PresidentMcKinleyShot
By an Anarchist
He Was Wounded Twice
Not Necessarily Fatai.
ASSAILANT AT ONCE ARRESTED
The Deed Was Committed While tlie
President Was Holding: n PnlHc
Reception in the Temple
of Mnsic.
BUFFALO, N. Y., Sept. 6.-PresIdent
McKInley was shot and seriously wounded
by a would-be assassin while holding- a
reception in the Temple of Music at the
Pan-American grounds a few minutes nf-
ter 4 o'clock this afternoon. One shot
took effect in the right breast, the other
In the abdomen. The first Is not of a
serious nature and the bullet has been
extracted. The latter pierced the abdom
inal wall and has not been located.
The President was approached by a man
with a dark mustache and with one
hand covered with a handkerchief. As
the man extended his hand to the Presi
dent, apparently with the intention of
shaking hands with him, he fired a shot
which entered the President's right
breast, lodging against the breast bone.
Another shot was iired at once, which
entered the President's abdomen.
The assailant was immediately arrested
and was thrown to the ground, and quick
as a flash 20 men were upon him. When
rescued he was covered with blood from
a gash In his face. Cries of .lynching
were heard on every hand, but the police
managed to get the man- out cf the
grounds and locked him up In a statiorr
house a short distance from the grounds.
Later he was removed' to the police head
quarters. Detective Geary was near the Preslderit
and he fell into his arms.
"Am I shot?" asked the President.
The officer opened the President's vest,
and, seeing blood, replied: "Yes, I am
afraid you are, Mr. President."
The President was at once taken to
the emergency hospital, where a bullet
which had lodged against the breast bone
was removed. Later the President was
reported as resting easily.
At 6 o'clock Dr. Roswell Parke, the
well-known surgeon, arrived at the hos
pital, and after putting the President un
der an anesthetic, began probing for
the ball In the abdomen.
The prisoner ..declares that he Is Fred
Nleman, of Detroit. When arrested he
was asked why he had' shot the Presi
dent, and replied:
"I am an anarchist, and have done my
duty."
Later he denied to a police official that
he was an anarchist. '
Mrs. McKInley received the news of
the attempted assassination with the ut
most courage.
STORY OF THE CRI3IB.
The President Shot While Holding: a
Public Reception.
BUFFALO, N. Y., Sept. 6. Just a brief
24 hours ago the newspapers of the city
blazoned forth In all their pomp in head
line type: "The Proudest Day in Buffalo's
History." Tonight, in sackcloth and
ashes, in somber type, surrounded by
gruesome borders of black, the same
newspapers are telling in funereal tones
to a horrified populace the deplorable de
tails of "the blackest day in the history
of Buffalo."
President McKInley, the Idol of the
American people, the Nation's Chief Ex
ecutive and the city's honored guest, lies,
prostrate, suffering the pangs Inflicted
by the bullet of a cowardly assassin,
while his life hangs In the balance. Out
on Delaware avenue, at the home of
John G. Mllburn, president of the Pan
American Exposition, with tearful face
and heart torn by conflicting hopes and
fears, sits the faithful wife, whose de
votion is known to all the Nation.
It was a few moments after 4 P. M
while President McKInley was holding a
public reception in the Temple of Music,
on the Pan-American grounds, that the,
cowardly attack was made, with what
success time alone can tell.
Where the Blow "Was Struck.
Standing In the midst of the crowds,,
numbering thousands, surrounded by
every evidence of good-will, pressed by
a motley throng of people, showered with
expresMcns of love and loyalty, besieged
by multitudes all eager to clasp his hand
amid these surroundings, and with the
ever-recurring plaudits of an army of
sightseers ringing in his ears, the blow
of the assassin came, and in an Instant
pleasure gave way to pain, admiration
to agony, folly turned to fury, and pan
demonium followed.
Tonight a surging, swaying, eager mul
titude throngs the city main thorough
fares, choking the streets In front of the
principal newspapers, scanning the bul
letins with anxious eyes, and grqaning
or cheering in turn at each succeeding
bulletin as ..the' nature of the message
sinks or huoys their hopes.
.Down at police headquarters, surround
ed by stem-faced Inquisitors of the law,
is a medium-sized man of commonplace
appearance, with his ft-sed gaze directed
to the floor, who presses his lips firmly
together snd listens with an air of as
sumed Indifference to the persistent
stream of questions, arguments, objurga
tions and admonitions with which his cap
tors seek to Induce or compel him to talk.
It was Just after the dally organ recital
in thfc splendid Temple of Music that the
dastardly attempt was -made. Planned
with all the diabolical ingenuity " and
finesse cf which anarchy or nihilism Is
capable, the would-be assassin carried out
the work without a hitch, and should his
designs fall and the President survive,
only to divine Providence can be attrib
uted that beneficent result.
' President Was Guarded.
. The President, though well guarded by
United States secret service detectives,
was fully exposed to such an attack as
occurred. He stood at the edge of the
raised dais upon which stands the great
pipe organ, at the east "side of the mag
nificent structure. Throngs of people
crowded In at the various entrances to
gaze upon their executive, perchance to
clasp his hand, and then file their way
out through the good-natured mob that
every minute swelled and multiplied at
the points of Ingress and egress to the
building.
Tlie President was in a cheerful mood,
and was -enjoying to the full the hearty
evidence of good-will which everywhere
metxhls gaze. Upon his right stood John
G. Mllburn, of Buffalo, president of the
Pan-American exposition, chatting with
the President and introducing him to per
sons of note who approached. Upon the
President's left stood Mr. Cortelyou.
It. was shortly after 4 P. M. when one
of the throng which surrounded the
Presidential party, a medium-sized man
of ordinary appearance, and plainly
dressed In black, approached as if to
greet the President. Both Secretary
Cortelyou and President Mllburn noticed
that the man's haftd-vas swathed in -a
bandage or handkerchief. Reports of by
standers differ as to which hand. He
worked his way amid the stream of peo
ple up to the edge of the dais until he
was within two feet of the President.
The Pistol Shot.
President McKInley smiled, bowed and
extended his hand in that spirit of genial
ity the American people so well know,
when suddenly the sharp crack of a,re
vo'ver rang out loud and clear above the
hum of voices, the shuffling sound of
myriad fcetand vibrating waves of ap
plause that ever and anon swept here
and there over the assemblage.
There was an Instant of almost com
plete silence. The President stood stock
still, a look of hesitancy, almost of be
wilderment, on hla face. Then he retreat
ed a step, while a-pallor began to "steal
over his features.
The multitude, 'only partially aware that
something, serious, Jiad happened, paused
In ' surprise, while iecks' were, droned alia,
all ei'es turned as. one to th.e rostrum
inhere a great tragedy was being enacted.
Assassin Overpowered.
Then came a commotion. Three men.
threw themselves forward, as with one
Impulse, and sprang toward the would-be
assassin. Two of them were United States
secret service men, who were on the look
out, and whose duty it was to guard
against just such a calamity as had
here befallen the President and the Na
tion. The third was a bystander, a negro,
who had only an Instant previously
grasped the hand of the President. In
a twinkling, "the assassin was borne to
the ground, his weapon was wrested from
his grasp, and strong arms pinioned him
down.
Then the multitude which thronged the
edifice began to come to a realizing
sense of the awfulness of the scene of
which they had been unwilling witnesses.
A murmur arose, spread and swelled to a
hum of confusion, then grew to a babel
of sounds, and later to a pandemonium,
of noises. The crowds that a moment be
fore had stood mute and motionless as
in bewildered ignorance of the enormity
of the thing, now. with a single Impulse,
surged forward toward the stage of the
horrible drama, while a hdarse cry went
up from a thousand throats and a thou
sand men charged forward to lay hands
upon the perpetrator of the crime.
Confusion Was Terrible.
For a moment the confusion was ter
rible. The crowd surged forward regard
less of consequences. Men. shouted, fought,
women fainted and children, screamed.
Many fled from the edifice in fear of a
stampede, while hundreds of others out
side struggled blindly forward in the ef
fort to penetrate the crowded building and
solve the mystery of the excitement and
panic which every moment grew and
swelled within the congested interior of
the edifice.
Inside, on the slightly Talsed dais, was
enacted, within a few moments, a trag
edy so dramatic In character, so. thrill
ing fn Its intensity, that few who looked
on will ever be able to give a clear
account of what really did transpire. Even
those who attended the President came
out qfit with blanched faces, trembling
limbs and beating hearts, while their
brains throbbed with a tumult of'confllct
ing emotions, which could not be classi
fied into a lucid narrative of the events
as they really transpired.
Of the multitude' which witnessed or
bore a part In the scene of turmoil and
turbulence, there was but one mind which
seemed to retain Its equilibrium, one hand
remained steady, one eye, which gazed
with unflinching calmness, and one voice
which retained Its even tenor and faltered
not at the most critical juncture. They
were the mind and hand and eye and voice
of President McKInley.
'At the President's Side.
After the first shock of the assassin's
shot he .retreated a step. Then, as the
detectives leaped upon .his assailant, he
w.alked slowly to a chair-and seated him
self, at the same time removing his hat
and bowing his head in his hands. In an
instant, Secretary Cortelyou and President
Mllburn were at his side. His waistcoat
was hurriedly opened, the President mean
while admonishing those about him to
remain calm, and telling them not to be
alarmed.
"But you're wounded?" cried his sec,
retary. "Let me examine,"
"No, I think not," answered the Presi
dent, "I am not badly hurt, I assure
you."
Nevertheless, his garments were hastily
tConcluded on Secbnd Page".)

Opinions of Portland Physicians.
Secretary Cortelyou's bulletin on the
diagnosis of the physicians who are at
tending President McKInley was shown
las.t night to several Portland physicians.
Opinions were asked of the chance of re
covery and the following were given
Dr.. A. E. Rockey The chest wound
will probably give but little trouble. The
wound' in the stomach would undoubt
edly have proved fatal by the extravasa-,
tlon of the stomach contents, which
would have produced peritonitis, If the
operation to close the bullet holes had
not been performed promptly. In this
respect President McKInley is more for
tunate than President Garfield. Without
Immediate operation his wound would
certainly have been fatal. Operations on
the stomach Involving much larger Incis
ions and more complicated suturing are
now frequently done and patients recover
without serious illness or discomfort. The
prompt action taken by the surgeons in
this case is commendable and the opera
tion was a proper one. The abdomen Is
closed without drainage when operations
are cojnplete that is, wrhen wounds of
the internal viscera are firmly closed
and septic materials removed. Speedy
recovery Is favored when this can be
done. In- this case it Indicates that the
surgeons believed the bullet wounds had
been perfectly repaired. The bullet Is
probably Imbedded In the structures back
of the stomach and outside of the abdom
inal cavity, where It may do no harm.
If It should subsequently produce disturb
ance it will probably be located by the
X-ravs and can then be removed. The
slight elevation, of the temperature noted
In the second buUJin is common shortly
after abdominal operations and Is con
sidered a. reaction temperature, not neces
sarily due to beginning Inflammation.
From the description of th operation. I
believe the President will recover.
Dr. Kenneth A. J."Mackenzte.--rhe oper
ation, was one of absolute necessity; anu
-unless It had been done, deatb would
have resulted promptly from shock an,'1
sepsis resultant from the escape of tho
contents of the stomach Into the general
cavity of the abdomen. The operation,
therefore, places the President in the
most favorable condition, possible for re
covery. There are four Important wounds
to be considered: The first that struck
the breast-bone may be dismissed as of
minor consequence. The second, which
penetrated the abdominal wall, is import
ant, but need not be considered now ex
cept as the channel communicating the
wounds of the stomach with the outer
world. Of these there are two; one pene-
$ooot'e
M'KINLEY.
.trating the anterior, - the other the pos
terior wall of the stomach. The great
danger attached to these two wounds are
in their order: First, fatal shock; second,
hemorrhage; third, extravasation or es
cape of -the stomach contents Into the
general cavity of the abdomen, causing
septic peritonitis. The first danger Is so
far passed, and the President, evidently
had reacted from the first shock before
the operation was performed. The sec
ond danger has also been disposed of, as
the operating surgeons must have satis
fied themselves that no vessels were
bleeding before they closed all the wounds.
In this connection, however, there re
mains more or less possible occurrence of
concealed hemorrhage within the stom
ach, or further, what Is called secondarj
hemorrhage. The third grave danger re
ferred to. that of septic peritonitis, still
exists, and will be determined by the
lapse of a little more time. But the
question of its recurrence must have been
carefully considered by the distinguished
surgeons in attendance, who would not
have closed the wound In tho abdominal
wall if they .had cherished fears of this
important complication.
In all likelihood, there was a partial
escape of the stomach contents Into the
general cavity of the abdomen at the mo
ment the wound was Inflicted, which was
thoroughly removed by irrigation with
salt solutions or mild ant'tseptlcs. Be
sides the three dangers referred to there
are of course others which depend upon
various conditions, the chief of which per
haps would be the damage done by the
bulllet In Its flight by injuring other parts
of the anatomy, which may have escaped
the attention of the surgeons. The flight
of the bulllet beyond the stomach wa3
presumably sufficiently studied to enable
the surgeons to determine that no other
important organs or tissues were dam
aged. If the -bullet was clean and did
not carry with It any clothing and other
Infected material, the risks are, of course,
very much reduced. If the President was
In a sound state of general health at
the time of the accident, and free from
organic disease, and assuming the de
tails of the injuries and the operative
measures as given by The Oregonlan,'s
press reports to be correct, I am of the
opinion that the President will recover.
Dr. A. J. Glesy Under ordinary circum
stances, there is a good chance for recovery-
That Is the inference, but it Is
difficult to give an opinion at this dis
tance. There Is danger of sepsis, ' of
course, but this may be overcome.
Dr. S. E. Josephl I should say that
under the present status of surgical
skill In treating such wounds the outlook
Is very fair, but the Inability to find the
bullet Is an unfortunate feature, for it
may have penetrated the spinal column
and there is no telling what damage it
may have done beycind the point to
which it has been traced. However, the
bullet may be embedded in some of the
soft structures In the back and may be
in a position where It will do no dam
age. Dr. C. A. Macrum The President has
a good chance for recovery. Of course,
there is danger from subsequent Inflam
mation, but judging from the telegraph
account of the operation, there has been
no septic infection from the contents of
the stomach.
Dr. W. H. Saylor I consider the Presi
dent's condition very favorable, with a
fair chance for recovering. If the mil
let was In the spinal column Its presence
would be Indicated by paralysis, of
which the bulletin says nothing.
CAPITAL SHOCKED
People of Washington Were
Stunned by the News.
CARRIED TO THE WHITE HOUSE
Steps Taken, at the Departments ta
Provide for a. Possible Emergency
Cabinet 3Ilnlsters Hurry at
Once to President's Bedside
WASHINGTON,. Sept. 6. The news o
the shooting of President 'McICtoley,
which, reached Washington first through;
the medium of tho Associated Press later
this afternoon, caused a tremendous
sensation. So frequent have been, the ru
mors of this sort, often put afloat in. re
cent years for stock-jobbing purposes,
that the general disposition, at first was
to withhold full acceptance of tho story
of the news; but when it was conflrxnotl
a feeling of deep gloom, and profound
sorrow spread over tho cltyv for HcKin
ley's delightful personality had endeared
him to the citizens of Washington, apart
from the official class, in a degree that
rarely has been equaled.
It was some tlmo before the full force
of the blow was appreciated: tho people
were stunned, and thoy could not re
spond at once and fully comprehend the
extent of the great disaster that had
fallen up"on the country and themselves.
Then the newspapers began to appear,
the carriers rushed madly through the
crowds, and crowds of people began to
gather from all quarters of the city
around the newspaper bulletin boards.
The telephone system of the city was
simply paralyzed for a time, and so many
were the calls upon the news offices and
upon the officials who might be supposed
to have some knowledge of the details of
the shooting that tho operators were over
whelmed. At the White House.
A representative of tho Associated Press
carried to the White House the first bulletin-
The Executive Mansion was reaehed
about 4:25. and at that time all Its lew
inmates were in total lgnoranee of the
tragedy In which their chief had iuet
played so serious a part. A policeman
paced up and down under the portico as
usual, but his serene countenance indi
cated that they were totally Ignorant of
the affair. Inside there were few to re
ceive the news. The most prominent per
sonage there, was a telegraph operator.
Assistant Secretary Prudsn, who has
been In charge of the White House, had
left his office for the day. as bad hb
subordinates.
The telegraph operator,, two watehmn
at the doora the policeman on guard out
side, and the faithful colored servant.
"Uncle Jerry," were the only pecaona
about, the mansion. They recalled with
great satisfaction the fact that when the
President left Washington he was In
most robust health and excellent spirits,
and that he bade all an affectionate fare
well. It was recalled also that Mm Mc
KInley, said this circumstance had much
to do with the President's own condition
later on.
Major Pruden. Assistant Secretary to
the President, and Colonel Crooks. Dis
bursing Officer, both veterans of the
White House force, arrived together
shortly after 5 o'clock and assumed ehrge
of the Executive Mansion. Major Pru
den had passed through a similar experi
ence when President Garfield was shot,
and Colonel Crooks' service went back
before the Lincoln assassination.
auch public men as could be found were
summoned. They Included Assistant Sec
retary Spalding, of the Treasury Depart
ment; ex-United States Senator Blair; As
sistant Secretary Hackett. of the Navy
