Baltimore Sent. 6.-Ths~news Of the at
tempted assassination of the president
did not reach Cardinal Gibbons until
nearly o'clock in the evening. Upon
being informed that the condition Of the

sank into a chair and said:
1T is sad. indeedh that an insane fan
attic can have it in his power to endanger
the life Of the head of a great nation like
this and a man possessing the many viz
tues OF President Mckinley. The man
who did it must be a bad man. The pres
ident has no personal enemies and no one
but a mad man would have committed
such a deed. II. however, he has a spark
Of reason left and it can be shown that
he is responsible, no punishment would
be too great for him"
After moments hesitation the cardi-
nal resumed:
81 am filled with sadness beyond ex-
preston at receiving this news. I not
only honor President Mckinley as the
head of a great nation, but 1 have the
privilege of regarding him as friend.
and am indebted TO him for many fav-
ors. 1t is my earnest prayer that the
Lord may spare him to fiji out the term
he has begun so well. But whatever be

for it.

that the man who shot President Nc
Kinley was an anarchist
Il do not believe that he is an onar-

shoots a president or a king is not an
anarchist. Guitea, who shot President
Garfield was not an anarchist. He was
a disappointed office-seeker. Anyway"
Most went on, I'VE know nothing Of that
fellow. Come from Poland does he. I
am sure he IS no anarchist. There are
no anarchists in Poland. Poland is a
Catholic country"
