SPoS"i DisPutcn 10 dazette and journal,
DOVER, April 6.-Chancellor Willard
salisbury died this morning at 6.15o'clock
at his residence in this town, in the ~ vear
Of his age.
Death was caused by an attack of apo.
plexy, and occurred few minutes after
the arrival of DIR. L. A. II. Bishop. Who
was hastily summoned. lie had been af-
fected for years by partial paralysis of
the lower part of his body, which made
him such cripple that he could not moyo
about without assistance.
The fatal attack was sudden and unex-
pected, as the chancellor was in his usual
health yesterday, and went out riding in
the afternoon.
LATER DISPATCH.
DOVER, April l6.-Chancellor Salisbury
was apparently enjoying the best of health
yesterday. He was out riding and seemed in
excellent spirits. He also attended to some
official business. His son Willard and Hon.
Charles u. Lore came down on the o. clock
tram, expecting to argue case before him
to-day which had been postponed.
He retired at the usual time. His he'd
room is on the first floor in order to avoid
ascending the stairway, as the chancellor
has been slightly paralyzed in his legs for
number of years. About 5.45 O'Clock
this morning, Mrs. Salisbury noticed tho
unusually heavy breathing of the chancei.
Tor and went to his bedside. He was then
unconscious and DR.. l.. A. Ii. Bishop was
summoned. The chancellor did not regain
consciousness and died Mt 615 o'clock.
The funeral will be held next Saturday
afternoon. Services at the house at 2
o'clock. lntermcnt in the p. Il. cemetery
Y this town.

iien, laoo, to Miss Anna A. Ponder, dnugh-
yer o. Hon. John Ponder, prominent
aiherchant at Milton. Sussex county, and a
SISTER 70 Ex-Governor James Ponder. who

THE GREAT SENATORIAL FIGHT or 1871.
inc death Of Willard Salisbury natur-
any recalls to mind the great senatorial
hght OF 1871, when Willard and his brother
,uove We're pitted against each other for
tne United States senatorship and the
prize, after desperate struggle, was car
ried on by q third brother, Eli, who was
pu, forward "a. prevent threatened dead
iock between the other two.
Willard salisbury at that time WINS inst
closing his second term in the Senate. and
Hove salisbury, only q few days before
the caucus, retired from the office of the
governor OF Delaware, in which he was
succeeded by his brother-in-law. James
Ponder. Cove salisbury fully expected to
be chosen MS Wizards successor, and the
prevailing impression at the time was that
ne would not be disappointed. As for Eli
salisbury. at that time a practicing at
torney III the town of Dover, he was not a
candidate for the position, and was not re-.
garded as factor in the contest until the
tiine Tor the legislative caucus drew yery
near Kent county was for Cove, Sussex
Tor Willard, while the New Castle deega-
ton was divided.
The caucus was held on the night of
Monday, January 10th, 1871, and was par
ticipatcd in by 30 members, the Legislature
being unanimously Democratic at the
time Four ballots were taken, with the
following result:
Delaware gazette and state journal. (Wilmington, Del.) 1883-1902, 1892-04-07

In the struggle the friends of each Of the
two leading contestants were determined
that i they could not win the other side
should not, which left the third brother,
Eli, in. good position as a compromise.
Therefore, when the third ballot showed a
gain of one vote for Cove, the Is original
supporters of Willard united with the
three who had voted for Eli ON tile first
two ballots, and this gave him IL votes and
the nomination.
This contest, presenting as it did the
unique spectacle of three brothers con-
testing for the office of United States sena-
tor finds no parallel in the history Of this
country.
now THE VACANCY WILL BE FILLED.
The death of Chancellor Salisbury Gro
ates vacancy in the Office held by him.
The selection of his successor will be the
duty of Governor Reynolds.

From Yesterdays Every Evening.
The first announcement in this city of
Chancellor Saulsbury's death was by a
special dispatch from Dover to EVERY
EVENING, which was promptly displayed
Oh the bulletin board.
The news was sudden and entirely I'M
expected. Although the chancellor's
physical condition was far from perfect,
he had no affection beyond the paralysis
which has rendered him cripple for
years, his heolth in other respects having
been unusually good. His death, there
fore. proved a shock and profound sur
prise to ths entire community.
