ALL BOFFALOM0UIiNED Simple Obsequies Over President's Body at Milburn House. PATHETIC IN THE EXTREME Mrs. McKinley Bore Up Bravely Pres ident Roosevelt Looks Upon His Dead Chief Senator Hanna's Grief. The Remains at the City Hall. Buffalo, Sept. 16. Buffalo yesterday became a city of mourners. The gay and flaming decorations of the Pan American exposition gave way to the symbol of sorrow. The black drapery of the city's1 streets muffled the tolling bells of the churches. Bits of crepe appeared on every sleeve. The sorrow was everywhere apparent. In the morning a simple service took place at the residence on Delaware avenue where the martyred president died. A hymn was sung and prayer was offered over the dead body. That was all. Only the immediate family and the friends and political assistants of the late President were present. The scene there was pathetic in the extreme. Then the body was borne out to the waiting cortege on the brawny should ers of eight sailors and soldiers of the republic. The cortege passed through solid walls of living humanity, bare headed and grief stricken, to the city hall, where the body lay in state yes terday afternoon. There a remarkable demonstration occurred which proved how close the President waa to the hearts of the people. Arrangements had been made to allow the public to view the body from the time it ar rived, at about 1.30 o'clock until about 5 o'clock. But the people were wedged into the streets for blocks. Two lines were formed. They extended literally for miles. When 5 o'clock came 40,000 Every one rose and an eyes were turned toward the President. He moved forward again with the tide of the procession to his place at the head of the line of cabinet officers. He held himself erect, his left hand carrying his silk hat. Those who were coming toward him fell back on either side to let him pass. He paused once or twice to shake hands silently, but there was no smile to accompany his greetings. He, too, like the man deep down in his seat against the wall, who had forgotten to rise when the President of the United States entered, seemed to be restraining a great grief! When President Roosevelt reached the head of the line of cabinet officers he kept his face away from the casket. The infantryman guarding the dead stood before him rigid as a statue. Al though the commander-in-chief ap proached until he could haTe touched him, the soldier did not salute. Roosevelt Looks Upon the Dead Face. The President appeared to be steel ing himself for a look into the face of him whose death had made him the first ruler of the world. The ten sion in the room was great. Every one seemed to be waiting. The minis ter of the gospel stood with th Holy Book in his hand ready to begin. Per haps it might. have been 60 seconds. It seemed longer. Then the Presi- FROM BUFFALO TO WASHINGTON Funeral Train Bore President's Body to the Capital.

Washington, Sept. 17 Through a living lane of bare-headed people stretching from Buffalo up over the Alleghenies, down into the broad val ley of the Susquehanna and on to the marble city on the banks of the shin ing Potomac, the nation's martyred President yesterday made his last journey to the seat of the government over which he presided for four and one-half years.

This morning It 9 o'clock the body of President Mc Kinley will be removed from the White House to the Capitol where it will be in state until 6 o'clock this evening. This will constitute the official funeral. There will be an impressive procession, military and civil. The military escort will consist of marines and blue jack ets, artillery, cavalry and infantry of the regular army and the National Guard of the District of Columbia. In the civic procession will be the Presi dent, justices of the supreme court, the cabinet, diplomatic corps, senators, representatives, governors of states, commissioners of the District of Co lumbia, judges of the United States courts, and other dignitaries. The mar tyred President's body will lie in state until this evening, when the body will be sent to Canton by the 8 o'clock train over the Pennsylvania road. The President's remains reposed last night in the east room of the White House where for more than four years he had made his home as the chief magistrate of the great American re public. Upstairs his widow mourned for her dead in the family apartments that now bring back but the saddest of memories. It was with simple cere mony and a silence that nited perfectly the sadness of the occasion that the body of the late President was borne up Pennsylvania avenue to the White House and laid upon the bier in the great east room where he had stood so often in the pride of his manhood to receive the greetings of the common people he loved better than himself. 4etlBflilttmint-.h. . . - M KIM velt seemed to be swaying to and fro as if his footing were insecure. When the singing ended the clergy man read from the word of the 15th chapter of Corinthians I. Again the voices rose with the words of "Nearer, My God, to Thee," the very words President McKinley had repeated at The silence with which the countless thousands viewed the remains of their hero and martyr was oppressive and profound. Only the rumbling of the train wheels, the sobs from men and women with tear-stained faces and the doleful tolling of the church bells broke on the ear. At sev eral places, Williamsport, Harrisburg and Baltimore, the chimes olaved PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. people had already passed and the crowds waiting below in the streets seemed undiminished. It was decided to extend the time until midnight For hours longer the streets were dense with people and a constant stream flowed up the steps of the broad en trance into the hall and passed the bier. When the doors were closed at midnight it was estimated that 80,000 people had viewed the remains, but thousands of disappointed ones were still in the streets. It was just eight minutes before the opening of the service when a covered barouche drove up to the house, bring ing President Roosevelt and Mr. and Mrs. Wilcox, at whose home he Is a guest.

BURNED ASSASSIN IN EFFIGY Remarkable Demonstration In Chicago Undisturbed By a Policeman. Chicago, Sept. 17. An effigv design ed to represent Leon Czolgosz, the as sassin of the late President, was set on fire last night and hanged to an electric light pole at State and Madi son streets, one of the busiest cor ners in Chicago. A lirge crowd shouted approval of the demonstration. hissed their contempt for the assassin and demanded similar treatment for Emma Goldman. "That's the way we'll serve all these Anarchists," growled a man who stood in the crowd. "If they want to get along without any laws we can show them how it's done." LEY'S PAN-AMERICAN SPEECH Delivered at Buffalo on the Day Before He Was Shot. The speech delivered by President McKinley at Buffalo on Thursday, Sept. 5, the day before his attempted assassination, is regarded as one of the best public addresses which he ever made. He was introduced to the vast crowd of auditors which packed the esplanade of the exposition grounds by President Milburn, who said sim ply: "Ladies and gentlemen, the presi dent." When the cheering had subsided. President McKinley spoke as follows: President Milburn, Director General Buchanan. Commissioners, Ladles and Gentlemen I am glad to be again in the city of Buffalo and exchange greetings with her people, to whose generous hos pitality I am not a stranger and with whose good will I have been repeated ly and signally honored. Today I have additional satisfaction in meeting and giving welcome to the foreign repre sentatives assembled here, whose pres ence and participation in this exposi tion have contributed In so marked a degree to its interest and success.

Sen ator Hanna, who had risen, saw that the last opportunity to look into the countenance of his dead friend had come. Pressing forward, in an instant he was. at the side of the casket and bending over and looking down into it. Almost two minutes passed, and then he turned away and the coffin was closed.

Further familiar ity with the idea of Mr. Roosevelt as President is having its natural result In dissipating doubts entertained as to the effect of his succession upon the Mrs. McKinley stood the trip very bravely. In the morning, soon after leaving Buffalo, she pleaded so earnest ly to be allowed to go into the car where her dear one lay that reluctant assent was given, and she spent half an hour beside the coffin. The train had the right of way over everything. Not a wheel moved on the Pennsylva nia railroad system 30 minutes before the pilot engine was due, or for the same length of time after the train had passed. General Superintendent J. B. Hutchinson had sent out explicit instructions covering every detail.

Dead Chieftain On His Bier. In the drawing room to the right of the hall as President Roosevelt en tered, the dead chieftain was stretched upon his bier. His head was to the rising sun. On his face was written the story of the Christian forbearance with which he had met his martyrdom. Only the thinness of his face bore mute testimony to the patient suf fering he had endured. He was dressed as he always was in life. The black frock coat was buttoned across the breast where the first bullet of the as sassin had struck. The black string tie below the standing collar showed the little triangle of white shirt front. The right hand lay at his side. The left was across his body. He looked as millions of his countrymen have seen him, save for one thing. The little badge of the Loyal Legion, the only decoration he ever which was always In the left lapel of his coat was miss ing. And those who remarked It spoke of it, and after the body was taken to the city hall the little badge which he prized through life was placed again where it had always been. Mrs. McKinley Bore Ordeal Bravely. The family had taken leave of their loved one before the others arrived. Mrs. McKinley, the poor grief crushed widow, had been led into the chamber by her physician, Dr. Rixey, and had sat awhile alone with him who had supported and comforted her through all their years of wedded life. But though her support was gone she had not broken down. Dry eyed, she gazed upon him and fondled his face. She uia not seem to realize tnat he was dead. Then she was led away by Dr. Rixey and took up her position at the head of the stairs where she could hear the service. Mrs. Hobart, the widow of the vice president during Mr. McKinley's first term, Mrs. Lafay ette McWilliams, of Chicago, Miss Barber, Miss Mary Barber and Dr. Rixey remained with her there. Senator Hanna, who had fairly wor shipped his c".ead friend for years, en tered the room at this time but did not approach the casket. His face was set like an iron willed man who would not let down the barriers of Ms grief. The senator spoke to no one. His eyes were vacant. H passed through the throng and seated himself behind Governor Odell, sinking far down into his chair and resting his head upon his hand. During all the service that followed he did not stir. Just before 11 President Roosevelt entered, corning into the room from me rear through the library. After passing into the hall he had made his "way around through the sitting room behind into the library. There was an Instantaneous movement In the room a the President appeared. United States has obtained a President of great distinction of character. The I exposition of his policy Sunday is the 1 subject of general comment. i The Daily Graphic, which points out that the President of the United States occupies a more powerful position than any sovereign in Christendom, ( with the possible exceptions of the ' German emperor and the czar of Rus sia, sums up his policy as "that of a sane Imperialist devoted to tho ad vancement and glory of his country without wronging others." The Morning Post, in an editorial, says: "He is a personification of the younger generation of Americans who are looking forward rather than dreading of the past." The Daily Mail says: "The United States has a great man at their head. We may expect with confidence that Mr. Roosevelt will be a moderating and not an exasperating influence. Thousands of Persons at the Stations and Along the Railway Side. The progress of the train through the Keystone State was solemn and impressive. At Williamsport the toll ing bells, the muffled roll of drums and the chimes of Trinity Episcopal Church ringing out in subdued tones "Lead, Kindly Light," marked its en trance. During the five minutes' stop several beautiful floral pieces were handed aboard, among them being a massive bouquet of American Beauty roses forJVlrs. McKinley. Approaching Harrisburg, factory hands lined the tracks for miles. The rooftops of buildings were alive with people. Flags were half-masted and emblems of mourning were at every hand. Hundreds of men and women crowded the tops of freight cars. Within the station the people were banked in thousands, surging through all the approaching streets as far as V, the eye could reach. From a huge via duct spanning the track countless faces peered down into the car win dows. The tolling of the churc. bells could be heard, and as the train en tered the station the shrill notes of a bugle sounded taps. Despite the vigi lance of the guards, women pushed through to the train and pleaded at the Assassin's Father Heartbroken. Cleveland, O., Sept. 16. The father of the assassin of President McKinley windows for any trifle the cars might has not slept or eaten anything since Saturday morning. Since the death of the President he has become moody and has lost his appetite. A younger brother of the assassin says that his father is heartbroken as a con sequence of the death of the President. For a McKinley Memorial Arch. Chicago, Sept. 17. At an informal meeting of 100 prominent citizens of Chicago, held yesterday afternoon, a proposition to start a movement for the erection of a magnificent memorial arch for President McKinley at Wash ington was made. Witty Robert Barr. Robert Barr when asked for his fa vorite quotation responded with the following verse and its accompanying comment, says The Windsor Magazine: One who never turned his back, but marched breast forward; Never doubted clouds would break, Never dreamed, though right were worsted, wrong would triumph, Held we fall to rise, are baffled to fight better, Sleep to wake. Robert Browning. But Mr. Barr can never be serious in a letter, whatever he may be in his quotation. Tie has long been celebrated ' as one of the wittiest letter writters of the day. However short his note may be, it is long enough to afford him an opening for some little touch of the humoresque. In the present instance he writes: "The above is my favorite quotation. Whenever you want something helpful, you know, look up the writings of the talented R. B.'s Robert Burns, Robert Browning. Robert Buchanan, Robert Bruce or Robert Barr." SFor pleasant and comfortable to Miss Milliard. yield as a memento of the trip. Just as the train stopped a great choir, ranged tier on tier on the sta tion steps, began "Nearer, My God, to Thee," and then as the train pulled out the strains turned to "My Coun try, 'Tis of Thee." Printed slips were handed to the car windows, giving the lines of the two beautiful hymns, deep ly bordered in black. A remarkable spectacle was presented as the train moved across the long bridge spanning the Susquehanna from Harrisburg. On either side of the stream, up and down for miles, the banks teemed with le gions of people. From the"" brink of ithe stream they were in solid masses to the trees far in the back ground. On the bridge itself urchins had clam bored Into the tangle of steel at the sides of the roof. On the surface of the river, in a flotilla of rowboats and yachts, hundreds more looked up at the train of death. The Entrance Into Baltimore. Darkness reigned as the train drew jinto Baltimore. Nearing the station, jthe locomotive literally plowed its way among flowers, for great masses of blossoms had been strewn along the pathway of the train. Inside the sta tion the Iron railing held back a surg ing multitude, while within the rail the entire force of the city post office was drawn up on one side of the track, with banners wound with crepe, and the force of the custom house was on the other side. In front of the crowd stood Mayor Hayes, with his sister, each bearing great clusters of roses and palms a tribute from the city, to be placed on the bier of the dead President. As the flowers were passed within the train, the notes of "Nearer, r'"a-ies Murder First Degree. Buffalo, Sept. 17. i.eon F."

The quest for trade is an in centive to men of business, to devise. invent, improve and economize in cost of production.

Progreaa In tbe Past, The Pan-American exposition has done its work thoroughly, presenting in its exhibits. evidences of tbe highest skill and illustrating tbe progress of the human family in the western hem isphere. This portion of the earth has no cause for humiliation for the part It has performed in the march of civiliza tion. It has not accomplished every thing: far from it. It has simply done Its best, and without vanity or boast fulness and recognizing tbe manifest achievements of others It invites the friendly rivalry of all the powers in the peaceful pursuits of trade and com merce and will co-operate with all In advancing the highest and best inter ests of humanity. Tbe wisdom and en ergy of all the nations are none too great for the world's work. The suc cess of art. science. Industry and In vention is an international asset and a common glory. After all. how near one to tbe other Is every part of the world! Modern in ventions have brought into close rela- .on widely separated peoples - and made them better acquainted.

The same important news Is read, though in different languages the same day in all Christendom. The telegraph keeps us advised of what is occurring everywhere, and the press foreshadows with more or less ac curacy the plans and purposes of the nations.

Vast transactions are conducted and international ex changes are made by the tick of the cable. Every event of Interest is imme diately bulletined. The quick gathering and transmis sion of news. like rapid transit, are of recent origin and are only made pos sible, by the genius of the inventor and the courage- or th investor. It took a special messenger of the govei.acnt with every facility known at the time for rapid travel, nineteen days to go from the city of Washington to New Orleans with a nipssn t nani Jackson that the war with England had ceased and a treaty of peace had been signed. How different now! We reached (Jeneral Miles In Porto Rico by cable, and he was able through the military telegraph to stop his army on the firing line with the message that the United States- and Spain had sign- u a protocol suspending hostilities. We knew almost instantly of tbe first shots fired at Santiago, and the subse quent surrender of the Spanish forces was known at Washington within less than an hour of its consummation. The first ship of Cervera's fleet had hardly emerged from that historic harbor when the fact was flashed to our cap ital, and the swift destruction that fol lowed was announced Immediately through the wonderful -medium of te legraphy. So accustomed are we to safe and easy communication with dis tant lands that its temporary interrup tion even In ordinary times results in loss and Inconvenience. We shall never forget the days of anxious waiting and awful suspense when no information was permitted to be sent from Peking and the diplomatic representatives of the nations in China, cut off from all communication inside and outside of the walled capital, were surrounded by an angry and misguided mob that threatened their lives, nor the joy that thrilled the world when a single mes sage from the government of the Unit ed States brought through our minister the first news of the safety of the be sieged diplomats. At the beginning of the nineteenth century there was not a mile of steam railroad on the globe. Now there are enough miles to make its circuit many times. Then there was not a line of v.v.i. .v icicgmpu. iNuw we nave a vast mileage traversing all lands and all seas. God and man have linked the nations together. No nation can longer be indifferent to any other, and as we are brought more and more in touch with each otherthe less occasion Is there for misunderstandings and the stronger the. disposition when we have differences to adjust them in the court of arbitration, which is the no blest forum for the settlement of Inter national disputes. Unexampled Prosperity. My fellow citizens, trade statistics In dicate that this country is in a state of unexampled prosperity. The figures times; measures or rera nation are not. If, perchance, some of our tariffs are no longer needed for revenue or to en courage and protect our industries at home, why should they not be employ ed to extend and promote our markets abroad? Then, too, we have inade quate steamship service. New lines of steamers have already been put in commission between the Pacific coast ports of the United States and those of the western coasts of Mexico and Central and South America. These should be followed up with direct steamship lines between the eastern coast of the United States and South American ports. One of the needs of the times is di rect commercial lines from our vast fields of production to the fields of con sumption that we have but barely touched. Next In advantage to having the thing to sell Is to have the conven ience to carry It to the buyer. We must encourage our merchant marine We must have more ships.

That all the people are par ticipating in this great prosperity is seen in every American community and shown by the enormous and unprece dented deposits in our savings banks. Our duty is the care and security of these deposits, and their safe invest ment demands the highest Integrity and the best business capacity of those in charge of these depositories of the people's earniugs. We have a vast and Intricate busi ness, built up through years of toil and struggle, in which every part of the country has its stake, which will not permit of either neglect or of undue selfishness.
