BELIEVE DE PREND's STORY
Officers at Westlawn Cemetery Say
Attack Was Made.

Attack Was Made.
Canton. o., Oct. 1.-The officers and
mon of Company c. of the Fourteenth
United States infantry. on duty at
Westlawn cemetery, guarding the rest
ing place of President Mckinley,
worked diligently yesterday Investigate
ing the strange story in which Private
DePrend, who was on duty at the top
of the vaul Sunday night, figured so
prominently. All the commissioned Of
fcers and the members of the company
in general accepted fully the story, re-
lated by Private DePrend Sunday
night. and really believe the prowlers
were about the vault with no good
purpose. Yesterday only one of the
commissioned officers adhered to the
belief that an attempt had been made
upon the sentinel for ghoulish pur-
poses. He said 1T was the real thing.
II was prompted by the pure cussed-
ness OF some people. who thought to
bring reproach upon the nation by do
ing damage TO the resting place OF the
dead president"
Outside belief is that the sentinel
was overwrought by the loneliness OF
his position. that his nerves were over
taxed and that imagination contributed
some of the details related in good
faith. The post was regarded by all as
particularly isolated and depressing tc
the man guarding it at night, and 1t is
understood that more sentinels will be
stationed at the point in the future.
