STANDS TRYING STRAIN
DOCTOR THINKS MRS. M'KIN-
LEY WILL NOT COLLAPSE.
Believes She Will Be Able to Go
Through State Funeral
Ceremony.

Washington, Sept. 16.-Mrs. McKin-
ley has stood the strain of the trying
ordeal following the death of the pres
ident, without breaking. down and her
physician, DR.. Rixey, is encouraged
to believe that she will go through
the state ceremonial without collapse.
The half hour she spent beside the
coffin on the train this morning was
followed by period of depression
but Dr. Rixey induced her to sleep
this afternoon. Now that she has
gone through with the trials and
fatigues of yesterday and today those
nearest to her feel there is little SER
ious danger of immediate collapse.
Their dread is for the future, when
the nerve tension of the present or
deal is over. and when the widow is
back alone in the old house at Can
ton, with the food of reflection and
realization that must come upon her.
