OCCUPIED SPECIAL CAR AND REPUBUC SPECIAL. Buffalo, N. IV. Sept. H. Mr. Roosevelt left North Creek at 5:43 a. m., arriving In Albany at 736. He Immediately boarded a special train. The car on which he was to travel was locked. The train pulled out of the Albany Btatlon at 8:02 and passed Schenectady, the first telegraph station, seventeen miles distant, at 8:27 a. m. Whin President Roosevelt reached North Creek an attempt was made to Interview him. but he refused to talk. The car In which President Roosevelt made the trip to Buffalo was the private car or ice i-resiaeni auuns i " Acm.wtc and Hudson company. As the train left for Buffalo Mr. Roosevelt's secretary was handed a big batch of telegrams. The en gineer in charge of the train was limited to Empire State express time. Great crowds were" at the station to meet the Delaware and'Hudson train uponitsar jival here, but they were not afforded an opportunity to see the President. The por ter was sent out to the station restaurant to get breakfast for the President and his secretary. Mr. Iioeb. The police kept the crowd from the steps of the' car. While the New York Central special was being made tip at Albany. Secretary Loeb went to th platform of the President's car and said: "I. am very sorry, but the Vice President will see no one at this time." "Is he sleeping?" was asked. "No, he is awake," Mr. Ijoeb replied. "Has Mr. Roosevelt taken the oath of of fice yetT' "No, sir." "Have any arrangements been made for Mr. Roosevelt to take- the oath between here and Buffalo or at Buffalo?" Had Long, Hard Ride. "No, sir." Mr. Loeb replied, and then he "conUnued: "You may say that no arrange ments have been made at all of any de scription. 1 don't know what will be done at Buffalo. No plans as yet have been made. All I can say Is this: That upon his arrival In Buffalo Mr. Roosevelt will become the guest of Mr. Wilcox, with whom he stopped when he was at Buffalo before." In reply to a question as to whether there were any incidents on the trip from the' camp to North Creek, Mr, Loeb said: "No, but it was a long, hard. ride. Horses were changed three times."

It-was not -until -nearly sunset last even ing that Mr. Roosevelt, was found In the forests of the Adlrondacks. where he had gone upon ft hunting expedition immeaiaie 'ly upon leavlng'Buffalo. As he stood upon the top of Mount Marcy he was told by a passing guide, who brought the message, ;that almost certainly before morning be would be President' of a nation of nearly 80.000,009 people. . , . . . All dayahey had been searching for him among the ravines and mountains of New "York's great northern forest; and at last scarcely an hour before sunset, they found CLAIMING CREDIT CAPTURE OF Captain of the Coast Artillery Sribmits an Official Iteport in Wliicli He Describes the ABBanlt Upon the President in Detail, and Claims That His Men Captured Czolgosz. Buffalo, Sept. ll.-The credit for the ar rest of President McKinley's assassin and for his rescue from the crowd Is claimed by Captain John P. Wlsser of the Artillery Corps for. his men. whose names he gives in his renort of the shooting to the Ad jutant General of the United States Army at Washington. Captain Wlsser says In his report that he made a detail, at the request of Mr. Bab cock of the Reception Committee, to assist In reculatlne the advance of the people at the. President's reception in the Temple of Music, September 6. Corporal Bertschey and ten' men reported to Mr. Babcock at 3 p. m. The Corporal is 3, soldier of twenty years' service. The Corporal gave the" men in his detail instruc tions to keep their eyes open and watch every man approaching the President. "When the assassin fired the two shots," says Captain Wlsser, "Private Brooks -was "standing immediately In the rear of Mr. John Muburn. wbo was on the loft of Uie President. Private O'Brien was Immedlr ately on Mr. Mllburn's left. Private Fenn bongh was directly opposite the President, and Private Neff was opposite Private O'Brien. Corporal Bertsch'el was midway be tween Private O'Brien and the point where the President stood. When the shots were nred Private O'Brien, was the first man on the" assassin, with Private Neff. Corporal -Bertschey and Private Brooks reached him at about the same time. Private Brooks col liding with Mr. MUburn in his effort to get' at the assassin. Heia Assassin Dovra.

Pri vate- Heiser followed Corporal Bertschey, Jn falling on the prisoner, and, while he was down on ms nam- juito w ' side of the 'prisoner's bead, he saw that the President was still- standing up, looking; down on the group of men on the prisoner., The President then walked with the help of two gentlemen to a chair and sat down.

It wag the culmination of a career which has no parallel In American politics. and few parallels anywhere. .It seems lu ting that nature and circumstances had provided such a' setting for, this scene the vast forest, the lonely mountain top. clothed In the light of the setting sun, and the young man standing there in the center of it nil listening to the words which bore to him the most important that "any Ameri can can ever receive. He was clad In plain hunting dress, his hands were scratched by bushes and briers, and he leaned upon his gun as he listened. When he had heard all he said little, but at once hastened southward to taKe up me ftwl'cvh down y'"K ma" 0t BUffa, " ThooRht McKinley Woold Recover, When Theodore Roosevelt left Buffalo he. like every one else, was confident that Mr. McKinley was getting well. and. after his custom when wishing' to rest from a long strain, he put himself in hunting clothes and plunged into the wilderness in search at the same time of game and of relaxa tion. He went to the Tahawus Club, and before the sun was up left with guides on a hunting trip through the forest. He had no Intimation then of Mr. McKinley's re lapse, and was in great spirits, looking forward to a day of exhilarating sport and the physical exertion that brings rest. Not many hours after Mr. Roosevelt's departure from the clubhouse the news of Mr. McKinley's seriousness arrived, and it became necessary at once to find the Vice President. The club steward knew that this was no easy task, as this is the tangled wilder ness over which Leather-Stocking and Uncas roamed, and it has changed but lit tle since their day. But it was. too, al most the first time In history that search had to be made for the heir to so great a place, and the officials of the club were on .ineir mettle. They said that the search must continue until Mr. Roosevelt was found and they pressed into service every guide and member of the club who was at hand. Tho hunt for Mr. Roosevelt was begun early In the day and continued for many hours over the penks. among the ravines and through the forest. The guides now and then fired shots to signal to each other or to attract the attention of Mr. Roose velt, but there was no sign. Thus the hunt went on nnd a nation waited, while Mr. McKinley's successor, not dreaming that he was needed, was lost In the woods. Searching, the Woods, Other messages were received at the Ta hawus clubhouse, which stated the Increas ing gravity of Mr. McKinley's condition and new searchers were sent Into the. forest after the missing Vice President. Some of the, earlier ones reported, saying that he could not b found. He was a man ac customed to the wilderness, and he might spend the night with his guides in a cabin somewhere in the. mountains. But the club members refused to give up. saying that they would continue tho search through the night. If necessary. The striking nature of the situation ap pealed to them. Here was a man who did .not know the great step upward that he was about to take, and he was almost the only one of the 80,000.000 who did not know it Moreover, the -80,000.000 ."wanted to find htm and tell him,-, and the club officials, feeling that the burden of it lay upon them, resolved to'succeed. " Nearly-all the afternoon passed In fruit less endeavor,-but shortly before 6 o'clock be was found on Mount Marcy, ten miles in the rough and tangled ."wilderness. He reached the club' about 9 o'clock, and, after stopping only a few minutes for hasty refreshment, took a bUckboard and began the long thlrty-flve-mlle Journey over the mountains. -The road which" Mr. Roosevelt 'followed 'Is difficult at the" best of times, but is doubly so at night. There' was no lingering, how ever, as the "club officials had teams and at. tf-ndant standlne at the door. and. with a few quick words of good-by. .they drove off. In a 'solemn silence, broken only by the rattling of the buckboard wheels on the mountain road. President Roosevelt arrived here shortly after 1 o'clock: .' FOR THE THE ASSASSIN. off. Captain Wlsser kept the crowd from capturing the prisoner by standing with fixed bayonets. The Captain' sent' a detail to clear the esplanade' and keep up with the carriage. Two' of Captain Wlssers men ordered two men from the wheels of the carriage, but the two men hung on un til Captain Wlsser's man. Sergeant Roth weller, threatened to shoot. Captain Wlsser put the revolver In. a case, sealed It and turned It over to the Chief of Police of Buffalo, September 7. ' Men' Xara editor Credit.

Andjnow, one by one, those in the house, the President's brother, Abncr, Secretary Boot, Secretary Wilson. Secretary Hitch cock, Mrs. McKinley's sister and others, went into the room of death for tho last look. Each looked at'the form on the bed; some wept no further than tho doorway and turned away. The sight of that .bravo-face, looking so like death,-caused them to weep. Not: one person, roan or woman, who came back downstairs was not weeping, and somo of the men. were, sobbing almost hysteric ally. Asked to See His Wife. About 8 o'clock Mr. McKinley recovered consciousness and again whispered Mrs. McKinley's name. Onco more they led her in and placed her in a chair beside the bed. They saw that he' was conscious and then turned away, all except the nurse and one doctor. - , She took his hand. His eyes opened. He spoke several sentences. Those near caught only one: . .. , .

In that room it was. for the moment, not the head of the mightiest nation on earth who was dying, it was a husband and lover standing by the darkrlverand, giving the last .look of love to' that sad. lonely, invalid woman to whom bis smile and cheerful words were literally the breath of life. The President himself fully realixed that his hour had come and his mind was turned to his Maker. He whispered feebly. "Nearer, my (Jod. to thee." tho words of the hymn always dear to his heart. Then In faint ncenls he murmured, "Good-by. all; good by. It Is God's way. His will be done, not ours." With this sublime display of Christian for titude the President soon after lapsed into unconsclousnea?. Grlcf-StrlcUcn Cabinet. Tho members of the Cabinet, grlef-strlck-cn, were gathered In the largo drawing room of the Milburn house. The time had romo when they, too. were to look upon the President for the last time In life. They ascended the stairway one'after the other, noiselessly approaching the threshold of the chamber where the dying man lay, and gazed within. Those who came first turned back appalled and overwhelmed, and did not pass within tho chamber.' Secretary Wilson remained below, unwilling to have Imprinted on his memory the picture of bis expiring ciiicr. secretary Long, wno arrivea on a late train, went at once to the cham ber and passed directly to' the bedside of the President, grasping the hand that was already clammy with approaching' death.

At : o'clock Doctor Rlxey was the only physician In the death-chamber. The others were In an adjoining room, while the rela tives.

The President had entered the val ley of the shadow of death. Word was at once taken to tho Immediate relatives who were not picsent to hasten for the last look upon the President in llff. They came in groups, the women weeping and the men bowed and sobbing in their Intense grief.
