ferer and the enthusiasm was Suppress
ed.
There was no formal ceremonies at the
depot. d-byes were exchanged by
the president cabinet members and 9TH
er members of the party with the friends
who had come to wish them God speed,
and the distinguished travellers boarded
the ferry boat for Oakland which made
special trip for their accommodation.
The carriage containing Mrs, McKin-
ley was driven to the lower deck of the
boat and the curtains partly raised so
that she might obtain a glimpse of the
bay and Golden Gate, and as the steam
er drew out of the slip, hats and hand
+ kerchiefs were waived and as she was
slipping into the stream. the shipping
in the harbor dropped their color salute.
Tumultuous cheers then broke forth on
shore and were carried across the waters
as San Francisco's final farewell to
President Mckinley, his wife and the
accompanying members of his official
family.
At the Oakland mole, where the train
was in readiness, precautions had been
taken to prevent a crowd. The enclos-
ure was carefully roped off. Mrs. Nc
Kinley was tenderly helped out of the
carriage by the president, and when he
made her comfortable in the car, he ap-
peared on the platform waving adieu
to the crowds.
Mrs. Mckinley stood the trip to the
train very we'll. 1t was the first time she
had felt the fresh air since she had ar
rived in San Francisco and it seemed
to do her good. DR.. RiXey said there
were no i'll effects from the excitement
attending her departure.

residence to the Oakland ferry in a
closed carriage over circuitous route

might pass over only smoothly paved
streets, the jarring granite blocks
Which are on many of the streets being
avoided. She was accompanied by the
president, DR.. Rixey and a trained
nurse, the rest of the party proceeding
to the starting point in more direct
