i'-e the services this momine over nil that
temalns nf William, MeKinley save the
memory of him, that will linger in the
hearts of the 'American people, whom, he
loved and who loved and trusted him.
The grandeur, and pomp that oftentimes
lift at' the last men of attainments' to a
p'neaele of supposititious clearness, were not
present. They would have been so far out
ot .place as id' be a .distinct shock to. the
sorrowing hearts that "pothered at. the Mil-
hum cottage 1" Delawaie avenue at It
o'clock.
Had William McKlnlcy himself- directed
the ceremonies, those who know him best
are -united in tjici't belief that he would have
changed none nf the details. It was a
simple ceremony. . Kxc,ept for the presence
oftmahy of fbe'most distinguished men In
the nation, the set vices in the house might
have been the last words said over any
one of a hundred tho'uni;d men. so far as
one acquainted with the facts could have
observed. "Barely l'l'te wcre admitted
to the house,-and those.bnly by special In

and those waiting to gain entrance fell
hack, making a narrow lane, through which
Mr. Roosevelt passed along to (he house.
As the President passed within the house
and the servltes were about lo begin, the
long line of soldiers and sailors swung in
columns or fours into Delaware avenue and
formed In battalion front along the heatitl
rul thoroughfare, opposite the hone and Im
mediately racing II. On Ihe extreme left
were the regulars, on the right the sailors
and marines. In the center the national
guardsmen. Thry stood at pirade rest with
colors lowered, each flag wound about II?
staff and hound with rrpiio. Thn frnm of
'the house and (lie lawns had been cleared
by this time, and Ihe sweep ot the avenue
was now deserted save for the rigid, mo
tionless ranks, acrofs from the house.
Lifelike in Ileal h.
Within the house of death was woe un
speakable. In the drawing-room to tho
right of the hall, as President Roosevelt en
tered, the dead chieftain was stretched up
on his bier. Ills head was to the rising sun.
On his face was written the story-of the
Christian forbearance with which h had
met his martrydom. Only the thinness of
his face bore mute testimony to the' pa
tient suffering he had endured. He was
uresscu as no always was In lire. The
black fro-k coal was buttoned across Ihe
breast, where Ihe first bullet of the assassin
had struck.-- The black string tio below the
standing collar, showed the little triangle of
shirt front. The right hand lay at hlaslde.

He looked as millions of his countrymen
have seen him, save for ono thing. Tlic lit
tle badge of the Loyal Legion, tho only dec
oration he ever wore, which was always lu

The body lay In a black casket on a black
brarsk n rug. Over the lower limbs was
flung the slnrry banner lie had loved o
well. The flower.1 were few. an befitted the
simple nature of the man. A spray of white
chrysanthemum-. H flaming-'bunch of blocd
red American Beauty rO.-cs anil a magnm
cent bunch of violets were on the casket.
That was all. Behind the' head against a
pier mirror between the two curtained win
dows rested two super!) wreaths of white
asters and roses. These were the onlv
flowers .In the room. Two-sentries", ono from
the- sea and one from the land, guarded
the remains. They stood M the window
embrasures behind the head ot Ihe casket.
The one to the north 'was a sergeant ot
Inrantry. In Ihe other window was the
sailor garbed in the loose blue blouse 'of the
Mr. McKinlcj With Jler Ucml.
The family had taken leave of their
loved one befcre the others arrived. Mrs.
MeKinley, the poor, grief-crushed widow,
had been led into the chamber by her phv
slelan, Doctor Rixey, anj hat, sat aw.n,'e
alone with him who had supported and
cocrt-, hcr thr"Sh all their years or

gone, she had not broken down. Dry-eyed,
she gazed upon hi.m and Tondled his face. She
did not seem to realize that he was dead.

"He was a man uf" large talents and a

nf the talented and energetic President will
aiouse the lands, which, for the sake of
freedom of conscience 'and: thought, harbor
bad element'and arc the breeding ground's
for plot and action .against the enemies of

RKrUIlMC SPECIAL
Buffalo. N. V.. Sept. 13.-Wbile. Buffalo
and its tons of thousands of visitors have
been reverently filing past the dead Prei
dentV bier, the new President, with brave
and lesolute face, surrounded by serious-
minded counsellors, has been looking- ahead
in the future and making plans for the
;.ublie good.
Then- is no wavering about Theodore
Roosevelt. He. Pees his work before lilm
und i- preparing to do it. He Is preparing,
like a man who. ha had a great charge1
left to his 'keeping by another. He is pre
paring as a son would go about fulfilling
the last -serious request of a dying purent.
He Is doing it reverently, without pride, im
pressed with the tremendous responsibili
ties, yet courageous withal.
His declaration, which thrilled an all-too-panlcky
country yesterday, that he would
carry out the policy ot President McKlnley,
Is the only public utterance that he will
make at this time. That utterance has won
for Mr. Roosevelt golden praise from all
parts of the country to-day. What to-morrow-
may bring forth in Wall street no one
knows, but if confidence Is not restored It
will not be Theodore Roosevelt's 'fuult.
He. mean.-, absolutely what he says. No'
man has a. livelier sense of public obliga
tion, and the rights ot vested capital; and
no man In public life Is more anxious that
the coarse of 'business prosperity should
continue. .
M-:iTIIKIt FinilTS Oll ASKS
FAVORS OF JVAIiL STHEKT.
President Roosevelt la not antagonistic to
Wall street, although certain elements in
Wall street have been bitterly antagonistic
to and distrustful of him. He has never
dreamed of making war on the great ma
nipulators of the stock market or the crea
tures of those vast aggregations of capital;
yet some of these gentlemen thought it a
very tine thing to make him Vice President
In order "to end tils political career. Presi
dent Roosevelt will not carry. Into the pres
idency any personal or political resent
ment. The exploit ot shelving Roosevelt
has terminated in the elevation of him"
Well and good. Roosevelt i3 willing to cull
all things square and begin over again.
The statement the new President made
just before he took the oath was no hasty.
Impulsive remark. Jt had been carefully
considered. It was made after due thought
and consultation. The President really
meant It as a tribute to President MeKinley
and as an acknowledgment ot the wislom
ot the policy that MeKinley had started.
He felt that he had really been called to
complete the work that the nssassln's bul
let had rut short.
Some of his Tricnds had already called to
his attention the wisdom of making some
such declaration, and one man at least had
traveled COO miles in order to ask the Pres
ident to make a statement that he would
adopt rathe-- than upset McKlnley's policy,
the same lo be published on Monday morn
ing. When ho opened the morning papers
this morning he declared that he had been
anticipated and expresses great delight. .
KSO.V ASO nOOT TtlAY
ltKMAIN IX CAIHXKT.
When the new President returned rrom
ihe ceremonies ot the removal or Presi
dent McKlnley's body to the lying-in-state
In the City Hall licwas joined at the house
ot .Mr. Ansley Wilcox by Secretary ot -War,
Root and Attorney General Jmiox. tic liaa
a long consultation-with these gentlemen,
both ot whom arc not only eminent law
yers; but possessed of n large degree of
common sense. The subject of this conver
sation was not made public, but It Is known
thnt there Is st .very strong wish on the part
of Roosevelt's friends that he should In
duce Attorney General Knox to remain In
tlic Cabinet permanently.
Mr. Knox entered the Cabinet at the car
nest request of President MeKinley. -His
private affairs are In such condition that It
Is not ne-cessary for him to resume the prnc
tlc3 of. law, and since he ha9 found his way
clear lo become Attorney General ho one
would bo surprised If he should remain in
the Cabinet until the end of the present
term.
As to Mr. Root's remaining in the Cabi
net there Is believed to he no question. Ho
and Mr. Roosevelt are friends of long stand
ing. They have been through so much to
gether and know each other so well that It
Is pretty certain that Mr. Root will remain
unless ill health some time in the future
should compel him to quit.
MR. ROOT wu.i. rnonAUi.v
Sl'CCKF.D MKCHETARY HAY.
At tlu present time public men can ,see
.nothing but Root for Secretary ot State.
They would all like to see Mr. Hay remain.
Indeed, Mr. Hay has been invited to re
main, yet the understanding here is that
tho present Secretary' of State will retire
when hdcan do so without embarrassment.
While it is understood that Senator Lodge
is likely to receive an offer" ot the portfolio
of State. .It Is quite likely that he will de
cline. W'lth Roosevelt as President the
position cf Senator Lodge in the Senate
w-ili be that ot spokesman and personal
representative- of the administration. This
Is a porition that will certainly be much
to Senator Ijdge's liking. He will probn
'111? also be chairman of the Committee on
Foreign Relations, and this would com

Gage to retire. The opinion is expressed hy
Mr. Gage's friends that he can be Induced
to stay. He knows Rocssvclt and lllMS
him. yet it is recalled that when he went
into President McKlnlev's Cabinet in 1KT
he was scarcely acquainted -personally with
tne I'reslilcnt. aim nc ami .ncnmu:) "";
not met. when the Invitation was carried
to Mr. Gage to enter the Cabinet.
The new President had a number of call
ers. Including Governor Odell. General John
R. Brooke and Representative I.ittuuer.
For some he had only time to shake hands
and say a' pleasant word. To others' lie
could, give more' attention. To the news
paper men he was candor itself. He told
them frankly what his plans were so far as
he had plans.
.It Is the. Intention of the President to ac
company the dead President's body to
Washington to-morrow on the special train.(
He will remain In Washington while the
body is there, being a guest at the house
of his brother-in-law. Captain William S.r
CUwies. He will Journey from Washington'
to Canton and attend the funeral, and when
the obsequies are over will return to the
national capital as quickly as possible and
establish himself In the White House. Here
he will be Joined very soon by Mrs.- Roose
velt and all the children. It had been the
Intention of Mr. Roosevelt, while Vice Presi
dent, to spend the b.ilance of September at
Oyster Biry and gn.to Washington October
1 for the purpose of jilaclng the children at
school.
PHi;SIDKT'S CORDIAL
RELATIONS WITH CAIIIXET.
The Jrelatlonx between the new President
and the old Cabinet are very amiable. "A,
report gained currency to-day that.- at his
"conference with the Cabinet yesterday, -Mr,
Roosevelt coupled his request that the
members remain In olflce with the state
ment that he, would like them to stay two
mohths at least. This Is not no. and tho
story is denied on the authority of the
.President, as well as the members Of th
Cabinet who were present.
Postmaster General Smith, in discussing
the matter this evening, said:
"We are all trying to continue-the Gov
ernment without any friction or Interrup
tion, and the new President Is doing hts
part nobly. It has not been the Intention ot
any member of' the Cabinet to .resign; 'in
ruch a way as tf cause President MeKin
ley' successor the slightest. embarrassment!
But when Mr. Roosevelt yesterday asked
us to remain In office. Ire accompanied the
request with such generous," and sincere, ex
pressions that we ail unanimously ugrecu
to comply with tiiem: No one knows-how
long 1t will be before there is any' change
In the caDinet. m me uuusl oi: i-unuiiim
grief, the. only thing we are thinking ,ot.ls
to continue the work of the Ggvcrnment,in
:a--mariner that will hcsL suit thcnubiis.
That Is all .President Roosevelt .Is thinking
of and all V arc thinking: of, and I trust,
we wili" i V."s - ' "
