JUST HOLDING HER OWN.
MRS. MKINLEY'S PHYSICIANS REPORT
HER CONDITION UNCHANGED

Washington June 7.-Dr. Rixey made this
statement as he left the White House at 1890
o'clock tonight:
Mrs Mckinley is now resting comfortably
Her condition shows no change as compared
with the situation announced in this morning s
bulletin She has not lost any ground, nor, on
the other hand. has there been any perceptible
improvement She is just the same as when we
saw her this morning.
The morning bulletin was as follows:
Mrs McKinIey's physicians state that her con-
dtion is about the same as reported yesterday
There has been no material change in the last
twenty-four hours.
An examination OF Mrs. McKinley's blood,
made under the direction of the attending physi-
clans it is Sid gave negative results. there
being evidence of blood poisoning. Various
examinations have been made TO determine the
character of her Illness. The blood taken
from her arm last Tuesday.
DR. Rixey. when asked regarding the result Of
the rnicroscoDic examination Of the patients
blood said he had nothing 10 say on the sub
ject ard that if anything was given out II
would be after a consult9tion Of the three phy-
sicians He said there had been no unfavorabie
developments to-day Some apprehension has
been felt as 10 the possible unfaVorable effect or
the warm weather put heaNy ram zen t ~
DAY bringing lower temperature. and Inuch
satisfaction was expressed at the White House
at the temporary relief. Mrs Mckinley ordi-
narily suffers little from the heat Of the sum
mer in Washington, but the possible effect OF II
at this time in view OF her low vitality and the
necessity for guarding against anything in the
nature Of q sinking spell or a drain on her
strength. caused soTae anxiety.
The complaint from which Mrs. NICK Kinley sur
fered in San Francisco IS not entirely checked
hut il is said to be under better control now.
Despite some reports 10 the contrary, II ls De
clared emphatically at the White House that
she has not grown worse.
The President saw no callers this evening. At

effect of preventing the independence Of Cuba
ana IN reality establish a protectorate or suze-

In reply / beg to state that the amendment
was carefully prepared with the object of avoid
ing any possible idea that by the accomplish
ment thereof the Constitutional Convention
would thereby establish a protectorate or suze-
rainty, or In any manner whatsoever compromise
the independence sovereignty of Cuba. and
speaking for myself. ii seems impossible that
such an Interpretation can be given to the
clause
believe that the amendment should be con-
sidered whole and it ought to be clear on
reading il that fits we'll defined purpose is to
secure and safeguard Cuban independence. and
set forth at a clear idea of the friendly dis
position OF the United States toward the Cuban
people and the express intention on their part
to aid them if necessary in the maintenance OF
said independence.
These are my ideas and. although you say.
I cannot speak for the entire Congress, my be
lief is that such purpose was we'll understood
