an assassin, presumably All anarch-
ist, while holding a public reception
in the Temple of Music, on the Pan
American grounds, about 4 o'clock
this afternoon.
The assassin shot him twice, one
bullet entering his right breast, and
the other entering the abdomen.
A detail of secret service men were
near the President. They closed in
on the assassin and placed him under
arrest.
He was taken under heavy guard
to a nearby police station.
The greatest excitement prevails
and further details as to his identity
are lacking. The President was
shaking hands with a multitude of
people as the assassin approached
him.
The assassin had a handkerchief
over one hand as if bandaged. AS
he moved forward he put out his
hand presumably to shake the hand
of the President. He shot through
the handkerchief at the President
two times and each bullet took ef-
feet.
The President was taken to the
hospital on the exposition grounds
and medical aid was summoned. One
of the bullets was extracted by the
surgeons and everything was done to
make him as easy as possible. At s
O'Clock the surgeons gave out the re-
port that the President was con-
scious and resting easily.
UnfOunded Rumor of Death.
The assassin was taken to police
headquarters at S o'clock and locked
up in a cell and put under close
guard. When questioned by the po-
lice he stated his name was Fred
Nieman, and that he came here re-
Gently from Detroit. He denies be-
ing an anarchist. He is a Pole by
nationality.
He refused to tell anything about
himself and would not give any rea-
son for committing the dastardly act.
He said he conceived the idea this
morning. The police will put him
through a severe examination later.
At $40 o'clock the President was
reported as being conscious and as
comfortable as could be expected.
A rumor was circulated that he
was dead and was quickly disproved.
Mrs. Mckinley was at the home of
Mr.. John c. Milburn, president OF
the exposition company, when the
shooting occurred.
She was kept in ignorance of it on
account of her weak condition. EN-
inent surgeons were summoned
from all parts of the city to attend
the injured man. DR.. Roswell Park
rushed from Niagara Falls on spe-
cial train. DIR. Rixey, the Presi-
dents physician, was summoned at
once. Everything possible is being
done to relieve him.
Lynchins Threatened.
