Buffalo. n. Y, Sept Six years,
lacking one day, after William Nc
Kinley was shot by a cowardly anarch-
istic assassin at the Pan-American eX-
position grounds in this city. iniiieting
wounds which caused the death of the
president ON September a. 1901, a
great monument typifying the love OF
the people of Buffalo WAS dedicated in
Niagara square today. The beautiful
white marble shaft was planned and
executed under the direction of a com
mission of prominent men at cost
of S150.000, furnished by this munic-
ipality and the state of New York. I'm
pressive ceremonies marked the dedi-
cation. the speakers including Gov
ernor Hughes, ex-President Cleveland
and others of national fame. The
exercises formed the central feature OF
Buffalo's Old home week and We're
witnessed by thousands of people from
all over the country.
The obelisk is of pure white marble,
eighty-slx feet in height. with a base
OF six feet and tapering gradually To
the top. 1t rests upon a great pedestal
on two sides of which are inscribed
the record of William Mckinley as
statesman and soldier. On the north
side is the following:
WILLIAM M'KINLEY,
Died in Buffalo, September
IA, 1901. the victim of
treacherous assassin, who shot
the President as he was eX-
tending to him the hand of
friendship.
Facing east. west. north and south
from the angles of the pedestal are
four sleeping lions in marble OF he
roic size, the work of Phinister Proc
tor, the New York sculptor
Flanking the sides of the four bases
which support the marble lions are a
series of fountains. which are fed from
water from gargoyles located close to
the four corners of the pedestal OF
the obelisk. Surrounding the whole is
a broad circular promenade, with mo
sale floor and embellished with bal
ustrades and massive balusters con
nected with heavy chains. The ap-
proaches are flights of stone steps |
which pierce the parapet ut four
points. Beyond the parapet leading
to the street level are concrete walks. |
between which are grassy plots and |
flower beds. The effect of the whole
lit the opinion of artistic authorities. |
is the most beautiful of any similar
memorial in America.
= The monument commission in |
charge of the erection of the shaft |
was composed of Edward H. Butler |
and George E. Matthews, of Buffalo; |
L. A. Curtis of Fredonia and John G. |
Milburn of New York. in whose Buffalo |
house President Mckinley died. Mr..
Milburn was president of the Inflated |
Pan-American Exposition company.
The fund for the erection of the |
monument was not given directly by |
the New York Legislature but was |
saved from the state appropriation for |
the Pan-American exposition, through |
the economical administration of the |
late Daniel Newton Lockwood, a for |
mer law partner Of Grover Cleveland. |
AT the close of the fair the money |
he had received by act of the legisla- |
ture, instead of being turned back into |
the state treasury, was diverted to the |
erection of the monument which was |
dedicated today, the city giving the |
site, establishing the surroundings and |
agreeing to maintain the statue.

SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CONCERT

New Composition by Mir. Haesche Is
 We'll Received by Large Audience.
 Yesterday afternoon the fourth of the seasons series of concerts by the New Haven symphony orchestra was given < in Woolsey hall Additional testimony was given by the presence of a large audience that the people must have their symphony concerts in spite of all sorts of weather which was about the kind that was abroad yesterday after noon. It was the kind that some one has called "Woolsey hall weather" It is rather singular fact that so many events in Woolsey hall have met with { rain, hail, snow or gales But the law of chances long spell of fair weather must come soon for the musical man. agers.
 There was about the concert yester- day certain bigness which dis guished it from all of its predecessors This was not particularly in the sage of the compositions played but rather in the way they were played.
 The members of the orchestra seem- ed to enjoy the concert and the result was gooda little too much of a sus- tained forte, perhaps, but always full blooded and vigorous The program was a varied one, beginning with the bold and militant Schuman symphony in c major, and ending with Wagner's Faust Overture Between these two bulwarks of the classics were three of the most strictly modern compositions --the Fourth Saint-Saens piano concer- to, played by MT. stojowski; new composition by William Edwin Haesche, a member of the department flo music faculty entitled "The South" a symphonic poem, and an orchestral sketch by Sir Edward Elgar, 'Dream Children"
 MT. Haesche's composition, which the composer conducted, was very warmly received by the audience. The piece is undoubtedly the best of the orchestral writings this talented young New Ha- ven musician has yet produced and shows since his last piece was per formed long upward step in the tech nic of his art "The South,' which ac- cording to the program, was inspired by poem of the same name written by Emma Lazarus, has many things to recommend it. It is tuneful and its melodies are original and are treated originally. There is no great departure in it from accepted methods and nc new paths have been cut by MT Haesche, but he has given in "The X South" a certain grace and force which is characteristic of all his writings The composition is admirably con structed, which speaks we'll for the completeness of the instructions in the department of music. It was set against a background of great compositions but held its own with the best. MT < Haesche is to be congra tulated on this new opus.
 Sigsmund Stejowski was the soloist of the afternoon and played the Saint Saens piano concerto No. A. MT Sto- iowsxi is at the head of the piano de- partment in the Damrosch school ot music in New York and was brought from Russia a year ago for. the place on account of his solid muslcianly qualities, as we'll as for his piano play ing. His performance of the concerto was 1nasterly. For an encore he play ed sPaderewsli's Legend
 The last concert of this series will be Tuesday afternoon, March 19.
