MRS. MKINLEY GETS UP
Presidents Wife Has Passed the Crisis and
Is Recovering Her Health.

San Francisco, May 20.-Mrs. Nc
Kinleys condition was SO far improved
last evening that she was able to sit
up awhile. The president did not at

nearly all day, only going out for a
short walk just before noon. There
was d general feeling that the crisis
had been passed and that Mrs. McKin-

No definite date has yet been de-
cided 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 a few days.
San Francisco, May 21.-Mrs. Nc
Kinley passed a very good afternoon
yesterday, and the president is very
cheerful over her improved condition.
While no definite date has been set for

WOMAN'S CONFESSION
Solves the Question as to Who 1t
Was That Killed James
Seymour Ayres.
SAYS SHE HERSELF DID THE DEED;
Did 1t to Save Her Honor and Then
Fled from the Room by the
Fire Escape.

Washington, May 21.-At last the
mystery of the death of James Seymour
Ayres is solved-solyed by the confess
sion of the woman who committed the
murder, under circumstances, how
ever, as told by her, that would have
justified her in committing it and an
nouncing it as soon as it was done.
Mrs. BONNIE confessed to Major Syl-
vester, superintendent of police, yes
terday afternoon. She has been under
suspicion for several days. According
to statements Of witnesses at the cor
oner's inquest, she was frequent Wis
itor to Ayres' room. Mrs. BONNIE was
a resident of the Kenmore hotel, where
the murder was committed, and is the
wife of a drummer for a Chicago drug
house. She is about 35 years old.
Confession Was Entirely Voluntary.
Her confession was entirely volun-
tary. At a few minutes past p. M.
yesterday she telephoned for Major
Sylvester, saying that she was coming
to his office, and she appeared there
few minutes afterward When she
reached the office she said she had
statement which She wished to make,
and she was Immediately turned over
to Detective Horne, who took her con-
fession. She said that she was alone
in Ayres' room with him when the
killing took place, and that the shoot
ing was the result of his own miscon-
duct. She stated that Ayres had
drawn the pistol upon her for the pur
pose of making her respond to an i'm
proper proposal which he had made
to her.
At the commencement of the affair,
she said, Ayres had come to her room
in the Kenmore hotel about 2 o'clock
Wednesday morning, and upon the pre-
tense Of being i'll, had gained admis-
sion to her room. He complained of
feeling as if he was going to have a
chill, and asked her to give him some
preventive. She had given him, she
said, a medicine which she had in her
room, and he had then referred to
some differences which they had had in
the past and asked her to come to his
room, where they might quietly talk
the matter over and come to an annie
able understanding. She had agreed
to go to the room, as he had requested,
and he left her room, preceding her to
his own.

Being Much Better.
San Francisco, May 20-The battle
ship Ohio was launched at 1926 from
the shipyard of the Union Iron works.
The condition of Mrs. Mckinley was
so much improved that the president

CATION of congressman from eastern
states, as well as scores of other men,
holding notable positions in the bust

try.
The army transport tug Slocum con-
veyed the presidential party to the
Union Iron Works, leaving the trans
port wharf at 10 a. N. The president
met the employees of the iron works
upon his arrival and was presented
with a beautiful souvenir of the oc-
casion which the men had prepared
for him as gift.
At the launching Miss Barber
niece of Mrs. Mckinley, pressed the
button and started the vessel for the
bar. AS the ship glided down the
ways Miss Helen Deshler smashed the
bottle of champagne which hung from
it's bow and conferred upon the great
fighting machine the name which it is
hereafter to bear in our great navy.
Immediately after the launching Presi-
dent Mckinley returned to the side of
his sueffring wife.

pleasure craft added to the showing
made by the vessels of the navy. The
bay in the vicinity Of the Union Iron

commissioners. The inside position
was occupied by the warships, the
Slocum and the tug Resolute. The
resolute had as passengers the men,
bers of the eastern congressional dele
cation and other distinguished guests.

STORY OF THE DEATH OF AYREs.
His Body Found in His Room, With Three
Bullet Wounds.


Bullet Wounds.
The tragedy which resulted in Ayres'
death was discovered first about $50
o'clock last Wednesday morning, when
his dead body was discovered in his
room at the Kenmore, a small family
hotel Of very moderate prices, situated
not far from the Capitol. The dead
mans full name was James Seymour
Ayres. He was between 20 and 81
years of age, and lived in Port Austin,
Mich, before coming to Washington as
a clerk in the census office. His ia
Their is a man of some standing in Re-
publican state politics in Michigan.
An examination of Ayres' body
showed that he had been shot three
times, one ball entering the left leg,
another the left arm, and the third
penetrating the heart and causing
death. Suicide was the first theory
advanced, but statements from two
witnesses that on the night of the
murder they Lad seen woman de-
scending a fire escape leading from in
front of Ayres' room at the hotel, and
disappear into the parlor of the house,
ended this theory, and the killing
quickly developer into a mysterious
and sensational affair.
