MINISTER RUNYON DEAD
Taken III Two Weeks Ago He Dies Suddenly
and Unexpectedly In the Night.
EMPEROR WILLIAM CALLS AT EMBASSY
And Leaves His Card-'Fhc Remains
Dcposiicd Ira IL vnult TO hwnit In
structions From President Clevc-
land = Secretary JncItson, OF tie
Embassy, In Charge.

Washington, Jan. 27.-The State De-
partment was officially notified of the
death of Ambassador Runyon In u dis
patch received this morning from John
Il. jackson. First Secretary OF the En-
basSy at Berlin. Secretary Olncy sent
message of coincidence to Mr. jackson.
to be conveyed to Mrs. Runyoir ana the
members of her family. This Is about
all the ceremony that Will be observed
In the matter except that kilograms OF
sympathy Will probably be exchanged
between Emperor William and President
Cleveland.
Berlin, Jan. 27.--It is learned that two
weeks ago yesterday United States Min
lister RunyOn WAS seized with IL chill
while attending religious, services In the
American Church. He left before the
service was finished and walked all the
way to his residence for the purpose of
shaking off his i'll feeling caused by pal
pitation of the heart The trouble so
overcamc him In the street that he Had
to support himself, holding fast to the
railing OF stoopS. Ile managed to get
home, where he tainted ut the bottom
OF the staircase. A porter found him
lying unconscious and carried him up
stairs. Mr.. Runyon recovered later In
the day and on Monday felt much het-
ter. Tuesday he went to his Office In
the United States Embassy. where he
remained an hour. Upon his return
nome he again collapsed, but on We'd
nesday he had recovered so that he was
able to go to his office. Since that time
he has been able to 20 to the Embassy
every day. On Saturday last he was
feeling especially well and in high spir-
Its. but Saturday night he complained
of Il feeling of faintnesS. Yesterday he
was apparently well again and went TO
the Embassy. He partoole of an after
noon dinner with his usual appetite and
at 1880 y. M. he went to bed. He awolic
at l2:3O o'clock this morning and stretch
cd out his hand to his wife, seeming to
be too Ill to speak. Before Mrs. Runyon
was able to summon assistance her hus-
band began to breathe heavily. The
doctor arrived Mt / o'clock, but Mr.
ltunyon was then breathing his last
with his family at his bedside
private funeral service for the fam
lily will he held In the House tomorrow
and on Thursday there will be n memo
rial services at the Episcopal
Church, after which the body Will
he deposited in vault pending
the decision of President Cleve-
land whether II shall be conveyed to
the United States on board a warship
or 10 be taken to Newark, N. j., by
private means. All Of the Foreign Am
bassadors and high officials have In
scribed their names and residences In

dcnce. Fhc Emperor drove to- the house
this morning and left his card MI j.
