The pmsldcnt had made huiiled uiiango ments for his depaiture and ilui intj the ' aftirnoon disposed of a large volume of business avvultlng his attention. ' He reached the station unattended a few minutes before the time for the train to Ieao.

What was feaied this morning when Mis. McKlnlej was stricken with a slight ntt.uk of paialy bIb Is tonlsht legarded ns almost a certainty that is, the eaily death of the president's mother. As the day ad vanced she grew gradually woiso and the members of the family felt that she was slowly sinking, although after she fell Into the semi. comatose state early In the day theie was Maicelv mi appreciable change. Inquiries runcernin? her condition are coming fiom all ipiaiters. a Hood of teleciams having staited Immedi ately after thu news of the Illness was flashed over the Afsocluted Picsh wires. Dr. Phillips, the attending physldan, tonight gave the family littlo moie hope than on his earlier lslts He expressed the belief that death was Inevitable from the present Illness and that the only uncettalnty wuh the time when It would ooiur. He thinks the developments of the night will decide the matter. A ehuinre for the better by morning lie would tegaid as un In dication of a temporary rally. In which case deatli would not piolubiy occur for some time. Should the morning condition be foi the woise, he expects thu patient to sink rapidly. The disease, he says, is not primarily paialysls, but senility, the result of old age, which has pro duced the partial parulyslri, Mr Abutr McKlnley said lute to- night that he thought hl.s mother was sinking ranldlv and ho fears the end Is not far off, SKETCH OP Him LIFK. Mis. McKinlev came of the race of hardy pioneers who laid the founda tion of the American republic. She was Miss Nancy Campbell Allison, and was born at New Lisbon, O., In 1S09. Her family originally came from Kng land to Vlrclnla. thence to Pennsyl vania, and finally settled permanently In Ohio. She was married to 'William McKlnley, sr Jan. 6, 1S2!). and was llvlnir In n two-story frame house still standing near Nlles, O., when her ills, tlngulshed son was born, Jan. 29, 1SI3. The removal from Nlles to Mahoning county was prompted by a desire to give her children an academic educa tion. Mrs. McKlnley wus a woman of steillng qualities, frugal, industrious, pious nnd proud of her son. Her pa triotism was ptrons; and passionate, and her Intellectual power was truly wonderful. Her husband died Nov. 24, 1M)2. Like the mothers of Oartleld and Ciiant. she lived and rejoiced to see her son president of his and her country. When President McKlnley entered con-gie-.s over twenty yeais ago he was away from his mother much of the time until he retired to make the can vass for governor In 1S91. During his service fiom 1S9J to 1S9G as governor, ho went to Canton frequently to visit his mother, and he was at her homo fiom Januaiy, 1MM1. until lie went to Washington last March. Previous to enteilng public life the president was always located near ills parents and spent much time with them. MR.

The qupftlon r.s to ownership of the Stclnert clip for the coming season also resulted In a victory for Irwin, 'the pro visions goveri lug tho cup soiles state that nnvt-n gumes shall bo played hettveen the clubs llntshlng first nrd second. In the series between Toronto nnd Syracuse, Toronto won three and Svracu.se one. The next game resulted lu a tie and bad weather put fuither playing out of tho question. The nti"stlon of the t lection of umpires for the coming senson was left to Mr. Powers. Hefore adjourning the mar,n..ts unanimously re-electisl Mr. Powers us president for the coming season. This li his sixth consecutive term. The following were elected to srrve on the board of directors: P. T. Powers, K. P. Bojrert, Jarres Prank II n C. T. rihean nnd C.eonre W. Cameron. Messrs. Irwin, Hheati nnd Hotel t wem ilccted to serve on the committee- on amendments lo the constitution. The delegates to go to Buffalo to con fer with the Western leigue representa tives will be ohosen by Mr. Powers later. Only a part of that pot Hon of tho foregoing dispatch relating to the Scran ton franchise Is cortect. The Tribune is nblo to state authoritatively that the Scranton owners havo not agreed to sell to whatever purchaser the league may procure. The Bcrantoln owners niuned their price to Pieslrent Powers, but they will sell to the proposed local stock com pany If the latter's ifromoters will accept nn option and make a reasonable cash payment a few weeks hefore the season opens Neither Mr Hrooks nor Mr. Simpson will agree to take active part In the man agement of the stock company, but they will subscribe for stock. It Is believed bv those who favor such a company that 100 shares of stock at ?V) each will purchase the francihlse, pay eirly season expenses and more than provide against the sea son's losses which will be many hun dreds of dollars Ies than last year if Simda games are played. The Sc-ranton club's futum. however, will depend on whether Wilkes-Haim continues. If Newark should secure the Scranton franchise Wllkrs-Hnru- would stick: If anv other cltv gets It Wilkes. Harre would he forced to quit. MORE RIOTING AROUND PRAGUE Serious Collisions Occur Hctvvccn the Polico nnd Largo .Mobs in Smichow nnd Ziskovv-A Patrol Pirns, with Pntnltrcct.
