STRICKEN WITH PARALYSIS.
j. c. GauIt, the Veteran Railway Of
HcinI. in a Critical Condition.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-John c. Gault, the
veteran railroad official, has been stricken
by apoplexy and is in a critical condition
at his home in this city. Last Tuesday he
was seized with apoplexy while on a visit
to the Board of Trade. General paralysis
followed in a few hours, and Mr.. Gault's
condition afterward offered little If any
hope of recovery. His tremendous physical
strength, however, warded off immediate
death. There is even a bare chance that
he NAV live for a considerable time, but
in that event the doctors are as one In de-
claring tEat he will be an imbecile. Mr..
Gault was a general officer of the Chicago
& Northwestern, and later of the Chicago,
Milwaukee * St Pau n the Wabash.
In 1890 he retired from railroading and came
back TO Chicago TO reside. since then he
has speculated on the Board of Trade, but
his ventures have not proven fortunate.
