AT THE MILBURN HOUSE.
Many Went to view the Place Where
the Dead President Lay.

the DPuu IfesiuthA A"s'
Milburn House, Buffalo, Sept. IL
Absolute quiet prevailed in the neigh
horhood of the Milburn residence
through the early hours of the day.
The police maintained the lines on
Delaware avenue and the streets
which intersect it, and double picket
lines patroled by Fourteenth infan-
trymen protected the house from any
intrusion. Many persons came to the
outer police lines and gazed in silence
nj the house where the body OF the
dead president reposes. Some talked
i'm awed whispers of the cruel tragedy
! that had taken the nations ruler, ana
among all the deepest sorrow was
manifest. Pathetic figures in the
crowd were scores of old Grand Army
men, who grieve at the loss of a COM
rade. Their bitterness at the crime
seems melted in regret. Many of them
pleaded with the police for admission
to the lines, declaring that 1t was
their right and privilege to guard the
body of the man who had fought III
their ranks and was their comrade
soIicitudc for Mrs. Mckinley.
None who came to show their sor'
row for the dead president failed tc
ask solicitously for Mrs. Mckinley. It
was known that she was not strong
physically, and there was grave feal
for the consequences of the suffering
and shock she had experienced. The
first word of encouragement can't
from the servants of the household
who said she was still in her room
and had apparently rested well, Thl
report was amply confirmed at S;4
o'clock by DR.. Wasdin, who hat
called at the house to see her lie SAT-
chat she had not only rested fairl.
well, but was showing encouraging
strength in her grief, His assurance
/ were welcomed by those who hear
them.

An Impressive scene

on the lawn and stated to the press
representatives that it was the desire
of the president that they be ADMIT

men. representing the principal papers
of tbe country, walked noiselessly
into the dusky library of the oId
home. where, with bowed heads stood
the members of the cabinet and those
who had been asked to be present
The room was as silent as the house
of death itself.
The president stood on the south
side of the room with his back to a
small window, and the members OF
+he cabinet and the gentleman pres
emf stood in a circle facing him. For
some time Mr.. Roosevelt talked III
whispers with Secretary Root, his arm
over the secrctary's shoulder. Then
Secretary Root stepped back few
paces and the president stood notion
less by the side of Judge Hazel. There
was dead silence of several seconds
and then Secretary Root said:
"Nlr. Vice-President'-and after
