BY ANARCHIST.
'Shot While Holding a Public Re
ception at the Exposition
assassin arrested on spt.
Having Supreme Confidence In the
people.the President Was Prac
tically Unguarded at the Time.
Buff 10, N, Y., Sept. 6. —Pres-
ident McKinley was shot and ser
iously wounded by a would-be as
sassin while holding a reception in
the Temple of Music at the Pan-
American exposition a few min
utes after 4 o’clock this atternoon.
One shot took effect in the right
breast, the other in the abdomen.
The first is not of a serious nature,
and the bullet has been extracted.
The latter pierced the abdominal
wall and has not been located.
It was a few moments after 4
this afternoon, while President
McKinley was holding a public re
ception iu the great Temple of
Music on the Pan-American ex
position grounds, that the coward
ly attack was made, with what
success time alone can tell.
Standing in the midst of crowds
numbering thousands, surrounded
by every evidence of good will,
pressed bv a motley throng of peo
ple, showered with expressions of
love and loyalty, besieged by mul
titudes, all eager to clasp his hands
—amid these surroundings, and
with the ever-recurring plaudits of
an army of sympathizers ringing
in his ears, the attack of the as
sassin came, and in an instant
pleasure gave way to pain, admira
tion to agony, gaiety turned to
far , and pandemonium followed.
It was just after the daily organ
recital in the Temple of Music that
the attempt was made. Planned
with all the diabolical ingenuity of
which anarchy or nihilism is cap
able, the would-be assassin carried
out the work a hitch and
should his designs fail and the
president survive only to divine
providence can be attributed that
beneficent result
The president, though well
guarded by United States secret
service detectives, was fully ex
posed to such an attack as occur
red. He stood at the edge of the
raised dais upon which stands the
pipe organ. Throngs of peo
pie crowded in at the various en
trances to gaze upon their execc
tive, perchance to clasp his hand,
and then fight their way out in the
good-natured mob. The president
was in a cheerful mood and was
enjoying to the full the hearty
evidences of good will which ev
erywhere met his gaze. Upon his
right stood President Milburn, of
the exposition, chatting with the
president and introducing to him
especially persons of note who ap
proached. Upon the president s
left stood Mr. Cortelyou.
ASSASSIN APPROACHES HIM.
It was shortly after 4p. m.,when
one of the throng which surround
-ed the presidential party, a med
ium-sized man of ordinary appear
ance and plainly dressed in black,
approached as if to greet the pres
ident. Both Secretary Cortelyou
and President Milburn noticed that
the man’s hand was swathed in a
bandage or handkerchief. Re
ports of bystanders differ as to
which hand. He worked his way
amid the stream of people up to
the edge of the dais until he was
•within two feet of the president.
President McKinley smiled,
bowed and extended his hand in
that spirit of geniality the Amer
ican people so well know, when
•suddenly the sharp crack of a re
volver rang loud and clear above
the hum of voices. There was an
instant of almost complete silence.
The president stood stock still, a
lo k of hesitancy, almost of be
wilderment on his face. Then he
retreated a step, while a pallor be-

gan to steal over his features. The
multitude, only partially aware
that something serious had hap
pened, paused in surprise, while
necks were craned and all eyes
turned as one to the rostrum.
Then came gcommotion. With
the leap of a tiger three men threw
themselves forward, as with one
impulse, and sprang toward the
would-he assassin. Two of them
|United States secret service
men, who were on the lookout and
whose duty it was to guard against
just such calamity as had here be
al’.en the president and the nation.
The third was a bystander, a ne
gro, who had only an instant pre
viously grasped the hand of the
president. As one man the three
hurled themselves upon the pres
ident’s assailant. In a twinkling
he was borne to the ground, his
weapon was wrested from his
grasp and strong arms pinioned
him down.
The multitude which thronged
the edifice began to come to a real
izing sense of the awfulness of the
scene of which they had been un
willing witnesses
A murmur rose, spread and
swelled to a hum of confusion,then
grew to a babel of sounds and la
ter to a pandemonium of noises.
The crowd that a moment be
fore had stood mute and motion
less, as in bewildered ignorance of
the enormity of the thing, now, as
with a single impulse, surged for
ward, while a hoarse cry welled up
from a thousand throats and a
thousand men charged forward to
lay hands upon the perpetrator of
the crime. •
Inside, on the slightly raised
dais, was enacted in those few mc|
inents a tradgedy so dramatic in
character, so thrilling in its inten
sity, that few who looked on will
ever be able to give a succinct ac
count of what really did happen.
President McKinley, after the
first shock of the assassin’s shot,
retreated a step, then, as the de
tectives leaped upon his assailant,
! he turned, walked steadily to a
chair and seated himself, at the
same time removing his hat and
bowing his head in his hands. In
an instant Secretary Cortelyou and
President Milburu were at his side.
His waistcoat was hurriedly open
ed, the president meanwhile ad
monishing those about him to re
main calm and telling them not to
tbe alarmed.
’ ‘‘But you are wounded,” cried
his secretary; “let me examine.”
“No, I think not,” answered the
president. “lam not badly hurt,
I assure you ”
Nevertheless his outer garments
were hastily loosened, arjd when a
trickling stream of crimson was
seen to,wind its way denvn his
breast, spreading its stain over the
white surface of the linen, their
worst fears were confirmed.
A force of exposition guards
were on the scene by this time, and
an effort was made to clear the
building.
The president’s assailant in the j
meantime had been hustled to the !
rear of the building by exposition I
guards, where he was held while 1
the building was cleared and later
h- was turned over to Supt. Bull, |
of the Buffalo police department, 1
who took the prisoner to No. 13
police station and afterwards to
police headquarters. As soon as
the crowd in the Temple of Music
had been dispersed sufficiently, the
president was removed in the au
tomobile ambulance and taken to
the exposition hospital where an
examination was made. The best
medical skill was summoned and
within a brief period a number of
Buffalo’s best known practitioners
were at the patient’s side.
The president retained the full
exercise of his faculties until plac
ed on .the operating table and sub
jected to an auaesthtic. Upon the
first examination it was ascertain
ed that one bullet had taken effect
in the right breast, just belaw the
nipple, causing a comparatively
harmless wound. The other took
effect in the abdomen, about four
inches below the left nipple, four
inches to the left of the navel and
about on a level with it.
Upon arrival at the -exposition
hospital, the second bullet was
probed for. The walls of the abdo
men were opened, but the ball was
not located. The incision was has
tily closed and after a hasty con
sultation it was decided to remove
the patient to the home of Pres
ident Milburn. This was done,the
automobile ambulance being used
for the purpose.
Arrived at the Milburn residence
the task of probing for the bullet
which had lodged in the abdomen
was begun by Dr. Roswell Parke.
ASSASSIN CONFESSES.
Buffalo, Sept. 5. —Leon Czolgosz,
the self-confessed assassin, has
signed a confession covering six
pages of foolscap, which states that
he is an anarchist and that he be
came an enthusiastic member of
I that body through tht influence of
1 Emma Goldman, whose writings
he had listened to. He denies
having any confederate and says
that he decided on the assassina
tion of the president three days
ago and bought the revolver with
which the act was committed in
Buffalo. He has seven brothers
and sisters in Cleveland and the
Cleveland dictionary has the
names of about that number living
on Hosmejr street and Ackland
avenue, which adjoin. Some of
them are butchers and others in
different trades. Czolgosz does
not appear in the least degree un
easy or penitent for his action. He
says he was induced by his atten
tion to Emma Goldman's lectures
and writing to decide that the pres
ent form of government in this
country was all wrong and he
thought the best way to end it was
by killing the president. He shows
no signs of Insanity, but is very
reticent about much of his career.
While acknowledging himself an
anarchist he does not state to what
branch of the organization he be*
lon^s.
ANNEXATION MAY BE RESULT
Cuban* Foittring a Sentiment to
Overcome Independence Idea,
Washington, Sept. 3. —During
his visit to Washington General
Wood declined to discuss the pos
sibility of the annexation of Cuba
to the United States, but officials
of the administration who have
had opportunity to examine care
fully the Cuban constitution are
satisfied that no stable government
in the island can be established ud
der it. Too much power is placed
in the hands of the president of the
island. The power is given to him
to appoint all officers except those
of congress and provincial gov
ernors. He can dismiss municipal
officers and appoint their succes
sors, suspend the constitution ar.d
assume a dictatorship. The con
stitution, it is said, has the defects
of those of most Central and South
American Republics. It creates an
opportunity for an ambitious lead
er to assume absolute control of
the government, and that will en*
courage revolution.
Whiie the United States govern
ment has kept its hands off and al
lowed the constitutional conven
tion to make its ®wn plans for civil
government, excepting the rela
tions to exist between Cuba and
the United States, a well-defined
impression exists in administra
tion circles, especially in the war
department, that with the consti
tution adopted there will be no
stable government. The conserva
tive element in Cuba is moving in
this matter, and asking for annexa
tion. That element failed to con
trol the constitutional convention
in the election of debates last
fall, and its dissatisfaction with
the result is natural. The revolu
tionary element has been in con
trol of the new constitution is of
its making.
The Cuban planters see no hope
for prosperity without closer rela
tions with the United States. They
realize that the government to fol
low that of General Wood, elected
by their own people, will not be as
economical. They have come to
the conclusion that there is no oth
er way to obtain close commercial
relations than by annexation.
Their arguments are convincing to
Americans who have been in Cuba,
and especially to those who have
had the administration of affairs in
Cuba.
General Wood, while refraining
from public discussion of that
question, has so presented the sit
uation in his report as to convince
war department officials that there
will be no settlement of the Cuban
question until Cuba has been an
nexed to the United States, either
as a territory or as Porto Rico is
annexed.
For Revision of Tariff-
Philadelphia, Sept. 3. —The ex
ecutive committee of the National
Association of Manufacturers will
meet here tomorrow to consider the
advisability of calling a conven
tion of the association for the pur
pose of memorializing congress to
revise the present tariff laws and
to encourage reciprocity treaties
with other countries.
The committee at the recent an
nual convention of the association
at Detroit was instructed to learn
the sentiment of the manufactur
ers of the country on these sub
jects. This has been done and it
is believed that at tomorrow’s
meeting the reports to be made by
members will so strongly favor re
ciprocity treaties and a radical re
vision of the tariff that the com
mittee will issue a call for such a
convention.
