AguinaIdo Is Coming.

Aguinaldo will probably come to the
United States early next fall. He has
already informed General Macarthur
of his desire to visit this country and
wants to leave not later than Sep
TENDER Is, when conditions in the ISL
ands will permit his unconditional re-
lease from custody. Reports from
Macarthur show that Aguinaldo Is
now permitted to have a large amount
of liberty, but until civil government
is inaugurated it is not probable that
he will be allowed to have perfect
freedom.
Aguinaldo's explanation for wanting
to visit the United States is that he
would like to study American institu-
tons and the English language, with
a view to benefitting his country on
his return. He desires to take up the
study of economic and political ques-
tions in the United States.
The federal party of the Philippines
held a convention several weeks ago

eral societies in the islands.

Frederick Unpopular.

New York, May 28,-There is no doubt,
the London correspondent of the Herald
thinks, that Mr.. Broderick, the secretary
OF state for war, is not popular with the
British army. 1t is learned from talk in
the military clubs that no less than 1000
officers have sent in their papers to the
war office In military circles it is the only
topic of conversation. None of these mill
tary men believe Mr.. Brodericl< will be
able to realize new army scheme. The
recruiting out look is black, indeed.

PRESIDENTIAL PARTY RETURN
MRS. MKINLEY STRONGER.
Can Make the Journey Safely-Im-
mense Crowds Gathered to See the
Party Depart-No Formal Cere-
monies at Depot.

San Francisco, May 26.-The pres
idential party, after a soJourn OF
nearly two weeks in this city, left for
Washington a few minutes after 10
o'clock this morning. The physicians
in attendance on Mrs. Mckinley held
their last consultation, and after they
had announced their decision that
Mrs. Mckinley was strong enough to
endure the transcontinental journey,
preparations for the departure were
rapidly made. Mrs. Mckinley seemed
elated at the prospect of soon being
at home. She was conveyed from the
Scott residence to the Oakland ferry
in a closed carriage over circuitous
route, which was chosen so that the
invalid might pass over only smoothly
paved streets, the Earring basalt
blocks which are laid on many streets
being avoided. She was accompanied
by the president, Dr. Rixey and q
trained nurse, the rest of the party
proceeding to the starting point in a
more direct way.
An immense crowd had assembled
at the ferry depot of the Southern
Pacific, the wide expanse afforded by
the junction Of Market and East
streets being solid mass of human
ity, through which the police with dir.
fculty kept open a passageway for
the president and his party. Heads
were uncovered as the carriage in
which Mrs. Mckinley rode ap-
preached, and there was a visible eff
fort to refrain from an outburst Of
applause as the vehicle, with drawn
curtains, drove slowly through the
throng. All respected the frail condi-
ton of the sufferer and enthusiasm
was suppressed.
There were no formal ceremonies at
the depot. Goodbyes were exchanged
by the president, cabinet members
and other members of the party with
the friends who had come to wish
them God speed, and the distinguished
travellers boarded the ferryboat Oak
land, which made a special trip for
their accommodation The carriage
containing Mrs. Mckinley was driven
onto the lower deck of the boat and
the curtains partly raised, so that she
might catch a glimpse Of the bay and
Golden Gate.
AS the steamer drew out Of the slip
hats and handkerchiefs were waved.
and as 1t swung clear into the stream
the shipping craft in the harbor dipped
their colors In salute. Tumultuous
cheers then broke forth on shore and
were borne across the waters as San

Mckinley, his wife and the accom-
panying members Of his official fam
lily.
