New England. 1t was said some time

of United States ambassador Hays to
use his summer home in the Adiron-
dacks, but this is denied at the white
house. 1t is stated positively the pres
ident as yet has given no consideration
to the question where he will spend the
heated term. He will remain at the
white house until congress adJourns
and leave for whatever place he may
select as suitable Immediately thereaf-
ter. Should congress remain here until
the heat becomes very oppressive IL is
entirely probable hat Mrs. Mckinley
may leave Washington before the pres
ident goes. 1t is definitely announced
at the w~hitehouse today hat w. ]. CAL
