Washington, Aug. 5.-For several
" weeks the wife of President Wilson has
been in the shadow of death, and while
she was conscious at late hour to-
night. hope for her recovery has been
abandoned.
While the President himself, with
characteristic courage, has apparently
been giving himself up TO the settle
mcnt of the grave problems thich re-
Gently have faced the government,
every moment outside his official work
for weeks has been spent at Mrs. Will
sons bedside.
DR.. Grayson has called in several
specialists recently, but apparently to
10 avail, and to-day Mrs. Wilson's two
daughters. who have been away from
Washington, Mrs. Francis Bowes Sayre
and Miss Margaret Wilson, have been
called to her bedside. She lapsed into
unconsciousness at this evening, and
the end then was believed to be near,
hat she recovered consciousness at
e:to. shortly after which the President
therefore. was able TO take short ride
fer the air.
II was while sitting beside his wife
his constant helpmate and adviser, thai
the President wrote his message to the
Eurorean crowned heads, appealing to
them to stay their conflict and discuss
peace.
Only those in closest touch with the
President have known Of the severe
et.ain under which he has been during
the last fortnight Not only the press
of domestic legislation and appoint
mcnts, but the burden of direction for
the relief Of Americans abroad and the
precautions for preservation Of stable
financial conditions at home have
fallen upon him.
During the last days of the Mexican
crisis the President was practically
without a moments rest Weeks be-
fore that Mrs. Wilson, worn by her
duties as hostess, suecumbed to com
bination of nervous prostration and
Bright's disease. Every hour that the
President could get from his trying
labors he spent at her bedside.
During his fight in the Senate on the
Werburg and Jones appointments and
while he WAS averting a strike on nine
t. eight railroads, the President was
constantly apprehensive at Mrs. Will
sons steadily failing condition. He
refused, nevertheless, to permit any
