THE ANGEL OF DEATH
Again Invades the Home of Secretary Bay.
ard-The Mother Succumbs to tho
Shock of Her Daughters Sud
den Call.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 3l.-Mrs. Bayard died
this morning. Deep sympathy is felt for
the Secretary and his family. Unlike the
death Of her daughter, this one has been
expected, for the mother began to fail at
once when the daughter died. The Secre.
tary is thoroughly Frustrated, and some Of
his friends say they would not be surprised
If he should feel like giving up his
duties here at no distant day. The
immediate cause of Mrs Bayard's death
was congestion of the BRAIN brought on by
the shock of her daughters sudden death.
For the first week following that event she
stood the strain and excitement quite well,
but week ago last Friday she was COM
PEELED to take to bed, and gradually grew
worse from day to day. On Thursday con-
gestion of the brain made its appearance.
She was unconscious for twenty-four hours
before her death Although for years Mrs.
Bayard had been a confirmed invalid,
she had for the last six months been
in better health than for many years.
Last summer she was very i'll at her
home in Wilmington, Del, with complica-
ton Of the liver and stomach, and her re-
covery OF that time was doubtful. At the
solicitation of her daughter, Miss Kate, she
put herself under the care of DR.. F. A.
Gardner, of this city, and under his treat
ment she had improved SO much as to be
able to go in society this winter, although
still an invalid, was in comparatively good
health when her daughter died. She was
about fifty-one years Of age.

Petition Against the Mexican Treaty.

BAN Francisco, Jan. 27.--California fruit
growers have addressed memorial to
Congress setting forth that the Mexican
reciprocity treaty to come before Congress
for action, will seriously injure the fruit
growing interests of California; that the
present duty of thirty-five per cent. ad
valorem on prunes, two cents per pound
on raisins, and dollar gallon on olive
oil, affords no real protection to these en-
terprises. Congress is, therefore, asked to
raise the duty on prunes to fifty per cent,
raisins to three cents, olive oil to three dol.
lars, and to decline to ratify the Mexican
reciprocity treaty..
