formed Of his visit, and that he intended
personally to convey condolences over
the loss sustained by the American peo-
pie. He then departed.
1he doctor says there is absolutely no
danger for ambassador Porter, who only
needs rest to insure his complete recov-
'ery within a few days. In fact, but for
the shooting of President Mckinley, Gen.

planned.
MESSAGE FROM LOUBET.
President Loubet sent the following
message to Mrs. Mckinley:
l learn with deep pain that his Excel
|lency, Mr.. Mckinley, has succumbed to
the deplorable attempt on his life. l sym
|pathize with you with all my heart In
|the calamity which bereaves the Ameri-
lean nation. so justly beloved and re-
'spected. EMIL LOUBET.
The premier, NJ. Waldeck- Rousseau,
called at the residence of the United
States embassy. The registers at the
United States embassy and at Embassa
dor Porter's residence are quickly filling
with the names of American residents
land visitors and with those of notable
|Frcnchmen. Paris is crowded with Amer
|cans at the present time, and the boule-
wards are dotted with little groups read
ling and discussing the details of the
,pl esdent's last moments Numbers of
Americans are already wearing black
ties. and many ladies have donned
mourning.
The expressions of sympathy from
IFrenchmen are as general and sincere as
when the cables announced the attempt
ion the presidents life. The death of Mr.
Nc hinley, it is understood, will not in
|terfere with the general programme oi
THE Cars visit to France. The reviews
|maneuvers, and receptions will be held
but the festivities will be subdued to a
great extent. All the papers print arti.
|cles deploring the death of President Nc
|kinley and biographies of the late pres
|ident and President Roosevelt. The
Temps refers to the responsibility of the
doctors in giving President Mckinley toe
nutritious food. 1t says:
ITO the legitimate sorrow, to the
|mourning of the entire nation, mingles a
'gnawing doubt regarding the treatment
land skill of the doctors"
Abiding to President Roosevelt, the
Temps says: What perspectives, what
IA touch of the magic wand, and what
troubling sentiments must occu-
py his mind!
Another article in the Temps says:
The anarchist Czolgosz battered him
self with a vain hope If he thought that
by u revolver shot he could root up the
famous golden cross ON which Bryan
wished to prevent humanity from being
crucified. The Buffalo murder, there
fore, was perfectly useless, even from the
point of view of anarchists themselves.
Political murder is always formidable to

The Journal des Debats says:
Never did the friendly expressions of
the two sister republics appear more
Justified than at the present moment,
when there is only room for a sentiment
of profound cordiality.
