FREMONT, o., Jan. lS.-Hon. Ruther-
ford b. Hayes, whose attack Of an
gina pectoris terminated fatally last
night, was brought hore last sat
urdsy, suffering from an attack
o. rheumatism of the heart, with which
he had been stricken at Cleveland 1t was
the second attack of the kind he had re-
ceived within two weeks. and, although
his condition was regarded rs somewhat
serious and excited the alarm Of his fam
lily, the encouragement given them by DR..
EIilbest, the family physician, led them to
believe the patient would soon recover.
For this reason all knowledge of the ex-
presidents illness was kept from the pub
lie and the fact that he was suffering
from heart trouble did not become known
until Monday.
While Dr. Hlbest remained almost con-
stantly at the patients bedside, no
alarming symptoms appeared until last
evening. The announcement of the eN-
presidents death proved n shock to all
From Webb Hayes it is learned that the
condition of his father took sudden
change early in the evening and rapid dis
solution followed.
Early in the evening an inquiry elected
the response that the general had passed a
fairly we'll day and was resting nicely.
The change from better to worse was
rapid and at Ii o'clock the ex-president
passed away. The first intelligence of
this was received when Webb C. Hayes
came down town and quietly announced
that his father had just died.
When General Hayes started from
Cleveland for his home in Fremont Sat
urday, he complained on entering the
car of exhaustion, and asked for stimu-
lants. They were given to him, and he
refused to return to his sons house, say
ing: Il want to go home. | would
Rather Die in Sp:egcl Grove
than live anywhere else" He was seized
with violent pairs in the chest, which
lasted till after his return home. lie was
treated for angina pectoris, but, while re-
leved of distress, his heart never recov-
cred its vigor and life was suddenly
terminated by paralysis of the heart
While dying, in his own chamber, he
frequently referred to a visit made to his
wife's grave Oh the preceding Sunday, and
spoke OF the quiet beauty of the snow-cov-
cred landscape lie said that he almost
wished he was lying there by the side of
his wife. at was all SO peaceful, and
yet" he said, 81 am not unhappy. My
life is an exceptionally happy one"
The family were hastily summoned TO
Lis bedside, when it became apparent
about 10 o'clock that the eX-president was
sinking, His last words were to his fam
lily physician, DR.. Hilbest, to whom he
said: Il know that / am going where
Lucy isl The words We're spoken dis
tinctly, and his face bore a happy smile.
Earlier in the evening there was every
reason to suppose that the patient would
pass a comfortable night, and the men,
bers of the family retired to rest, but were
summoned when the physician feared the
dread summons was near. The eXa CT
time OF death was 10:45. The funera
takes place Friday afternoon. His remain
will be buried in lakewood Cemetary.

the same influence, stocks of winter goods
have been extensively cleared off, and re-

more liberal. The volume OF domestic trade

There is much hesitation regarding the
action OF Congress on various measures, and
the uncertainty about the silver purchase
repeal, the prospects OF tho anticipation bill,
and the defeat of the pooling amendment of
the Interstate commerce act. all influenced
markets and trades to some extent.
There is also somewhat general increase
in complaints about collections, although
money at nearly ali markets is compare

legitimate demands. at Boston the dry
goods trade is excellent, Western stocks he

demand exceeding the supply, and the
woolen mills are fully employed with the
best prospects. Trade in boots and shoes i:
very satisfactory, leather is active and

LONDON, Jan. 22.-The Standard says:
"Egan's release is intended to prevent TIE
Redmondites from breaking loose in tho de-
bate on the home rule bill. The govern
ment decided that the danger to be feared
from them if it refused to interfere with
the course of justice was more important
than the danger incurred in setting loose
the murderous rutiian Egan and in letting
others of his class know that they can look
to politicians to override the sentence CT a
