CONSCIOUS TO THE LAST
'WHAT Is TIE NEWsp" HIS
LAST WORDS.
Death Occurred In Texas, Where He
Had Gone For His Health-Busy
Career of the Noted Journalist
Engaged In Newspaper Work For
Half a Century.

San Antonio, Tex, March 16.-Joseph
Medill editor of the Chicago Tribune,
died here this morning at 1880 o'clock
of heart failure. He was conscious up
to the moment of death, which he met
with calm placidity. He said to his pri-
vate physician ten minutes before he
died: MY last words shall be, What
is the neWs?''
He came here three months ago for
his health, and has been confined to his
bed only five days. His grandson, Rob-
ert r. Mccormick, was with him in his
last moments His remains will be sent
to Chicago at once.
Joseph Medill was born in New
Brunswick in 1929 When he was 9
years of age his father moved to Ohio,
where the son worked on farm while
acquiring an education. He subse-
quently studied law and practiced for
some time at Massillon. In 1S49 ne
founded q. free soil newspaper in Co
shochton and in 1852 he established a

ST0CEMEN FIGHT IN WYOMING
BATTLE WAS SCHEDULED FOR
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
Sheriff and Posse Started From Chey-
enne to Restrain the Ranchmen-
Invasion of the Range.
ESPECIAL to The Heraldl


Cheyenne, Wyo., March 16.-Unless
Sheriff Shafer and deputy of this coun-
ty reached the scene in time, a battle
has been fought on the range between
the towns of Pine Bluff and Salem
Wyo-, forty-fiye miles east of here, be-
tween rival stockmen. Some weeks ago
the big cattle concerns of Mark Coado
of Central City, Neb., the o outfit and
the Heyshams of Hillsdale, Wyo., drove
in several thousand head of cattle and
ranged them on ground which had been
for years the feeding place of cat
tie owned by Robert Perry, Lew Sol
gren, John EXtrom and other small
ranchmen who live on Horse creek and
adjacent to the disuted range. These
men objected to the trespass of the big
cattlemen and warned them off, Last
week they served notice to the trespass-
ers that if the cattle were not removed
by midnight Wednesday night, the
ranchmen would drive them and their
owners off by force of arms.
The eattlemen came to Cheyenne and
applied for protection. An injunction
was issued and placed in the hands of
the sheriff, who with his deputies and
relays of horses started for the scene
at once.

Famous Chicago Spectator, Who
Won and Lost Millions.

Chicago, March 16.-Benjamin T.
Hutchinson, the former board of trade
operator and packer, died of heart fall
ure at $50 o'clock this evening at the
Lakeside sanitarium, Lake Geneva,
Wisconsin. He was 70 years old Tne
remains will be brought to Chicago for
internent. Mr.. Hutchinson's health
began to fail rapidly three years ago
and during the last two years he has
been at the sanitarium where he died.
Mr.. Hutchinson was at the height OF
his fame in 1888. when he ran his cor
ner in September wheat. After that
began his decline and the financial end
came in 1891. His last deal was a big
one, he being on the wrong side of the
market for 100000 Financially
crushed, he left town and went to New
York City, where he opened a second
hand store. He gave up that and re-
turned to Chicago, where he traded in a.
small way when he could get people
interested in his schemes, but his ca
reer may be said to have closed with
the big deal of 81.
No one knew how much he was
worth. He would never talk about
private affairs. The estimates of his
wealth when at his height place the
amount anywhere from 100000 to
SIG ZOO, 900. A conservative estimate
places his richest days at 100000 to
S6,000,000.
