left lung suddenly became affected and
filled rapidly. Since then either DR.. John
son or the consulting physician has been at
his bedside constantly, as have Mrs.
Gresham and the Secretary's son-in-law,
Mr.. Andrews. He passed very bad
night on Saturday and bad
day Sunday, suffering SO much pain
that last night he was placed under the in
fuence of opiates. He has been kept more
or less under their influence all day. His
long illness had weakened the Secretary
greatly and his physicians decided that in
his exhausted condition he could not
undergo an operation for the removal of
the fluid. The fact that the Secretary
has had stomach trouble for years,
and has been obliged to diet,
mitigated against any rapid re-
covery of strength. Secretary Gresham
had an attack of pleurisy years ago. He
has also suffered much from his'wounds,
being at one time bedridden for over
year.
About $50 P. NJ. he sank rapidly and
death was momentarily expected. Resto-
ratives were applied and hypodermic in
jections of nitroglycerine - the most
powerful of all heart stimu-
lants - and strychnine were made.
His blood-vessels were in a state of col
lapse, and his condition was so extremely
critical that the physicians decided that

sary in order to stimulate the
heart. Dr.. Raensaeller, an expert
surgeon and son-in-law. of DR.. johnson,
was hastily sent for. He opened vein in
the left arm and infused pint and half
of normal saline matter. The operation
was successful, and about 8 o'clock the
stricken statesman had revived somewhat.
The news which came later that Secre-
tarv Gresham was dying spread like wild
! fire through the city, and public officials
and friends of the Secretary called at the
| hotel by the score and asked anxiously for
| information.
! President Cleveland, who was at Wood
icy, was then telephoned to and kept con-
stantly informed as to his premier's con-
dition. He, too, has been confined
to his room, it is said, for
two days by bilious attack.
He sent in word that if it was possible for
him to see the Secretary or to be of any as
sistarce he would be glad to come in, but
the physicians stated that it would be i'm
possible for the Secretary to see any one,
and he therefore decided to remain at
Woodley.
Secretary Gresham was conscious almost
the entire evening. Many times he in
CURED for his son Otto, who is
on the way from Ohio. Meanwhile
the anxious watchers at the bedside about
9:30 o'clock saw the giant frame of the
Secretary convulsed by severe chill. He
sank rapidly, but the chill passed away
and he recovered slightly, and then dozed
for few minutes. The physicians con-
tinued to give hypodermic injections of
nitro-glycerine. At 1910 he suffered an
other rigor.
AT IL 80 Secretary Herbert came to the
hotel. He had arrived in Washington
about $3.50, fastening at once to join the
little party of watchers.
By midnight the signs of dissolution
were crowdlng thick and fast. The MEM
bers of the Secretarys family, who had
been excluded earlier in the even
ing from fear that their pres
ence might arouse the apprehension of
the dying man, had been admitted, for 1t
was plain that Secretary Gresham fully
realized his position and desired
to spend his last moments with his
loved ones. He had been conscious
and even conversed calmly with those
about him, but as the midnight hour drew
near the waning forces of life were no
longer equal to the effort, and he sank
INTO silence. Although almost pulse
less and without signs of life
otherwise, his eyes still showed
the gleam of intelligence and appreciation
OF what was going on around him, and the
watchers waited in silent agony of spirit
for the going out of life.

Sixth judicial District.

The Richfteld Advocate Republican,
of August p, speaking of the possible
judicial nominee on the Democratic
ticket for the Sixth judicial district,
speaks of the several gentlemen whose
names have been mentioned, as fol-
lows:
Then for the district judgeship-ah,
there's the rub. Like the county school
superintendent office the judgship
should be decided with no reference to
party, but it will be many a long year
yet before that condition can exist. So
long as the present generation may
live to cast the ballot and witness the
results every office which admits of
party candidates will be made subject
to party selection. So far as we are
able to determine the possible Demo-
cratic nominees for the district judg-
ship are E. w. Mcdaniel and 1. j.
Stewart of this city, and that same
senatorial aspirant, Mr.. Sargent of
Panguitch. OF this hopeful triumvi-
rate it is impossible to determine who
stands the best show just now OF
the Panguitch prospect we know but
little. The two Richfield gentlemen are
well known in the district. Attorney
Stewart is the man who was first
downed by William McCarty as county
attorney, and then by William II.
Clark as representative to the legisla-
ture. Mr.. Stewart is fair minded
gentleman, and a good lawyer, but
recognizing the fact that defeat would
follow his nomination is very indiffer-
ent as to the results of the coming pri-
maries. E. W. Mcdaniel has been a
citizen of Utah since 1882, and has re-
sided in Richfield nearly three years.
Prior to his residence here he practiced
law and was engaged in newspaper
work in Ogden Mac is a jolly fellow.
a good lawyer and of the judicial turn
of mind, which would fit him for the
judgship. Indeed, he is unfortunate in
being popular with the party, for we
would be loath to see him sacrificed at
the overwhelmingly Republican polls
this fall.
