Queen victoria's life was attempted
three times.
Two efforts were made to kill the

Napoleon III frequently was shot at

The King of Prussia twice was fired

King Victor Emmanuel of Italy mar

King Ferdinand Of Naples was stab

Queen Isabella of Spain was attack

The Queen of Greece was shot by a

Abraham Lincoln, President of the

One attempt on the life of the Ger

King Alfonso of Spain was shot at

Alexander II of Russia was assassi-

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.

The overshadowing event of the

of President Mckinley at Buffalo on
Friday afternoon. Stocks were natu-
rally the most violently affected, the
market going almost into a panic on
Saturday. prices slumping an average
of some five points with nearly 100000
shares sold in the two hours. Even this
is better than many had feared, but it
must be remembered that there are
strong grounds for hoping that tbs
President may happily recover from his
injuries, and also that the public was
too much absorbed by feelings of in
dignation and dismay over the bastard
ly outrage to allow the market to feel
the full force of the far-reaching ef
fects of such a calamity. Certainly the
uptimely death of the nations chief
executive, could hardly fail to exert
far more demoralizing influence than
that expressed in Saturdays moderate
furry. Saturdays bank statement was
again unfavorable, showing a loss of

surplus reserves The outlook does not

cation over favorable bulletins from the
wounded President.
Cotton broke sharply in the bureau
report which appeared Monday. and
gave the condition as Il 4. By Tuesday,
January had fallen to Z .63c, a loss of IS
points. A rally to 7.S4 followed on
Thursdays, but the market turned a
little weaker again, and closed at 7.T2e.
Crop reports continue to get worse, more
especially from Texas, where they are
stnsationally bad Furthermore, the
bureau report by no means justifies
such a bearish Interpretation as indi-
Gated by the weakness of the market,
for the obvious reason that it gave the
condition only up to Aug. "a, against
the date of Sept. l, last year. Probably
the crop fell off as much during the
last week of August as il did all the
rest of the month put together; and
if ia was correct on Aug. 24s about
61.4 would be nearly correct now, that
is two weeks later.
A year ago this review estimated the
crop at 10,250,000 to 10, SOC, 900 bales, and
never varied from those figures. the re-
suit is just about midway between the
two extremes. 1t is difficult to estimate
this years thus early, owing to its
backwardness, but it may at least be
said that the present prospect is for

Celebrated similar Cases.

Mr.. McKinley's abdominal wound is
nearly in the same spot as the cele-
brated wound received by Alexis st.
Martin. The bullet entered Mr.. Nc
Kinley's body FIVE inches below the left
nipple and one and a half inches to
the left Of the median line 1t went
clean through the stomach.
st. Martin was shot with musket in
1922 at Michili Mackinac. Mich. The
gun was discharged within a yard of
his body, and the whole charge enter
ed his stomach, carrying with it parts
of his clothing and fracturing two ribs
and lacerating the stomach. At that
time antiseptic treatment of surgical
cases was unknown. and II was thought
st. Martin would die.
DR.. William Beaumont took charge
OF the case and in year had restored
st. Martin TO perfect healt. The wound
never closed. II healed at the edges,
but left an opening about two and a
half inches in diameter. Through
this opening the action OF the gastric

other means or force likely to produce
death. is guilty of assault in
the first degree
Section go of the penal code describes
the penalty as follows:
Assault in the first degree is punish
able by Imprisonment for a term not
exceeding ten years.
The assassination of Presidents Lin
coin and Garfield occurred in the Dis
trict of Columbia. For their crimes the
assassins were punishable under the
laws of the District of Columbia or the
United States laws.
An act of Congress prescribing a
penalty for offenses against the person
OF the President or other United States
officials would, according to legal au-
thorities. take precedence over the
penal code of the state of New York in
the case of the man who made the at
tempt on President McKinley's life. A
search of the United States statutes
since 1873 does not show that any such
enactment has been made by Congress.
1t would not be possible to inflict any
greater punishment on the Anarchist
Nieman by any act of the Legislature
fixing more severe penalty for an at
tempt on the life of the President.
The death of President Mckinley
would result in the trial of Nieman for
homicide, and his conviction would
mean death in the electric chair.

Colonel Roosevelt.


Succession to the presidency CT the
United States in case of the death of
both President and Vice President is
settled by law.
This was provided for Jan. 10. 1886,
soon after the death of Vice President

would have been obliged TO decide who
should become chief executive should
the President and Vice President both
become incapacitated. The main fea-
lures of the law of the presidential sue
cession are as follows:
In case of removal, death, resigna-
ton OF inability of both the President

States cabinet officers are in the line
Of succession in the following order:

In this order they are to succeed and
act as President until the disability OF

moved or a president shall be elected.
The law provides that when one Of
the cabinet officers succeeds to the
presidency in the order named he shall
call a special session Of Congress.
