PRESIDENT AT OGDEN.
farty Enrouteto Washington Pass Through
ogden sunday-President Shakes
Hands With Throne

President Mckinley and party passed
through Ogden Sunday evening en-
route to Washington from San Fran
cisco, which point they left Saturday
forenoon at 10 o'clock Rain fell while
the desert was being crossed, freshen-
ing the air and laying the dust, for
which the party felt grateful. 1t was
feared the ride across the hot desert
might prove injurious to Mrs McKin-
ley, but she appeared better than when
the start was made.
The presidential special arrived at
Ogden at 1923 Sunday evening great
crowd was waiting to catch glimpse
OF the chief executive. As soon as the
train stopped rush for the presidents
car was made. Governor Wells and
Senator Kearns climbed over the iron
railing and entered the car, greeting
the president. Judges Miner and
Bartch, General G. S. Burton, w. G.
Weaver, c. 0, Whittemore, Alma Ed
redge, r. b. Whittemore and Farley p.
NhiiStchocu were ldttr dQInlbJeu 10 the
car.
Governor Wells, while in the car,
presented President Mckinley with a
silken flag, stating that it represented
the patriotism of the state, being made
by Utah people of silk raised in Utah.
President Mckinley accepted the flag,
and expressed his appreciation of the
gift.
After being received by the president,
Governor Wells stepped to the platform
of the presidents car and requested
that no applause be given when the
president appeared, fearing the noise
and excitement might injuriously effect
Mrs. Mckinley. This injunction was
not needed, and the presidents appear
ance created an outburst of enthusiasm.
The president shook hands with all
who could reach him before the train
left, at 7:55. The president informed
Senator Kearns that he would visit
Utah before his term of office expired

KING EDWARD HAS
4 NARROW ESCAPE.
Accident ON Cup Challenger strews Tons of
wreckage About His Feet.


Wreckage About His Feet.
The most dramatic incident In the
history of the American cup occurred
Wednesday, when sudden squall on
the Solent completely wrecked the
challenger, Shamrock Ii, and endan-
gered the life of King Edward and
several distinguished persons, includ-
Ing Sir Thomas Upton. The mishap
occurred at the beginning of race
between the Shamrock / and Shamrock
ii, and in describing it Sir Thomas
Upton said:
We had just begun'to make for the
starting line when a fierce breeze
sprang up. King Edward, Lady Lon
donderry, Mrs. Jameson, Mr.. Watson,
Mr.. Jameson and my self were on deck
hanging on as best we might, for the
challenger was almost at an angle Of
as degrees.
The king started to the bow. Just
as he did so everything collapsed. A
heavy block fell between the two ladies'
and wire rope struck me on .he head
and momentarily stunned me. A sud-
den squall, an unexpected strain, and
everything had given away.
King Edward was half in and half
out of the companion hatchway. What
happened-how all the falling spars
and sweeping sail did not kill or
sweep some one overheard, is more
than know. When came to, saw
the king clamoring over the wreck
age, trying to discover the extent of
the damage, and asking: lis any one
hurt?"
squall came without the slightest
warning and the bowsprit of the chal-
lenger was carried away short The
extra strain thus thrown en- the top
mast proved too much for the SPAR 1t
whipped, broke and doubled off to lee
ward, carrying the whole weight of
the backyard and gear over the side
in terrible tangle. Almost as the
topmast fell the great steel main
mast, weighing more than two tons
and carrying spars and gear weighing
an additional three or four tons,
swayed for moment and then, almost
by miracle, plunged over the side
and into the water with the sound
of breaking wire and tearing gear in
the air
Shamrock |, which came to the re-
lief of the new challenger, was also
caught in the squall and rendered
helpless.
The accident will probably delay the
international yacht race, set for Aug
ust, for several weeks.
