Commander Eva soYth, of Salvation
Army, Sends Message Of condolence
to ReIatives--Was Personal Friend
Of Mrs. MckinIey-Deadt Presidents
Pallbearers to Act.

Canton, May 2s.-Long before the
home those who might desire to take
farewell view of the body of Mrs.
Mckinley, there had gathered in front
of the famous cottage crowd of beo-
pie made up of youth and old age.
From the public schools came children
in troops who, with blanched faces ana
in hurried whispers, waited their turn
for admission. Neighboring cities and
villages and the surrounding country
contributed to the list of those who
passed thru the residence.
Altho 1t is not intended that the fun
eral of Mrs. Mckinley shall take on
the form of "a ceremony of state, yet
the coming of the president and mem
bers of his cabinet, the vice president,
the governor of Ohio. and many other
people of note will make it such in a
degree at least. In accordance with
the wishes of Mrs. Barber, however,
the services will be made as simple as
possible.
The city council met last night made
arrangements for floral tribute to be
sent to the Mckinley home, spread ap-
propriate minutes on the record, de-
cided to attend the funeral and ad-
journed out of respect to the memory
of Mrs. Mckinley. The city board of
education did likewise. Business will
be suspended Wednesday afternoon.
and all county and city offices will
be closed.
Floral tributes in profusion from
friends in many states are arriving.
The flag on the Stark county court
house, where the body of President
Mckinley lay in state.e was today at
,half-m mast as mark of respect to Mrs.
Mckinley.
The honorary pall-bearers announced
are Judge Henry w. Harter, John c..
Dueber, Joseph NJ. Biechele, Robert A.
Cassidy. George 3. Frease, Austin
Lynch, r. S. Shields and Judge c.
Bow.
The first five were honorary pail
bears for President Mckinley. The last
thlse take the places of the other three
honorary bearers OF SMcKinley-Justi

funeral as a personal friend and
mourner OF Mrs. Mckinley; w. A.

that the Roosevelt administra-

hood issue, comes letter from
President Roosevelt to Governor
Kibbey, of Arizona, which states
that he will "take no further ac-
ton looking toward joint state
hood for the territories. The
letter has been made public. We
wonder if the jointureites will be-

Presidents own signature. Last
week some OF them made the
statement that the information
given out by Secretary Garfield
was false.
