The members of the cabinet, Senator Kanna, General Groiveuor (who only arrived from Ohio this morning) and all the other distinguished friends who have waited for the issue, hurried to the Formerly Lived in Detroit, Leon Was Born. Detroit, Sept. 10.—From 1874 to 187a the family of Leon Czolgosz, the assail ant of President McKinley, lived in De- triot, and former residents assert that Leon was born here in the summer of 1874. A search of old city directories resulted in locating the Czolgosz fami ly at 141 Benton street in 1874. Inquiry in this neighborhood devel oped several people who had known the family. J. J. Lorkowski, a prominent Polish saloonkeeper, lived across the street from the Czolgosz family and knew the father welL Ke is sure that the boy Leon was born in the Benton street house in 1874. Lorkowski says that the Czolgosz fam ily moved to Posen, Mich., near Alpena, in 1S75, going later to Alpena. If this information is correct Leon Czolgosz is 27 years of age, instead of 28, as he as serts. When this was pointed out to Lorkowski, who is a very intelligent man, he said that many Polish boys did not know their age and he presumed Czolgosz was not sure of his. If Leon was born in Alpena, as has been thought, he is not over 26 years of age, as the family did not move there until 1876. Have you considered the prospects !

Milburn House, Buffalo, Sept. 10.— Again what may be termed a crisis night, the fourth since the dastardly at. tempt on the life of President McKin- ley, has passed and without a single symptom unfavorable to the president’s recovery. In fact, the tone of the fir?! bulletin this morning was most cheer, fully worded, rejoicing that the aistin. guished patient had been mere comfort able during the night than any previous period since he was wounded. Both pulse and temperature are a trifle higher man yesterday morning, but so little as to cause no worry and, in fact, rather co give encouragement by the slight ness of the change of condition. The weather conditions of the day were anything but cheerful during the early hours, and the auil skies and drizzling rain gave an outward appear ance of gloom and depression. The forecast was for showers and an east wind, but the realization was worse thau the prophecy. For the first time since the shooting the sun was hidden by heavy clouds. The tracing air that has lent such com fort to the patient thus far, gave way tc the chill aud muggy wind from the east. For a time the rain peited the military guards aud trickled down their guns. But these more inclement conditions passed away by 8 o’clock: the rain stopped, but the dark skies and soggy grounds remained. Result of Conference. The results of the morning conference were known about 9 o'clock, as the doc tors came from the house. The faces of the doctors clearly showed their satis faction with affairs. As Dr. Roswell Park came to his carriage he paused long enough to give a general survey of the conditions prevailing. •‘The condition of the president this morning is entirely satisfactory,” said he. “The president spent the most of his removal? “No, it is too early for that, but when he is moved he probably will go tc Washington.” Dr. Park referred to the fact that the doctors’ reports were most conservative and gave results such ns the medical fraternity would be expected to pass upon in the case of any citizen. “It would be weli to have it stated,” he added, “that the president is not be ing deprived of benefits of private citi zenship. He is being treated exactly as any other citizen would be aud is get ting the benefit of it. We view the case just as that of any other man who might be similarly afflicted.” “Out of the Woods.” comfortable night he has had since the shooting. He slept well and when he was awakened he was cheery aud eveu chatty. He is not receiving anj' nour ishment thus far excent bv enema. Tr.is Dr. Hermann Mynter was the next of the consulting physicians to come from jthe house. He was followed by Dr. Eu gene Wasdin, and they walked down like street together. To the queries o 1 the newspaper men Dr. Mynter said: “The president is doing splendidly and he is out of the woods, if I may ex press it that way. ” “Yes, ” chimed in Dr. Wasdin, “and he has plenty of daylight behind him. ” Dr. Mynter said further: “I have never been really optimistic, because I no not like to prejudice seri ous cases, but now I can say to you tfiat everything in the president’s condition warrants the statement that he is on the road to quick recovery.” Dr. Wasdin said: “I have believed throughout that the president had a fair chance of recovery. Now I desire to say that the chances against that recovery are very slight. His temperature is splendid and his pulse is normal.” Dr. McBurney was in high spirits as he walked away from the residence shorrly after the other physicians had gone. His face was wreathed in smiles. “Is the president out of danger?” he was asked by an Associated Press re porter. frantically Out of Danger. ' ! “We believe he is practically out of danger,” he replied, measuring his words. Then he paused. “Of course,” he added, “there are stiL! possibilities in the case and we will all feel bettex whan a week has gone by. But his im provement is so marked, his symptoms are so good that we feel safe in assuring :tke public that he will recover. Blood iDoisoning might still develop. We could !not give a guarantee, but the chances !are remote. As for peritonitis, I con lars and join in the general jubilation. For hours carriages and automobiles streamed up Delaware avenue. Down town the people gathered in crowds at the bulletin boards and gave vent to their feelings in rejoicing, aud at the exposition the thousands of visitors who read the bulletins posted everywhere burst into cheers.

Choate, has re ceived from the lord of the admiralty, the Earl of Selborne, the following tele gram on behalf of the British navy and admiralty: “Allow me to give expres sion to the'universal feeling of horror at the attempt on the life of the president and the earnest prayer of all the sub jects of his majesty that the president may be spared to his family and the service of the country. The respectful sympathy of all of us is with Mr. Mc Kinley at this time of such grave anx iety and suspense. ” Reunion Postponed. Akron, O., Sept. 10.—Arrangements for a reunion of the Eighth Ohio regi ment of the Spanish-American war, popularly known as the “President’s Own,” have been put aside until the complete recovery of President McKin ley.

Orlando, Fla., Sept. 10.—A case comes from the hamlet of Victoria in which there is the suggestion of a very rare cause. Dr. Davis, the local physician at Vic toria, was hastily summoned by the email daughter of Mr. J. M. Goolsby, whose residence was distant from his some 200 yards. He was requested to come os soon as he could, as her broth er, Willie Goolsby, was shot. When he arrived the doctor found a lad of 16 lying on the ground lace down ward, and a ballet hole in the back of the head, ranging in line with the ears of the boy, but far back in the skull, the bullet having entered and passed out, tearing away a portion of the skull Behind the boy about 10 feet distant was a large Remington pistol, 44-cali ber, with one ctiamber discharged. The boy was dead. Examination showed that death was practically instantane ous. The account of the occasion, as given by Mrs. Goolsby, is that she had en deavored to give the boy some parental correction, aud he broke away, and pro curing the pistol, rau into the yard and fired into his head, with suicidal intent; that as he fired he throw the pistol back ward toward the house and fell forward. She and her little daughter were the only ones at home, besides tha boy. The coroner will hold an inquest, as the affair is rather a mysterious one.
