Assassinated

 

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY DEAD.
——
SHOT IN BUFFALO
——
At a Reception in the Temple of Music.

     Just as we are going to press a bulletin has been received, giving the awful news that William McKinley, the President of the United States, had been assassinated, and was dead. No particulars can be had, other than at a public reception, in the Temple of Music, while the President was shaking the hand of an unknown man, he was shot at three times, each bullet taking effect and the President expiring almost immediately.
     The name of the assassin is not known.
