Abstract
"President Wm. McKinley Assassinated!!! The report reached this city just as the Democrat was being put to press that shortly after noon on Friday in the city of Buffalo, N. Y., where he was attending the exposition. Inquiry at the local telegraph office developed the fact that such a report had gone over the wire. After some delay on account of the wires being in use the Spokane office was communicated with and the truth of the rumor briefly confirmed. Later. Special to Yakima Democrat. Buffalo, N. Y. Sept. 6.--President McKinley was shot in the stomach and the chest here this afternoon in front of the Ethnological building. His condition is serious."
