Milburn House. Buffalo, Sept. 11.— The President will live, but will prob ably carry the bullet of the would-be assassin with him to the grave. This Is the expressed opinion of Dr. Mr-Bur ney. of New York, In a statement to a representative of the Associated Press after the consultation of the physicians this morning. He announced that the President has passed the danger point, and now only the possibility of compli cations remains. He also announced that unless tbe bullet embedded In the muscles of the back causes trouble, there will be no necessity to extract It. In his opinion It will not even be lo cated by the X-ray. The only use of the X ray would be to satisfy curiosity. All other physlcans were equally confident after the morning consulta tion that recovery Is assured. Dr. Mynter said the President was out of the woods, and Dr. Wasden supple mented the figure of speech by adding "with plenty of daylight behind him.” Dr. Roswell Park expressed it this way: "Unless unexpected complica tions occur, we expect him to recover." The day. which had dawned, wet and gloomy, cleared as the physicans de parted. The sun broke through the clouds and bathed the Ivy-clad house in which the President lay in mellow sunshine. The faces of the sentries who paced their beats grew radient. the tireless workers of the press were Jubilant, and the people who gathered at the lines were so overjoyed with the strong assurance given that sev eral times they were on the point of raising a cheer.

Y., Sept. 7.—President McKinley was shot and seriously wounded by a would-be assassin while bolding a reception in the Temple ot Music at the Pan American grounds a few minutes after 4 o'clock yester day afternoon. One shot took effect in the right breast, the other in abdomen. The first is not of a seri ous nature and the bullet has been extracted. The latter pierced the ab- dominal wall and has not been lo- cated. The President was approached by a man with a dark mustache and with one hand covered with a handker chief. As the man extended his hand to the President, 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 fired at once, which entered the President's abdomen. The assailant was immediately ar rested and was thrown to the groum and quick as a flash 20 men wer upon him. When rescued he was co ered with blood from a gash In h face. Cries of lynching were hea on every hand, but the police ma aged to get the man out of t grounds and locked him up in a a tion house a short distance from ' grounds.

The streets were early thronged with thousands of strikers, and the men who were turned back yesterday by the strikers did not leave their homes. Except at the Hoey-Street entrance to the mill there was no disorder. A few bricklayers started Into the place, but a crowd of Hungarians assembled there and forced them to remain on the outside. The men operating the light department were unable to get to the works today and it is probable the plant will be in darkness tonight.
