WERE MUCH EXCITED
C. H. Brooks in Buffalo When
President Was Shoi.
COULD HARDLY BELIEVE IT
People We're Shocked When
They Heard the News.

Mr.. Charles H Brooks OF the law firm
Of Houston & Broks Of this city was in
Buffalo at the tine the president was
shot He had some business to attend
TO in the New England state and he
found when he reached Buffalo that he
could reach his destination almost as
soon Il he stayed IN thar city and took
in the exposition. He talked with q repor-
Ter for the Eagle about the excitement
there. He said:
u Ieft the grounds at about half
. past three. left the exposition and
took street car for town. 1 was stay
Ing AZ the IriqOus hotel and when / got
there I noticed that something exciting
had occurred from the actions OF the
people on The streets I was going down
town on a Main street car and when we
reached the hotel got of and the drst
thing I heard was that the president was
shot. and then someone said he was
dead. I did not know that the president
WAS going 70 be 1t the exposition that
day or I would have been there 70 see
him He was supposed 90 be at Niagara
arranged Tor HI min the Temple OF M
sic he was shot at seven minutes past
four by eastern time. Z got 10 the main
part OF town about fifteen minutes past
four and heard the news as soon as
got of the car The people were very
indignant. because they considered Pres
ident Mckinley their guest, and the
crowds gathered around the newspaper
bulletin boards to hear the news. There
was a great deal of talk ab0at lyuching
the assassin. bur the crowd had no leader.
The police Of Buffalo are all right. They
soon had the crowds under control. They
would not let large numbers Of men col
Iect IN any one place. At first the streets
were blocked il front Of the newspaper
Offices but as soon as the police got over
their first apparent scare they kept the
crowds moving. When the news drst
came, no one would believe it, and when
the first reports were confirmed the peo-
PIE acted as If they were stunned and
hardly knew what 70 do. The news came
as such a blow and 50 sudden that there
was not time for any Organization. The
police took the prisoner 70 the central
police station and they ropel OF q place
and stationed a crowd OF soldiers and po-
lice inside. and nc one who did not have
business in the Office was allowed To en-
ter The crowd was orderly and there
was no display Of rouEhness When Z
LEFT Buffalo at $50 that evening the pres
ident was removed to the 1Iuburn home
II it had been p Kansas crowd that did
ehe talking, there would have been some
thing-done with that man"
