Feelfuc Tribute DelUered Uy tlir Iml. nent 1'rclatr la Haltlmore Cathedral. RALTIMORR, Sept. If. Memorial services were almost universal to-day through thU State, many, congregations meeting and uniting In other than their own places of worship. Perhaps the most important and impressive were the ceremonies at the cathedral hi this city, at which Cardinal Gibtw.n delivered the following eulogy: "it has been my melancholy experience In the course of my sacred ministry to be BtartlMi by the assassination of thr e Presidents of the United State.-. Abraham Llneo'n was shot in WO. James A. GarI.eld was mortally wounded in ISsl. and "William McKinley received a fatal wound on the fcth day of September. Mr. Lincoln was snot in a theater; Mr. Garfield was shot wiiiie about to take a train to enjoy a needed vacation, and our late beloved President fell by the hand of an assassin whiie lending the prestige of his name and influence to the sucess of a national exposition. "In the annals of crime it is difficult to land an Instance of murder so atrocious t wanton and meaningless as the assassination of Mr. McKinley. Some reason or pretext has b-n usually assigned for the sudUen taking away of earthly rulers. "Iialta.-sar. the impious King of Chaldea, pent his last 'nieht in revelling and drunkenness. II? was suddenly struck dead by th3 hand of the Lord. How different was the life of our chief magistrate. No court in Luroj or in the civilized world was more conspicuous for moral rectitude and purity; or more free from the breath of scandal thn the official home of President McKinley. H would have adorned any court in Christendom by his civic virtues. "Brutus plunged his dagger into the heart of Caesar because of his over-wcen-lng ambition. Whatever may hive been tho errors of judgment on the part of our late President (and who is free from them?) no man can honestly charge him with tyranny, or official corruption. "The Redeemer of mankind was letrayed by the universal symbol of love. If I may reverently make the comparison the President was betrayed by the universal emblem of friendship. Christ said to Judas, 'Frfcend, betravest thou the son of man with a kiss?' The President could have yald to his slayer. 'Retrayest thou the head of tho Nation with the grasp of the hand?' He was struck down surrounded by a host of his fellow-citizens, every one of whom would have gladly risked his life In defense of his beloved chieftain. "Few Presidents were better equipped than Mr. McKinley for the exalted position which he ruled. When a mere youth he entered the I'nion army as a private soldier. During the civil war ha was promoted for gallant service on the lield of battle to the rank of major. He served his country Tor fourteen years in the halls of Congress, and towards the close of his term he became one of the most conspicuous figures in that body. He Afterwards served his State as Governor. "As President he was thoroughly conversant with the duties of his oflw-e and could enter into its most minute details. His characteristic virtues were courtesy and politeness, patience and fortbearar.ee and mafcterly solf-control under very trying circumstances. When unable to grant a favor, he had the rare and happy talent to disappoint the applicant without offending him. "The domestic virtues of Mr. McKinley were worthy of all praise. lie was a model husband. Amid the pressing and engrossing duties of his official life, he would, from time to time, snatch a few moments to devote to the invalid and loving partner of his Joys and sorrow. Oh, what a change has come over this afflicted woman. Yesterday she was the first lady of the land. To-day he is a disconsolate and brokenhearted widow. Let us beseech Him who comforted the widow of Nairn that He console this lady in her hour of desolation. "It Is a sad reflection that some fanatic or miscreant has it in his power to take the life of the head of the Nation and to throw the whole country into mourning. It was no doubt this thouerht that inspired fome writers within the last few days to advise that the l'rUUnt should henceforth abstain from public receptions and handshaking, and that greater, protection should l given to his person. You rnfuht have htm surrounded wltii cohorts, defended with bayonet3 and have him followed by arguseyed detectives, and yet he will not be proof against the stroke of th assassin. Ar not the crowned heads of Kurope usually attended by military forces, and yet how many of them have perished at the hand of some criminal. "No: let the President continue to move among his'- people and take them by the hand. The strongest shield of our chief magistrate is the love and devotion of his fellow-citizens. Th most effective way to stop uch crimes is to Inspire the rising generation with greater reverence for the constituted authorities and a greater horror for any Insult or injury to their persons. All seditious language should be suppressed. Incendiary speech is too often an Incentive to criminal aims on the part of many; to .criminal acts on the part of many to whom the transition from words to deeds 1 easy, let it be understood, once for all, that the authorities are determined to crush the serpent of anarchy whenever it lifts Its venomous head. "We have prayed for the President's life, tut It did rot please God to grant our petition. Let ho one Infer from this that our prayers were in vain. No fervent prayer ascending to the throne of heaven remains unanswered. Let no one say what a lady SHOWERS TO-DAY. Fair Weather Probable on Saturday I l;ht. Variable Wind. WASHINGTON. Sept. 13.

What a beautiful spectacle to behold prayers ascending from tens of thousands of temples throughout the land to the throne of mercy.

I3nlogy ly One Who Twice Xomtnuteil McKinley for President. CINCINNATI, O.. Sept. 10.-At the hour of the McKinley funeral at Canton to-day everything stopped here. The steam and electric railways temporarily suspended traffic. All saloons, as well as business houses, closed. Roats on the ricr as well as everything on land made brief stops and the bells tolled. Music Hall was packed for an organ recital of funeral music before 11 a. rn. Then followed the memorial meeting, presided over by Mayor Julius Flekhman, who was a member ot McKinley's staff when the latter was Governor of Ohio. The Catholic festival chorus rendered "Lead, kindly light." "Nearer, my God, to Thee." and other numbers, the audience joining In singing "America." The feature of the occasion was the address of Senator J. B. Foraker. The gates of the fall festival were closed to-day. Music Hall is situated on the fall festival grounds, which were surrounded by over twenty thousand people, who made some disturbance because admission was by ticket only and they were held back by the police. After the rush for admittance was btopped profound silence prevailed and the disappointed multitude dispersed. In Music Hall, with the aisles full and all standing room taken the dropping of a pin could have been heard at any time, especially during the prayer of Dr. Clark anil the address of Senator Forakf r. There were those In the audience who had heard Senator Foraker present McKinley's name to two ptate conventions for Governor and to two national conventions for President, but he was never so eloquent at any convention as In hl funeral oration to-day. Senator Foraker, In part, said: "In the vigor of robust manhood; at the very height of his powers; in the possession of all his faculties: in the midst of a great work of world-wide importance; in the enjoyment of the admiration, love and affection of all clashes of our people to a degree never before permitted to any other man; at a time of profound peace, when nothing was occurring to excite the .pasnions of men; when we were engaged in a celebration of the triumphs of art, science, literature, commerce, civilization and all that goes to make up the greatest prosper-ltj-, advancement and happiness the world has ever known; surrounded by thousands of his countrymen, who were vying with each other in demonstrations of friendship and good will, tho President of the United States, without a moment's warning, was stricken down bv an assassin who. while greeting him with one hand, shot him to death with tho other. "History has no precedent for such treachery and wickedness since Joab, stroking his beard as though to kiss him, inquiring. 'Art thou in health, my brother'.' tmote unsuspecting Amasa in the fifth rib and hel out his bowels to the ground.' We can scarce realize that such a crime was possible much less that it has been actually committed, and our sorrow is yet too fresh, our grief too poignant and our Indignation too acute for us to contemplate It dispassionately or discuss it considerately. "Rut while we cannot now speak becomingly of the murderer and his awful crime, we ran fittingly employ this hour to commemorate the virtues of his victim and to recount in part at least his great services to his country. The allotted age of man is threescore years and ten. but William McKinley was not yet lifty-nine when his career ended. In these short years he did a wondrous work. In Its accomplishment he was unaided by fortuitious circumstances. He was of humble origin and without iniiuential friends except as he made them." The senator then reviewed McKinley s public services from his enlistment In to his death, a period of forty years. He laid special stress upon his service of fourteen years in Congress, in which capacity he was already entitled to the highest rank before becoming Governor or President. He called him the successor of Henry Clay in maintaining a protective system, "contending that the way to ever reach free trade, or tariff for revenue only, as to articles of our own production, without inJury to the country, was through tho operation of the policy of protection, whereby we would in time reach the point where, fully supplying our own demands, we could go into the markets of the world to dispose of whatever surplus we might have." Continuing, the senator said: "He died proud of his work and in the just expectation that time will vindicate his wisdom, his purpose and his labors and it will. "What he was not permitted to tinish will be taken up by other hands, and when the complete, crowning triumph romes it will rest upon the foundations he has laid. His great loss to the country will not be in connection with policies now in process of rolution. but rather in connection with new questions. What he has marked out and put the Impress of his great name upon will receive the unquestioned support of his own party and tho preat majority of the American people. He had so gained the confidence of his followers and of the whole country that all differences of opinion on new propositions would have yielded to his judgment. "The progress of events will not stop. Unsolved problems have no respect for the repose of nations. New questions will arise are arising have risen. With his calm, clear judgment and foresight he saw and appreciated all this. His last speech was a testimonial to this fact. Tt was in many respects the 'ablest, the most thoughtful and the most statesmanlike utterance he ever made. It was the triumphant sequel to his long years of sturdy battle for a protective tariff; a complete vindication of all his predictions in that behalf, and, at the same time, a Utting farewell to the American people, whom he had served so well. "Who can exaggerate the gratification he must have experienced In pointing out the Immeasurable prosperity that has resulted from the energizing effects of the policies he had done so much to sustain? Dwelling" upon the fact that we had now reached a point in the development of our Industries where we are not only able to supply our home markets, but are producirg a large and constantly increasing surplus, for which we must find markets abroad, he reminded us that if we would secure those markets and continue these happy conditions we must not only maintain cordial relations with other nations, but must t stablish such reciprocal relations of trade as will enable them to sell as well as to buy, and that in this great work we should utilize the protective element of existing duties where It is no longer needed for purposes of protection. Over the di tails thuv will doubtless be differences of opinion, hut as to the general preposition his words will live after him to speak with deceive authoritj. "The remarkable tale U not all told. No language can adequately tell of his devoted love and tender affection for the m valid partner of a'l his Joys and sorrows. Amidst his many honors and tryini: dutiis she ever reigned supreme in ids affections. The Ptory of this love has gone to the e:nN of the earth and is written la the hearts of all mankind everywhere. It is full of tenderness, full of path"" and full of honor. It will be repeated and cherished as long as the name of Willi in McKinley shall hve. "It was these great qualities of the hi art thnt gave him the place he holds in the affections of other peoph s. They claim him for humanity's take, bf cause they Und in him an expression of their highest aspirations. Ry common con. :it, he honored the whole human race, and all the race will honor him. He was thoroimhiy religious and too religious to he Kudty u" any bigotry.

And wlun the dread hour of dissolution overtook him and the last touching farewell had been spoken he sank to rest murmuring 'Nearer, my God, to The.' This was his last triumpn, and his greatest. His whole life was given to humanity, but In his death we find his most priceless legacy. "The touching story of that deathbed scene will rest on generations yet unborn like a soothing benediction. Such Christian fortitude and resignation give us a clearer conception of what wan in the apostle's mind when he exclaimed. 'O Death, where is thy sting?

Exercises were held in Mechanics' Hall this afternoon In honor of President McKinley. Long before tho hour set the house was packed and thousands could not gain admittance. Mayor O'Conne'I. Senator Hoar, Monsignor Conaty, president of the University of Washington, Professor Hall, of Clark's University, and Congressman Thayer were the speakers. Senator Hoar said In part: "The voice of love and sorrow to-day is not that which cometh from the lips. Since the tidings came from the dwelling at whose door all mankind were listening, silence, the inward prayer, the quivering lip, the tears of women and of bearded men have been the token of an affection whiclr no other man left alive has inspired. "This is the third time within the memory of men not yet called old that the head of the Republic has Ik en stricken down in his hish place by the hand of an assassin. Kach of them was a man of the people. "We shall, I hope, in due time, soberly, when the tempest of grief has passed by, find means for additional security against the repetition of a crime like this. We shall go as far as we can without sacrificing personal liberty, to repress the doctrine which in effect is nothing but counciling murder. "We shall, also, I hope, learn to moderate the bitterness of political strife and to avoid the savage attack on the motive and character of men who are charged by the people with public responsibilities in high places. This fault, while I think It is already disappearing from ordinary political and "sectional controversy, seems to linger still among our scholars and men of letters. The moral is, not that we should abate our zeal for justice and righteousness of our condemnation of wrong, but only that we should abate the severity of our judgment of the motives of men from whom we differ." MR. 1JRYAV SPEAKS. He Hope PerxounlitieM Will lie i:iliii innleil from Campaign. LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 19. Memorial services for the dead President were held at the Lindell Auditorium, into which over 5,wo people crowded, while nearly as many more clamored for admission. Overflow meetings were held at two nearby churches and practically the whole of the afternoon was occupied in the exercises. There was almost an entire cessation 'of business throughout the day. Tho auditorium services consisted of music, prayer and eulogies. Governor Savage presided, speaking briefly, and was followed in turn by Rev. Fletcher Wharton, G. M. Lambertson, II. M. Uushnell. Rev. Lewis Marsh, Chancellor 12. Benjamin Andrews, Congressman Street and W. J. Bryan. Mr. Bryan said in part: "As monuments reared by grateful hands to the memory of heroes testify to the virtues of the living as well as to the services of the dead. so. the sorrow that has overwhelmed our Nation, obliterating the distinctions of party, race and religion, is as complimentary to the patriotism of our peoplo as to our departed chief magistrate. But it is not strange that the people bow us one man over the bier of their illustrious fellow-citizen, not strange that the solemn stillness is broken only by the sacred hymns which he was wont to sing, not strange that all hearts turn in sympathy to the husbandless home at Canton. "The President's position made him a part of the life of all his countrymen, and the circumstances which attended his taking otf added indignation to grief indignation that even one murderous heart could be found in all the land, and grief that tho wicked purpose of that heart should have been consummated against one so gentle in spirit and so kind in word and deed. "This is neither the time nor the place for a discussion of remedies for anauhy. It can have no defenders in the United States. Government is a necessity and the delusion that society can exist without it is harmful, even when no violence is advocated, for it is the duty of every citizen of a republic to strive to make his government perfect in ever? detail, and this purpose is not only weakened entirely but destroyed by the doctrine that all governments are bad and should be overthrown." Mr. Bryan said no man appreciated more than himself the private character and public services and virtue of William McKinley. He concluded as follows: "It is unfortunate that in the best of political controversy partisanship sometimes becomes so strong as to cause Injustice to be done the motives of political opponents and it should be our constant aim to place our campaigns upon so high a plane that personalities will be eliminated and the issues made to turn upon the principles Involved. "Let us hope that this national affliction, which unites all factions in a common sorrow, wiil result in a broader charity and more liberal spirit among those who by different policies and through different parties seek to preserve the welfare and increaso tho glory of our common country." MR. STUYr.XSO.VS TRIIHTE. He Say McKinley' Life I nn Inspirntion to Von n Men. BLOOMINGTON, 111.. Sept. 19. Former Vice President Adlai Stevenson gave the principal address at Bloomington's memorial demonstration to-day. Mr. Stevenson's tribute to the dead President was in part as follows: "Blameless in private life, his personal integrity unquestioned, firm in his convictions of dutj true in his friendships, patriotic in his Impulses, of loftyaims ami purposes, gentle and loving to those to whom his tolls and cares were given, he will be to the young men of our country an example and an Inspiration." Of the assassination he said: "It avails little to hurl denunciation against the head of this latest assassin. Within a few days at most he will, under the forms of law, suffer the dread penalty of his crlnu?. It Is but cheap courage at best, whether from the street or from the pulpit, for any man to declare that had he been present he would gladly have been the avenger. Such teaching is a menace to tho well-being of soeiety. It may be that the temptation is often great to take the law Into our own hands. But let it not be forgotten that by so doing we weaken the bonds of human soeiety. aye, 'we but teach bloody instructions, which, being taught, return to plague the inventor.' Mob rule is destructive of all government." Mr. Stevenson concluded as follows: "The eminent statesman whose memory we now. honor has with ability and fidelity met the requiromt nts of his exalted station. His work i done. His hands are folded. His name is henceforth upon the list of the illustrious dead. Peace to his .ashes. May God comfort one most of all bereaved." AT THE WHITE HOUSE.

Minshall chemical and physical laboratory, which will cost in the neighborhood of $73,000 when completed. Is being rapidly pushed, although it will hardly be ready for occupancy before the beginning of the spring term. A new heating plant Is being put in. which will furnish steam to the four largest buildings. The football prospect is about as it always is at the beginning of the year, cons'derable room for Improvement, seemingly, but no more discouraging than many time when the team has proved to be among the best. Coach Chez is confident of accomplishing great gocd with the material he has on his hands now. Five or more of the old players will be back, among them some of the best that played last year, when the team was at the head of the second-class teams of the State. The first game will be played Monday, when the new 'varsity team will line up against a team made up of some of the best men the university has played during the last two or three years, who will come here for that one game only.
