IN MEMORY OF MCKINLEY.
The Shaft To Martyr-President I'm
yelled In Drenching Rain.

Buffalo, N. Y. Especially In a
heavy downpour of rain and before
vast multitude, the Mckinley
monument on Niagara Square was
dedicated this afternoon and formal
ly turned over to the State of New
York through Gov. Charles E..
Hughes.
Great anxiety was caused by an
archist circulars recently distributed,
threatening to kill Governor Hughes
as President Mckinley had been
killed.
There was no intimation that
there would be slaughter of all
who took part in the ceremonies.
These circulars were printed. They
were handed to the authorities yes
terday by the recipients. All of the
city officials were, therefore, keenly
alert.
Four Pinkerton detectives guard
ed the Governor closely all day and
city detectives practically surround
ed his carriage all along the line Of
march. Ne one at all suspicious was
allowed to approach it. No attempt
was made and the police breathed
easier when the exercises were over.
The Governor was not informed
of the matter, and every effort was
made to keep it from the public.
The ceremonies were brief, but
none the less impressive. Assembled
on the stand near the monument
with Governor Hughes were men
prominent in the State and nation,
and also from the Dominion of Can
ada. Back of the speakers platform
was grandstand filled with business
and professional men of Buffalo, and
Western New York, with their wives
and daughters. Another large body,
consisting of the Grand Army Veter-
ans, who always hailed President Nc
Kinley as "Comrade," formed in a
circle in front of the speakers stand,
and on the steps of the monument.
Interspersed with them in striking
contrast to their plain blue uniforms
and battle flags were the scarlet
coated Canadian troopers.
But by far the mightiest part of
the assemblage was the multitude
which banked Niagara Square and
the approaching streets as far as
the eye could see. Tops of houses
and the roofs of nearby skyscrapers
in the business section were used as
vantage points from which to view
the monument and it's surroundings.
1t was before just such crowd that
President Mckinley. six years ago.
delivered his last memorable address,
which breathed spirit of amity for
the Nations of the Western Henri
sphere, and spoke for an extension
of Pan-Americanism in its broadcast
sense.

train was about to pass the freight
locomotives the trucks of the former
left the track and the moving engine
crashed into the engine of the freight,
wrecking both locomotive and tele-
scoping the baggage and the mail

CARTER WOMAN ACQUITTED
Bank TelIer's Friend May Also Get
$7,40O Reward.

New York Especially Mrs. Laura
NJ. Carter, who has been on trial for
a week on a charge of receiving
stolen money, was acquitted by the
jury. She was accused of having
received from Chester B. Runyan,
the .defaulting teller of the Windsor
Trust Company, $1,000 of the $780,
600 he stole from the bank.
One of the jurors said after the
verdict had been returned that the
jurors agreed that the testimony of
Runyan, who was the principal wit
ness against Mrs Carter, be entire
ly ignored on the ground that Run
yam was a self-confessed thief.
Runyan testified that he first met
Mrs. Carter in the street and that
he arranged with her to conceal him.
This was before his sensational de-
parture from the bank with $4,000
in bills concealed in his suit case.
He testified that he told her he was
short in his accounts.
After taking all his money in his
custody, he testified, he went to live
in a fat with Mrs. Carter in Harlem.
He said he gave her $4,000 at once
and that a day of two later she de-
manded $4,000 more, saying that If
she did not get it she would betray
him. This sum, he said, he also
gave her.
Mrs. Carter admitted getting $5,-
900, but said that as soon as she
knew it had been stolen she returned
1t to him and then betrayed him to
the police. She denied absolutely
that she demanded or received the
additional $4,000, as Runyan tes-
titled.
Immediately after the verdict Mrs.
Carter was released from custody.
She said she had not decided wheth-
err she would demand the reward
offered for Runyan's capture, which
amounted to $7,400.

sTATEMET FROM WASHINGTON.
Secretary MetcaIf Says Admiral Davf
 Did Not Act Wrong

Secretary MetcaIf Says Admiral Davis
 Did Not Act Wrong.
 Washington. Jan. 24-President Roosevelt tonight received a cablegram from the Most Reverend Dr. Enos Nut tall, Lord Archbishop of the West h. dies, and Chairman of the Kingston Re- lief Committee, rendering his thanks for the prompt visit of the American warships under Rear Admiral Davis. The message is as follows:
 We all appreciate deeply the Ameri- can sympathy In our distress and the prompt visit of your men of war for our succor. Happily the supply of food available for the Relief Committee Is sufficient. After meeting the cost of this. our next want will be the means for making small houses habitable. Our people are behaving splendidly"
 The receipt in this city today of the full text of the correspondence between Rear Admiral Davis and Governor Swettenham of Jamaica, which did not differ from the telegrams transmit ted by the Associated Press last Sum day night, caused the naval officials to again study the situation 10 sec If Ad- miral Davis had in any way transgress- ed the bounds of propriety on his visit to Kingston.
 They not only found a precedent for his landing men from his ships to pre- serve order, strangely enough in the case of another British Island, in the West Indies. but also saw nothing in the whole affair to warrant the letter addressed to him by Governor Swet- tenham.
 Secretary Metcalf late this afternoon gave out the following statement bear ing on the subjects
 "The department has secured the full text of the correspondence between Rear Admiral Davis. commanding the squadron of naval vessels which visi- ted Kingston. Jamaica, after the earth

 Tn view of the governors action in refusing American assistance and tents. the disposition Of the latest con signments is uncertain"
 dispatch to The Londor Times from Kingston,s says:
 Co .ernor Swettenhants action is denriving thousands of women and children of adequate food and shelter. Prominent English officials clergymen and judges join in condcmning the governors course,'
 It is also considered significant that the chief organ of the present govern ment The London Tribune, Is in- censed because Governor Swettenham refused its offer of relief and supplies from English merchants.
 dispatch to The Evening Standard from Kingston, dated yesterday, says:
 The correspondence between Cover nor Swettenham and Rear Admiral Da- wis, published this morning has inten- sihed the strong public feeling against the governor. Although the admiral was precipitate in landing marines 1t Is recognized that he did so with the best of motives and every one except the governor appreciated his kindly action.
 The keenest ire of the merchants here has been ar0rsed by the passage between in the governors letter stat ing that they would be glad of the free help of the marines in cleaning their ! stores"
