PARTLY coNcocrED AT BUFFALO q
Further Information Regarding an An.
archist Conspiracy.


New York, Sept. 1O.-A special to
The Herald from Buffalo says:
From two sources, each of which is
unimpeachable, it is learned that the
police of the Unit ed States are nearly
ready to draw dragnet and capture
a host of anarchists, all of whom are
believed to be concerned in the plot
to murder President Mckinley and
other representatives of the govern.
ment.
Emma Goldman is believed to be a
leader in the conspiracy She was
here in Buffalo the day before Presi-
dent Mckinley arrived. The police of
this city have questioned relative Of
hers, from whom much information Of
value was obtained. The Goldman
womans arrest, it is asserted, will oc-
cur in a few hours, if, indeed, it has
not already been effected. Evidence
Is not lacking that the plot was at
least partly .concocted in Buffalo.

sENAToR HANNA GUARDED.
Secret Service Agent Ireland Is With
Him Constantly.

Buffalo, Sept. 12.--The secret serv-
ice guards over prominent men are
being constantly Strengthened. Sen
ator Hanna is the latest to be placed
under surveillance, Secret Service
Agent Ireland being with him CON
htantly. One reason for this precau-
tion is that Senator Hanna has been
even more of target for yellow
journalism than President Mckinley.

New York, Sept. 12-Police Com
missioner Murphy said that the police
We're vigorously prosecuting the work
OF taking the census of the anarchists
Asked if there were going to be any
arrest; Commissioner Murphy replied
t,lat he did not know yet. The secre-
tary Of war. he said. had requested
the police of all cities to correspond
with him in the prosecution of an
archists and he was doing so.
"We are not attempting to round
them up," the commissioner said,
land there was no request from the
commissioner to do that. Every an
archist, especially those who are sus-
rected of being active, is carefully
watched by the police"

lNTEsTINEs NOT INJURED.
Physicians Gratified by the Result Of
the Operation.

Buffalo, Sept. S.-The operation up.
on President Mckinley lasted almost
an hour. Ether was administered. A
five inch incision was made where the
ball entered the abdomen and its
course was followed until the physi.
clans became satisfied that the kid.
ney had not been touched or the in
testines perforated, and that it had
lodged, probably, in the muscles of
the back where it could do no harm
for the present. The intestines were
lifted out through the incison and
carefully examined and the utmost
confidence exists that there was no
injury. The physicians were exceed,
ingly gratified at the result and pro-.
nounced the operation complete suc.

surroundings and with the ever re-
curing plaudits of an army of sight
seers ringing in his ears. the blow of
the assassin fell, and in an instant
pleasure gave way to pain; admiration
to agony; folly turned to fury and
pandemonium followed.
Down at police headquarters, sur
rounded by stern faced inquisitors of
the law, is a medium sized man of
commonplace appearance, with his
fixed gaze directed on the floor, who
presses his lips firmly together and
listens with an air of assumed indif-
ference to the persistent stream of
questions, arguments, objurgations
and admonitions with which his cap.
tors seek to induce or compel him to
talk.
Deed Was Well Planned.
It was just after the daily organ
recital in the splendid Temple of Mu-
sic that the dastardly attempt was
made. Planned with all the diabolical
ingenuity and fnesse of which an
archy or nihilism is capable, the would
be assassin carried out the work with
out hitch, and should his designs
fail and the president survive only to
Divine Providence can be attributed
that benefce1t result.
The president, though we'll guarded
by United States secret service de.
tsctives, was fully exposed to such an
attack as occurred. He stood at the
edge of the raised dais, upon which
stands the great pipe organ, at the
east side of the magnificent structure
Throngs of people crowded in at the
various entrances to gaze upon their
chief executive, perchance to clasp
his hand, and then fight their way
out in the good natured mob that every
minute swelled and multiplied at the
points of ingress and egress to the
building.
The president was in a cheerful
hearty evidences of good will which
right stood John G.. Milburn of Buff
falo, president of the Pan-American
exposition, chatting with the presi-
dent and introducing to him especially
persons of note who approached. Up
on the presidents left stood Mr.. Cor
telyou.

1t was shortly after p. m. when
ono of the throng which surrounded

plainly dressed in black, approached
as il to greet the president. Both
Secretary Cortelyou and President
Milburn noticed that the mans hand
was sWathed in a bandagc or hand
kerchief. Reports of bystandcrs differ
as to which hand. He worked his way
amid the stream of people up to the
edge OF the dais until he was within

OUT OF DANGER
PRESIDENTS PHYSICIANS coNFI.
DENT HE HAS PASSED THE
CRITICAL POINT.
Bullet Is Embedded in Muscles Of
Back and Unless 1t Causes Trouble
No Attempt Will Be Made to Re-
move lt-Plans Already Under Dis
cussion for a Day Of Rejoicing in
Which Everybody Will Participate.

Buffalo, Sept. 1.-THE president
will live, but probably will carry the
bullet of the would-be assassin with
him to the grave. This is the ex-
pressed opinion of Dr. Charles McBur-
ney of New York in statement to
representative Of the Associated Press
after the consultation of the physi-
clans during the morning. He an
nounced that the president had passed
the danger point and now only the
possibility of complications remained.
He also announced that unless the bull
let, embedded in the muscles OF the
back, caused trouble, there would be
no necessity to extract it. In his opin-
ion it would not even be located with
the X-ray. The only use Of the X-ray
he said, would be to satisfy curiosity
AL the other physicians were equally
confident, after the morning consulta-
ton, that recovery is assured. DR..
Mynter said the president was out Of
the woods and Dr.. Wasdin supple
mented the figure of speech by adding,
with plenty of daylight behind him. -
Dir. Roswell Park expressed it this
way: UNLESS unexpected complica-
tions occur, we expect him to re-
cover"
The day, which had dawned wet and
gloomy, cleared as the physicians de-
parted. The sun broke through the
clouds and bathed the ivy-clad house
in which the president lay in mellow
sunshine.
Good News JoyfuIly Received.
The faces of the sentries who paced
their beats before the sun grew radi-
ent, and the tireless workers of the
press were jubilant, and the people
who gathered at the lines were so
overjoyed with the strong assurance
given that several times they were on
the point of raising cheer, Even the
exposition managers began to plan a
day of Thanksgiving, not alone for the
exposition but one in which the whole
country could join. 1t is to be given
the aspect of a national day OF rejoic-
ing. They are arranging that on cer-
tain day the bells of all the cities and
towns in the United States be set ring
ing and that the rejoicing be heralded
with the footing of whistles and the
booming of cannon.
The members Of the cabinet, Sena.
tor Hanna, General Grosvenor and ali
the other distinguished friends of the
president who have remained here to
await the issue Of the attempt upon
his life, hurried to the Milburn resi-.
dence to learn the particulars and join
in the general jubilaton. For hours
carriages and automobiles streamed
UP Delaware avenue. Down town the
people gathered in crowds at the bulle-
tin boards and gave vent to their feel
ings in rejoicing, and at the eNposi-
ton the thousands Of visitors who
read the bulletins posted everywhere
burst into cheers.

WAS VERY BENEFICIAL.
Doctors Discuss the Dressing of the
Wound,

Buffalo, Sept. 12.-The morning con-
sultation of the presidents physicians
was much longer than usual, but this
had been expected after the action
taken the previous evening in opening
the abdomen and dressing the wound
Dr. Mynter was the first to leave the
house.
1T is all good news" said he, as he
reached the rope at which half a hun
dred newspaper men were ccngre-
gated. "The action we took last even
ing has proved beneficial and l feel
more confident in the presidents re-
covery than at any time since he was
shot Everything is favorable and we
have tripfed the amount of nourish-
ment. giving him now three teaspoons
full of beef juice every hour, instead of
one. But the presidents recovery will
be slow. All talk Of his sitting up in q.
.eW days and leaving Buffalo in a
week is nonsense. shall be satisfied
il he can be moved in six weeks"
DR.. Mynter said that DR.. Mann had
taken cut the stitches in the wound
last night. He described the necessity
for the action. explaining that an ir-
ritation OF the skin was not unusual in
such eases. He said that. generally
speaking, the president was doing ex-
cellently. He drank water freely,
passed it freely and the condition of
his bowels was satisfactory.
DR.. Roswell Park, who came from
the house two minutes later, gave the
most positive assurance of satisfaction
at the condition of affairs and in adj
dition gave to the Associated Press
plany of the circumstantial details of
The case at this moment to allay any
apprehension.
No Bad Effect on Patient.
"What was done last night" said
he, should not be called a secondary
operation OF any operation at all, as
1t was nothing Of that kind. 1t was
just that ordinary care given to an In
cison that is called for by the re-
quircments Of surgery. In fact. as af-
fectng the patient, it was little more
than opening his vest; SO that opening

On March 2 Pope Leo XIII, who was
born in 1910, entered upon his ninety-sec-
ond year. OF all the Bishops of Rome,
for st. Peter and his immediate success
sors can hardly be styled Popes, he. in
point of age, is far and away the first.
or the 262 occupants of the chair of st.
Peter though there are at least a score
of well-authorized octogenarians, he is
the only nonogenarian of that number.
Though he has broken the record in point
of years of life, 1t seems an impossibili-
~ that he should break it in length of
office, for his immediate predecessor, Pho
Mono, reigned for over one and thirty
years. and the present Pope has some
thing like eight years before he will have
been Supreme Pontin as long as that. A
ccntenarian Pope would indeed be a won-
der of the world.
The Thirteen Club might claim the
Pope for one of themselves. When he
was elected men not so much past mid
Ole age now can remember how some OF
the superstitious faithful begged of him
not to be the thirteenth Leo. During the
last century, of the seven Popes four
were Plus by title, two Leo, and one
Gregory, and it was semi-officially an
nounced that when Cardinal Pecci was
chosen Pope in 1878 he was to become
Gregory XVII. But his Holiness defied
augury and styled himself Leo Kill
There has been no nonogenarian sovereign
for after all, the Pope is a sovereign
within the recollection of man; the near
est approach was Kaiser Wilhelm l, the
old" German Emperor, who died on
March 8, 1888, just thirteen days before
entering upon his ninetieth year. The
two European rulers at present nearing
the nineties are the Grand Duke of Lux
embourg. who will be "a next birthday,
and the King of Denmark, So the Sth OF
next month.

The DandeIion and Its Uses.

II will surprise many, perhaps, to know
that the common dandelion, the leaves OF
which are often gathered from country
lanes and other places where the plants
grow wild, and taken home for making
dandelion tea or for eating as a salad,
forms one Of the salad vegetables sent to
Covent Garden market, and sold In sleeves
or smalled quantities, as required. Al
though 1t Is a much-neglected plant In
green state by the poor and middle classes
in towns, it has a large sale when used
in pills, the root being utilized. But FOR
the purposes of salad, here, again, me
professional cooks are responsible for the
increasing demand, as 1t forms another
OF the many ingredients used to impart
the bitterness and flavor so necessary In
a well-made salad. From the general
appearance of the roots that are market
ed II is TO be presumed that most or the
plants are cultivated, although the in
ferior plants that one sometimes sees are
no doubt collected from country districts
where they grow in wild state. IL Is the
best produce that always fetches the high
est price. and this applies even to so COM
mon a plant as the dandelion is consider
ed 10 be. In winter the leaves are blanch-
ed I'm the same way as other salad Vege-
tables are, and marketed with or without
the root attached. When they are mar
keted root and all. IL is best to lift them
with a root fork as is used sometimes
for lifting carrots In dry weather, when
the roots will come clear away. The
same culture applies to this as to other
salad vegetables. IL the cultivation OF
this plant became more general, there is
| Ittle doubt that It would become more
| popular with the public and the excel
| lent virtues of the plant better known.
