LAST WORDS OF JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
Made to Order by Request. According TO Dick
Thompson. Late Secretary Of the Navy.

Not long before his death called on Dick

tened with unusual interest to his political REM
iniscences. dating from ls4S when he was In
Congress, and running on down to his retire
ment as Secretary of the Navy Department,
said Congressman lands of Indiana. Il had
asked him about Joha Quincy Adams when the
latter was a member OF the lower House. After
he had answered. he said:
Lands. haven't much longer 10 live.
and want to make little confession to you.

one living who knows the secret, and think
shall feel better to know I have told it, I

had the attack which resulted in his death
two days later. was one of the four who car
ried him into the Speakers room. He never
regained consciousness After his death we
who had carried him out Of the House met and
questioned one another until each confessed
that he had not heard Mr.. Adams say anything
after we picked him up. In those days the
last words OF great men had an interest which
does not attach TO last utterances In this age.
And so IL was agreed that inasmuch US Mr..
Adams had no chance to say anything for HIM
self that we would make some last words for
him. commensurate with his worth

as his last words. This is the last Of earth =
One of the four who had helped TO carry him
out replied i am content" These last words
were not intended to be credited to Mr. Adams.
The member who said "am content" meant
that he was satisfied with my report. but |
did not so understand him at the time.
thought that the words were intended as a
sort OF amendment and added them. As they
seemed quite appropriate we concluded to let
them stand. and there they are as they have
been quoted for fifty years.
"Mr. Thompson was not o destroyer. He

on this last words business, as ne called II. and

be the head Of the lake and asked the Indians

laughed and shook their heads. They said II

A. P. FITCH STILL AGAINST BRYAN.
THINKS MOST OF THE GOLD DEMOCRATS

There have recently been conflicting statements
as to the attitude of ex-Controler Ashbel p Fitch
in the present campaign Mr.. Fitch is now presi-
dent Of the Trust Company Of America. He is a
Gold Democrat and supported Palmer and Buckner
in 1896 Mr. Fitch said yesterday:
II have seen II stated in certain newspapers that
might support Bryan, and in others that was
undecided as 10 how 1 would vote. The only point
on which am undecided is how best to insure the
defeat of Bryan and the principles he represents.
about that result, shall sail in and do al! can
TO insure the defeat of Mr.. Bryan"
Mr. Fitch asked if he believed the SOUND
Money Democrats would name a third ticket he
replied that he did not. .oo.
Il believe" he said, that the men who IN 1896
were classed as Gold Democrats at least those
in New-York will. after some profanity, vote TOT
Mckinley this year"
