Buffalo, Sept. 7.-McKinley main
Gains good measure Of his strength,
and those who watch at the bedside
Z hold higher hope for his ultimate recov-
cry. The shock from the wounds in
fiicted upon him by Leon F.. Czolgosz
seems less than anticipated and that is,
regarded as highly favorable to him. 1t
" admitted that the crisis in his con-
dltion has not yet come and there is the
eravest danger until 1t has been safely
passed. Several bulletins came from
the chamber OF the wounded president
during the night and at an early hour
this morning, and they all Indicated
epirit OF hopefulness. The president
rested we'll and there are no alarming
conditions of temperature or pulse, and
the spirits OF the sufferer are strong and
CHEEKY. Mrs Mckinley bears up brave-
ly In her sorrow and the physicians in
attendance feel but little concern on her
account. When she saw the president
had rallied from the operation and was
suffering but little pain she was content
to leave his side during the night and
= rest herself. The surgeons who operat-
ed on the president are in constant at
tendance with corps of the most
skilled nurses obtainable, and the suf-
4erer is the recipient Of every care
+ which their skill and science can sug-
gest. They have not publicly discussed
the case, other than to issue brief bulle-
tins from time to time, but II is under
stood they believe the president will re-
cover, unless complications not now an
ticipated come to sap his strength and
vitality. With common impulse to
eave the sufferer the annoyance that
noise would inflict, the public avoids the
netghborhood where the Milburn resi-
dence is located. A detachment Of the
Fourteenth United States infantry sur
rounds the house, but the sentries

Czolgoszs the man who shot the presi-
dent. elept in comfort after his crime.
& He Was locked up at No. police sta
kion, and after he was interviewed by
the officers of the law a watch OF two
men was placed over him.
He went to bunk early and was soon
asleep. He seemed without regret and
was undisturbed by the prospect of pun
1shment for his crime.
This morning Czolgosz was photo
graphed and copies of the pictures are
being made as rapidly as possibly, and
distributed broadcast. The police ma
chinery of the entire country has been
set in motion to expose the plot against
the life of the president, IL plot there
was Czogosz insists he was alone and
& planned the crime but his statement is
not accepted as true. 1t is believed con-
federates accompanied him to Buffalo
1 and assisted in the execution Of the
plot. The police and secret agents are
working privately and insist that the
prisoner Is insane There is Q suspicion
that one of the prisoners confederates
accompanied him to the Temple of Mu-
Sic and by walking in front of him con-
cealed the hand which carried the re-
4 yolver. The attention of the police who
was with the presidential party was di-
Tected toward man who reached the
Z president just before Csolgozs did. His
actions were SO suspicious Mat one Sc
cret service man kept hand On his
arm until after he had shaken hands
with tie president. A description ef the
q man is now in the hands of the police of
. the entire country, and he will undoubt-
edly be run down Czolgosz is kept In
& absolute seclusion by the police and
none save the officers nave seen him.
There are reports of other arrests here
and at other cities, but the police de-
cline to confirm them. Hundreds If tel
egrame continue to pour in from all over
3 the world. All express ferveni hope
for the recovery OF the president. None
OF the kilograms is made public. The
relatives of the president have hurried
here and with them have come large
number OF men in public life.
