combining sincerity and unselfshness
with the most sunny disposition.
His death, and the unlawful means by
which it was accomplished, We do
heartily deplore, in that it has removed
from our midst man among men,
true American among Americans, and
statesman among statesmen who was
ever first to answer when the future Of
his country was darkened by clouds Of
adversity. We do denounce in IN
measured terms the fend incarnate who,
as the representative of the most in

foul that the universe shudders at the
thought and il Is our fervent prayer
that he receive his just deserts, and like

CAUSE OF DEATH ANNOUNCED.
Autopsy Reveals Fact That President Died Is
Result Of Toxemla.

Following il the official report 81 the
autopsy conducted on the body Of Presi-
dent Mckinley:
"The bullet which struck the breast
bone did not pass through tho skin and
did little harm. The other bullet passed
through both walls Of the stomach noar
it's lower border. Both holes were found
to be perfectly closed by the stitches,
but the tissue around each hole had be-
come gangrenous. After passing through
the stomach, tho bullet passed into the
back walls Of the abdomen, hitting and
tearing tho upper end Of the kidney.
This portion Of the bullet track was also
gangrenous, the gangrene involving the
pancreas.
The bnllet has not yet been found.
There was no sign Of peritonitis or dis
ease Of other organs. The heart wallis
was very thin. There was no evidence
Of any attempt at repair on the part Of
nature, and death resulted from the
gangrene winch affected tho stomach
around the bullet
Death was unavoidable by any surgi-
cnl or medical treatment, and was the
direct result OF the bullet wound
This statement clearly eXonerates the
distinguished physicians who treated
the president throughout his brief i'll
ness and scouts tho belief, which seems
to have gained popular credence, that
tho presidents death was due to the
fact that he had been allowed 10 take
solid food into the stomach before that
organ had been sufficiently healed to.
perform its natural functions.
There is reason to believe that the.
bullet which ended President Mckin-
leys life was poisoned or that it's effect
was practically the same as a poisoned
bullet though it may not have been
prepared. A chemical examination of
the remaining bullets il herovolyer will
settle the point.
day by the physicians who had attended
the president, d state Of affairs was dis
covered which somewhat surpassed them.
Tt was discovered first that the bullet
had pierced the top Of the left kidney,
carrying away the top; second, that it
had riddled the pancreatic gland, which
supplies the pancreatic gland, which
supplies the pancreatic fluid to the in
testines, which, mingling with the
starchy and glutinous foods renders
them capable of assimilationr third,
that the tissue through which the
bullet had passed were dead and gam
grenous and that the poison Of the
gangrene absorbed by the blood and
carried back to the heart was what had
caused the presidents death.

The Republic this evening the following
statement:
"Regardless Of the fact that Mr.. Mckin-
ley, whom We are caring for. Is President
of the United States. and looking at the
case merely as I would that of a man OF
TO especial prominence. I still believe the
Presidents condition is such as to cause the
gravest anxiety. He has BY no means
passed the point where his recovery is as
sured-
IT do not mean that everything about his
condition, has not so far been entirely sat
isfactory or that any serious complications
are likely to ensue as the result OF reopen
ing the Presidents wound last night. but
still wish to be distinctly understood as
maintaining tina, the American people as
yet have no reason TO take the Presidents
recovery for granted.
I'VE, Of course. believe he will recover
but it is far too early as yet TO make :n-
positive statement. So far as have hat
time, / have read what the great newspa'
pers of the country have said about the
case, and I wish to say that. in its treat

recovery. The Republic has taken most
conservative and reasonable position. ene
