AN OFFICIAL REPORT.
President xeKinley's Surgeons Tell
About His Case.
4 SEARCH MADE FOR The BULLET.
No Injury Done to the Presidents Stomach
BY the Giving Of Solid F0od-Dr.
Gayl0rd's Reports on the
AutOusv.


New York, Oct. 1S.-The New York
Medical Journal tomorrow will con-
tain the full official report of the
surgeons who attended the late
President William Mckinley in Buff
falo. The report contains upward of
$4,000 words and constitutes the Of
fetal record of the case. The report
describes in detail the events immedi.
ately following the shooting, which
are already familiar to the public.
Then follows description OF the
operation in all its technical minutae.
Speaking of the search for the bull
let during the operation, the report
says: "rhe operation on the stomach
now being finished, DIR. Mann intro
duced his arm SO as to palpitate care
fully all the deep structures behind
the stomach. No trace of the bullet,
or of the further track of the bullet
could be found. As the introduction
Of the hand in this way seemed to
have bad influence on the presi-
dents pulse, prolonged search for fur
Their injury done by the bullet or for
the bullet itself was desisted FROM"
The progress of the illness is given
day by day, and the bulletins as given
out by the attending physicians are
incorporated in the report.
The findings at the autopsy as well
as the developments Of the case dur
ing the last days exclude all posi-
bility Of absolute injury to the
stomach by premature giving of solid
food, as was alleged at the time when
unfavorable symptoms came on after
change to solid diet. On the eighth
day the condition of the president
was described as very serious, as he
did not respond to stimulation. At
five o'clock oxygen was given and con-
tinued for some hours. At $3.50
o'clock the president was restless;
at ten p. m. he lost consciousness
and continued to sink until he died
Mt 2:15 a. IN. on September IA.
DR.. Gaylord's report Of the autopsy
is lengthy. He believes that the re-
pair to the stomach wounds had been
effective and that the gangrene
around these wounds does not seem
to have been the result of any well
defined cause. He attributes the gan
grenous condition Of the tissues
solely to lowered vitality in the parts.
The extensive gangrene of the PAN
creas seems to have been an impOr-
tant factor in the case, though it had
never been shown how much of this
organ must be destroyed to cause
death. The wound in the kidney is
of no Importance, except as showing
the track of the bullet. The diseased
condition of the heart muscles shows
why the pulse was so frequent and
why it did not respond to stimulation
at the critical time.
The report of the bacteriologist is
largely what the doctors call mega
tive" i. e., it concerns rather the abb

According to the best information the circuit of the Amercan association will com prise Milwaukee. Chicago, Indianapo- lis and either Louisville or St Louis in the west and Philadelphia, Boston, Washington and New York or Provi- dence in the east, although at one time the packers of the organization proposed to place a team in Balti- more to compete with McGraw's club. The Milwaukee club will be financed by H. D. Quin, Chicago by Charles Havener, Indianapolis by w. 1T. Wat kins and Louisville by Kentucky capf- talists In New York it is presumed the Manhattan Field will be used. Philadelphia will be giverned by A. H. Koch of Milwaukee, who still con trols an option on grounds in the Quaker city, and in Washington the packers of the club will be Moves, Dwyer and Walker, who were identi- fled with the movement to organize the National association last year In Boston, Irwin and Hart will be in control.

PREPARING THE YACHTS.
In Boston, Bristol and Glasgow the
 Work Is Going On

In Boston, Bristol and Glasgow the
 Work Is Going On.
 Bristol, R. l., Jan 16.-Ia was said yesterday that Designer Herreshoff had modelled and ordered plans for Il centerboard sloOp in order to be in readiness to meet the proposed Han ley boat in case there should be Han ley boat. This idea, however, is laugh ed at by the best informed men here. In the first place the Hanley boat is no more than possibility and q. re mote possibility at that; and, in the second place, the defender now order ed practically is centerboard. It might be said that the only difference be- tween the new boat and the regulation type of centerboard is that the new boats board is fixed.
 A consignment of twenty-n nine plates of bronze arrived here soon after mid night Monday night from AnSonia, Conn. They are from 10 to 12 feet long, from IS inches to 3 feet wide and 7-4Oths of an inch thick. They will be used for plating the overhang of the sides of the boat. About 10 o'clock yesterday morning a special express car attached to a special loco motive arrived from Phoenixville, Pa, with consignment of steel bulb
 
 engles from IS to 35 feet in length, 2 inches thick on the face and i inch on the bulb.
 The work of setting up the frames of the boat has not been commenced, and 1t is understood that this will be delayed until there is no other work on hand, as the builders do not wish to divulge the lines of the boat until it is absolutely necessary. The work of preparing the plates is progressing rapidly.
 The crew of sailmakers has been in- creased by six men.
 Boston, Jan 16.-The Oregon pine log, 112 feet in length, which will be the main boom on the Lawson boat, was in the hands of the spar makers at Lawley's yards yesterday after noon, two of them split-sawing it and getting through all but eighteen feet of the. length. Designer Crownin- shield is in doubt as to the value of the steel gaff. A stick or Oregon pine 70 feet long is more to his liking. He has figured out that steel gaff, with metal enough in it to withstand the bucking strain really will be heavier thanva wooden gaff. .-.s ----.
 As the work on the boat progresses it becomes evident that the Boston boat will be lighter than the Heres hoff yacht. MT Lawley yesterday said that he had decided not to send the scrive board over to the Atlantic Works until the first bulbed steel angles arrive. Captain Half will visit Boston within the next ten days to settle matters connected with the crew. Designer Crowninshield has forwarded to him large number of applications he has received for places on the boat.
 Glasgow, Jan 16.-The keel of the Shamrock II, challenger for the America's Cup, was run while Denny's yard was closed on New Years day. Since then score of the side frames have been set up to port and starboard. Work on the challenger now Is done at night. Everything, even the waste and scraps of metal, is locked up in a shed and sealed before the yard is opened to admit the day workmen. Ninety-five tons of lead were melted for the keel. The finished block weighs within q few pounds of ninety tons.
