Rupture of Blood Vessel in the Brain the
 Cause.

Rupture of Blood Vessel in the Brain the
 Cause.
 Youngstown, O., Aug. 26.-President John Newell of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern railway, and also president of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie road, died here at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon. About noon yesterday, while Mr. Newell was in his private car near Newcastle he suddenly be- came seriously i'll. A fast run was made to this city and as soon as he had sufficiently rallied he was re- moved to the Tod house in an ambu- lance. Mrs. Harry Garfield, President Newells daughter, arrived from Mentor at noon to-day and was with her father in his last moments. During last night the sick man was at times able to converse with his physicians. As daylight appeared he lapsed into a comatose condition and after o'clock became unconscious.
 When taken to the hotel last evening there were symptoms of paralysis of the left side of MT. Newelrs body. The later symptoms were those of rup- ture of a blood vessel in the brain.
 Telegrams were sent to MT. Newelrs son, Arthur Newell, at Chicago and to Mrs. Newell and her daughter, who were on the New Hampshire coast. They are hurrying to Youngstown on special trains. Vice President Reed, General Manager Beach and other off, cials of the Pittsburg and Lake Erie company were early notified of the serf- ous condition of President Newell and came at once on special trains.
 Immediately after death the remains of President Newell were embalmed. Tomorrow morning train will convey the remains to Cleveland, O., to await the arrival of Mrs. Newell, who is ex- pected there tomorrow.
 MT. Newell was born in 1880. He was by profession civil engineer and start ed on his railroad career at the bottom of the ladder. For one year and six months he was rod-man and after wards assistant engineer of the Gen. of the terminal facilities of that road. In 1868 and 1869 he was superintendent of the New York Central and Hudson River road. In, 1871 he was elected president of the Illinois Central road.
 In 1875 he became connected with the Lake Shore. He was general manager until 1883 since which time he has been it's president. President Newells eld- est daughter is married to a son of the late President Garfield.

ravoRs THE GRAVITY SYSTEM.

superintendent jackson Suggests the
True Remedy for the Water Famine
In reference 10 the report of w. f
Boone, made 10 the chamber of commerce
trustees on needed improvements 10 the
water works, Superintendent Andrew
Jackson, of that department, said yes
terday:
az am not in favor Of spending any more
money on the present system. with the
exception of changing some o! the pipes
on Renton hill. Ii is sufficient TO supply
the wants for some years TO come, barring
some unlocked FOR addition 10 the popuia-
ton. No. that we do not need some I'M
provements, but IL IS not policy TO make
them 10 the present system. What we
need TO make the present plan sufficient is
a proper use OF the supply. That was
proven by the transfer of all inspector
service to the Broadway system. Inside
of three days after that. with the addi-
tional inspector given by the council. a
difference OF 800, 900 gallons day appeared
IN the quantity pumped at Broadway, and
with the advent of the rain and cool
weather another reduction OF between
10000 and 400 900 appeared, making
total reduction OF 60, 600 gallons due TO
these causes.
II am opposed TO any further expense
on the present system beyond repairs and
pumping system ought 10 DE regarded rs
only temporary until the gravity system
can be carried out.
AS regards the map of the system, that
is being made now. Even with all the
waste. there has been no scarcity of water
in the reservoir. and in August We pumped
%. 000. go gallons more than in August,
1888. The only scarcity Was In the Broad
way system. and that was due to waste.
The criticism on the location OF the
Queen Anne pumping station Is correct.
The pump is Ie5 feet below the level of the
reservoir, when II should be only twenty
1--WE feet below. The consequence is that
We are pumping 1000, 600 gallons of water
eighty feet twice. 1t would pay TO move
the pump up that eighty feet even now.
when once the Lake Washington canal
shall have been completed and the level OF
the lake lowered as proposed, SO many in
dustrles will grow mp around IL as to render
its water unfit for domestic purposes, so that
1t will. in few years. become imperative
for the city to adopt some other source OF
supply. ] believe that the only rational
system is the gravity system proposed by
Benezettc Williams. for. as he said In his
report on the Cedar river system, 1t
would furnish p, 000, eco gallons day as
cheaply as we now pump 100000 gall

Blind Tom, the musical prodigy, who
has been before the public for over thirty
years, will be heard for the first time in Sc
attic at Cordray's theater next Monday and
Tuesday evenings. The New YorK Herald
says: After long period of silence. Blind
Tom, the negro pianist, appeared last even
ing in some OF his familiar and pleasing
performances. AT the hail OF the Young
Mems Christian Association he gave an
entertainment that thoroughly satisfied
the audience. The great majority OF the
selections were played in the peculiarly
pleasing way that this most original OF
performers long since made the world
familiar with. HIS limitations, compost
tions and peculiar tricks with the insiru-
ment al met with a cordial reception and
provoked rounds OF applause"
