San Francisco. Cal.?The sudden illness of Mrs. MeKinley caused an uuexpeeled change in the itinerary of President MeKinley. lie arrived in this city quietly two days ahead of the time scheduled. The state of Mrs. McKitiley's health was such Sunday morning that the President decided to leave 1>?1 Monte and bring his wife to this city immediately to the hoiuc of Henry 'I'. Scott, where she could nave complete lest for a few days, and wheiv n specialist could be consulted If necessary, A special ol' two cars and a locomotive was made up from tlu* President's special, and the President. Mrs. Mckinley, Miss Marlicr, the President's niece; Secretary and Mrs. Corielyoit. I?r. Kixcy, and Mr, and Mrs. 11. T. Scott left Del Monte for San Francisco. having the remainder ?>i the Presidential party at Del Monte. Only a few hundred people greeted the President upon arrival in this city. When ihe train, consisting of a baggage car and the President's special coach, stopped at Valencia street. Mrs. Mckinley was carried in a steamer chair front the private car to a closed carriage in waiting. She was heavily veiled. s?ml lite President and Dr. llix cy took seats in tit,- same vehicle. The rest of the party followed in carriages. Mr. and Mrs. Scot t had arrived at their residence ahead ol the President, and were waiting to receive? their uistiugitished gliosis. Mrs. Mckinley was lifted out of the carriage and placed in an invalid chair and carried into the house. Secretary Cortelyou, when qttes- j tinned concerning Mrs. Mckinley's condition, stated that there was uotli ing alarming in her present indisposition, and thai perfect quiet and rest for a few days would restore her to her usual health, it was the impression. however, of those who saw Mrs. Mckinley that she is very ill. and that her present state may result in an entire change of the President's programme. ' Dr. 1'ixey made the following statement : "Mrs. Mckinley stood the trip front i Del Monte much better than 1 expect- ' | cd. Her condition is not serious. She ! i x\ ill stay h> "e at least a week, and j l"l Vn Itid'Timt i?nu4 I . , | >\ ? ? v ? i | v PI. 1 I II I II IV l?%V I I lil 1 1 i111n> sin- will l>e able to continue the j journey." Later Secretary t'ortelyou issued the i following; bulletin: "Mrs. McKiuley stood the trip from Monterey extremely well and is resting comfortably at Mr. Scott's residence. Iter attack ol' indigestion, it is believed, will yield promptly to rest and remedies, while the felon on her j hand is healing nicely." The day after leaving New Orleans a bone felon appeared upon Mrs. MeKinley's linger. Her hand became swollen stud gave her consalcable pain, and produced fever that prevented her from sleeping. Dr. Itixey lanced the felon and gave her some relief in that way. Mrs. McKiuley bore it bravely, ami urged that the programme at the cities and towns should not lie modified in any particular on her ; count. It was hoped that the rest at Del Monte would do her good, but she i slept little during the night, an., in ihe ! morning, although iter condition had | improved, site reluctantly agreed to come to San Kraucis o at once. The j party got away from the hotel so j quietly that many of the guests did not know until evening that the I'resi- ! dent and Mrs. McKiuley had gone. EXCURSION ENDS IN DISASTER.

It is simply impossible eve to estimate the losses sustained by brokers and their customers, hut it may be said without fear of contradiction ^ that the actual cash losses reached a , ^ total never before equalled in the history of Wall Street.

The tight for the control of this property came at a time when the market was ripe for a reaction. hut instead of a reaction an absolute and unrestrained paule developed. In the course of which prices declined from twenty to fifty points, with even greater setbacks in several issues. Not till the damage was done, not till J prices had crashed as they had not crashed even on Hlack Friday, did these men apparently awake to a realizing sense of the gravity of the situation. of the wreck of tiuaneinl values ! they had made. While the crash was under full. Steam the scene on tin*Stock Kxehange {was one almost impossible to describe. More members of the hoard were pres. cut than ever before recorded and more excitement, more howling, shouting and turbulence were noted than in ntiy preceding day known in Wall street. Thousands of men and women were called to Wall Street by tele-1 ! phone, telegraph and afternoon extras, ilnrd luck stories were heard on every ' corner and in every brokerage ollice. reports of millions lost, and in some cases millions won. were freely circtii Intcd, but, of course, in till cases exaggerations were intense, i - - iiit* corner in ."Northern I'acitic stock, which was tlic immediate cause of the crash.
