PRESIDENTIAL VISIT.
Illness of Mrs, Mckinley Delays Com
mitteee Appointments.

During the past week or two the
question Of appointing appropriate
committees for the reception and en-
tertainment Of President Mckinley and
party, in addition 10 what has already
been done in that line, has been under
consideration. But as yet the officers OF
the state and city have done nothing
in that direction, The reason for nom
action Is found In the fact that Mrs
McKinley's health has been such as TO
make Il question whether or not the
Presidential party would visit Salt Lake
at all
Governor Wells was asked this morn
ing whether there was any truth In the
statement published by the Herald TO
the effect that be and Mayor Thompson
we're unable TO agree on the names OF
an executive committee for the recep-
ton Of President Mckinley. Gov. Wells
was quite emphatic IN stating that there
was not word OF truth In the article;
from beginning TO end he styled 1t as
fake" pure and simple. When asked
II there was any reason for delaying
the appointment he said .he only rea-
son was that he and Mayor Thompson
felt that Mrs. McKinley's Illness might
cause some change In the Presidents
itinerary. For this reason they had
deferred selecting n committee but as
soon as II was known that the Prtsi-
dents original plans would be carried
out. he and the mayor would name Il
without any further delay The event
was three weeks OF yet and he said
there would be ample time 20 arrange
all the details.
Gov. Wells has received word from
Senator Kearns that he will arrive here
on Thursday mornings train.
