York May Attend the Funeral.

LONDON, Sept 15-It is learned by the
Associated Press that King Edward is con-
sidering the advisability OF the Duke of
Cornwall and York attending the funeral
of President Mckinley. The uncertainty
which exists here as to the date of the
ceremony and the lack of knowledge of the
attitude of President Roosevelt and others
toward such a visit have prevented any
thing definite being decided upon. The For
elgn Office heartily indorseS the suggestion
subject to the approval of the United
States Cabinet and the consent of King
Edward, who, under the circumstances, is
obviously the most concerned. 1t is said
that ii IL is decided to be advisable for the
Duke OF York TO attend the funeral the
Canadians will doubtless gladly put up
with the disarrangement of their pro-
gIamme consequent upon such mo-
mentous diversion OF the royal tour. AS
regards this suggestion and other official
details connected with Great Britain 3
efforts TO honor the dead President, great
uncertainty prevails owing TO the Marquis
OF LansdoWne, the foreign secretary, being
In a sequestered spot in Ireland, King Ed
ward being IN Denmark and the Cabinet
being scattered over the United Kingdom.
The Sunday Special, presenting the ques-
ton of the attendance of the Duke and
Duchess of Cornwall and York at the
funeral of President Mckinley, SAYS:
In view of the deep concern the King
has manifested from the moment the Pres
ident was shot, there can be no doubt that
the attendance of the Duke and Duchess
of Cornwall and York would be received
with warm gratitude by the United States
and despite questions of etiquette, the King
may well feel that such an opportunity of
strengthening the good relations of the
two great EnSlish-speaking peoples should
not lightly be put aside"

1.-The death OF President Mckinley will
have a greater reVerberation throughout
Europe than had the disappearance of Gar
field, Lincoln or Carnot He played a big
ger part on the worlds stage than any OF
his predecessors. Bolder than they, he
threw down the gauntlet to one Of the ma
tiOns of the old world and inaugurated, at
the expense Of Spain, a policy Of expansion
and conquest. He installed himself in the
Philippines; Joined unlimited in the Euro
pean concert in China, and finally took up
a determined and very American attitude
upon the pan-American question. Now this
great perturber of our quietude reposes in
his tomb. Will his imperialist policy dis
appear with him? Logically Mr.. Roosevelt
is heir to the views and ambitions of Nc
kinley, and hence nothing Will be changed
in the United States. So much the worse

who undoubtedly will continue, especially
in the relations with France, the traditions

man who better responds to the ideal of
his countrymen. He has been long pre-
pared for the supreme rank and he Will oc-
cupy this high station with ease and sue

and will know how to use this strength.

AN UNTIRING OFFICIAL
SECRETARY CORTELYOU'S PRAISE
WORTHY DEVOTION TO DUTY.
Displayed Iron Endurance Through
ceded the Presidents Death.

BUFFALO, n. Y, Sept 1.-THE devotion
to duty of Secretary George B. Cortelyou
during the long painful days that came be-
tween the shooting and the death of Presi-
dent Mckinley offers one of the most strik
ing features of the historic tragedy. When
the chief fell wounded Secretary Cortelyou
was practically forced to fill part of the
vacant place and assume all of its respon-
sibilities. He was at the Presidents side
when Leon CZolgOcZ fired the murderous
shots. and upon him rested the immediate
responsibility of issuing the order for the
surgical operation that was performed at
the Emergency Hospital When Mr.. Nc
Kinley came from the operating table it fell
to Mr. Cortelyou to make the arrangements
for his shelter and care, and from that
time to the end he was called upon to pass
judgment upon every grave question that
arose except the technical medical and
surgical matters in connection with the
care of the wounded chieftain. He stood
between the sickroom and the world as
far as information on the progress on the
case concerned. and the place called
for the most delicate judgment.
In addition to the official connection with
the dying President it was was his duty to
supervise all of the private personal af-
position kept him on his feet for three
days after the President was shot and
from then to the last the rest he got he
took in brief periods OF rarely over two
hours duration.
In addition TO the work which he could
do by verbal direction the executive CORE
spondence by mail and wire trebled. III eX-
ceeded that OF any other period in the
public life of Mr.. Mckinley, including the
days that succeeded both his first and sec
ond elections. 1t seemed that Mr.. Cortel-
you must fail in the mere physical task Of
handling II, but no physical eXactiOn
seemed too great for him. Newspaper men
who watched and waited with him were
driven bT sheer exhaustion TO seek refresh
ment but he went on with iron endurance
that never failed. Fatigue did not impair
his clear judgment or alter the perfect
poise of his personal bearing. lie was ever
calm and ever courteous to the hundreds
OF persons with whom ne came in contact.
His personal affection for his chief was
complete. and the Presidents death was a
grieVOus shock 10 him. He has not faltered.
however and still stands in the place that
he must occupy until the last offices have
been performed at the grave Of Mr.. Nc
