Spoke to Sunday School Dele
gates in Spite of Ban.

Mrs. Carrie Nation and the State

or any feeling any Of the delegates had
ted that nearly every person in the

say And she had much to say and de-
Hvered a rapid fire speech aimed princi-
pally at Governor Stanley.

minutes she offered for sale her photo
graphs and copies of the Smasher's
Mail She did a lively business.
In the evening Mrs. Nation appeared
at the ticket window at the Auditorium

third man, VIM. Rooney, was slightly
hurt by a glancing bullet. Some of the
guards stepped from the car and re-
loaded their pieces. The startled crowd
fell back at the first shot, and a mo-
ment later the guards sprang aboard
the car and were rapidly wheeled from
the scene. Smith and Walsh were hur-
ried away to hospitals for surgical
care, and an angry crowd swarm ed in
the street to curse and denounce the
guardsmen Both died Smith was a

Steamship company's purchase of the
Atlas steamship line and the negotia-
tions with the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe railroad. Albert Ballin, one OF
the Hamburg American directors. IN an
interview just prior to sailing for
Europe said:
The enterprise is so vast that It IS
difficult to give a comprehensive idea
of it. am sorry the plan has become
public, but since it has I'll admit that
the purchase of the Atlas line is only
a part of our general scheme and that
we are negotiating for the control Of
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa fe rail-
road.
Our company owns today 127 ocean
steamers. 1t is the largest steamship
con pany in the world. With the ac-
QUESTION of the railroad to transport
our passengers and freight across this
continent our line viii practically en-
circle the globe, and we viii control
long distance shipping.
We will be able to transport direct
from Hamburg to Hong Kong over our
own lines. We will be able to carry
European products to Oriental markets
much cheaper than by the present
method of transportation. Also the
Asiatic market will be able to get its
products to Europe much cheaper than
it has been able to-"

viewed said.
by the purchase of the Atlas steam
ships the Hamburg American line did
not obtain any concessions on the 18th

GRADUAL RETURN TO HEALTH
Is Expected If No More Sinking
Spells Take Place.

The life of Mrs. Mckinley is still in
the balance At an early hour today the
attending physicians could give no more
assuring information than TO state that
her condition was unchanged There had
been some Improvement during the
hours before midnight. and the anxious
watchers were filed with hope, though
fearful of a relapse The patients vi
tality is at its lowest ebb during the
early morning and not until the critical
time is past can the physicians offer any
words of cheer. Should there be no
sinking spell today and the slight gam
of strength noted last night be main
tanned it is possible that there may be a
gradual return of health. However. the
doctors viii not express anything
stronger than a hope that Mrs. MCk1n-
ley Will recover sufficiently to admit Of
her removal to her home. though they
do not declare this with confidence. At
intervals Mrs. Mckinley has been con-
sciOus and has recognized her husband,
who has remained almost constantly at
her side. He is bowed with sorrow and
his care worn expression is noticeable to
all who see him during his brief walks
in Lafayette park, opposite his temporary
home. He has expressed himself as
deeply touched by the sympathy ex-
tended to him. From every quarter of
the civilized world cablegrams nave
poured in. each message breathing earn
est hope that the wife of the chief ex-
ecutive may be spared.
The president has personally requested
each member of his cabinet to keep all
engagements and not to permit the ill
ness OF his wife to mar the pleasures OF
their trip. They have been loath to do
this however. as all share in the general
sorrow. Secretary Hay. worn with
work and worry remained in his apart
ments all day yesterday. but expects TO
join the other cabinet members in re-
viewing the school children of the city
on NanNess avenue today This was
one of the features Of the weeks pro-
gramme, which was anticipated with
pleasure by President Mckinley and at
his request it will be carried out, though
without his presence.
LAUNCHING WILL TAKE PLACE
According to recent plans the launch
ing Of the hattleship Ohio tomorrow will
take place, bur the president and MEM
bers Of the cabinet will not be there;
there will be no banquet by the citizens
Saturday night and all receptions and
trips that have been in eontemplat ton
have been abandoned. The only public
appearance of the president in San
Francisco, excepting in the neighborhoOd
Of the Scott residence, where he is So
journing. will be when he takes a car
riage to his waiting train on his way
back to the east.
He said that only a sense of duty had
caused him to cancel his many engage
ments. He had desired to visit the
Northwest and expected TO greatly enjoy
his trip through the Yellowstone park
