MRS. M'KINLEYS SICKNESS.
Presidents Wife Taken to San Francisco
For Treatment.

San Francisco, May 13.-The sudden
illness of Mrs. Mckinley has caused an
unexpected change in the itinerary of
President Mckinley. He arrived in this
city quietly this afternoon, several hours
ahead of the time scheduled. The state OF
Mrs. McKinley's health was such this
morning that the President decided to
leave Del Monte and bring his wife to this
city Immediately, to the home Of Henry
T. Scott, where she could have complete
rest for few days and where specialist
could be consulted if necessary.
Mr.. Cortelyou, when asked about Mrs.
McKinley's condition, stated that there
was nothing alarming in her present indls-
position, and that perfect quiet and rest
for few days would restore her to her
usual health. 1t was tlr' impression, how
ever, of those who saw Mrs. Mckinley
that she is seriously inlisposed, aud that
her present state may resllt in an entire
change of the Presidents programme.
AT O'Clock tonight DR.. Rixey made
the following statement
"Mrs. Mckinley stood the trip from
Del Monte much better than | expected.
Her condition is not serious. She will
stay here at least a week and have perfect
rest. think by that time she will be
able to continue the journey. She has
been gaining strength all afternoon.

Washington Relics Returned.

Washington, May 13.-A conference
was held today at the Department of JUS
tice with Solicitor General Richards re-
garding the return of the Washington
relics to the Lee family. General Fitzhugh
Lee, Miss Mary Gusts Lee, with power
of attorney from her brother, George Will
lam Gusts Lee, the heirs to the relics were
present, together with Richard Rathbun
and Mr.. Clark, of the Smithsonian Insti-
tuition. 1t was decided that the relics will
be returned tomorrow. President McKin-
ley wrote letter before leaving Washing
ton, directing that this be done. The
relics were removed from Arlington in
1862 since which time they have been in
possession of the United States govern
ment, but the government in the opinion
of Solicitor General Richards never has
acquired title to them.
