WASHINGTON, D. C. Especially Justin 8.
Morrill,, the senior Senator from Vermont,
died at 1.25 o'clock Tuesday morning in the
eighty-ninth year Of his age, after an ILL.,
ness Of less than week.
The immediate cause OF death was pneu-
monia, which developed from an attack Of
grip contracted about week before. The
venerable Senator was confined to his
home but seven days. Despite his ad-
yanced age he attended his Senatorial
duties faithfully, and regularly went to
the Capitol. His physician thinks that ex-
posure to Its rigors brought on the attack
OF grip.

LONDON (By Cable).-It Is no exaggera-
tion to assert that the foremost topic COM
pelling attention in Europe in general and
in Great Britain in particular, overshadow-
ing ths dreary broils Of domestic bolitics,
is the remarkable, aggressive. commercial
prosperity which the United States Is
manifesttng. Hardly newspaper review
or a public speaker has failed to notice
with what giants strides America Is COM
ing into the first place in the alignment Of
the powers. 1t is certainly the chief sub
ject Of conversation on Lombard street and
on the Continental Bourses.
Mr.. James Bryce, In speech before the
Leicester Chamber Of Commerce, sounded
warning to British manufacturers. He
emphasized the fact that the exports OF the
United States and Germany had increased
$170, 900 900 and S105, 900, 900 respectively,
between. 1891 and 1897. while Great Brit
aims decreased s75, 900. He further
pointed out that the business OF the United
States was developing along many impor-
tant lines, which Great Britain, he added,
should have held against all competitors.
Mr.. Bryce unhesitatingly asserted that the
United States could produce rails cheaper
than Great Britain, and said he saw no
possibility Of opening new markets except
in China.
Great Britain scems to have become
reconciled to the capture Of the iron
markets by the United States. American
firms are uniformly successful IN bidding
against the British firms. Consuls assert
that all Europe Is swarming as never before
with the agents OF American manufac-
turers Of steel, street railroads, electrical
apparatus and all kinds OF machinery, who
are leading the commercial invasion.
The Daily Chronicle comments upon the
fact that American capitalists "have the
courage Of their financial opinions II they
think they know the European situation
better than the capitalists Of the Old
World" 10 - .,.-' ...,
