PROJECT POSTPONED.

The public library project came up
in the council last night and was
postponed until after December /,
which was a delicate way Of the pres
ent councils expressing its desire to
avoid the responsibility for any action
whatever in the matter. In the argu-
ments pro and con, some very good
points were made but none Of them is
sufficient to excuse the city, at least in
the minds Of the people, if il lets slip
an opportunity to get a s3t, 900 build
ing for nothing. 1t is very plain,
however, that the city now has no
funds with which TO purchase site
such as should be provided for pub
lie library, and owing to the fact that
it is uncertain when there is to be an
other tax levy made, the present
council could not with any degree Of
certainty guarantee the money for a
site or an appropriation. for it goes
out Of Office in three weeks. and the
new council might refuse to appro-
pirate the necessary amounts after the
present council had promised them.
The new council would not be obliga-
ted to appropriate $4,000 or any other
amount on resolutions passed by the
present council. As long as future
councils desire TO appropriate that
amount annually TO maintain n IL
brary, it will be all right, but when
ever "A council desires TO cut of the
funds. there could be nothing to pre-
vent it. for a council cannot spend
money that is not appropriated, and
cannot appropriate money beyond the
levy for each fiscal year.
II is we'll to fairly and impartially
weigh all the facts in the case. They
do not look very reassuring for the
library promoters, but they are facts
nevertheless. Ii may have been wise
for the council to take the action it
did last night. The new council
will be in two years, and II it guar
antees the money for a site, or an
annual appropriation of $500, it
will have two years to make good
its promises, while the present coun-
Gil, had it taken any definite action.
would have been totally unable to
fulfill it, promises, and Whist it did
last night might have been undone
in few weeks by the new council 1t
is unpleasant for the people to have
TO wait, but it may be the wisest
thing to do.

The third American President to die by
the hand of an assassin has taken his
place among the martyrs. nation is
bowed with grief.
Funeral formalities and the outward
manifestations of a nations grief were
all that remained after Saturday. With
these over, the curtain falls upon the
third great tragedy in the annals of
American Presidents, and that tragedy
and the career of William Mckinley
have passed into history Already the
machinery of the chief executive
branch Of the government has resumed
its routine.
The body of the President lay Satur-
day night in the room wherein he died.
1t was removed to the parlors of the
Milburn house for the funeral services
at IL o'clock Sunday morning. The ser
vices were simple in form, and were
private, only the immediate members
OF the Mckinley family and their clos
est friends were assembled. Mrs. Nc
Kinley was not with them.
AS the daily life of William Mckinley
was marked by the greatest simplicity,
so were the last rites and services over
his caSket at Buffalo. Solemn and i'm
pressive, full of the lessons that the
President had sought to live out in
aheir fullnesS, there was no pomp or cir
cumStance to the closing scenes in the
aOw famous Milburn house.
With the sacred hymns that had been
his fayOrite music, with the loving
words of those who had known him,
with Just n few of the nearest and
dearest friends gathered at the side of
wretch was prepared for his last jour
nEy. Then the casket was closed over
tits precious burden and borne through
agae streets of the city to where the mul-
cession for the last view of the kindly
face.
immediately after the services the
1enaiuS of the late President were
GAken to the Buffalo City Hall, and
xherc lay in state from l o'clock in the
afternoon until II O'clock at night.

and physical collapse wore out other
at II O'clock at night When the doors
were closed it was estimated that over
10000 persons had viewed the remains.
The body Of the President was guarded
throughout the night by United States
soldiers, and at 7:3O O'Clock Monday
morning it was removed from the City
Hall, and under escort of soldiery taken
to the union station, from whence a fun
eral train went direct to Washington.
Over the hills and through the valleys
that lie between Buffalo and the seat of
government moved the funeral train
which bore to the capital all that was
mortal of the dead President. AS it roll
ed slowly past city and village, town and
hamlet, it's silent burden lying in solemn
state beneath the folds of the flag, all in
full view in the great funeral coach, the
people of the land gathered at every sta
ton to pay sad tribute to him who gov
erned them. ManifeSting itself all along
the route there was an excess of grief, a
depth of sorrow, a heartfelt anguish that
tells better than aught else the place that
America has reserved for William Nc
Kinley in it's roll of those it loved the
best The entire route was lined with
thousands of weeping and sadfaced men,
women and children.
That journey from Buffalo with the
body of President Mckinley was jour
ney from the great lakes to tidewater
through walls of weeping people. Bells

sands of the same men and women watch
ed it from curb and window.
The funeral cortege moved from the
White House at 8 o'clock sharp. AS it
moved a steady drizzle was falling. AS
the casket was borne from the portico
upon the shoulders of the sailors and reg
ulars men stood in the raw drizzle with
bare heads exposed to the east wind that
swept across the square. The marine
band played Nearer, My God, to Thee"
as the casket was lifted out of the hearse
and carried up the east steps of the CAPT
toll.
At 1 o'clock, while the tremendous
crowd was surging toward the east en-
trance to the rotunda, thousands of peo-
ple many of whom were women and chill
dren, were caught in a crush at the foot
of the main staircase. Scores of women
and children tainted and many were
borne into the capitol where medical aid
was rendered.
At the Capitol exercises the members
of the two houses entered under escort
of their respective sergeants- arms. The
casket and the catafalque were decorated
with silk American flags, also the walls
at intervals around the rotunda. AS
there is law forbidding the draping of
public buildings with Grape the exterior
of the Capitol wore no badge of mourn
ing. The firing of saluteS and the tolllng
of bells took place at the closing of the
impressive funeral services at the Capt.
toll, and for the remainder of the after
noon the general public paid last respects
to the honored dead.

GANGRENE CAUSES DEATH.
Autopsy Discloses Startling Condition
of MckinIey's Stomach.

autopsy D1SCIOSeS startling Condition
of Mckinley's Stomach.
The following report of the autopsy
upon the remains of President Mckinley
was issued Saturday:
The bullet which struck over the breast
bone did not pass through the skin, and did
little harm The other bullet passed through
both walls of the stomach near its lower
border. Both holes were found to be per-
fectly closed by the stitches, but the tissue
around each hole had become gangrenous.
After passing through the stomach the bull
let passed into the back walls of the abdO-
men, hitting and tearing the upper end of
the kidney. This portion of the bullet track
was also gangrenous, the gangrene involv-
ing the pancreas. The bullet has not vet
been found. There was no sign of peri
tOnitis or disease of other organs. The heart
walls were very thin. There was no evil
dence of any attempt at repair on the part
of nature, and death resulted from the gan
creme which affected the stomach around
the bullet wounds, as we'll as the tissues
around the further course Of the bullet.
Death was unavoidable by any surgical or
medical treatment, and was the direct re-
suit of the bullet wound

garb of grief. Great crowds of people
! gathered along the route. They made
| banks of the fields and at the road cross

| and piles of lumber. They perched upon
locomotives and cars and roofs and fac
tories All barred their heads as the train
swept by. Schools were closed for the
hour, and in front of them stood the lit
tie boys and girls Many of them held
flowers and some had tiny flags draped
with black. At every school house there
is a flagstaff from which t1oated the ma

Thus William Mckinley made his last

journey which was one long benediction
from the hearts of the people.
Ceremonies in Washington.
After the wonderful journey from Buff
falo-a journey of nearly 500 miles be-
tween parallel lines of barred heads and
weeping eyes--the funeral train drew into
the Washington station Monday night at
$40 o'clock. 4 tremendous throng was
assembled to greet it. Historic Pennsyl-
vania avenue was a sea of faces, as far as
the eye could reach. Not many more
people were gathered there those two
4ths of March when William Mckinley
rode along this same thoroughfare from
the White House to the capitol to receive
the civic crown. Monday night he was
crowned with a wreath of love and grief
In the press of people awaiting the
train were officers of the army and navy
and high officials of the executive
branches With President Roosevelt at
its head the cortege was quickly formed
and the casket containing the body of the
late President was quickly borne to the
executive mansion amid scenes of Woe
and sorrow. There it was placed upon a
bier erected in the famous east room
scene of so much of the ceremonial his
tory of our country, and there it was left
for the night under the guard of sailors
and soldiers.
The funeral procession formed Tuesday
morning and the body was conveyed To
| the Capitol, where it was again received
by the guard of honor and lay in state in
the rotunda of the Capitol. The sad pro-
| cession accompanying the remains was
| nearly as large as the one that passed
up and down the same route last March.
when William Mckinley entered upon
his second term. Thousands of the same
