nations covenant today compelled President Wilson "to
cancel the remaining five speaking engagements.
The president's train will return to
Washington at once,' according to Sec
retary Tumulty, who in a formal state
ment said tho severe 'strain of the trip
and the past year brought on a ncrv-
oils reaction in his digestive organs.
Pr. Grayson insisted upon abandon
ment of tho trip. Tumulty said, despite
the president's desire to continue.
' The special train was to leave Wich
ita at 11 a. m. without the president
attempting -Ail speech here.:
Announcement of the cancellation of
the remaining dates was made before
a crowd of 1j,000 which jammed the
auditorium here, S. A. Amidon, nation
al democratic committeeman from Kan
sas, made the announcement.
The city was crowded for the presi
dent's visit. "Crowds massed in all
streets adjoining the. .auditorium, hop

tive in a parade which had been plan

k nearby streets were blockpit by the
crowds which poured into the city to
welcome the. chief executive.
Amidon did not say how serious the
president's condition was.
Remaining dates on the president's
schedulo were: ,
Wichita and Oklahoma City today;
Little Bock, Ark., and Memphis. Tenn,,
September 27; Louisville, Ky., Septem
ber 28 and 29. He was to arrive in
Washington September 30.
Secretary. .Tumulty issued, the fol
lowing statement:
"The president has exerted himself
so constantly and-has been tinder such
a .strain during the last year and has
so spent himself without reserve on
this trip that it has brought on a nerv
ous reaction in his digestive organs.
"Dr. Orayson, therefore, insists up
on the cancellation of his remaining
appointments and his immediate return
to Washington, notwithstanding the
president's earnest desire to complete
his engagements."
It was announced Wilson had suf
fered headaches for several flays past,
although he had not complained of them
except to his immediate associates on
the journey.
The president has made forty speeches
during the tour since leaving Washing
ton, September 3, and has spent all but
a half dozen nights on the train.
The president 's train will return to
Washington via St... Louis and Kansas
City, arriving there at 8 a. m. Sunday.
Wilson was still up and about his pri
vate car shortly before noon, although it
was possible- that Dr. Grayson might
order him to bed if hwr condition showed
no improvement. Mrs. Wilson was with
liiin constantly.
It was expected that Dr. Grayson
would make a statement later in the
day giving nn exact diagnosis of the
president's ailment.
