DEATH OF M'KINLEY
DIR. MANN SAYS THE SPECIFIC
CAUSE THEREFOR IS UN-
KNOWN TO HIM
MEDICAL SOCIETY MEETING
Doctors Who Attended the Late
President Make Report of Case
to Gathering of Ply
sicians.

NEW YORK, Oct. 15-The physicians
ana surgeons who attended President &c
klnley through the closing days of his
lie today presented to the State Medical
society, gathered here in semi-annuaI ses
sion, lengthy report covering the medi-
cal and surgical history of the case of
the martyred statesman 1t was signed
by Drs. Matthew D. Mann Herman
Mynter, Eugene Wasdin, Charles G.
Stockton, P. NJ. Rixey, Roswell Park and
CHARLES McBurney, and was read by Dr.
Mann, who discussed the features as he
proceeded. No reporter was present, but
general summary of it was given out
by one of the physicians He described
the presidents symptoms and treatment
from day to day, going into the fullest
details
In speaking of the bulletins issued. DR..
Mann said that every one of them was
absolutely true. None had been mislead-
Ing in any manner He told of the prog
fess OF the patient from day to day
TIL the unfavorable turn very sudden
one, of the seventh day, and he said
ne maintained that to show that the bull
letlns issued We're true and not mislead-
ing.
DR.. Mann said that there was absolutely
no archaeological infection. Continuing
he said:
If you ask me what caused the presi-
dents death, could not tell you I doubt
if that will ever be discovered. Amongst
eontrlbutory causes, however, were the
presidents age, his lack of exercise and
his naturally weak heart which made
his pulse high"
DR.. Mann was asked by one of the
listening medical men why the X-ray was
not applied SO the missing bullet might
be located. DR., Mann replied that there
was nothing in the condition of the
patient to show that the bullet was doing
any harm and he said that if the X-ray
had been used, it would only have been
to satisfy the curiosity of the physicians
and the excitement attending the opera
ton would have been harmful to the
patient, so the doctors refrained from
using the apparatus.
Dr. Mann went on to say that at no
time whatever had there been the slight
est disagreement among the physicians
He said that complete harmony marked
every bit of time that they were in at
tendance on the president He said he
had never known of such complete har-
many among physicians in attendance
upon single patient.
DR.. Mann did not say anything of the
autopsy, but he described the technical
treatment of the president daily
DR. Herman Mynter, a colleague of Dr.
Mann in the presidents case corrobor-
ated all DR.. Mann said He spoke of
the fine traits of the president and of
the remarkable exhibition of patience Mr.
Mckinley had displayed. Dr. Mynter
spoke very feelingly of the Christian
charity of President Mckinley toward his
assassin and said that the presidents
manner of bearing his trials was SO i'm
pressive that there was not one of the
nurses who would not have gladly taken
his place.

full address Of welcome, offering the hog
pitality of the town to the delegates
Eloquent, diplomatic and wisely general
was the address of Mrs. Williams. the
federation's president.
For the club women of Minnesota
said the speaker, "Owatonna would
henceforth be changed from a dot on the
map to a city, the home of sympathetic
sisters and strong workers, The answers
to the following queries sent out to the
vice presidents of the different dis
tricts, What Is the greatest need in
your district and how would you meet
lt?'' had invariably been reciprocity and
club intercourse" To meet this need
guest days, federation days and district
meeting were the remedies suggested.
Self absorption, exclusiveness and isoIa-
ton in club life will wear al rut so deep
that we cannot get a glimpse of the rich
harvest fields on either hand when other
reapers are garnishing truths with pos
sloly improved methods and the latest
devised machinery" Mrs Williams
stated that ifty-four clubs had been add
ed during the year to the federation
roster There were nine prospective
clubs to encourage the advent of the
new year. There was a gain of 40 per
ooiDI Ill elupS ana Inc membership had
grown from 1900 to over 5000, or a gain
of so per cent.
In reviewing the work of the federation
Mrs. Williams considered it under the
heads of education, politics, free libraries
music and organization and the sex cues
ton. In regard to the latter the Speaker
said:
The next issue involves the sex ques-
tlon-the admission of mixed clubs and
clubs of men and women into one organi-
cation
Two mixed clubs were admitted in the
early history of federation, but the
records do not show that any action was
taken by board or federation. This

Makes Claim of Foul In Fight with
Carter.


SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 15.-The Car
ter-Walcott contest tonight before the
National Athletic club was a fiasco, and
terminated suddenly in the seventh
round. Walcott fell to his knees, after
a slight mix up, raising the cry of
foul" and claiming to have been struck
a blow below the belt.
Pandemonium reigned for few min
utes and police and spectators crowded
into the ring.
The club managers summoned their
physician DR.. Eidenmuller, at once and
the negro was examined in his corner.
The verdict was that no foul blow had
been struck.
Walcott was able to walk from the
ring unassisted and it seemed that he
was shamming. The blow that really did
the work was right uppercut to the
stomach. Up to this point Walcott had
much the better of the contest. Twice
he had the Brooklyn man going, once in
the fifth, and again in the sixth round,
but the latter's wonderful recuperative
powers saved him from defeat There
was much dissatisfaction over the re-
suit, the general belief being that the
Barbados man had laid down"
When Walcott dropped to the floor
Referee Wand counted ten and awarded
the fight to Carter. The prevailing odds
were 20 to IL, with Walcott on the long
end. Carter was cheered when he left
the ring.

KING EDWARD is SICK
ALARMING REPORTS CONCERNING
HIS MAJESTY
Eminent Throat Specialist Has
Gone to Berlin to Consult with
Physicians of Late EN-
peror Frederick.

NEW YORK, Oct. ia special cable
gram to the New York World from its
London correspondent says that alarming
reports respecting King Edwards phys
zeal condition continue to circulate IN
court circles where there are means of
obtaining accurate knowledge.
That these reports have some substan-
tial foundation is evidenced by the pro-
hibitive rates now demanded by insur-
ance companies on the kings life and
the heavy advance in premiums against
loss in connection with OUTLAWS for the
coronation.
The Norwich Union Insurance com
pany, of which Lord Rothschild is the
chairman, was the first to advance the
rates. The other companies quickly fol-
lowed suit, for it is known how close
the Rothschild family stands to royalty
and how exhaustive are it's sources of
information
The Worlds London bureau has had
inquiries made at Ballater, the nearest
village to Balmoral, where the king is
staying, and learns that something like
panic prevailed at Balmoral last week
because of the kings condition. Not
only was the late queens physician Sir
James Reid, summoned hurriedly from
his holiday in Perthshire, but two local
doctors were called to consult with Sir
o.
The bulletin announcing that he was
troubled with lumbago is regarded as
mere blind. That it was absurd was
shown three days later, when the king
went shooting in the woods, the very last
place a. rheumatic patient would be per-
mitted to ge.
Even the shooting expedition was a
feint as it simply consisted in his driv-
ing to a lodge in the woods, where he
lunched and returned early In the after
noon. The king was closely muffied UP
on this expedition.
He has aged greatly, presenting now an
extraordinary contrast to the queen,
whose preservation is so complete that
she might pass for his daughter.
Sir Felix Semon, throat specialist
who was summonded to Copenhagen
when the king was there, has been at
Ralmoral too He has just gone to Ber-
lin, 1t Is said, to consult Profs. Bergman
and Virchow, who attended Emperor
Frederick, who had died of cancer of the
throat.
The surgeons are still doubtful as to
whether the kings throat affection is
simply equity. He Is intensely anxious
himself, and this worry is wearing down
his constitution
The Daily Chronicle learns that syn
dictate of tradesmen and others, who
would lose largely in the event of the
coronation not occurring, have effect ed
insurance upon the life of King Edward
for year for a very large sum, at
I1oyds, at the high rate of ten guineas
per centum.

NEW YORK, Oct 15-According to a

my Honored Friend: write to In
I was captured by a great number of
armed men, some forty, as / Travelled
from Sansko to Diumaala, with twelve
teachers, students and others.
They took with me for my companion
Mrs Catherine Tsilka. The reason why
they captured US IS for ransom. The
price which they demand for US is 925,0G0,
Turkish. which sum must be paid In
gold. and this entirely without the knowl-
edge of the Turkish and Bulgarian gov
ernments within the term of eighteen
days from today.
1.-The condition of Mrs Tsilka decided
the limit, as she is to give birth to a
child in three months.
1--WE are pursued by Turkish army. I
beg DIR, Haskell himself to go to Con-
Stantlnople and exert himself for the pay
ment OF the ransom at Samakov, where
men will receive 1t on presenting an or
der from me. The men who captured us
at fIrst showed courtesy and consideration
toward US, but now, since Turkish SOL
diers and bashi-bazouks have begun to
pursue US and the ransom is delayed, our
condition is altogether changed.
Therefore, 1 beg you to hasten send
ing the ransom demanded and that as
theoretically as possible you will repre-
sent to the Turkish government that it
stop the pursuit of US by soldiers and
basht-bazouks, otherwise we shall be kill
ed bX the people in whose hands we are.
I pray you to communicate without de-
