McKinley, William
McKinley, William (1843–1901) 25th US president (1897–1901). McKinley sat in the House of Representatives as a Republican (1876–90), and was elected governor of Ohio in 1891. He defeated William Jennings Bryan in the presidential election of 1896. A strong and effective president, he was largely preoccupied by foreign affairs. McKinley gained the support of Congress for the
Spanish-American War (1898), and sanctioned US participation in suppression of the
Boxer Rebellion in China (1900). McKinley declared that
isolationism was “no longer possible or desirable”. Re-elected in 1900, he was shot dead by an anarchist on September 6, 1901. Theodore
Roosevelt succeeded him as president.
