THE PRESIDENT
Attends to Social and Business
Matters at Frisco.
The Homeward Trip to The Capital
Will Begin, Today.
Journey will Be leisurely Made. Subject "a
s.. Mrs Mckinley's Health.

San Francisco, May 24.-Mrs. Nc
Kinley continues to improve and no
change in the previously announced
program Of the Presidents movement
is likely to be made.
This morning, President Mckinley
took breakfast at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. George +. Morse. where he met a
few friends of Mrs. Morse, his niece.
The remainder of the forenoon was de-
voted to the consideration of affairs of
state.
At noon the consular corps was re-
ceive at the Scott residence and after
luncheon the President attended re-
ception by the Sons and Daughters of
the Revolution and the Loyal Legion
at the Palace hotel.
At its conclusion the President was
driven to the United States transport
dock where hes boarded n tug and
crossed the bay to Oakland. Crowds of
school children lined along the side
walks of Oakland. Each boy and girl
carried an American flag and the
Presidents welcome was extremely en-
thusiastic.
On returning to this city the Presi-
dent proceeded directly to his home
where he remained during the evening
quietly with Mrs. Mckinley. resting
for. the homeward trip which will be-
gin. tomorrow.
Secretary Cortelyou, today made the
following statement concerning the
plans of the President:
.'The departure for Washington, Sat
urday morning, will depend upon q
conference of the physicians relative
to Mrs. McKinley's condition. This
conference will be held at, noon. today.
If they decide that Mrs. Mckinley is
strong enough to stand the trip the
start will be made, as scheduled and
there will be no stop over until Wash
ington is reached. The President does
not intend to leave his train. No side
trips will be made not even to Salt
Lake or Denver.
The earnest desire of the President
and Mrs. Mckinley is to return TO the
White House as soon as possible. The
trip will not be made. however. on
rapid time. but in rather n leisurely
fashion. in order to lessen the burden
for Mrs. Mckinley. The two trained
nurses who have been in attendance
upon Mrs. Mckinley will accompany
her to Washington"
