Mrs. McKinley Desperately III. She is Unconscious Most of the Time-Doctors in Consultation. San Francisco, Maj 15.-Owing to the very serions character of Mrs. McKinley's illness, the president this morning definitely decided to abandon his contemplated northwestern tour and to return to Washington direct, so soon as Mrs. McKinley shall be able to stand the journey. The gravity of Mrs. McKinley's condition has been known to the members of the presi? dent's immediate party for several days, but had been concealed in the belief that she would rally, as she had so frequently done in the past when suffering from one of her periods of depression, and with a few days of ab? solute rest, be restored to normal con? dition. But her present illness has been attended with entirely new com? plications, which have not yielded to treatment, and the president concluded this morning that it was time the pub? lic should be apprised of the true situation. The bulletin which Secre? tary Cortelyou gave out this morning, announcing the abandonment of the trip, coupled with another announce? ment that Mrs. McKinley's condition last night was better in some respects, but worse in others, prepared the way for the bulletin issued two hours later that Dr. Henry Gibbons, a celebrated physician of San Francisco, had been called in consultation with Dr Hirsch felder and Dr. Rixey. Dr. Gibbons has a. reputation here for his skill in the treatment of bowel troubles. It was the president's wish that another phy? sician be called in consultation, not because he did not have perfect confi? dence in Drs. Hirschfelder and Rixey, "but because he desired that nothing that science could do should be left undone. He was especially anxious ! that the diagnosis of the attending physicians should agree. Ever since Mrs. McKinley arrived at the Scott residence she has been desperately ill. Her extreme weakness has been the most alarming feature of her condi? tion. Her vitality has been at a low .ebb, and she has spoken seldom to j those about her. The president has j heen continually at her bedside since "theil arrival here Sunday night, save j the few hours Monday afternoon, when j he left her to go to San Jose, and the three hours he spent yesterday in the I parade. Fortunately Mrs. McKinley -slept through his absence on both occasions. The strain which the pres? ident himself has undergone during the past few days has been very great. All day, except for a brief half hour this afternoon, when he yieided to the .entreaties of those about him- and went out for a drive, he has remained steadfastly at Mrs. McKinley's side. The members of the cabinet reluctant? ly consented to carry out 'today's pro? gramme at the University of Califor? nia and at Oakland but they put no heart into the festivities while their chief was grieving at his wife's bed? side. - Hrs. McKinley May Pass Away at Any Moment. San Francisco, May 16.-Mrs. j ^McKinley is in the shadow of the val? ley of death and may pass away at any ? moment. This morning shortly before dawn she sank rapidly and it was fear? ed she would die before restoratives ! could be administered, but she re? sponded to the wonderful heart stimu? lants that were given to her and dur? ing the day improved to such an extent that hope of her recovery, slight though it was, revived. Her life hangs by a thread. The new treatment for low salt, salt injections into the veins, was adminis? tered to Mrs. McKinley and she re? sponded to the treatment. She has taken no solid food since she reached here on Sunday and the physicians do not believe she could survive another sinking spell such as she experienced this morning. She suffers little and bears up bravely. During her periods of consciousness today her mind was clear. The president is constantly at her bedside, and although worn out by his long vigil, is standing the awful strain with remarkable fortitude. Every banquet and public function planned in his honor here has been abandoned and the city with heavy heart is watching Mrs. McKinley's battle for life. If the end should come, the president and his party will be ready to start back with the remains within 24 hours. The train which brought them here will be used on the return trip and all arrangements have been made to go back by the shortest1 route, the Central and Union Pacific j to Chicago and thence via the Pennsyl? vania to Washington. If Mrs. McKin? ley shall improve, it is not believed that she will be able to travel before a week from the coming Monday. All the members of the cabinet with the possible exception of Secretary Long will remain here to the end. His daughter is very ill a* Colorado Springs and he is very apprehensive tnat he may be called there at any time. The chances are that G. Duncan Bellinger will be the next governor of South Carolina.-Spartanburg Her? ald. One on Mcsweeney. A case that has caused considerable amount of quiet amusement was brought to light yesterday when it was learned that the sealed sentence of Ben McDaniel, colored, had been com? muted by Governor McSweeney. McDaniel was convicted at the last term of court of general sessions of the charges of selling liquor and maintaining a nuisance. At the time of his trial McDaniel could not be found and Judge Benet imposed a sealed sentence upon him. After the verdict was rendered and the case disposed of McDaniel's attorney, Capt. W. G. Sirrine, went to work to have the sealed sentence commuted. Capt. Sirrine was suc? cessful in his efforts, the sentence having been commuted to $50. The sealed sentence was opened yesterday by Clerk Jas. A. McDaniel and found to be for one year in the penitentiary or pay a fine of 8300. It was well for McDaniel that South Carolina has such an obliding and accommodating executive. McDaniel's fine of $50 has been paid and it is supposed that he will now come out from his hiding place. Greenville News. Another Big Steel Combine. Chicago, May 14.-The Chronicle tomorrow will say : "A combination of the outside steel concerns, with a capital of 8200,000, 000, is said to be in process of promo? tion by John W. Gates, John Lambert and Isaac L. Ellwood, the promoters and organizers of the American Steel and Wire Company. The concerns to be gathered into the new combine are : The Colorado Fuel and Iron Company, the Republic Iron and Steel Company, the Pennsyl? vania Steel Company, the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company. "The aggregate capital of these con? cerns is $135,000,000. The Morgan combination has been seeking to affiliate one and all of them at various times and negotiations had almost advanced to the point of completion when the stock market broke last week and spoiled the arrangement." True Till Death to the Stars and Bars. From the South Pacific -from Sa? moa-comes a curious, pathetic story of devotion to the "Lost Cause," and even the least susceptible reader must wonder who the unknown ex-Confed? erate was and what was his history. The Samoans are experts at rowing and sailing-from which fact Bou? gainville, the French discoverer, call? ed their country the Navigators' Isl? ands-and since the advent of the white man every Samoan boat must have its flag. Just what the flag rep? resents is not so important a question. Sitting in the cool of his porch, overlooking the bay one afternoon during his term as land commissioner, ex-Chief Justice Chambers of Samoa saw a boat approaching the shore fly? ing a flag the sight of which struck him at once with peculiar interest. It was none other than the Stars and Bars of the Southern Confederacy. What could it be doing, wondered he, in the Southern Pacific-and so long after Appomattox? He determined to learn the history of the flag and get possession of it. But, meeting the boat as it landed, he found the owner by no means will? ing to part with his flag. The offer of the "American chief" to buy it was promptly, thongh poli tel v declin? ed. Then the Justice tried a little diplo? macy: he took the boatman into a store and bought for him a bolt of calico and then a kit of mackerel which delighted the Samoan to whom they were luxuries. But the native still insisted that he could not part with his flag. ' It would not be right for me to give it to you." said he, in such a manner as to show that some deep feel? ing was involved. "But why? Where did you get it? And why do you value it so highly?" asked Mr. Chambers. "Well, I will tell you." answered the Samoan. "A long time ago a man came to Samoa from far off in Amer? ica-where you came from. He was not a sailor, but told me he had been a soldier. He was my friend and lived at my house. But after a while he got sick : and one day he said to me : 'Tasi, look in my bag there and get out my flag, and put it upon the wall where I can see it.' "I did so; and he would lie there and look at it and look at it. Several days afterward he grew worse. He called me to him and said : " 'Tasi, I am going to die. I am far away from my home and my people. This flag is all I have in the world: you have been my friend: I give it to you. Keep it as long as you live. Don't give it to anybody-and what? ever you do, don't you ever let a Yan? kee have it." "No, my chief, I cannot part with this flag-not till I die. "-Saturday Evening Post. San Juan, P. R., May 14.
