Secretary Cages Estimate of the
Dead Man.
Secretary Gage said today in regard to
his late chief:
'It seems like mockery. to attempt to
eulogize him. No words can carry from
one mind to another proper understand
ing of that unique personality. He him.
self must be his best interpreter His acts,
his utterances, with their indescribable
charm, have made him known to the Amer
lean people. Through this they under
stand and appreciate him. In their hearts
can be found the love and the gratitude
which his unselfish, untiring and affection
ate devotion to his country justly inspire.
If / speak of him it must be simple and
without exaggeration. In an active life,
extending now over a long period, I have
met many men Of superior powers and
manifold graces but after nearly five years
of close association with this man and
constant study of his mental and moral
characteristics I have come to regard In
him the combined qualities which make a
man truly great, as the superior of all the
men have ever known. In his death our
people are indeed stricken with the most
grievous loss''

MRS. MCKINLEY VERY BRAVE.
Her Sister Told Her the Dreadful
Story of Death.

Story of Death.
MILBURN HOUSE, BUFFALO, Septem-
Der 14.-It is definitely learned today that
1t was Mrs. Barber. Mrs. McKinleys sis
ter, who broke the news of her great loss
to the stricken wife. She went from the
bedside Of the dead President to the wife,
whose condition was such that 1t seemed
best to remove her from the sick room be-
fore the end.
Mrs. Mckinley is occupying a large
south room in the Milburn house, overlook
ing Delaware avenue and Ferry streets.
Through the drawn shades the early morn
ing light was breaking when Mrs. Barber
told her that the sleep into which the
|President had passed would know no awak-
ening
Mrs. Mckinley, whose extreme delicacy
was for years the Presidents one great
sorrow. received the news with unexpected
calmness, and at once acquiesced in the re-
quest of her physician and family to leave
the details Of the sad ceremonies In which
the entire nation Is to join entirely In the
hands Of the official and personal friends
who are assembled.
Remained I'm Her Room All Day.
All day long she has remained quietly In
her room. stricken to the soul. but bravely
"the major" as she lovingly calls the late
President, would bid her to do so.
DR.. Rixey, who for years has guarded her
from all excitement and was in constant
attendance during her recent illness in San
Francisco, is much encouraged by the way
she is bearing up at present, although 1t is
quite possible the strain Of the next twenty
four hours may make 1t desirable for her to
return with her sister to Canton to avoid
the serious strain of a state funeral.
Mr.. and Mrs. Abner Mckinley, Mrs. La
fayette McWiIliams of Chicago, Mrs. Dun
can and Miss Helen Mckinley, the Presi-
dents sisters; Mrs. Barber and Miss Bar
Der Of Canton and Mrs. Myron T. Herrick

McKinley's few wants and in trying to for
ufy her for the ordeal to come.

ident, who called this morning, accom-
panied by her young son, Garret A. Hobart,

Well-Deserved Tribute to a Star Stan
Correspondent.
During the past few weeks hundreds OF
kilograms in The Star, signed IN. O.. M"
from Pittsburg, and for the last week from
Buffalo, have been read by thousands, and
commented upon for their news value and
clearness of style and diction. Last even
ing a number of Washington correspon-
dents of the leading New York and Chi
cago papers were discussing the situation,
and one of them remarked that the tel
egrams from N. o. Messenger, both from
Pittsburg and Buffalo were by long odds
the best that had appeared in any news
paper. This statement was unanimously
agreed to- and a telegram to that effect,
signed by every one of them, was at once
sent to Mr.. Messenger at Buffalo. 1t was
q graceful act, and such an acknowledge
ment coming from his fellow workers in
the newspaper profession was doubtless
highly appreciated by The Stars staff cor
respondent.

Secretary Root Giving the Matter
Serious Consideration.
PARITY OF GOLD AND SILVER
Fixed Rate of Exchange Between
American aud ueylcsn Dollars WIZ
Most Probably be Fixed.

New York, June 24.-Secy. Root has
not lost sight Of the question Of the
Philippines currency say Washington
adyices to the journal Of Commerce,
and is likely soon to take II up for SER
lous consideration There was strong
pressure last autumn for executive ac-
ton which would relieve the actual
scarcity Of silver coins in the islands
This scarcity was caused by the heavy
demand for currency in China while the
forces of the powers were at their max
imum there, but it seems TO have cured
itself to some extent. In view Of the
partial amelioration Of these condl-
tions 1t is probable that Secy. Root Will
conhne his action to the study of the
situation with the view of recommend.
ing to Congress comprehensive plan
for permanent currency system in
the Philippines. The plan which Secy.
Root and Secy Gage discussed last
autumn. and which had the cordial en-
dorsement of tht secretary OF the treas
ury, was the adoption Of fixed rate Of
exchange between the American gold
dollar and the Mexican silver dollars,
which have been the standard coin in
the Philippines.
Secy. Gage Is disposed to believe that
by a reasonable wisdom in the man
agement Of the coinage and the gold
fund the operation Of the system would
be automatic in keeping the silver coins
at par with gold at the rate fixed and
in regulating the quantity by the move
ment Of gold.
