PRESIDENT Will LIVE.

Ruff,Io n. Y. Sept. S.-Throushout
his cuiet Sabbath every word that
came from the Mlburn residence
where President Mckinley lies battling
for life. was reassuring and. tonight
chances of his recovery are greatly IN
creased.
The developments of last night ana
today were dreaded, but hour alter
hour passed and the distinguished pa
tient showed not an unfavorahic sym?-
tom.
Fiy. times during the day the doc
tors and surgeons assembled for con-
sultation and each time the verdict
was unanimous that what change had
occurred WAS for the better.
Not the slightest premonitory symp-
tom of peritonitis appeared and the
lresh hope. born with the morning.
grew stronger and stronger as the day
advanced. until toward evening the
confidence expressed in the President
recovery seemed almost too sanguine.
DR.. Charles McBurney the famous
New York surgeon. who had been sum
moncd in consultation. after a thor
curh examination in which he said he
had found not single unfavOrable
symptom. Joined in the last afternoon
bulletin which declared that the Pres
ident's condition was satisfactory to
all the Presidents physicians present.
|. ie not strange. therefore. that the
Vice President. the members Of the
cabinet and other visitors who called,
came away with lighter hearts.
The news spread over the Exposition
city with lightning rapidity and thou
sands came to learn for themselves of
the faith and confidence that cxiste |
about the Mlburn house.
When extra editions Of the news
papers containing the announcement
THE President will live" appeared Oh
the streets, the waiting crowds Only
suppressed shouts of thanksgiving out
of consideration for the patient.
And vet, despite all this optimism.
the President is by no means out Of
danger Not one of his physicians will
go so far as to say that. But if he
continues to improve for one more day
the danger of peritonitis. which i;
most dreaded. will have practically
disappeared.
Yesterday, one Of the doctors
thought AZ hours would be the limit
Of the danger from that source. but
his more conservative colleagues be-
lieve at least "a hours. possibly &C.
from this time must elapse before the
possibility of peritonitis shall have
vanished.
That disposed of. still other compli-
cations may arise. Blood poisoning
might set in or an abscess form where
the bullet is imbedded in the muscles
OF the back. Thus far the ball. which
is still in the body. gives the physi
clans no anxiety. But if the slightest
appears the ball will be
Immediately extracted. No difficulty is
Anticipated in this regard.

A NATIONS PRAYERS.

Washington, Sept. S.-'The cXigen-
cies of life are such that no man living
can count upon the continuance of ex-
istence for any length of time. Among
these eXigcncieS are disease. accident
and the bullet of the assassin, such as
we have heard of in the past 40 hours
That occurrence at Buffalo indicates
that no man is safe from the shafts of
death. 1t is very difficult to get away
from it. and while l have ever been
loyal to the law and have ever contend
ed for it's strict enforcement, | must
has almost converted me into an ad-
vocate of lynch law. Surely there was
no occasion, no reason for that dread
full deed and whether the work of a
sane man or a lunatic, there can be
justification for it.
The above extract from the sermon
Of nr. ii. K. Naylor. presiding elder OF
the Washington District, was the only
direct reference made in the regular
sermon preached. today. at the Metro
politan Methodist Episcopal church.
" Which is the church President Mckin-
Icy attends when in Washington.
The service was converted into a
gathering of sympathy. The prayers
were supplications for early recovery.
praise for his personality and admoni-
ton to Mrs. Mckinley to stani IL; N in
this trying time.
The congregation. W. III; WAS lirCc.
transformed itself into a mass meeting
and voted that the following expression
be sent to the President:
THE board of the Metropolitan
Methodist Episcopal chu; Oh and con-
gregation assembled extend 10 You and
your devoted wife tic deepest sy;npa-
thy and earnestly pray that Cod in hls
great mercy may comfort ana sustain
you and spare yOur valued an useful
life to the church and nation
When the meeting adjourned the
congregation gathered about the altar,
exchanging condolences. Mingled with
the general convc: sl,ion were remarks
in depreciation of DIR. MAYORS refer
cree to summary punishment.
IT was condemned by some as open
advocacy of lynch law. On the other
hand there were many who took occa-
sion to express to DR.. Naylor their
complete endorsement of his position.
He did not for moment seem disposed
to change his attitude. He said to
those with whom he spoke:
IF / had been there l would have
blown the scOundrel to atoms if had
a pistol.
DR.. Bristol. the pastor of the church,
is in London.
At the meeting Judge Anderson de-
precated any sentiment which would
seem to lend influence to the summary
and speedy punishment Of the author
of the attempt He was sure the law
would be vindicated and the national
sense of order and justice maintained
He felt. as did others. that if ever
crime had been committed which de-
served summary punishment this one
did. hut he still cOntended for order.
