AL|TT.EM MORE HOPEFUL
IS MRS.. M'k|NLtY'S CASE.
HER PHYSICIANS. AFTER CONSUL
TATION, GIVE COMPLETE STATE
MENT OF THE
CHARACTER OF HER ILLNESS.
YESTERDAY WAS HER BIRTHDAY
AND MANY TOKENS OF ES-
TEEN WE'RE RECEIVED.

WASHINGTON, June S.-Mrs. Nc
Kinley's physicians were in consulta-
ton about two hours to-day, and sub
sequently a very complete statement of
the true character of the illness from
which she has been suffering was is
sued. Such a statement has been
promised from time to time, and while
in San Francisco it was said that the
President desired a fuller announce
ment of the nature of Mrs. McKinley's
illness given to the public. But for
one reason or another t-has been with
held up to the present time. The bull
letin is as follows:
Mrs. McKinley's illness has a
blood infection, resulting from perios-
tits of the index finger (bone felon),
which began in Los Angeles and
which was promptly treated by incis-
ion. The subsequent condition of ex-
haustion was due to the same blood
infection, associated with a severe
diarrhoea. She improved, however,
and was brought home in comfort and
without loss of strength. The principal
cause of anxiety in her case since her
arrival in Washington has been an
acute ~endocarditis inflammation OF
the lining membrane of the hearth,
inolving the mitral valve, the result of
the same blood infection. This does
not appear to be progressive and there
has been an improvement in the diar-
rhoea and in her general condition.
Mrs. McKinley's case at the present
time presents a hopeful aspect"
The statement that Mrs. McKinley's
hopeful aspect is the best word that
has come from the sick room since
the arrival of the distinguished pa
tient in Washington. The President
feels considerably encouraged. To-
day was Mrs. McKinley's birthday,
and many beautiful flowers and gifts
were left at the White House for her.
The Belgian Charge d'Affaires called
at the White House to-day and present
ed a personal message to the President
from the King of Belgium expressing
sympathy for the President and inquir-
ing after Mrs. McKinley's health.
DR.. Rixey left the White House at
11:20 tonight after a visit that extend
ed over two hours. DR.. Rixey said:
Mrs. McKinley's condition Is about
the same as reported in this mornings
bulletin. She has rested very comfort
ably to-day. There has been no mater
ial change, though possibly there has
been a barely ~perceptible improvement.
She is now sleeping soundly."

SHE IS ACCOMPANIED BY A son OF
EX-SECRETARY OF STATE
FISCHER.

LONDON, June 8.-Mrs. Louis Botha,
wife of the Boer commandant general,
arrived at Southampton this morning
on board the British steamer Dunvegan
Castle from South Africa. She refused
to grant an interview, but a son of ex-
Secretary of State Fischer, who accom-
panied her, informed a representative
of the Associated Press that Mrs. Botha
was going straight to London and later
would proceed to Holland and Belgium,
but that the date of her departure for
the continent had n been fixed. Mr..
Fischer was unable to confirm or deny
the report that Mrs. Botha had come to
Europe on a peace mission. He was re-
leased on parole in order that he might
accompany her.
LONDON, June 8.-The British war

AMERICAN METHODS Of
TRAINING AND RIDING
ARE CONFESSED TO BRITISH NEws.
PAPERS TO BE SUPERIOR TO
THEIR OWN.
THE DERBY AND THE OAKS.
WENT TO HORSES CENTRALIZED II y
AMERICANS AND RIDDEN BY :
AMERICAN JOCKEYS.

LONDON, June S.-London is stir
talking of the derby and the Oaks. The
discussion of the relative merits OF
American and British methods OF train
ing and riding has broken out anew. 1t
must be confessed that the British COM
ments are generally very fair. They
sorrowfully admit the superiority of
America on every point. The Sporting
Times says:
The derby has been won by a French
horse and IN American horse: but never
until Wednesday was it won by a horse
that had other than an english Jockey
in the saddle. Whatever our horses
might be. the supremacy of our jockeys
was deemed complete. But that fallacy
is now exploded. Thus, two records
were broken. viz: A victory for a jock
ey who was not a subject of the Kins
and the running of the race in the fast
est time OF record"
The darby was an anglo-American
triumph, but not so the Oaks, which
was American pure and simple. 1t is a
fact that rivalry ran high in America
last year, between Mr.. Whitney and Mr..
keene. almost amounting to bad blood,
when a colt of Mr.. Whitney's beat Olym-
plan for the futurity. Under the cir
cumstances IL is not a little singular
that Mr.. Whitney should nave won the
derby and Mr., Keene the Cakes. rhe
derby running of Olympian told OAR
ling he had the Oaks in his pocket with
Cap and Bells ii. TO add to the Amer
lean triumph the Tammany Chieftain
Croker ran third in the Oaks. while an
American jockey rode the winner OF the
derby and the first three in the Oaks
were ridden by jockeys of that nation
atty. Henry, who was imported by Mr..
Keene. who brought Sloan TO this coun-
try, has made a rare beginning"
The papers have printed New York
dispatches saying that Mr.. Whitney
would take v~olodyovski to America, but
he cannot do that. He has simply
leased the horse for $4,000 cash and
half of what the horse might win at
three and four years of age after which
he was to be returned.
Fabulous sums were won on Cap and
Bells lis victory In the Oaks. The
commissioners had literally unlimited
orders to back the flly as long as a
decent price was obtainable and every
American, man and woman that saw
Foxhall Keene for a week was advised
to back the horse.

PARIS, June 8.-The sensation of the
week has been the arrest of Madame
Monnier, a rich, misery land owner of
the ~neighborhood of Poitiers, and her
son, a former sub-prefect of the depart
ment of Vienne and a leader of Poitiers
society, on the charge of incarcerating
Mile. Blanche Monnier, daughter of
Madame Monnier, for twenty-five years

The police were anonymously notified
of the woman's detention, entered the
house and found Mile. Monnier shut up
in a room in darkness, lying on a mat
tress, stark naked and so emaciated that
she appeared to be a living skeleton.
The room was covered with filth, bones.
refuse, food, worms, rats and all other
kinds of vermin. The unfortunate wo-
man, who had partially lost her reason,
was taken to a hospital. 1t was thought
she would die, but she is o improv-
ing. Twenty-Five years ago she was a
beautiful brunette and fell in love with
a lawyer without means. Her mother
disapproved of their love and confined
her in the room which she has only re-
Gently left. The son, after his arrest,
pleaded that he acted as he did on ac-
count of filial piety and that the mother
was responsible. The lawyer died in
1885.
There was another dramatic develop
ment in the ease to-day. Madame Mon
nier died in prison of heart disease. The
gravity of hef crime was brought home
to her at the judges exaination Thurs
day. She became ill and died suddenly
in the inirmary Of the prison this morn
ing.

An INTERNATIONAL BANK
WITH BILLION CAPITAL
rs THE GIGANTIC ENTERPRISE IN
WHICH j. PIERPONT MORGAN
is SAID TO BE ENGAGED.
THE BIGGEST IN THE WORLD.
WOULD Make THE BANK OF ENG
LAND LOOK LIKE A FINAN-
GIL PIGMY.

NEW YORK, June S.-According to
the London correspondent OF the
World, it is reported there that j. p.
Morgan is engaged in arranging for
the establishment of a great Anglo
American bank with a capital of ST.
600, OO0, 1000.
1t is said that it isproposed' to abol-
ish all of the principal financial agen-
cies and banks already engaged in
Anglo-American business.
The proposed institution. it is said,
is intended to be the principal agency
for the already vast and rapidly grow
ing banking transactions between
Europe and America.
Mr.. Morgan us understood to have
associated with him in the stupendous
undertaking not only the principal
capitalists who aided in the organiza-
ton of the United States Steel Cor
poration, but also the R~othschilds.
Locally, the World says:
Several times since the panic of May
it has been reported in Wall street that
Mr.. Morgan intended to organize a
bank with 81, 900, 00O, 900 capital.
These reports have been invariably de-
MED at the offices of ]. P. Morgan &
Co.
The creation of a bank with a cap
italization of a billion dollars is an
undertaking of a nature SO colossal
that nothing approaching it has ever
been limited at before.
The aggregate of the capitalizations
of the ~sixty-four national banks in
Greater New York is barely 500, 600, 900.
Two banks only are capitalized at $10,-
000,0 Doc each-the National City and the
National Bank of Commerce. The great
est bank in the world, the Bank of Eng
land, has a capital of 1852 900 pounds
sterling, or about $72, 765, 900. The Bank
Of France has a capital of $182, 500 900
francs, or about $36, SOC, 900. The COM
bined capitalizations of the Bank of
France, the Deutche Bank of Berlin, the
Bank of Spain, the Bank of England
and the Banque Imperiale Ottomans, the
government bank of Turkey, falls far
short of ST. 900, 0O0, 900.
When it was reported last month that
Mr.. Morgan intended to organize a bank
in this city with a capital of S100, 900 900
the project was declared to be imprac-
ticable by conservative banking men
because of the national banking laws
which impose a tax on the capitaliza-
ton OF such institutions.
August Belmont, the New York rep
resentative of the Ro~thschilds, who, &C
cording to the Boston despatch, are as
ISOLATED with Mr.. Morgan in the vast
banking scheme, is not at his home in
Hampstead, L. l., and nothing could
be learned in New York city concerning
the rumored organization of the MAN.
moth bank.
