plainly that the location of the bullet 1 had nothing to do with the final out come of the case. That resulted from gangrene, which appeared in the path | of the bullet. Even our efforts to-day to locate 1t, as stated in the report, were unsuccessful. l believe it went | into the muscle at the small of the | back We followed the hole made by | the bullet until it went into the mus cle We searched one and half hours | for the missile of death. The A-ray 1 instrument was not used, as the appll- ances were not handy. This serious damage was done through the organs through which it passed-not to the To- cality where it now rests.
 Your report says the first bullet, striking in the breast, did no harm,
 Yes, that is correct. That bullet evil dently struck button, and then shied off without doing any damage. Had 1t not met some obstruction it surely would have killed the president imme- diately Below the locality where 1t struck the flesh was quite flabby and confused. The to-days investigation de- veloped the fact that the first bullet struck the president on the right side of the breast bone, near the edge and between the second and third rlbs. Tn our original examination we said 1t was to the left of the breast bone. The mistake in the first announcement was due to the very nasty examination we made at the time of the shooting, when the question was not so much as to the exact locality of the wounds as to that of getting to work to save the presl- dents life.''
 "The report speaks of a lack of evil dence of repair work on the part of na- ture. Won't you explain just what bearing this had on the case at issue?'
 By that statement we mean that the general system of the patient fail ed to respond to the demand made up- on it for a revival from the shock suf- fered by the shooting. It was due prob ably to a low state of vitality; not to poor health mind you, but to system that was considerably run down and needed rest and recuperation'
 CONDITION OF THE HEART.
 ''The report says, the heart walls were very thin. Was this condition pe- cuiar to the president, or is it com mon complaint? Did the use of smok- ing tobacco by the president have any important bearing on the case?"
 "A man whose heart walls are very thin is usually one who leads a seden- tary life, and whose heart gets nosgreat amount of exercise This organ, like that of any other, requires active eXer- else to keep 1t in proper condition. No doubt the presidents heart was suf- ficient for him in his ordinary business affairs of life when no strain was re- auired. When extraordinary efforts were necessary the heart was unable to meet them.'

l Buffalo, Sept. 14.-Theodore Roosevelt | became president of the United States | just thirteen hours and ten minutes af- | ter the death of William Mckinley.

 President Roosevelt requested the members of the cabinet to retain their offices, at least for tke present, and

 He spoke with great deliberation and so still was the room that had his words been uttered in whispers they might easily have been heard by evS cry one present.
 MT, Roosevelt's face was stern and rigid. Lifting his eyes, he looked steadfastly into the face of the secre- tary for a moment, and in voice with marked flrmness and all of his charac- teristlc distinction replied.
 MT. Secretary, I shall take the oath at once, at the request of the members of the cabinet, and in this hour of deep and terrible national bereavement wish to state shall continue abso- lutely unbroken the policy of President Mckinley for the peace, prosperity and honor of our beloved country
 ADMINISTERING THE OATH.
 Judge Hazel then stepped forward and administered the following consti- tutional oath, MT. Roosevelt repeating slowly the sentences as spoken by the magistrate:
 I do solemnly swear that will faith fully execute the office of president of the United States, and will to the best of my ability preserve, protect and de- fend the constitutional of the United States etE

A Barn Destroyed Early Yesterday
 Morning

A Barn Destroyed Early Yesterday Morning Early yesterday morning an alarm was rung from box S5 at the corne- oi State and James streets by policeman who, standing at that corner, saw a fire over on Monroe street. Although there was fire alarm box within halt q block of the fire no one nearby had observed the blaze until the officer on James street saw the flames shooting uc.
 The blaze was in barn on Monroe street owned by the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company and rented by man named Johnson. When discovered the fire had gained great headway and enveloIed the en- tire barn. The building was entirely demolished and carriage, harness and other contents of the barn were de- stroyed the entire loss amounting to about $500.
 Mir. Johnson who keeps q horse in the barn, arose early yesterday morn ing to drive to Meridsn. It was before daylight and he carried a lantern which he left in the barn while he took his horse out to wash him three or four doors away from the barn. It was while he was gone that the fire broke out and 1t is thought that it was start ed by the lantern which was left in the barn.

GANGRENE OF THE STOMACH
RESULTS OF AUTOPSY ON THE
 PRESIDEN1'S BODY.
Gangrene Throughout the Whole Course of the Builet-Never Had Chance to Live-The Official Report.

Buffalo, Sept. 14.-Gangrene poisoning from the bullet, which penetrated both walls of the stomach, caused President McKinley's death. The official autopsy Saturday morning at Il o'clock at the Milburn house established this fact X The report of the physicians who made the autopsy was made public Saturday afternoon, and is as follows:
 The bullet which struck the breast 9 bone did not pass through the skin, and did little harm. The other bullet passed through both walls of the stom- ach near it's lower border Both holes were found to be perfectly closed by the stitches, but the tissue around each hole had become gangrenous. After passing through the stomach the bullet passed into the back walls of the ah- z domen, hitting and tearing the upper Z end of the kidney. This portion of the bullet track also was gangrenous the gangrene involving the pancreas, The { bullet has not yet been found There was no sign of peritonitis or disease of x other organs. There was no evidence any attempt at repair on the part S of nature, and death resulted from the < gangrene which affected the stomach around the bullet wounds, as well as the \ tissues around the further course of the \ bullet Death was unavoidable by any z surgical or medical treatment, and was the direct result of the bullet wound,

 The autopsy was desired to deter mine the exact cause of death. During the last two or three days some of the doctors inclined to the belief that the shot that struck the breast bone was largely responsible for death. The im- < 1act from the bullet was very severe and this, it was thought by some had produced a shock on the heart muscles. The autopsy was performed by pr. Gaylord and Dr. Matzinger, of the New York State Laboratory, connected with the University of Buffalo, in the pres ence of the entire staff of consulting Ihysicians. District Attorney Penney was present in his official capacity, and HI E. Story, stenographer of the dis trict attorneys office, took the notes as they were dictated. During his treat ment the presidents physicians admin sistered oxygen, camphor, strychnine and adrenalin. The president was in a scomatose state for about six hours al- together. He did not suffer much pain, and there was an absence of stertorous breathing which frequently proves a distressing accompaniment of weak heart. pr. Munson is in charge of the
