The King Insisted on Close Per- sonal Supervision of All the Details of the Coronation--De- scribing His Sensations to the Doctors. London, June 26.--It is known the king has been critically ili for more than a week. The wundilice of his mq j is ve ve, the operation Jo om a. The following i= an authentic account of the origin of attacks The king had been in fairly good health and spirits until June 13th. He was sired from the continu- ous round of functions, and extremely nervous over the many weeks of bad weather, which had spoiled many of his plans. Sir Francis Laking, whe had been paying close attention to his majesty, for several days, warned the king not to undertake the ardu- ous programme at Aldershot on June 15th and 16th, but to rest in prepar ation for the great strain of this week. The king, however, persisted in sticking to the programme, and, moreover, insisted on close personal' supervision of all the details of the coronation. It was this interference that wore out the endurance of lord Carrington, the lord chamberlin, and caused him to retire during the heavy downpour at Aldershot, soon after the king.g ar- rival on June 14th, This completed the royal discomforture and there fol- lowed what is described as a fainting fit. The king simply collapsed sud: denly in mind and body. He soon ral- lied, and describing his sensations to the doctor who was first summoned : "T felt as if two heavy hands had sud- denly been placed on my shoulders |and crushed me down.' "here was also a slight chill and a t attack of cholera morbus. That 4 on Saturday, and the king was to bed and remmined there until ) when he was considerably Mer and was taken in a carriage to Windsor. The symptoms of the twitch- ing of the muscles of the face alarmed Sir Francis Leaking, and Sir Thomas Bar! the English specialist in par- alyt ections was summoned. What has described as a light strove of ¥ gis, on Tuesday afternoon, was y ver; light but, the patient was very weak physically and rather dull mentally. Sir Thomas Barlow re- mained with the king every moment when he was within doors, and in his briei drives in an enclosed carriage. Jt became a serious P iblem how to control his majesty's mental condition for the conviction seized the King that he was fated sever to wear the British crown, in other words, that the prophecy would be fulfilled that he would reign, but would never be crowned. He incessantly studied his own symptoms, insis that the doe- tors take his tempefature frequently, and brooded in a state of low despair over his condition, Nevertheless, he gained strength after Wednesday, and by careful dieting the doctors hoped he would be able to undergo Thurs- day's ceremony, provided all interven- ing engagements were cancelled. It was really guainst the physician's advice that the kin returned to Lon don on Monday. reason for in sisting was that such a radical change in the plans would cause alarm among the people. Not a word had been printed in any paper in England to the effect that his illness was in the slightest degree serious. On the oth er hand all the king's entourage calmly and flatly denied that his con- dition was anything but good. It was the excitement of Monday's great popular welcome, as much as anything, 'which caused a revival of the serious abdominal trouble. The cholera morbus symptoms had well nigh (disappeared, but there remained sufficient weakness or irritation to set up inflammation of the vermiform ap- pendix, and, yesterday morning, there was o fully developed case of appen- dicitis. A consultation was speedily held, and it was quickly decided that the coronation ceremonies could not take place at present and that a prompt operation was the only course available to save th, king's life. This decision was acted ent with the utmost speed. The public were notified of the postponement, announcement of which fell on the city like a bolt from the blue sky and the necessity paraphernalia for the operation were quickly requisitioned from the nearest Bospital. news of the king's condition i 3 even in official circles and to those nearest the court. At 12:30 o'clock no intima- sion of it had been weecived at the iralty. the is quoted as saying that the doctors were wrong in disguosing the trouble' as perityphlitis and in cutting down the patient's right side. Dr. Treves found 4 very large sac which wes full of putrid pus, and as 'soon as he got through the abdominal wall. = When this was evacuated the intended op- eration was not sompleted. It re waips a question whether, there is any infiltration of pus into the peri toneum. This latest news explains the apparent hesitation of medical su- thorities in their diagnosis when the operation was described as successful. The Times medical correspondent writes that from the history of the king's ilness, it would appear that he nd suffered for some.time with symptoms pointing to trouble around the vermiform appendix and his 'advis- ers were able to encourage the hope that these would pass away under the influence of Meat and care. The symptoms became Wrgent on Monday but the king wad anxious to defer the operation until | the coronation. It was evident, on Toesday, that this could not be safely done, as the sud: den accession of symptous indicated the presence of an cess of considers able size. The compeapondent does not know whether, besides pus from the abstess, the surgeons removed the vermiform mix itself. He save it is vccasionally better to be "ontented in the first instanen with immediate safety by the" evacuation of the pus and to defer #& radical cure until a future period. "The foregoing is be lieved to have been written by au- thority. It suggests that another operation may be necessary. The Daily Telegraph declares that the iilness from which the king suf fered, last week, did not afford any absolute indieation of the ailment which forced the operation. Monday night and westésday morning a change set in which necessitated a minute ex- amination, and, after careful delibera- tion, the doctors mrrived at the con- clusion that an immediate operation was imperative in order to avoid the chances of blood poisoning which would have heed inevitably fatal. A cabinet council, which lasted an hour, was liekl at Mr. Balfour's room, in the house of commons, last night, at which, it is understood, it was ar- ranged 40 carry on, so far as possible, public business requiring the king's approval and signature without re- ference to his majesty in ortler to se cure absolutely mental and physical rest and quietude throughout, what the ministers hope, will be the period of convalescence. A leading underwriter of Lloyds, where an enormous amount of insur ance has been effected on the corona. tion and on the life of king Edward, by big drapery houses, hotels and res ~anrants and proprietors of stands, ways : "Our rate, last week, on the {ife of the king for six months was ten guineas; to-d it is fifty. You see if the worst was feared the rate would be higher. Our last rate of the coronation, - to take place this week, was five guineas. There is no sign here of a panic and no suspicion of failure, but we shall have to shell out heavily." The Dally Mail sdys that no official intimation will be given to the special ambassadors but, it is expected, that both European and American envoys will now quietly return home at their own convenience, Prince Allert, of Belgiam, prince Leopold, 'of Bavaria, and archduke Francis Ferdinand, of Ausitia, © will start for home this morning, but those whose homes are far distant, such as the Chinese, Jap anese and Abyssinian representatives will not return yet. They will pro bably remain in England and pay a quiet round of inspection. All the Indian rajahs and the eolonial troops will remain the guweais of the nation for a time. » Insurance on king's life was effected vesterday at Lloyds on the basis of twenty-five guineas per cent. for one weak.

New York, June 25.---A special cable says : "'Your correspondent learns, on the same high au- thority 'quoted yesterday and whose reliability is without ques- tion, that the king's physicians are unable to offer any encourage- ment. The king's life hangs by a thread, and the only chance for his recovery is that a miracle will take place. The tubes, described in the accounts of the operation, are not for drainage, your corres- pondent's authority states, but replace a section of the bowel which was removed bodily. No- body is able to live long with tubes so placed and the only hope is.another operation to : re- move the tubes, draw the bowels together and sew them up. The chances of such an operation be- ing successful are so slight that they are barely worth consider- ing. "The royal family has been in. formed of the real state of case and that the possibility of the king's recovery is most remote, though he may linger for days and perhaps a fortnight, The first day being past the third day, to-morrow, is the one generally apprehended." oyal Fam- Pope Offered Prayer.
