CANADIANS ANXIOUS
FOR INFORMATION.
The interest in the presidents con.
dttion was such across the Canadian
border that the Associated Press was
asked to furnish a bulletin Sunday
morning to be read in the churches
Of Quebec and Montreal and many
requests Of a similar character came
directly to Secretary Cortelyou from
different parts of the United States.
5he messages Of sympathy from all
over the United States and all over
the world, in fact, fairly overwhelmed
Secretary Cortelyou. Two more white
house stenographers were sent for and
upon their arrival, perhaps, today,
some OF the more important messages
may be made known. Almost every
government in the world had been
heard from by Sunday, most Of the
crowned heads Of Europe sending per-
tonal messages. Among the latter
are King Edward VII, Emperor viii.
liam, the kings Of Portugal, Italy and
Sweden and the Sultan CT Turkey,
President Loubet Of the republic of
France has also cabled his schlpathy
direct. One Of the most t.uching
messages thus far received was from
Madame Labori the wife of Maitre
Labori, who defended Dreyfus in his
famous trial at Rennes.
Mrs. Mckinley continued to bear
up bravely and her fortitude under
the circumstances was regarded as
remarkable. One of her dearest and
closest friends, Mrs. Rand, of Wash.
ington, arrived here and will probab-
ly remain with her during this trying
period.
Secretary Cortelyou was able to
take some rest Sunday morning for
the first time since the tragedy. The
great confidence which the president
has in his secretary could not have
been more strikingly illustrated than
at the exposition hospital when he
was about to be placed upon the op
Grating table. The president realizeu
that the sooner the operation wa
performed the better and he was per
fectly willing to submit himself to the
knife. His only solicitude was as t,
he competency Of the surgeons VIII,
were to perform the operation. Jus
before he was placed upon the tabl,
he called Secretary Cortelyou to hi
and asked whether the surgeons WEI.

that he had made inquiries and tina
they were reputed to be among tn,

president accepted the assurance in.

that he was ready.
