INDIANA OBSERVANCE
In View of Presidents Condition 1T
May be Abandoned.

Owing TO the decided change for the
worse in the condition of President McKin-
ley 1t will probably be decided early to-
day by Governor Durbin to abandon the
trip TO Buffalo and the celebration of In
diana day.
All the preparations for the special train
and the observance of the day at Buffalo
tomorrow had been made, but the condi-
ton of the President will no doubt necessi-
tate a change.
After President Mckinley was shot Gov
ernor Durbin decided to abandon the day,
and issued an address to the people Of the
State to that effect. 1t was only upon the
assurances of the exposition officials and
Senator Fairbanks that the President de-
sired all programmes to be carried out
that it was again decided to observe the
day as first decided upon. II is safe to
say, in view of present conditions, that
Indiana day will be abandoned. Colonel
Charles E. Wilson, when notified this morn
ing of the Presidents condition. said the
local arrangements were such that they
could be abandoned upon very short notice
and that no action would be taken until
later in the day. Governor Durbin spent
the night at Anderson, but came back to
the city this morning.

HOURS OF SUSPENSE.

BUFFALO, N Y, Sept. 1S.-President
Mckinley began to sink shortly after
o'clock this morning, after a critical period
of twelve hours. in which alarm and hope
mingled in the emotions of those who sur
rounded him. Trouble began on the pre-
ceding afternoon through the failure of the
digestive organs to perform their func-
tons. The necessity for nourishmenr had
been pressing for several days, and the
partial failure of artificial means had led
to the adoption OF natural means. The
rectum, through which nourishment had
been injected previously to Wednesday,
became irritated and rejected the enemas.
This forced the physicians to try to feed
him through the mouth, probably before
the stomach was prepared
The first administration of beef juice
through the mouth, however, seemed to
agree with the patient and the physicians
were highly gratifed at the way the
stomach seemed to receive the food. Dr.
McBurney was especially jubilant over the
action Of the stomach, and yesterday morn
ing before his departure for New York.
dwelt on the fact that the stomach seemed
to have resumed it's normal functions. The
breakfast of chicken broth, toast and cof-
fee given yesterday morning spoken
of by all the physicians as strong evidence
of the Presidents marked Improvement.
1t was only when it became apparent late
in the morning that this food had not
agreed with the President that the first
genuine anxiety appeared.
The first note of alarm was sounded In
the official bulletin yesterday afternoon,
which spoke of the Presidents fatigue.
President Mckinley, already weak from
the ordeal of the tragedy and suffering.
complained of an increasing feeling of
fatigue. He had been so buoyant and
cheerful that his complaints were regard

Itch tha
With a temperature of 1902 it should have

condition after that grew steadily worse.
The staff of physicians, augmented by DR..
Stockton, who had temporarily taken the
place of DR.. McBurney, was summoned
early in the evening and there was a con-
ference.
At $50 last night the physicians an
nounced officially that the Presidents con-
dition was not so good. The problem of dis
posing Of the food in the stomach was be-
coming a serious one and the danger of
heart failure increased.

of the bowels would have the effect of
allaying the wild pulsations of the heart.
His pulse did drop to 12O and the prospect
was slightly brighter. But, owing to the
Presidents extreme weakness and his ia
tigue, no attempt was made to conceal the
serious apprehension which was felt The
feeling of depression increased in volume
and intensity.
Secretary Cortelyou insisted that the
truth should be made public by the doc
tors. and the bulletins themselves were
telling their unfortunate story all too
plainly. There was still hope that the
worn and weary patient would be better
Cortelyou said it was not probable that
another bulletin would be issued until
morning.
Hope came once more to the breasts of
those who had waited for hours in anxiety.
The physicians parted for the night and
every sign was a cheering one. There had
been disquieting pulse action for several
hours, but practically all of the unfavorable
symptoms had been attributed to the stom-
ach trouble, and it was thought they would
cause which was supposed to have created
them.
The unofficial reports at o'clock and 100
o'clock were both of satisfactory nature
and the watchers gathered about the house
prepared for an uninterrupted night.
Another thunder storm came out of the
North, and a few minutes play of the
lightning brought rain in a heavy down.

west to complete the cheerlessness of the
night.
Shortly after o'clock the physicians and
nurses detected a weakening of the heart
action. The pulse fiuttered and weakened
and the President sank toward collapse
The end appeared to be at hand. Res
toratives were speedily applied. and the
physicians fought the battle with all the
reserve force of science. Action was i'm
mediate and decisive. Digitalis and strych-
nine were administered, and as last re-
sort saline solution was injected into the
veins.
A general alarm went speeding to the con-
sulting physicians and trained nurses as fast
as messengers, the telegraph and the tele-
phone could carry it. The restoratives did
not at once prove effective, and it was
realized that the President was In an ex-
tremely critical condition. This realization

The messengers who returned with the

Pistol.

A dispatch from Frankfort, says
State Superintendent of Schools
McChesney, in letter from Pike
County, was asked if it was not un-
lawful and calculated to injure the
school and intimidate the children
for the teacher to carry a forty
four caliber pistol on his person in
the school-room and have a man
with a rifle to stand guard on the
outside?
The letter goes on to say that a
teacher in a certain district in that
county does go around armed in his
school each day and a friend ac
companies him and stands guard
on the outside with rifle while the
lessons are being said. The writer
thinks the circumstances warrant
the removal of the teacher, but Nc
Chesney will likely rule that the
matter is not within his jurisdic-
Uion.
