t'l!E PRESIDENTS DEATH Nation's Beloved Chief Expired at 2.15 A. M. Saturday "iT IS GOD'S WAY," HE SAID Dying Man's Face Lighted Up With Smile As His Wife Clasped Hie Hand —She Bere the Ordeal Brave ly, Despite Physical Weakness. Milburn House, Buffalo. Sept. 14. — President McKinley died at 2.15 a. m. He had lioen unconscious since 7.50 p. m. His last conscious hour on earth was spent with the wife to whom he devoted a life time of care. He died unattended by a minister of the gospel, but his last words were Hit humble submission to the will of the God in whom he believed. He was reconciled to the cruel fate to which an assassin's bullet had condemned him, and faced death in the same spirit of calmness and poise which has mtiked his long and honorable career. His last conscious words, reduced to writing by Dr. Mann, who stood at his be.iside when they were uttered, were aa follows: "Goodbye. All goodbye. It is God's way. His will he done, not ours." Before 6 o'clock last evening it was clear to those at the President's bed side that he was dying, and prepara tions were made for the last sad of fice:-; of farewell from those who were nearest and dearest to him. Oxygen G£.::!'.«TARY HOOT AT THK MILBURN HOUSE. had been administered steadily, but wit'i little effect in keeping back the app'-rich of death. The President car >ut of one period of unconsc ious nes :ily to relapse into another. But in ; pet " i when bis mind was parti ly clear, occurred a series of evenss of profoundly touching char acter Down stairs, with strained and tear-stained faces, members of the cabinet were grouped in anxious wait ing. They knew that the end was near, and that the time had come when they must see him for the last time on earth. This was about 6 o'clock. One by one they ascended the :tairway—Secretary Root, Secre tary Hitchcock and Attorney General j Knox. Secretary Wilson also was ] there, but he held back, not wishing to \ see the President in his last agony. There was only a momentary stay of the cabinet officers at the threslihold of tiie death chamber. Then they withdrew, the tears streaming down their faces and the words of intense grief choking in their throats. After they left the sick room the physicians rallied the President to consciousness, and he asked almost ! immediately that his wife be brought to him. The doctors fell back into j the shadows of the room as Mrs. Mc- j Kinley came through the doorway. The strong face of the dying man lighted up with a faint smile as their hands were clasped. She sat beside him and lie held his hand. Despite her phy sical weakness she bore up bravely : under the ordeal. Then his mind began to wander, and soon afterward he completely lost j consciousness. His life was prolonged I for hours by the administration of oxygen, and the President finally ex- ' pressed a desire to be allowed to die. About 8.30 the administration of oxy- I gen ceased, and the pulse grew fainter una fainter. He was sinking gradually | like a child into the eternal slumber. By le o'clock the pulse could no longer | ba felt in his extremities, and they j grew cold. Below stairs the grief- 1 stricken gathering waited sadly for \ the end. Sec retary Root and Secretary Wil son came from the house about mid night. and paced up and down the p-ide'.valk. All that Secretary Root said was:"The night has not come yet." Despite the fact that vitality con tinned to ebb as midnight approached no efforts were spared to keep the spark of life glowing. Dr. Janeway. j of New York city, arrived at the Buf- ' falo depot at 11.40 o'clock. George j Urban was waiting for him, and they I drove at a breakneck pace to the | Milburn house. He was shown to the j President's room at once, and began \ an examination of the almost inani- | mate form. Secretary of the Navy Long arrived j at the Milburn house at 12.0(j o'clock. This was his first visit to the city, and he had the extreme satisfaction of seeing the President alive, even ; though he was not conscious of his visitor's presence. Secretary Long was visibly affected. Vice President Roosevelt had been J notified early in the day of the critical ! state of aiiairs. There was no longer I a doubt that in the approaching death ! of the President a complete change ' in the executive administration of the | government would ensue. When Mr. 1 Roosevelt would take the oath of office { "/.is wnoll> a matter of conjecture. President Arthur took uie oath at I t a. m.after the death «t Garfield and in that case Justice Brady, of New York, administered the oath. There is no requirement that the oath shall be ! administered by a justice of the United States supreme court, although that procedure is adopted when circum stances permit. Without unseemly haste the mem bers of the cabinet will tender their resignation and the new president will then be free te initiate his own policy and choose his own cabinet. Shortly after midnight the Presi dent's breathing was barely percepti ble. His pulse had practically ceased and the extremities were cold. It war. recognized that nothing remained but the last struggle, and some of the friends of the family who had remained through the day, began to leave the house, not caring to be present at the final scene. ROOSEVELT'S QUIET DAY President Only Went Out to Attend the Funeral. Buffalo. Sept. 16.—President Roose velt passed a very quiet Sunday at the Wilcox house, only going out attend the funeral of the last President. His secretary, Mr. Loeh and his assistants were, however, kept busy opening tele grams and mail and classifying them. Piled up on the oak table in the sitting room of the house were at least 600 telegrams and letters, all of them ex pressing regret at the sad occurrence to the late President and assurances of confidence and support to the new President. The only announcement the Presi dent had to make was that Mr. Cor telyou, the secretary of President Mc- Kiniey, would for the present act in that capacity for him because of his knowledge of the condition of affairs. Mr. Cortelyou confirmed this statement. In the early part of the evening the cabinet met at supper. About the board, in addition to the President, were Secretaries Long. Wilson aud Hitehkock, Postmaster General Smith and John G. Milburn. Here, too, polit ical discussion was avoided entirely, but after supper, the President had a long discussion with the cabinet offi cers on the present situation of gov ernmental affairs. CZOLGOSZ DOES NOT KNOW Assassin In Jail Still Unaware of the President's Fate. Ruffalo, Sept. 16—The assassin Czol gosz does not yet know that President McKinley is dead, and will probably not know it until he is arraigned for murder. He will be indicted by the grand jury probably today, and the case will be then immediately removed to the supreme court. l'ii arrange ment will take plan in lite court "id will be very soon, the exact time de pending oil the time of the returning of the indictment. No further effort was made by the officers yesterday to talk with Czolgosz, nor was the theory or poisoned bullets taken up by the police. They feel confident that when the bullets remaining in the revolver are chemically examined, as they un doubtedly will be, no poison will be found on them. As to Emma Goldman, the situation stands unchanged, the police holding that there is not suffi cient evidence on which to ask for her extradition. DETROIT'S STRONG WORDS Congress Dare Not Adjourn Without Passing Anti-Anarchistic Laws. Detroit, Mich., Sept. 16. —Nearly 2,- 000 people gathered yesterday in a public mass meeting in memoriam or former President McKinley. General R. A. Alger spoke. General H. M.

New York, Sept. 16. —Naturally, the theme of all the sermons preached in New York and its suburbs yesterday was the lamentable death of the Presi dent. With practical unanimity those in charge of the services had the con gregations sing "Nearer. My God. to Thee," as a still further tribute to Mr. McKinley. Cleveland Eulogized Dead President.

While the entire nation is bowed in sorrow over the death of the beloved McKinley, an outraged people are cry ing out in vehement denunciation of those at whose doors can properly be placed the responsibility for the das tardly attack upon the President. Czolgosz, the assassin, has con lessi d that he was prompted to the terrible deed through ihe teachings of Emma Goldman, the "Queen of An archy." Emma Goldman, through tho me dium of yellow journalism, has been enabled to spread her damnable doc trines, notwithstanding the interfer ence of the police authorities, and since she has been taken into custody and the secret service agents of the United States have been at work the ramifications of the Anarchistic move ment have been disclosed with start ling results. CZdLGOStf'S SHOT. It was not until Czolgosz's shots thrilled and shocked the entire Chris tian world that the people awakened to the frightful work of yellow journal ism. Right here, in prosperous, patriotic Pennsylvania, was given an exhibition of the extent to which a yellow journal would goto further personal or po litical ends. Since the assassination of President McKinley the eyes of the nation have been directed to the work of Wana maker s Philadelphia North American in championing the cause cf Emma Goldman, when the authorities of the Quaker City attempted to prevent her ironi addressing meetings in the city. While the Hearst yellow newspapers in New York, Chicago and San Fran cisco were hounding the President, ■with editorials, cartoons and carica tures, all inciting hostility to ail minii ti ation and inflaming the minds of the unemployed against the govern ment, the work of The North Ameri can. i:i the light of recent events, was quite as stand Uous and outrageous. GOLDMAN AND HER TCACIIIN' It was in April last when Emiaa Goldman arrived in Philadelphia to carry out her purpose to make public addresses. The police notified her that shi would not be allowed to preach her Anarchistic doctrines, wkcr upon The North American, with an evident purpose to make capital among the unemployed, for its politi cal interests, ileclari d that it was an outrage to interfere with the "right of free speech." and at once began a serins of attacks upon the city autho ties. THE NORTH AMERICAN S RECORD Commenting upon the action of the yellow journals, the Philadelphia In quirer, oi recent date, said: "We presume that the New York Journal and the Philadelphia organ of We.namakcrism, familiarly known as the Yellow Pest, would resent the implication that they have bei n in any way responsible for the crime. And yet they, by their attacks upon public men without cause, have been firing the brains of Anarchists and leading cra< U brained persons to be lieve thra the removal of public offi cial is something to be commended: "The man who shot the President confesses that he has been a pupil of Emma Goldman, the infamous beast, who was, not. many mouths ago, sup pressed by the police force of Philadel phia. "She came to this city to spread her doctrines of assassination and disas ter. The mayor and the director of public safety served notice that she would not be allowed to speak. Im mediately yellow journalism took up her i atis" "Arid what did the newspaper that is run by Wanamaker money say? "Here are some quotations: " 'Tlie silencing of Emma Goldman is an outrage.' '"Tl.e example of lawlessness being given by the police authorities is at i ace dangerous and disgracefu'. Should force be met with force the moral re : ponsibility would rest upon the stu pid despots of the City Hall. * • « The law should be brought to bear upon the lawless mayor and director of public safety.' "'Now she (Emma Goldman) be comes the representative of the Amer ican light to free speech.' " 'lt is to be wished that, somebody might show sufficient public spirit to contest in tho courts the power of the police department to say who shall or shall not have the right to address pub lie meetings. " 'There is no law in the United States against preaching the gospel of Anarchy.' "No law against preaching the gos pel of Anarchy? I "So say tlie yellow journals— the New York Journal and the direct rep resentative of WanamaUerism in this I city. "But as long as yellow journalism Is permitted to denounce public offi i cials as thieves without reason for doing so," adds The Inquirer, "just so long will a dangerous class be bred, ready when the Drain is excited to the pitch of action, to murder as the present product of Goldman and yel low journalism has done. "Crimes are committed daily by ; newspapers under the appeal to the public and to the lawmakers for the j 'freedom of the press.' "Freedom does not mean license. "It does not mean the advocacy of doctrines that lead men to assassi nate. "Anarchy and yellow journalism go j hand in hand." Representative Newspapers De nounce Yellow Journalism. | THEY ENCOURAGED ANARCHY ! Hearst and Wanamaker Yellow Sheets Come In For Their Full Share of Condemnation In the Comment Upon ' -> the Assassination of the President of the United States. Throughout the United States there- S spectable conservative newspapers are roundly scoring yellow Journalism and coupled with the Hearst New York Journal, the Wanamaker North Amer ican, with its Emma Goldman protec tion record, comes in for a full share oi denunciation. Following are a few editorial utter ances on this subject: • MORE THAN CONDEMNATION. We are the only civilized people anwiig whom the yellow journal exists. It could not live amid a European peo ple. Its gross indecency would shock the public sense, so that room would not be found for it. The American people would show a distinct advance by withholding from these sheets pat ronage and recognition.—lndianapolis News. DOES NOT IMPLY LICENSE. It will be of no service to punish i Czolgosz while Emma Goldman goes j about the country instigating fresh i assassinations and groups of anarchists I openly meet to celebrate the crime | against humanity. Such meetings, such teachings, are themselves a crime, and i should be so recognized and treated j by stringent penalties. Freedom of I speech does not imply license to un | dermine the structure of society, and ! civilization must protect itself. —Brad- ; ford (Pa.) Argus. j YELLOW JOURNALISM AND AN ARCHY. Little less deep than the indignation against the assassin Czolgosz in the de nunciation of the newspapers of the • yellow JonvK<\l class, which, with their j tirades against the heads of govern ments and specious reasonings, hf.ve ! deluded such men as the attacker of the President to deeds cf violence. It is ihe cry of "murderer" which these scurrilous sheets have printed on ac coi i t of the wars with Spain and In | the Philippines against the President i that have inflamed the poor under | standing of men who lack the power | of discernment to distinguish between | reason and madness and have sent ! these vultures upon law and order to j take from the head 'of government their | chief officer. —Towanda (Pa.) Report | er Journal. PREACH MURDER AND ASSASSI NATION. Would the bloodthirsty men and women who, while living in a civilized j community, preach murder and assass -1 ination as a remedy for political evils, 1 put their ideas into practice and kill , one another off. or would their novel imprisonment awaken them to the er ror of their ways and resolve them into peaceable and useful citizens? Evi -1 dently there is to be no lack of sugges , tions for dealing with the followers of ! Herr Most und Emma Goldman, and it will be surprising hubed if our law ; makers do not m nage to evolve some i thing really practice! out of the mul- I titude of ideas. —Piltstcn Gazette. PUT HER IN A CAGE. Emma Goldman, ar.atvhy's angel I with the flaming sword, who, it is al ! leged. inspired President McKinley's assassin to commit hi? foul deed, is in the tolls of the police. It is sug ! gested that Miss Goldman be trans ! ferred to Philadelphia and placed on i exhibition In a cage in front of the j Philadelphia sen: itional newspaper | which so eloquently championed her ' rights when she was prevented from | holding anarchistic meetings several months ago.—Bucks County Gazette. CLAIMS TO BE RESPECTABLE. A Philadelphia newspaper which : claims to be respectable speaks of Emma Goldman as "the representative i of the American right to free speech,'" and "there is no law in the United | States against preaching the gospel of , anarchy." There is the law of self preservation which every government may enforce.—The Indianapolis Jour nal. : THE YELLOWS ARE CRAWLING. The Philadelphia Inquirer has cer tainly performed a gieat service by its j prompt, incisive and crushing indict ment of the New York Journal and the Wanamaker yellow rest. We .certainly note a remarkable "crawling" on the part of the journals in question and a hurried desire to get in out cf the wet. But, as The Inquirer so graphi callj pointed out. their fell work has been done, 'heir pea.-on has been cast broadcast and the Nation s head has I had to bear the blunt of this gospel of hate and slander. Now that they I have been properly gibbetted we hope the public will mark Its disapproval of such publications. We do not forget bow the North American libeled the coal regions by its outrageous descrip tions and absurd pictures during the miners' strike last fall. — Wllkesbarre Times. NOW SORRY THAT THEY SPOKE. Yellow journalism and anarchy are not far apart. The awful crime com mitted In Buffalo last Friday was com mitted by a disciple of Emma Goldm&u. Not long ago, it will be recalled, she attempted to speak in Philadelphia, but the mayor and the director of public safety prevented her from so doing. Immediately yellow journalism rushed to her rescue, and Wanamaker's North American gave utterance to the follow ing. among other printed remarks in criticism of the officials for her sup pression: "The silencing of Emma Goldman is an outrage." "The example of lawlessness being given by the police authorities is at once dangerous and disgraceful. Should force be met with force the moral responsibility would rest upon the stupid despots of the City Hall." The above is disgraceful reading; it should cause Americans to blush for hhame. Emma Goldman, in Cleveland, spoke the words which fired the brain of a young man to attempt the life of our President. Had the officials of Cleveland acted with equal decision and prudence with those of Philadel phia, the crime would not have been enacted. One result of the attempted assassination of the President will be to make yellow journalism more ab horrent than ever, and our lawmakers should not lose sight of this dangerous element in society when dealing with anarchy and its attendant evils. —Ve- nango Citizen-Press. CRIMINAL AS ANARCHISTS. Emma Goldman and her nefarious principles are responsible for Csol gosz's determination to kill President McKinley. They inflamed his mind and they formed his devP'ah ambition. Emma Goldman was hailed as the apostle of free speech by the Phila delphia North American. That a news paper which professes to stand for reform and right living and honest purposes should boldly defend one of the most dangerous anarchists In the country and should denounce those who prevented her from uttering her treasonable, un-American doctrines would be almost incomprehensible were it not already known that it has never had a mission save the vilification of the men it disliked for personal or political reasons and that its whole policy was dictated by the erratic in clinations cf a few disappointed and disgruntled office-seekers.— Clue Ridge Zephyr, Waynesboro, Pa. YELLOW PERIL AND A CURE. The Journal has had no hesitation in pointing out where the real respon sibility rests for the crime the President. The yellow and irresponsi ble press of the country, by their de grading and malicious attacks on pub lic officers and men in high places, have fostered discontent, have pro moted anarchy, and made possible Just such crimes.—Chicago Journal. THE YELLOW PRESS. Another instance is called to mind in Philadelphia where another yellow paper was champion of Emma Goldmau when the murderous she-wolt had ar ranged to deliver a harangue in that city. The police authorities interfered, and the paper referred to said: "The example of lawlessness being given by the police authorities is at once dan gerous and disgraceful. Should force be met by force, the moral responsi bility would rest upon the stupid des pots of the City Hall. The law should be brought to bear upon the lawless mayor and director of public safety." The yellow newspaper made the right of Emma Goldman to stand up before a crowd and incite to assassination greater than the right of the authori ties. constituted by the people, to pre serve public peace, order and human life. On the same occasion Emma Goldman complained that the constitu tion of the United States had heen violated because she could not lash some Czolgosz in the crowd into shoot ing the President as he stood extend ing his hand to his fellow citizens. Such is the interpretation of the na tional constitution by the fiend who is worse than Borgia, and the yellow papers that flock to her support.-- St. Louis Globe. EMMA GOLDMAN WHO PREACHED MURDER. Emma Goldman, the leading anar chist of the country if not of the world, stands charged with conspiracy to murder the Presidont of the United States, and it is the duty of officers of the law t.o discover every scrap of evidence that will tend to prove this an
