UU S—— Widow of Martyred President Sue- enmbs to Stroke of Apoplexy. PRESIDENT TO ATTEND FUNERAL Canton, O., May 27.—Sunday after- goon Mrs. William McKinley fell inte the sleep that knows no awakening. The traesition from life to death was so peaceful and gradual that it was with difficulty that the vigilant physi- cians and attendants noted when dis- solution came. There was no struggle, no pain, Mrs. McKinley never knew of the efforts made for days to prolong her life, nor of the solicitous hope against hope of her sister and other relatives and friends for her recovery. At the McKinley home when death came there were prescat Secretary Cortelyou, Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Barber Mrs. Sarah Duncan, Mrs. Luther Day, Justice and Mrs. William R. Day, Drs. Portmann and Rixey and the nurses. “Mrs. McKinley lasted hours longer than we expected,” sald the secretary. “Her vitality was wonderful,” said Dr. Portmann. It was by Secretary Cortelyou that the announcement of the demise was ‘en to the public. As this news was 1ed over the land, William McKin- Post and George D. Harter Post, \. R., were forming in line, and to strains of a band playing “The h Religosa,” went to the First list Episcopal church to listen annual Memorial Day address, vas given by Dr. Buxton, Mrs. ey's pastor. McKinley's last words were th. An attendant said: “Mrs. vy would say: ‘Why should 1 Please God, it is Thy will, why 7?" She would algo say: ‘He is nd life is dark to me now.’ kindred expressions would fall ner lips.” 5 not intended the funeral of Mrs. cKinley shall take on the form of a ceremony of state, yet the coming of the president and members of his cab. inet, the vice president, the governor of Ohio and many other people of note will make it such in a degree at least. It was determined to change the ar rangements for the funeral so as to allow the remains to be viewed by Canton friends of the deceased. To show their love for the departed, thou. sands of school children will be in- cluded in the throng that will go through the McKinley home and pass by the bier while they drop tears of sorrow for the loss of one whose love for children was so deep and tender. As there is a detachment of United States regular infantry on guard at the McKinley vault in West Lawn ceme- tery, where the remains of Mrs. Me: Kinley will rest until the national mau soleum is completed, there is ample guard for the protection of the presi dent while at the tomb. A portion of this detachment can easily be avail able for service at the McKinley home if such action is thought necessary to insure the safety of the noted guests and keep back the expected crowd of onlookers. The honorary pall-bearers announc- ed are: Judge Henry W. Harter, John C. Dueber, Joseph M. Biechele, Rob- ert A. Cassiday, George B. Frease, Austin Lynch, R. S. Shields and Judge C. Bow. Mrs. Ida Saxton McKinley has al- ways been a most amiable woman, de- spite the fact that she has for many years been an invalid. Her life with Mr. McKinley was uniformly happy. She first knew him as “the major,” and it was by that title that she al- ways lovingly addressed him. Presi- dent McKinley was a devoted hus- band, and never stopped at any sac- rifice that would add to the comfort and happiness of his wife. Mrs. McKinley was born at Canton, 0., on August 8, 1847. She was the granddaughter of John Saxton, a man of note and scholarship, who for 60 years was the editor of the Ohio Re- pository, a journa! which still makes its appearance every day in Canton. where Mr. Saxton founded it in March, 1815. Mrs. McKinley's father was James A. Saxton, son of John Saxton. James Saxton and his wife, Miss Kate De- walt, whose parents were also early Canton settlers, were among the prominent people of their section. He died in 1887 and his wife in 1873. She attended a private school at Delhi, N. Y., afterward one in Cleve land, and finally spent three years at a college at Media, Pa. Mr. McKinley was the superinten- dent of the Sunday school of. the First Methodist church, and Miss Saxton a teacher in the Bible class of the First Presbyterian church, and their Sunday duties often led them together. Two children were born to them. The first called Kate, after Mrs. Mc Kinley's mother, born Christmas Day, 1872, lived till June, 1876, just three years and a half. The second, named Ida, for her mother, lived only five months. Around this period Mrs. Me Kinley also suffered the loss of her mother, grandmother and grandfather, and her partings from these loved ones, with the death of her children broke down a constitution which had never been robust. For many months her own life hung by a slender thread and her nervous system seemed for 2 time to have suffered a complete wreck. After the joss of their children, Ma- Jor and Mrs. McKinley left their own house and went back for a time to the old homestead that had been Mrs, Mc. Kinley's home in her girlhood. There they lived until Major McKinley's de- parture tp take his seat in congress in 1877, after which, for the next 14 years, they spent most of their time in Wash- ington. Mrs. McKinley was present when the president was shot down by Leon CE NE WSOC Czolgosz, in Buffalo, N. Y., September €, 1901, and she remained at her distin. guished husband's side antil he breathed his last on the 14th of the same month. She bore up remarkably well, considering her weak condition, and always displayed the greatest de- votion to Mr. McKinley's memory. On each anniversary of his death she placed wreaths of flowers on his tomk in Westlawn cemetery, Canton, and for two or more years after his death she visited the vault daily and put a bou- quet of flowers upon the casket. Of Mr, McKinley's devotion to his wife there are few parallels. During their residence in Washington it kept him so completely at her side, when he was not engaged in public matters, that he had no time, if he had any taste for the demands of social life. PRESIDENT DEEPLY TOUCHED News of Mrs. McKinley's Death Causet Profound Sorrow In Washington. Washington, May 27.—While little hope was entertained here for her re covery, the news of the death of Mrs McKinley caused profound sorrow ir the national capital, where she so long made her home while her husband was 2 member of congress and later presi dent. President Rocsevelt announced that he would leave for Canton or Tuesday night to attend the funeral. Secretary Root and Secretary of Ag riculture Wilson, the only members of the cabinet who served under Presi dent McKinley, and Rev. Dr. Frank M. Bristol, of the Metropolitan Meth odist church, who was the McKinleys pastor, were deeply touched when they were told that Mrs. McKinley had ex pired. There were expressions of re gret from many officials whose duties brought them in contact with the White House and from all the at taches of the executive mansion, many of whom served there during the Me Kinley administration. All paid the highest tribute to the memory of the late president's widow. President Roosevelt will be accom panied on his trip to Canton by Secre taries Root, Garfield and Wilson, Ad miral Rixey, surgeon general of the navy, who attended Mrs. McKinley when she was in Washington, and Sec retary Loeb. MAKES FULL CONFESSION Becker Admits That He Alone Killed Staffeldt Girl. New York, May 28.—Henry Becker is In a state of collapse in the Queens county jail, having made a full con fession of the murder of Amelia Staf feldt at Elmhurst last Wednesday. The whole story was learned from Becker on the ground where the crime was committed. He showed the course that he took from the scene of the crime. He was then identified by Mrs. Emily Simonson as the fugitive who washed the blood from his hands at her pump Detective Graham visited Becker in his cell and he got him to confess again that he killed the girl after she threatened to call the police because he insisted on kissing her. Graham put several questions to him, and Becker said: “I hit her on the head with a stone I wanted to kiss her, and she would not let me. She threatened to call the police if I did not stop, and then I hit her with the stone. She began to holler, and then I took the knife and stabbed her.” RUN DOWN BY TRAIN Two Little Girls Struck While Sitting On the Track. Altoona, Pa., May 28. — Mary and Dora Snowberger, aged respectively 15 and 13 years, daughters of Hans Snowberger, of Covedale, Huntingdon county, while on their way to school, sat down to loiter on the railroad which runs from Altoona to Peters burg. A passing freight train prevent ed them from hearing the approach of a passenger train on the ack upon which they were sitting an ey were hit by the pilot of the locomotive and Greensbu hurled down the bank by the side of the track. The girls were brought to the Altoona hospital. Both were badly bruised and lacerated, but the elder will probably recover. The younger, who sustained a severe concussion of the brain along with internal injuries, is thought to be fatally injured. Suicide in Sanitarium. Lebanon, Pa., May 27.—Modie Co- hen, a prominent business man of this city, well known through the state, committed suicide at a sanitarium near Wernersville, where he was taken for treatment a week ago. POLICE WATCH J. P. MORGAN Fear He Wiil Purchase Works of Art Contrary to Italian Law. Rome, May 27.—The reports that J, Plerpont Morgan, of New York, is be ing watched by the police because of a fear that he may purchase works of art contrary to the laws of Italy, are indignantly denied. It is stated that Mr. Morgan is a welcome guest to Italy, and that he is:being treated with high consideration. King Victor Em manuel, it is said, expressed regret that he was not in Rome and therefore was unable to greet Mr. Morgan when he last was in this city. Charged With Murdering Son, New York, May 27.—Dominick Sizza, 23 years old, was found dead in bed by his mother, his head having been crushed by blows from an axe which was on the floor beside the bed. On the strength of Mrs. Sizza's story, her husband, Antonio Sizza, was arrested. The mother said that her son was the sole support of the family, her hus. band not having worked for some time. Father and son frequently quarreled, the father demanding money snd the son refusing it. Antonio, his wife sald, had often threatened to kill the boy. Transfers of Real Estate.
