TO TAKE HER TO CANTON.
Mn. Mckinley WIN Recuperate ut tho Old
Home Among Familiar Friends-Og-
don Route ON Return Trip.

San Francisco, May 21.-Although
Mrs. McKinley's condition has greatly
improved, her physicians have named
a week or ten days as the shortest
possible time in which she can gather
strength to make the trip across the
continent. The immediate members
of the presidential party will there
fore remain here for that length Of
time though it is probable that the
others will leave for the east during
the present week. They will go direct
from San Francisco to Canton. At
Mrs. McKinley's old home, surrounded
by familiar faces and with every COM
fort it is expected that her recupera-
ton will be more rapid than if she
went to Washington. President Nc
Kinley spends much of each summer
at Canton, and the arrival there will
be not far from the date of his regu-
lar annual visit. He will probably pro-
coed Immediately to Washington after
leaving Mrs. Mckinley, returning to
Canton as soon as the more pressing
public business has been disposed of.
Miss Mary Barber, Mrs. McKinley's
niece, will go with Mrs. Mckinley to
Canton.
The Ogden route will be taken. Gov.
Gage has been informed by the pres
ident that no stops of any length
would be made at Sacramento or else
where en- route. The president will
not leave the train, though he may
speak briefly from the rear platform
at one or two important cities.

AMERICAN PEACE SOCIETY.
The SecretSry Makes His Report ut the
Annual Meeting-The Conflict In
South Africa.

Boston, May 2o.-The principal bust
cess at the annual meeting of the
American Peace society, held here
yesterday, was the report of Secre-
tary Benjamin Trueblood, which con-
tanned an account of the work of the
organization during the year. The
report contained these words: 1.-THE
conflict in South Africa still goes on,
and is proving over and over again, if
further proof were needed, the ap-
palling wickedness and utter insanity
Of war in our times. The whole
country has been laid waste, it's
homes burned and blown to pieces.
The Boer women and children by
thousands are shut up in military
camps, where they are suffering un-
told hardships, and many of them dy-
ing from bad food, exposure and dis
ease. To Briton and Boer alike the
war has proved to be a veritable he'll"

FINANCES OF HAVANA.
Capital of Cuba Has an Indebtedness Of
S12,235,931-City Revenues Need
to BE Increased.

Havana, May 21.-The commission
which was appointed to investigate
and report on the condition of the
finances of Havana says the indebted
ness of the city is $12,235,931. The
average cost of the city expenses out
side of public instruction and some
other items which are betrayed by
the state are $2,25O,OOO. The report
says that after making all due allow
ances the taxable income of Havana
property should be $1O,OOO,OOO, or ST.
100000 per year. The water rates
also should yield about $4,000 in
stead of $4,000 as at present. This
estimate is based on the fact that at
present only 1850 houses take water
when there ought to be 10000.

SHUTS OUT TYPEwRITERs.
Turkey win Not Have These Modern Ma
chimes Because the Writers Of Seditious
Documents Couldn't Be Traced.

Constantinople, May 19.-The Gus
toms authorities have prohibited the
entry of typewriters into Turkey,
and 200 machines now in the custom
house have been ordered returned to
the consignor. The authorities have
taken the characteristic attitude that
there is no distinct feature about
typewriting by which authorship
could be recognized or a person using
a machine be traced. Consequently
the government holds that anyone is
able to put in type seditious writings
without fear of compromising him
self. Photographic paste and fluid
are also prohibited for similar rea-
sons. The embassies are making rep
reservations upon the subject with
the view Of inducing the Turkish
government to take a more reasonable
attitude.

THE CRISIS PASSED.
Mrs. AcKinley's Condition So I'm
proved That She Can Sit Up.
An Injection Of Saline Directly into the
Blood Brought About the Rally-Party
WIN Soon. Leave Direct for
the East.

San Francisco, May 20.-Mrs. Nc.
Kinley's condition was so far i'm.
proved yesterday evening that she
was able to sit up for awhile. This
welcome news was given out shortly
after five o'clock. Gen. Shafter called
On President Mckinley and while
they were talking word came down
stairs that Mrs. Mckinley was sitting
up. The president at once asked to
be excused and hurried to the sick
room. The anxiety caused by Satur-
day nights bulletin stating that Mrs.
McKinley's temperature was higher
was dispelled at ten o'clock yesterday
morning when Secretary Cortelyou
announced that she had passed COM
Portable night and that the slight
fever noted Saturday night had sub
sided. The president did not attend
church, but remained at home nearly
all day, only going out for short
walk just before noon. There was
q general feeling that the crisis had
been passed and that Mrs. Mckinley
would continue to gain strength. No
definite date has yet been decided
upon as to when the president will
start for the national capital, but it
is hoped that Mrs. Mckinley will be
able to travel within few days.
Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock
stated that he now considers Mrs. Nc
Kinley out of danger.
1t is learned that the rally which
marked the turning point in her ILL
ness came Immediately after treat
ment on Thursday which included a
saline injection directly into the
blood. Her pulse showed quick inn
proveraent and she continued to inn
prove all day yesterday. Leading
physicians who have been informed Of
the course Of treatment which. has
been pursued not only entertain the
hope, but have confidence in the pre-
diction, that the patient will have
better health in the future than she
has had for many years.
The newspapers have established
temporary headquarters for their re-
porters in the neighborhood of the
Scott residence and vigil is main
tanned night and day. Very few facts
concerning the sick room are given
out, however, except the statements
in the official bulletins,
which are invariably brief.
