American Countries and the Inn
mediate Building of the Isthmian
Canal.
Buffalo, Sept. 16.-President Roose-
welt has outlined in some detail the
policy he will follow during his incum-
bency of Office. 1t will be remembered
that when he took the oath of office
he stated with much definiteness:
ut shall be my aim to continue alb
solutely unbroken the policy of Presi-
dent Mckinley for the peace (and he
emphasized that word), prosperity and
honor of the country"
Yesterday the President gathered to-
gether some personal friends in Buff
falo and those members of the cabinet
who were here and gave to them sucn
ideas as he had already formulated for
the conduct of public affairs and his
own policy. In no sense are they d.
Vergent from what has been understood
as Mr.. McKinley's policy. This policy,
as outlined to his friends at yesterdays
conference, will be for a more liberal
and extensive reciprocity in the pur-
chase and sale of commodities, so that
the overproduction of this country can
be satisfactorily disposed of by fair
and equitable arrangements with for
eign countries. The abolition entirely
of commercial war with other coun-
tries, and the adoption of reciprocity
treaties.
The abolition of such tariffs on for
eign goods as are no longer needed for
revenue, if such abolition can be had
without harm to our industries and
labor.
Direct commercial lines should be es-
tablished between the eastern coast OF
the United States and the ports in
South America and the Pacific coast
ports of Mexico, Central America and
South America.

as possible of the isthmian canal. so as
to give direct water communication
with the coasts of Central America,
South America and Mexico.
The construction of a cable owned
by the government connecting our
mainland with our foreign possessions,
notably Hawaii and the Philippines.
The use of conciliatory methods OF
arbitration in all disputes with foreign
nations so as to avoid armed strife
The protection of the savings OF the
people in banks and in other forms of
investments by the preservation of the
commercial prosperity of the country
and the placing In positions OF trust

MAKING ANALYSIS.
To Determine whether or Not Cool
EOsz Used Poisoned Bullet.

Buffalo, Sept. 16.-Dr. Herman Mat
Finger is making the meteorological
analysis to determine whether the bull
let's fired from Czolgosz's revolver that
ended the life of President Mckinley
did not bear some poisonous substance.
He is being assisted by DR.. Henry r.
Gaylord of the state pathological la
boratory, and Herbet M. Hill, the city
chemist, who will make an examina-
ton of the bullets. Dr. Matzinger, when
asked as to whether in his opinion the
gangrenous affection was caused in the
natural progress of the disease from
the gunshot wound, or whether it
might be the result of poisoned bull
let, said:
Really, can say nothing as to that
a. present. We are now making an an
alysis of the affected parts, but it will
take some time to determine the re-
suit of our work. We shall not be able
to tell until next week at least. You
see, it takes some time to develop the
culture media"

On Board the Funeral Train, clean,
N. Y, Sept. 16-The funeral train
bearing the body of the late President
Mckinley started on its Journey to the
national capital at 1874 o'clock this
morning. Only the engines and the
observation car were shrouded in black.
The other cars were unadorned.
Behind the drawn blinds were Mrs.
Mckinley, President Roosevelt, the
cabinet and other high dignltaries of
the government. The casket of the
President, completely covered by a
beautiful silk flag, lay on raised bier
in the observation car. Two sheaves of
wheat were crossed above the breast.
A white dove with outstretched wings
seemed to be rising from the head OF
the casket. 1t was part of an exquisite
floral piece in which red and white
buds pictured the American flag and
the French colors, a tribute from
Franco American society. Standing at
the foot of the casket was a soldier
of the United States army uniformed
and ACQUIRED, with gun at order arms.
At the head a sailor of the navy stood
at attention, cutlass at shoulder. The
lid of the casket was closed. Just off
from the apartment in a curtained
niche. Lieut.. Ebroule of the army and
Lieut.. Hamlin of the navy remained on
duty. while Col. Bingham was in gen.

Mlburn House. Buffalo, Sept. 16.-
The silent form of William Mckinley
was borne from this city in impressive
state this morning and taken on it's
last journey to the national capital.
Thousands upon thousands watched
the impressive procession moving to-
ward the depot. 1t was doubly impress
sive because of it's lack of gorgeous
ness and because of the fact that. fol-
lowing closely behind the pail covered
corpse of the dead President was the
successor to the title and the living
change in the country's history.
Mrs. Mckinley was not awakened
until after o'clock, when DIR. Rixey
went to the room with one of her at
tendants. She had not slept we'll des-
pite the fact that she is almost thor
oughly exhausted and that DR.. Rixey
had given her a sleeping portion. The
first thing she asked was a repetition
of the query of the last two days:
when can / see the Maori
DR.. Rixey told her that they were GO
inc n Lot % IL,
she then let her attendants dress her,
and at 7:45 o'clock was ready for her
light breakfast, which she took in her
room alone.
At 7:3O o'clock the baggage was ready
and two truck loads of it moved to the
depot. In one wagon was a hospital
bed. and it was thought that this was
for use of Mrs. Mckinley. in view of
the certainty OF the fatigue of the
journey and the possibility of a col
lapse.
The Stricken MOurners.
At 1875 o'clock several figures step
ped silently out upon the porch and
walked down towards the carriages.
Mrs. William Mckinley robed in garbs
of mourning and supported by Abner
Mckinley on one side and DR.. Rixey
on the other. was the central figure
To the surprise of all she walked brisk
ly with her head quite erect, her face
hidden behind her long black veil. She
got into the carriage with her favorite
niece. Miss Barber, Abner Mckinley
and DR.. Rixey, and they were driven
at once to the depot. So far as could
be seen, she sat erect and unsupported
in the carriage.
The family of Abner Mckinley, other
relatives of the dead President and
Secretary Cortelyou followed in car
riages, and the Milburn house. famous
now because of it's connection with a
great national tragedy, went back into
the possession of its owner, who had so
kindly given it up to the use of the
President and his family.
President Follows COrtege.
President Roosevelt did not arise un-
til o'clock. He dressed quickly, and
at 7:SO was ready for breakfast. He
breakfasted with the family of his
host, Ansley WILCOX Just after 8
o'clock had struck, together with Mr..
Wilcox and his secretary, William
Loeb, Jr., he got into a carriage and
drove to the train. A few mounted po-
lice followed the carriage and three
or four detectives and secret service
men were near by. Otherwise there
was nothing to distinguish the Presi-
