JUSTICE MILLER SLOWLY DYING.
The Flame of Life Gradually Burning
Out-Sketcil of His Life.

WASHINGTON, October 12.-There has been
little change in Justice Miller's condition all
day. His physicians and watchers mo-
mentarily expecting TO see him die. 1t has
only been owing to his wonderful vitality
and recuperative power that he lived through
the day. The Justices respiration has
greatly Increased and his throat is rapidly
filling with mucus which will ultimately re-
suit in his death.
AT tonight Dr. Lincoln reported Justice
Miller as nearing his end. He believed he
could not last later than midnight. The
physicians say he has been dying all day and
that the end is not far off. This morning
his. respiration beoame shorter and the pulse
slightly increased, his lungs filed with
phlegm and he experiences great difficulty
In breathing. Throughout ne day he has
Deen In c0mat0se condition with no indica-
tlons OF rallying, the beating Of his heart in
dlcating the only sign of life to his watchers.
From daybreak it was evident that his
condition was gradually growing worse.
Every development showing plainly
the approach of death. DIR. Cook is in at
tendance at the sick mans bed nearly all
dag but was relieved several times by DR..
Lincoln. AT 3, when DR.. Lincoln called, he
noted marked change in the patients con-
dltlon, and knew he was past medical assist
ance. Many people called during the day,
among them being she Justices associates Of
the supreme bench. members of the cabinet,
and other prominent officers. The justices
only were admitted to the sick room, where
Mrs. Miller and the nurses constantly
watched. kilograms received from the JUS
tice.s daughters say that they had left Omaha
for Washington and would arrive here to-
morrow afternoon. During the day Mrs,
Harrison called and spent some time at the
house. In the evening Chief Justice Fuller
called and remained several hours.
WASHINGTON, October 13-At O'clock A.
m. Justice Miller was sinking rapidly. His
breathing had become more difficult and it
was hardly possible at times to tell whether
he was dead or alive.

Samuel F. Miller was born In Richmond,
Ky., April 5, 1916, and is consequently now
In the 10Th year of his age. He was gradua-
ted with honor at the University of Transyl-
vania, and at first elected to adopt the pro-
fessi N OF medicine. After practising as
physician a few years, however he decided
TO study law, in which profession he soon
rose to eminence. In 1850 he went to Iowa,
and soon became one of the Republican lerd
ers In that then frontier state. In 1862 Pres
ident Lincoln appointed him an Associate
Justice OF the Supreme Court and for many
years he has been the senior Justice.
Justice Miller, by common consent, has
been regarded as the strongest man on the
Supreme bench ever since he took his seat
thereon: On Two occasions he was selected
as Chief Justice by the appointing power by
President Grant and by Cleveland, but poll
cy forbade his appointment. Justice Miller
has always been a strong authority on con-
stitutional law, in which line he has earned
arepntation second only to that of Chief JUS
