator promptly. "Doe he talk?" "As much us he is allowed to," he answered smilingly. "Mrs. McKinley was with the President for some little time this morning." he ad led. "She is doing splendidly." Then, with another admonition to the photographers to turn their batteries away, he and Secretary Hitchcock climbed into the auto and rode away to the BufTalo Club. Mrs. McKinley started for a drive at 2:.W. She was accompanied by Mrs. Lafayette
McWilllams. The absence of the Pre.-i-tient's wife from the house gave assurance tnat the conditions were not such as to excite any alarm. Mrs. McKinley returned irom her drive at 3: p. m. The physieians held a conference at 2 p. m. It was finished at 3:45, and the two first physicians to leave. Dr-. Mynter and asdin, with smiling faces declared: "Nothing new, gentlemen. The examination was perfectly satisfactory and the patient is improving." Three members of the Cabinet Ga;e, Hitchcock and Wilson arrived while the doctors were in consultation. This gave rise to a report that the Cabinet officials would advise with the doctors as to a contemplated operation, but Secretary Gape promptly silenced such reports. He said that everything was hifihly encouraging, and he and Attorney tleneral Knox would leave this evening for Washint;ton. Vice President Roosevelt. Secretary of War Root and Ansley Wilcox called at the house at 3:50 p. m. and were admitted. ItOOSRVKt.T HAS FAITH.
He I Positive the President Will RecoverAdvice to Toller. BUFFALO, N. Y., Sept. Vice President Roosevelt did not leave the Wilcox mansion, where he is staying, until after the noon hour, and then be walked tho mi! to the presidential quarters. Just after he had left the mansion he was accosted by a colored man, who was raking a lawn. "Governor, may I shake hands with you?" he said. "You certainly may," answered the Vice President, turning quickly and grasping his hand, and then as two laborers, with dinner pails and tools slipped up he shook hands with them. "Ain't you afraid to be shot?" asked one of the men. "No. sir," he snapped out, "and I hope no official of this country will ever be afraid. You men are our protection and the foul deed done the afternoon of Friday will only make you the more vigorous in your protection of the lives of those whom you select to office. Such men as you can work with the ballot the salvation of the country without resort to violence." As he walked on. the Vice President discussed tho case of the President and his condition. He said in part: "I believe that the bulletins being issued are none too sanguine . In fact, 1 know they are not. I am perfectly positive that the President will recover, and more than that, I believe the illness will be brief and the recovery rapid. I had two men and a relative shot in the same manner in the Cuba campaign. They lay in the marshes for some time unattended, and yet they recovered. I may say that 1 have even deeper information than the bulletins, and I may say with great confidence that the President will recover." The Vice President arrived at the Milburn house at 12:20 and was at once admitted. He remained about ten minutes, and when he came out reiterated what he said above. Vice President Roosevelt will not leave the city until the physicians of the President issue a bulletin or give an opinion that the President positively will recover. To-night, in company with his host, Ansley Wilcox, he went out for a short time. He is without doubt the most sanguine of the government officials here unless it be Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, who predicts that the President will be out in two weeks. Vice President Roosevelt said to-nit;ht: "I came here because I believed my place was near the President and I will not leave until the situation has entirely cleared up. If I was predicting when I shall leave here I would say to-morrow because 1 firmly believe that the physicians will announce to-mor-rcw that there is absolutely no tloubt that the President will recover. I have been twice to the President's temporary home to-day and I have seen nothing but smiling, happy faces, including a host of physicians, that would not be so if the bulletins did not tell the exact truth." The Vice President was asked to express an opinion on legislation against anarchy. He said: "It is not the time or place to discuss such matters. The only thing to be thought of now Is the President's complete, rapid recovery." SIIOWEHKIl WITH 3IOXRY. Colored 3Ian "Who Defended the Pres lilent Rewarded by the Crowd. FITTSBURG, Sept. 9. J. B. Coen and O. T. Hill, of Homestead, who returned from Buffalo yesterday, said that James Parker, the colored waiter from New York, who prevented Czolgocz from shooting President McKinley the third time by knocking down and jumping on the assassin, was simply showered with money after his heroism displayed in the Temple of Music and his declaration that he wanted only ten seconds more to deal with the assassin. Notes of J3 and $50 were, according to Mr. Coen, shoved into Parker's hands anel pockets before he left the .grounds, and soon after he reached his hotel checks for him began to arrive. The first two were for $200 each and the next for $300. The Homestead men say that several thousand dollars were given to Parker, and that at the rate at which the contributions started they bei eve he will realize at least $100,000 from thetse who appreciate his prompt and heroic action. Half an hour after the tragedy the PanAmerican grounds were deserted, the crowds leaving and spending the evening in front of the bulletin boards In Buffalo, all idea of pleasure at the exposition having been driven away by their anxiety concerning the President's condition. WASHINGTON, Sept. 9. A suggestion was thrown out In the executive departmnt to-day that it would be proper for the American people to do something for the colored man, Parker, whose prompt action possibly saved the President's life. The would-be assassin himself complained that it was the stunning blow delivered upon him by Parker that prevented him from firing another shot. Inquiries are nting made for Parker's full name and history. Secretary Hay Starts for JInfTnlo. NEWBURY, N. II., Sept. 9. Secretary of State John Hay left Newbury to-day for Ruffalo.
