A Sudden Change For the
Worse Yesterday Afternoon
Resulted in the End
This Morning.

East Northheld, Mass,-Dwight L.
Moody. evangelist and founder Of the
two schools here, died at 1906 p. m. to-
day. Be had been improving for two
days. and his recovery was looked for;
but about 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon
a change for the worse was noticed, and
he sank rapidly. His death was due to
Bright's disease. He was fully con
seious to tho end, and talked with menu
bers Of his family few minutes before
he died. His death bed was surrounded
by his wife, soas William and Paul and
daughter Mrs. A. p. Fits and his SON
in-law, A. P. Fits.
Dwight Lyman Moody was born on
Feb. 5, 1887, in Northtield, Mass, where
he died this morning. He received a
limited education and worked on a farm
till he WAS II ears old, when he became
a clerk in shoe stsrs in Boston. He
Joined the Congregational church soon
after. Having spent tive years in Bos-
ton, he went to Chicago in 1855 and en-
gagged in missionary work among the
poor. In less than year he had sstab-
lished Sunday school GLASS containing
more than 1000 pupils.
During the whole of the civil war he
was employed by the Christian commits
sion and subsequently by the Chicago
Y. M U. A. as lay missionary. A
church was built for his converts aad he
became their pastor, though unsrdained.
The church was destroyed by the great
fire Of 1871, but large one replaced it.
In 1873, accompanied by Ira D. San
key, he visited Europe and instituted
series of week day religious services in
England, Ireland and Scotland that re-
suited in intense religious excitement in
those countries.
The svanGelisss returned to the United
Sta es in 1875, and organized similar
meetings in this country. Since that
time they have been engaged In evan
gelical work both in this country and
Great Britain.

tive session was made by the chair

treaty was not taken up in the senate

outlined by member of the commits
sion who favors ratification is:
The opponents claim to have 33 or
Sd sure votes against the treaty. That
would defeat it, which would necessi-
tate an extra session. If there is to
be an extra session, the friends of the
treaty say they may as well take it
over unreiected by this session. They
do not propose to bring it to vote
unless they are sure of ratification.
An extra session, they say, will
.l9ean an extra session of the whole

tion is made to pay Spain the $40, ,0Q0,-

general desire is expressed to avoid an
