fan interview with representative Of the as
ssociated press few moments ago. Attorney
sGensral McVeagh said there were no new
grounds for hope and the president could not
last long In his preasant weak condition. He
lis weaker now than at any time, and the at

mind of the president has been perfectly clear
all day. There is no reason now to believe he
will have another chill. The attorney general

ROBBED DEATH OF ITS TERRoRs,

The moan of the restless ocean mingled with
the sobs of the loved ones, as the lamp of
life fickered and went cut forever.
Nearly everyone around the president
clung to hope to the last, and refused to
believe the approach of death till the shadow
deepened and the destroyer's presence could be
no longer unfelt. Flags hang at half mast
