He was then reelected in 1900, but was assassinated in 1901 just weeks after the 1900 election.

History

The 1934 Series redesigned all four of the 1918 Series Federal Reserve Notes. The $500 and $1,000 bills received new designs on the obverse and reverse, with President McKinley replacing John Marshall on the former and President Grover Cleveland replacing Alexander Hamilton on the latter. While President James Madison and Salmon P. Chase remained on the obverse of $5,000 and $10,000 notes, respectively, while the reverse sides of both notes were altered.
