HER LIFE IS A VOID
MRS. M'KINLEY SIMPLY AWAIT , ING THE SUMMONS.
Crushed by Her Sorrow--An Her Ambitions and Hopes Lie Buried with Him in West

Canton to.) Special to Chicago Recor,

Canton to) Special to Chicago Record When pr. Rixey left Canton two months ago for Washington 1t was with the understanding that he would not re- turn to this city as the physician of Mrs. Mckinley rnless her condition should change for the worse from what 1t then was. Her health. for her, was then about when her physicians are asked now as to her health they reply in general, that she Is doing very well.
 The statement is true. but not all the truth. Physically. Mrs. Mckinley is about in the same condition as she has been for years. but there are features yabout her case that make her friends Anxious for her. It Is the period of Mrs would not be expected to go out much even If physically strong, but 1t is also the period of Mrs. McKinley's meian- choly. It Is over the latter feature that her friends are most anxious.
 |, The widow of the lamented President, excepting short drives, remains at home in the little wooden house in North Mar ket Street, made famous by the pilgrim ages of thousands of voters who swore fealty to Mckinley In 1898 and again in 190o, and which has entertained many of the best known statesmen of the nation.
 Says Life is a Void.
 To Mrs. Mckinley life is but void. She expressed to Dr. Manchester, the pastor and loving friend of the McKin- ley's, shortly after the martyred Pres- idents funeral, desire to die and join her husband. The desire is still present. She talks but little, to her friends, but sits at home and spends much time weeping, as she thinks of him who was for many years her stay and comforter. Her unspeakable loss is only felt
 Mrs. Mckinley Is constantly attended by her sister, Mrs. M. c. Barber, who has given up her usual home duties and devotes all her time and energy to r1ak- ing life as pleasant as possible for Mrs. Mckinley. The world put little knows with what love and sacrifice this atten- ton is given by Mrs. Barber.
 Tho day after the President was laid in the vault at Woodlawn Cemetery, Mrs. allowed to enter and to remain for short time beside the casket containing her beloved dead. This visit was repeat- ed daily. In order to make the stay as comfortable as possible for her, a rock ing chair was placed in the vault beside the casket and rug was over the floor to prevent the dampness from causing Mrs. Mckinley any i'll effects. Friends have at last prevailed on Mrs. Mckfn- ley not to enter the vault, and her visits now are to the tomb and to the family lot, where rest the ashes of her children
 Sees Few Visitors.
 Callers on Mrs Mckinley are but few. as she is SO Respondent that even her most intimate friends have failed to bring back any degree of cheer to her. Her pleasures, If she has any. are in the past, and mayhap in thinking of the fu- ture when her spirit shall commune With that of her husband.

 1. Homicide; res gestae; when declar- trial under an indictment for murder, whether declarations as to the cause and particulars of the fatal difficulty are within the res gestae thereof, depends on whether the circumstances are such as that 1t may be affirmed with reas- onable certainty that the declarations were produced by and instinctive upon the occurrences to which they relate rather than the retrospective narration of such occurrences. If the declarations were made soon after the difficulty stances transpiring between the difficulty and tho declarations it lis reasonably clear that they spring out of the trans- action and was an unpremeditated state ment thereof, and not mere statement of facts as held in the memory a mast transaction. such declarations Constitute part of the res gestae of the difficulty and are admissible.
