Details OF the Dastardly Attack on
the Nations Chief Executive
by an Anarchist.
Attempted Assassination Occurred In
the Templs of Music at Pan
American Exposition.

Milburn House Buffalo, n. Y, Sept.
1O.-The president will live, but will
probably carry the bullet of the would
be assassin with him TO the grave.
This is the expressed opinion of DR..
Charles McBurney of New York in
a statement to a representative of the
press after the consultation Of the
physicians Tuesday morning. He an
nounced that the president had passed
the danger point, and now only the
possibility of complications remained
He also announced that unless the bull
let embedded in the muscles of the
back caused trouble, there would be
nc necessity to extract it. In his
opinion it would not even be located
with the N-ray. The only use of the
Xray, he said, would be to satisfy cur
iosity. All the other physicians were
equally confident after the morning
consultation, that recovery was as
sured. DR.. Mynter said the president
was out Of the woods, and DR.. Was

multitude which thrOnged the edifce
began TO come TO a realizing sense Of
the awfulnesS Of the scene Of which
they had been unwilling witnesses. a
murmur arose, spread and swelled to
a hum Of confusion, then grew to a
babel Of sounds, and later TO a pande-
mouum Of noises
The crowds that Il moment before
had stood mute and motionleSS now,
with a single impulse, surged forward
toward the stage Of the horrid drama
while a hoarse cry welled up from a
thousand throats and n thousand men
charged forward TO lay hands upon
the perpetratOr Of the daStardly crime
For a moment the confusion was ter
rible The crowd surged forward re
eardleS of consequences. Men shout

children cried. Some of those nearest

OF a stampede, while hundreds Of 9th

crowded building and solve the mys-

overcoming plauditS of an army of
sightseerS ringing in his ears, the blow
as the assassin fell, and in an instant
pleasure gave way to pain. admiration
to agony, lolly turned to fury, and
pandemonium followed.
1T was just after the daily organ re-
ital in the splendid Temple OF Music
that the dastardly attempt was made.
Planned with all the diabolical nga-
nuity and fineSse Of which anarchy or
nihilism is capable, the wold-be aSsas-
sin carried out his work without Il
hitch, ana should his designs fail and
the president survive. only To Divine
prov idence can be attributed that re-
suit. The president, though well
guarded by United States secret ser
vice detectives, was fully exposed to
such an attack as occurred. He stood
at the edge of the raised daiS upon
which stands the great pipe organ at
the east side of the structure ThrOngs
OF people crowded i'm at the various
entrances to gaze upon the executive,
perchance TO clasp his hand and then
fight their way out in the good
natured mob that every minute
swelled and multiplied at the points of
ingress and egress to the building
The president was i'm a cheerful
mood and was enjoying TO the full the
hearty evidence of goodwill which
everywhere met his gaze. Upon his
right stood John G.. Nlilburn, of Buff
falO, president of the Pan-American
exposition. chatting with the president
and introducing TO him especially per
sons Of note who approached. Upon
the presidents left stood Cortelyou.
1t was shortly after 4 p. m. when one
of the thrOng which surrounded the
presidential party, n medium-slzed
man Of ordinary appearance and
plainly dressed in black, approached
as If to gree the president.
Both Secretary CortelyOu and Pres
ident Milburn noticed that the mans
hand was swathed in a bandage or
dkerchief-reports OF bystanders
differ as to which hand. He worked
his way amid the stream of people up
to the edge OF the dais until ne was
within two feet OF the president. Pres
ident Mckinney smiled, bowed and ex-
tended his hand I'm that spirit of gent
atty the American people so well
know, when suddenly the sharp crack
of a revolver rang out twice, loud and
clear above he hum OF voices, the
shutting OF myriad feet and vibrating
waves of applause that ever and anon
swept here and there over the assem-
blage.

EXACT NATURE OF THE WOUND

Not Necessarily Fatal.

Buffalo, Sept. 7.-Secretary Cortel-

statement, being the substance of the
bulletin issued by the physicians at Z

inches below the left nipple and one

trated the stomach. The opening in
the front wall Of the stomach was
carefully closed with silk stitches, aft
er which search was made for hole
in the back wall Of the stomach. This
was found and also closed in the same
way.
"The further course Of the bullet
could not be discovered, although care
full search was made. The abdomenal
wound was closed without drainage.

Nevertheless, his outer garments
were hastily loosened, and when a
trickling stream Of crimson was seen
TO wind its way down his breast
spreading it's tell-tale stain over the
white surface of the linen, their worst
fears were confirmed.
A force of exposition guards was on
the scene by this time, and an effort
was made to clear the building. for 10y
this time the crush was terrific. Spec
tators crowded down the stairways
from the galleries, the crowd or the
floor surged forward toward the ros'

of bewilderment, on his face. Then
he retreated step, while n pallor be-
gan to steal over his features. The
multitude, only partly aware that
something serious had happened,
paused in surprise, while necks were
craned and all eyes turned as one to
the rostrum where a great tragedy was
being enacted. Then came a commo-
ton. With the leap of a tiger three
men threw themselves forward, as
with one impulse, and sprang toward
the would-be assassin Two OF them
were United States secret service men
who were on the lookout and whose
duty it was TO guard against just such
a calamity as had here befallen the
president and the nation.
The third was Il bystander, a negro,
who had only an instant previously
grasped in his dusky palm the hand
of the president. AS one man the trio
hurled themselves upon the presidents
assailant. In n twinkling he was
borne to the ground. his weapon was
