IX 8:15 a. m. -Several of the presidents physicians have reached the Milbum house for the morning consulta tion which was set for a little later than usual today. The rain is falling steadily. MILBURN HOUSE? BUFFALO. Sept. 11. 3 p. jn.—President McKinley continues to show the most unmistakable evidence of taprovcment and recovery and the un easiness caused by last night's dressing of the abdominal wound has given way to more pronounced confidence than has existed at any time since the shooting The Incident of the dressing of the wounds had created some uneasiness, but at • o'clock the physicians' bulletin pro nounced the president in excelelnt condi tion and made known that he had slept well and had experienced some decided benefits from the dressing of the outer wounds. But-Che doctors did not confine them selves to the brief official bulletin. They were ready to frankly and fully discuss the case in all its bearings. As to the reopening of the abdominal incision this dismluwi as part of the treatment littounarj to the progress of such wounds. AS to the inner wounds, where the bullet penetrated the walls of the stomach, there was the most gratifying progress, as the stomach was now carrying on normal dlgegflve processes. The beef Juice, which was fed by the mouth for the first time last night had been assimi lated without the slightest indication that the wounds in the stomach retarded the processes of nature. The president himself showed many signs cf improvement. He was so cheery that one of the doctors remarked that he would let him smoke a cigar before long. He had shown not the slightest depression from the dressing of the wound last night. Mrs. McKinley had her usual brief morning visit with him. All of those about the president and many who came to inquire as to the pres ident's condition were cheered with con fidence akin to absolute certainty that the president was now on the high road to re covery. There continued to be talk of his early removal to Washington, although the doctors were not willing to place any such movement within two or three weeks, and some of them held that the climate here was much more conducive to his pro gress thaw that of Washington. Mrs. Mc- Ktn ley saw the president this morning. When the doctors arrived at the house this m sea tag they pewed her sitting in the up per corridor of the residence at work on her knitting. She was in good spirits and after the visit of the doctors they gave their assent to her visiting the sick room again. She remained only a minute, as the president's strength by needless visits, even XU salient's strength by needless visits, even by those nearest to him. Secretaries Hay, Wilson and Mltchcock arrived at the resi dence at 19:30 and » minutes later Gen eral Charles H. Grosvenor, Judge A. S. Thompson, an old personal friend of the president, who only reached the city this morning, and Frank Baird, of this city, were* ushered la. EVERY HOUR BRINGS STEADY IMPROVEMENT IN PRESIDENTS CONDITION. HOUSE, BUFFALO, Sept. IL—Th® doctors arrived for the morning consultation at l:M Dr. Park said before he entered the Milburn residence that If alarming stories had gone abroad as a re sult of last night's operation they were en tirely unwarranted. Everything, he de clared. was going satisfactorily. The tak ing eut of a few stitches, the redressing of the wound, he said, constituted an un important Incident and gave not the slight est ground for apprehension of complica tions. "The president has passed a very com fortabie night,' said the < o'clock morn ing bulletin of Drs. Rixey and Wasdin. the two physicians who remained at the pres ident's bedside throughout the night. The fact that the wound in the presi dent's abdomen is not healing by "first intenuon ' is not a feature at all unusual in such cases, explained one of the pres ident's physicians. On the contrary it Is usual for gunshot wounds to heal by what is termed "second intention," through granulation. It is usually the case with older persons, whereas In the case of young people they usually heal by "first intention.’* NOTHING BUT GOOD NEWS. “It is all good news." said one of the physicians as he reached the sidewalk, where half a hundred newspaper men were congregated. "The actions taken proved very benefi cial. and we are more confident in the president's recovery than at any time since be was shot. Everything te favora ble and we have tripled the amount of nourishment. giving him now three tea spoonful* of beef Juice every hour instead of one. But the president's recovery will be Mow. AU talk of him sitting up in a ■* few days and leaving Buffalo in a week is nonsense. I ska*, be satisfied if be can be moved in six weeks." Dr. Park was asked as to the operation of the bowels following the first adminis tration at beef Juice by the mouth last night. "The results have been excellent.** he replied, "and this morning we have in creased the beef Juice fed by the mouth." Dr. McBURNEY DESCRIBES WOUND. Drs. Mcßurney and Mann emerged from the bouse together at 10:« o'clock. Dr. Mcßurney indicated not the slightest anxiety and be expressed surprise when informed that alarmist stories had fol lowed the issuance of last night's bulletin. w the bulletin was perfectly frank.” said he to an Associated Press represen tative "We all united in the assurance that no complications could follow.” Dr. Mcßurney then explained the char acter of the Irritation which had made the reopening of the Incision necessary, s "It was caused,'' said he. ‘ just as we stated, by the fact that a piece of the president's coat was carried into the body -by the bullet, not far over an Inch.

Dr. Mcßurney said he had not decided just when he would return home. “If I remain over night,” he said, "It will be solely because of my intense in terest In the case.” When asked when the president eould be moved he said that matter had not b«en considered. "If it were necessary,” said he. "he could be moved today. He could be placed in an ambulance, taken to the train, placed on a lounge in a special ear and taken to Washington. That is so far as his condi tion is concerned. But there is no reason why be should not enjoy every comfort and take his time about it. It will not hurt him to remain a few weeks in Buf falo." EMMA GOLDMAN SPENT RESTLESS NIGHT. CHICAGO, Sept. IL—Emma Goldman, the "anarchist queen,” arrested here yes terday, spent a very uncomfortable night in the woman's annex to the Harrison street police station last night. She ate a hearty supper last night, but , shortly afterward her head began to ache, Showing the effect of the strain un der which she had been laboring all day. Being a trained nurse herself, she in sisted on treating herself. She wrote a prescription which she handed to Chief Matron Keegan with * request that it be filled.

The matron offered her cnarge a do*e of a headache cure which she herself used, but Miss Goldman re fused to take it and spent a sleepless night in consequence. She talked nearly the whole night to the matron, again and again repeating her wonder that so in significant a man as McKinley should re ceive such a widespread attention. “Her words were even more violent than in the interviews she gave out yes terday." said the matron today. She did not ask to see a lawyer, saying she was willing to take It for granted that her friends in the dty would see that she had proper legal assistance. At 9:30 a. m. Miss Goldman, looking pale but determined, appeared in Justice Prindiville’s edart. She was accompan ied by to one save Matron Keegan. She looked around the room as if expecting to se® some oute. but a* there were none of her acquaintances present, sk® faced the magistrate. Assistant City Prosecu- ATLANTA, GEORGIA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1901. tor Owens told the magistrate that Chief Bull, of Buffalo, had asked th® Chicago police to hold Miss Goldman a* long a* possible, pending the Investigation they were making. Mr. Owens asked for a postponement of the case until September 19. the date set for the hearing of tfre other anarchists under arrest. Miss Gold man had no attorney, the reliance she had placed on her friends apparently having been a mistake. Justice Prindl ville asked her if sh® was ready to pro ceed. She replied: "Yes, I am ready.” Then she asked if Lawyer Saltiel o* Lawyer Brown was tn the room. They were not. Justice Prindiville said that he would wait a little while to see If either appear ed. Thereupon Miss Goldman was taken back to the annex. At 10:30 Miss Goldman was stttl waiting for an attorney and th® hearing has been at a standstill for nearly an hour. A messenger ha* been sent for Attorney Saltiel, who was engaged in the Interests of the other alleged anarchists under ar rest. Meanwhile the prisoner sat quietly reading a newspaper and declined to talk about her case. CZOLGOSZ CONFESSES HE HAD ACCOMPLICES. NEW YORK. Sept 11.—A special to The Herald from Buffalo aaya: Leon Csolgosa has confessed to the po lice that his attempt upon the life of President McKinley was the result of a conspiracy In which many besides himself had a part. So far as can be learned, Czolgos* has refused to mention any name except that 6f Emma Goldman, but papers are in existence, which, if they can be discovered, will lay bar® the entire conspiracy and will result in wholesale ar rests, followed by prosecutions. Although Emma Goldman has been ar rested In Chicago, it Is probable that she will be brought to Buffalo for trial. The center of the conspiracy is here. Buffalo is Ailed literally to overflowing with agents of the secret service. A search is being made of every sewer that underlies the city, for it is known that in one of them is a package of papers containing the details of the conspiracy and the names of those concerned with Caolgosz in the plot, together with an outline of its ramifications. In his confession Czolgosz told of his at tempt to destroy the written evidences of the conspiracy. He has said that time did not permit him to burn the papers as he had desired. Before leaving his room in Nowak’s hotel he gathered together all of his papers, taking them from his pockets, from bls valise and from the drawers of his table. All were bound together in one package, which be concealed beneath his coat. Caolgosz says he made a circuitous and aimless trip about the city, and that at some point, which he cannot now describe, he came upon an open sewer. Into this sewer he cast his papers. Inch by inch the sewers of this city are being searched, and If such a thing is possible those pa pers wiU be recovered. On authoritative information it ean be M id that during the last ten weeks Emma Goldman has visited six anarchist organi zations. She has been in Buffalo three times since July 12, having left the city the last time four days before the at tempted assassination. Emma Goldman, Cxolgosz and Abraham Isaak and Mary Isaak were in consulta tion in Chicago on two occasions. Marie Isaak accompanied Emma Goldman to Buffalo the last time the arch-leader of the anarchists was here. Leon Caolgoea was accompanied to Buf falo and about the city by a mysterious Bohemian man and woman, who acted so suspiciously as to warrant the assumption that they knew of the Intention of Czoi gosx to assassinate the president. These two Bohemians are now being looked for all over the United States.

POLICE ANtf LAWYERS PLAN PROSECUTION ASSAULT WITH l| TENT TO KILL WILL BE TH i CHARGE AGAINST C DLGOSZ. MILBURN HOUSE, BUFFALO, Sept. 11.—District Attorney Penny, who has charge of the crimina branch of the at tempt on the presiden I life, was in con ference with Secretar of War Root to day with reference to m»e criminal feat ures of the ease. It w i stated that there was no definite cone rsion. Following Mr. Penny’s call, Seer ary Root went to the Milburn house, wifpre he was Joined by the other members of the cabinet, who were soon to go to t a Glenny house, where a formal discus on will be held. Whether there was rty connection be tween Mr. Penny's ei .» and the subse quent exchange of VMH » could not be as certained. As to Csolgosx, there s a general agree ment that his crime is for the New York and not the national wtkontiee to- deal with. A question has as to the na ture of the prosecution! as there are sev eral pnases in which jthe crime can be viewed, and the deslr > is to adopt the course which will givi the most serious phase and will Impose the severest pun ishment. ,If the ppq|ecutkm were for conspiracy with Emm. Goldman or any other person, thq pxofeeutlon would be confronted by the factithat conspiracy is only a misdemeanor under the laws of New York and its punishment is not com mensurate with the crime is this state. On the other hand, tesault with intent to kill is a felony, ana as such is much more serious than coni piracy. Moreover, a prosecution fpr the i ?tual assault with Intent to kill might aJ » incidentally In volve the question of a nspfraey In which other parties partlctim >d. For instance, the presence of Emm Goldman at the commission of the erh e ts not essential to make her a party te t. If there is other evidence that she aotu ffy brought about the crime. The Mollnenx ease imMew York city Is cited as one In which th|se who committed the ertme were not prelent when the vic tim was foully dealt Wish. The vital point in such cases ie to suMcient evi- dence to establish tlue. 'he get of an ab sent party directly and .brought about the crime. In ease Miss GoMman was prosecuted as *n absent participant In the assault and will be under laws of New York state and she wou*d have to be extradited from Illtaola At present, how ever. there has been no step toward ex tradition, and U does not appear to be under consideration. The Buffalo police have not yet con cluded the local investigation of the case. They are not only working out the de tails of every movement made by Csol gosc but one after another they are ex amining the local anarehiets. There are about twenty pronounced anarchists in the city and they are all to be brought in to be questioned. It Is doubted that the local circle were Informed of Cxol goss’s plan, but the police say it is possi ble that a number of them were aware of his presence and assisted him. The investigation Chief Bull Is making is as far reaching and as complete as pos sible. Cxolgoes ie still in the police lock up, but probably will be removed soon to the Erie county jail. The latter offers special advantages In connection with his arraignment, for it Is connected by -a tunnel wfth the city hall, where the courts are located and the privacy and secrecy tn handling him are assured. SOUTHERN"ENGINEERS" BOLT. On account of the fact that the National Association of Stationary Engineers will not exclude negroes from Its membership, the southern delegates have decided to withdraw. The association has been in session for a week at Rochester. N. Y., and an effort was made by the Georgia delegation to have the constitution so amended as to Insert the word “white” before the word "engineer." This was voted down. A. D. Howard, chief engineer at the Fulton county tower and president of Georgia association No. 1, announces that on his return to Atlanta he intends to give up th« charter and also his commis sion until negroas shall be excluded from the organisation. According to an account given by Mr. Howard, a negro delegate was seated in the convention, two of them danced at the grand ball and a negro woman occu pied a prominent place on the local en tertaining committee. Mr. Howard ab sented himself from the association and neither be nor his wife took any part in the festivities of the occasion. AU of the southern delegates are said to be indignant over the affair. CONDUCTOR UNDERWOOD CRUSHED TO DEATH. At 5 o’clock Thursday morning Southern switch engine No. 461. while running ten miles an hour, jumped from the track at the curve under the Whitehall street bridge just beyond McDaniel street.

Sept. 10.-4 p. m.-Captaln Luke Colleran, chief of detectives, has sworn out a warrant charging Emma Goldman with conspiracy to assassinate President McKinley. Miss Goldman, who was arrested today, is being held at the Central police station. CHICAGO. Sept 10—Emma Goldman, the high priestess of anarchy, whose speeches, it was claimed, turned, to fire the brain of Leon Csolgosx, the would-be assassin of the president, was arrested here shortly before noon today. Her manner was defiant as she was led Into the office of the chief of police, but she disclaimed all knowledge of Cxolgosa and his crime save that she admitted having met him here July 12. "Do you know that your words are what Caolgosx claims stirred him to shoot ■ I ■ F W V.* /' jt ■ ' . - EMMA GOLDMAN, Queen of Anarchists. the president?" she was asked. “I do not. I never advocated violence. I scarcely knew the man. I was leaving for Rochester via Buffalo when Csoigoes had a few words with me. He said he had heard me lecture at some, memorial haH In Cleveland last May and that he wanted to know me. He said he knew I was In Chicago and looked me up. I scarcely remember anything about him, save that his complexion was light.” “Then how do you know that this man Is th- 1 therrerio "Oh, I guessed that from what the news papers say.” "What did you think when you heard that an attempt to kill the president had been made?” the woman was asked. With a wave of her hands and another shrug of the shoulders she replied dis dainfully: “I thought that—oh, the fool!” Th* prisoner thus far had been growing mor» aid more excited, althqugh she made *a» evident effort to control herself. Tn this she finally succeeded and launched into a discussion of the teachings of anarchy. She declared that anarchy did not teach men to do the act which has made Cxoi gosx despised and hated the world over. **We work againfft the system and edu cation ts our watchword," she said. "It was early last July when I came to Chicago to visit the Isaaks family, * she continued in answer to an interrogation concerning her whereabouts recently. On the night of July 12 Mr. Isaaks was oat of the house. I went to the door and the man whom I learn through tho newspa pers was Czolgosz, stood there. He said he wanted to see me. I was about to catch the Nickel Plate train, as I and Mr. laaaks’ daughter were aoout to go to Ro chester. He went to the Rack Island de pot with us, but I was so busy taking leave of my friends that I scarcely notic ed him. It was not a time when one would want to make new friends. At the depot I had the few words with him of which I have told. That was all there was between us. I am an anarchist—a student of sociology—but nothing in any thing I ever said to Leon Cxolgosz know ingly would have led him to do the act which startled everybody Friday.” • “Not even in your lectures?” she was asked. “He says your words set his brain on fire.” "Am I accountable because some crack brained person placed a wrong construc tion on my words? "Leon Caolgosz. I am convinced, plan ned the deed unaided and entirely alone. There is no anarchist ring which would help them. There may be anarchists who would murder, but there are also persons in every walk of life who sometimes feel the impulse to kill. I do not know sure ly but I think Czolgoss was one of those down-trodden men who see all the misery which the rich inflict upon the poor, who tMnk of it, who brood over It, and then in despair resolve to strike a great blow, as they think, for the good of their fellow man. But that Is not anarchy. “Csolgoss,’* the Russian woman pro nounced the name with the greatest ease —"Cxolgosz may have been inspired by me, but If he was. he took the wrong way of showing it.” When Captain Schuettler and Detective Hertz discovered her at the home of one Norris at 308 Sheffield avenue, she denied her identity. “Hello. Miss Goldman,” said the cap tain, as he entered the parlor. “Are you glad to see me?” “I am not Miss Goldman. I’m a Swed ish woman and my name is Lena Lar son,” answered the anarchist, endeavor ing to imitate a Swedish dialect. "Ail right; I speak Swedish myself,” said the police officer, as he poured out a few questions in the Norse tongue. Miss Goldman did not answer him, af fecting to misunderstand. Detective Hertz meanwhile had discov ered a penholder with the name “Emma Goldman” engraved on it. ,r What does this mean?” asked Captain Schuettler, holding the inscribed holder. "It means that the game is up.” she said. She then admitted her identity ful ly and accompanied the officers. The woman was hurried to the police chief’s office. "Her appearance tallied with the de scription sent out by the Associated Press yesteroay. During the talk which followed Miss Goldman detailed as best she could rec ollect her movements since last July. She went from Chicago to Buffalo; ac companied by Miss Isaak, the daughter of the alleged anarchist editor under ar rest here. In Buffalo they stopped two days and then proceeded to Rochester, where they stopped at the home of Miss Goldman's sister, Mrs. Hochstein, of 213 Joseph street. Here they visited a little more than five The only incident of it was a short visit JIM PARKER TELLS COMPLETE STORY HOW ATLANTA NEGRO BAVED THE PRESIDENT FROM SURE DEATH. BUFFALO. Sept. U.—James Benjamin Parker is th® name of the negro who saved the hfe of the president of the United States. After the excitement sub sided a court of inquiry was held in which the actual facts of the assassina tion were brought out. The assassin held the pistol carefully concealed in a hand kerchief wrapped around his right hand. He made no effort to take the hand of the president, but held his wrist firmly against his right side and fired twn shots in quick succession. Immediately behind Csolgoss was Janies Benjamin Parker, a negro man. who was born in Atlanta, Qa., forty-four years ago. He was educated at Store's public school and at th® At lanta university, of which Professor Frances is principal. He says his mater nal great-grandmoChcr was a Cherokee ; Indian squaw; that his father was the son , of a Spaniard and & negro woman who lived on St. John's Island off the coast of South Carolina. His mother, a native of Savannah, Ga., lives is Atlanta at No. 284 Auburn . avenue. She had five chil dren, two sons and three daughters, of whom James Benjamain Parker is the only sutvlvor. Parker is over six feet six Inches in height and is of powerful build. I infer from what he says that he had a number of fights in Atlanta. He tells of whipping a man named Smith, from Wilkes-Barre, Pa. .who accused him es circulating malicious stories about the people of Georgia. He is remarkably Intelligent and says: “I was immediately behind the assassin at the reception ia the Temple of Music and had on my waiter's jacket, which I wear in the restaurant where I am em ployed. I tried to pass the man because he was so slow In moving forward, but he would stick his elbow In me, and finally 1 concluded to follow quietly along behind him. I am now glad 1 did so. I noticed that he did not give hi* hand to the presi dent, but When I heard the reports of th® pistol 1 saw the president's face turn pale. Giencing down 1 saw what the murderer was doing. I knocked him down in an in stant, as he raised Ms ptetoi as If to shoot again. By this time Detective Foster had discovered something was wrong and selat ed the man’s hand containing tho pistol. He wrenched the weapon and the stnoklag handkerchief out of bis hand, while 1 held the assassin down to the ground. The marines who were present for an Instant took Detective Foster for the murderer and ail jumped On him. In a few seconds 1 Foster saw the mistake, gave up the weapon and excitedly explained who he was. All thia time 1 Kid been in a strug gle with the murderer and held hhn ptaned to the floor. He is supple aad wiry, and if I had not been big and strong as 1 am he might have the advanw el mp. Pft* torfc Thy otir trwi hot otherwise harm me. My only regret was that I didh't choak him to death while 1 had him down.” I asked Parker why he didn't kin him. To which question he gave the character istic reply “You ought not to expect everything of a nigger.” It is a matter of congratulation that a Georgia darkey is really the hero of this occasion. His quickey® and strong arm certainly saved the president's life. He is not puffed up about it and speaks of in a very modest manner. Judging fYom letter* he has received from the north, ft looks a* if be will not be a waiter in a restaurant or hotel as long as he lives. There is a great demand for photographs and for buttons and souvenirs bearing his head. He has been a waiter In the Kim ball bouse, Atlanta, for a number of years. He came here last March and speaks in most cordial terms of Mr. James W. Lloyd, of Atlanta, and of a Mr. Con nelly, probably a ideal poMtiefan of that city. He seem* to be moderately welt ed t ucated and speaks most affectionately of his mother. His features show that he is telling the truth about his mixed descent. He is tall and slender, has a good profile and some what suggests a Spanish type, which 1 have seen both in this country and te Niagara Falls and another to New York on business. There Mias Goldman entered temporarily into the employ of a firm, the name of Which she would not divulge. Bwiinesa carried her to Pitts burg. She was in Cincinnati Labor Day and that night left for St. Louis. "I saw the police there Sunday all right,” the prisoner said, with a sarcastic little tangh. I “But they did not see me. I heard of the arrest of Mr. Isaaks and hi* family and other anarchists in Chicago and de termined to come here and see If I could not help them. Mr. Isaaks has not been in the country long and I was afraid he would not know what to do when In dif ficulties.” "What have you done to help him?*’ Captain Schuettler asked. “Well, I have been looking for men to go on their bonds, providing the courts would allow us to furnish them.” “Why did you deny your identity?” the captain pursued. * "Oh. as to that, I was not quite ready to show myself. My friends were still in jail and I wanted to do something for them. However, you’ve got me, but what ts there to it? They had me once in New York because I quoted Cardinal Manning, who said: ‘Necessity knows no law,’ but what good did that do them?** During the interview Walter Nowak, who says that he is the Buffalo man who identified Czolgos*. asked Miss Goldman if she boarded with a family of the name of Mendelwhlte In Cleveland. Miss Gold man answered in the negative. She de clared that she had stayed at the Hollen den under an assumed name so that the reporters would not bother her. |> H I 111 HI 111 I I 111 I I >♦♦♦♦■»! 111 111 >I M GEORGIA TO CELEBRATE | RECOVERYOFPRESIDENT | Governor Candler has consented to name a day by proclamation for all 4 Georgians to celebrate as a day of thanksgiving for the recovery of the president and his return to health after the tragic event at Buffalo last + Friday. . . ~. . y The governor received a telegram from a St. Louis paper last night ask- + ing him if he would name a day for such rejoicing.

BE SIGNING PAPERS 8! SATURDAY HIGHT SECY. WILSON GIVES CHEERFUL STATEMENT OF PRESIDENT’S CONDITION. NEW YORK, Sept. l.b-“The president will be signing official papers by Satur day night.” said Secretary Wilson of th® department of agriculture to a Tribune correspondent tonight at Buffalo. Secretary Wilson had just returned from the Milburn house, where he talked with the president's physicians, and later, at the Buffalo club, he conferred with Secretary Gage, Attorney General Knox and Postmaster General Smith. "Os course,” said Mr. Wfjson, "no one expects that the president will be able by that time, but he will be strong enough to write his name to official papers.
