London, June 25. The most that can, be, said of the kiins's condition is that there has beem no apparent change dur ing the past twenty-four hours. The use of nitro-tglycerine' lasit night seems to ' have ttded over the finst danger of collapse from shock. The doctors will not vouchsafe any information concerniinig his pulse or (temperature but it is inferred fromi the tone of the bulletins that nothing seri ously abnormal has manifested itself in this connection. It is explained by medical experts that the attending phy sicians must themselves remain to ig norance of any mischief until fatal symptoms appear, and then they will be perfectly powerless. The situation in this regard is not unlike President McKinley's case. The appearance of high pulse and' high temperature would indicate the disaBearanoe jof the last . vestige of hope. These symptoms tmighrt be preceded ,by a chin-iwhich would be eoually an ominous sign; . While the (bulletins the public are non-committal it is knonrft that the doctors are preparing the royal house- hold for the orst. One of the- king's moat intimate asso ciates asked one of the physicians to day to tell him frankly Just what chance the ktog had. The reply was: "Yesterday I should say about one in three. I am afraid I could not say that today." embers of the palace entourage quote medical opinion to the effect that the king may live a week, .but it is hardly expected that-he will survive un til Sunday. , . It is true as ithe bulletins state, the king had a fairly comifortable day. He takes nourishment in-the form rf milk and oda water and prepared' liquid food. He even is able to listen .to some telegrams of sympathy and; (his spirits have improved considerably. His mind is quite clear when awake and he has had a fair amount of rest. The1 queen has been persuaded rto re lax her vigil somewhat. She has rest ed at brief intervals in an adjoining roam'. Frequent rumors of the gravest de scription have been circulated. One of the most (persistent revived the story that ithe king is suffering from cancer. The king's private secretary, Lord Knollys, denied this, saying the kmghas never had a symptom of cancer and there is no malignant growth whatever in connection with the king's malady. $24,600,000 INSURANCE Oil THE KING'S LIFE New York, June 25. In the event of death of King Edward VII, insurance companies . of ; England will suffer the most staggering (Mow known in this branch of the financial investment. It will cause a loss of tens of millions of dollars to the regularly organized life insurance companies alone. A much greater loss will fall upon financial companies of various other kinds, which have taken heavy risks on tne King ? life at high rates of interest. American life insurance companies, however, will suffer no loss, because in this country, to life . insurance policies l the applicant must establish an insur ' able interest in the person insured. King Edward carries the enormous sum of $3,600,000, placed with English com panies. This is on ipensonal policies, upon which he pays- premiums , out, of his private purse.

According' to Sir Frederick Treves, who performed the operation oh King Edward, and who is himself one of the greatest living sur geons and specialists on abdominal troulbles, the chances of death in cases of perityphlitis where abcesses form, as in that of King Edward, are about one in three. Sir Frederick Treves also that the Period when death, declares is most from the fifth to the eighth day. . iUUAT TUC PUYQIPIAfK . mini i ml. iiiiuiuiniiu HAVE NOW TO FEAR London, June 25. The following statement was made this afternoon on the highest medical authority: "Until the tubes now draining the civity of the abscess have been with drawn it will be impossible to feel cer tain thatf the king will pull through, "What his physicians have now to fear is that peritonitis or hemorrhage may supervene. Again, it is a fact that an abscess due to perityphitis may have a fatal issue without any rwarning symptoms. All the indications are often masked until the post-mortem, and there are many cases on record where the disease was only discovered after death from an extraneous cause, such as an accident. At any rate, the king's grave illness, must invalid him for a long time." London, June 25, 11 p. m .(Bulletin) "The king continues to make satisfac tory progress. His majesty has slept some hours during the day. He com plains very little of discomfort. He is more cheerful and hie wound is doing well." PATTISON FOR GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA Erie, Pa., June 25.
