WASHINGTON, Sept 18.—Mrs. Mc- Kinley'a complete collagse is feared by her physician, Dr. itixey, and her friends when the climax of her sorrow comes at the Interaent of the late President in Canton. She has exhibited wonderful strength up to the present, repreasing her grict in a_ perfectly natural way, according to Dr. Rixey, but it Is feared that the continued strain hag been more than she can stand, The departure of Mrs, McKiniey from the White House was full of patho: After preparations had beej. made knelt beside the bed on which she had Spent so many hours of pain, and in a broken voice cried to her devoted niece, Miss Mary Barber, that she would be happler had she never risen from it. Bhe wept silently for a while, but when her nurses alded her to rise she re- mained quiet until {t was time for her to depart upon the last stage of the funeral Journey. It was 7.38) o'clock when she left the White House for the last time. Door- keepers, ushers and other attaches of the building wept, without show of hid- ing their grief, as the stricken woman was led to her carriage. Dr. Rixey and her niece were with her. Miss Barber has been the main dependence of Mrs. McKinley, and since the President was shot she has Hved and selpt by her aunt's side, Mr, and Mrs. Abner McKinley, Dr. ana Mrs. Hermanus Baer, Mrs. Duncan and the Misses Duncan, Miss Helen Me- Kinley, Mr, and Mrs. Barber and Miss Mary and Miss Ida Barber, who have {been In the White House since last {uixtt assembled In the main lobby and entered the closed carriages, prepared for the departure for the depot. Speaking of the alarming feports of Mrs, McKinley's health, Dr. Rixey, who for four years has been her attending \phystctan, said to the correspondent of The World: “Mre, McKinley has not given occa- ston for Immediate alarm, She Is atief- stricken, as any wife who has lost her husband would be. From the first mo- ment of receiving the sad news she has wept coplousy, and this, as every one knows, Is a favorable algn.

Mrs, Barber and her daughter, Miss Mary Barber, appeared in the Red Room, in the name of 3irs. McKinley, who was too seriously Indisposed to be seen.

LONDON, Sept. 18.—Both the Foreign OMice and Colon‘al OMice, after consid- eration of the suggestion that the Duke of Cornwall and York attend the ¢uncral of President McKinley, have decided that the Government should not act, as the shortness of time made It next to impossible to exchange communications and make the necessary arrangements.
