Transportation Compantes-yumped
or Fell from Window-Body Found
by Servants.
New York, Dec. Horace j. Hay
den, vice president of the New York
Central & Hudson River Railroad com
pany, was instantly killed at his home
in West Seventy sixth street tonight.
Servants found the body of Mr.. Hayden
lying in the yard. A window in the
fourth story was open and it is thought
Mr.. Hayden either fell or jumped out.
Mr.. Hayden lived with his wife, two
sons and a daughter in handsome
brownstone house near Riverside
Drive. It was said that he was sub
ject to attacks of shortness of breath
and it is supposed that he had been
seized with one of these attacks and
had opened the window to get fresh
air. When picked up he was fully
dressed and the body was yet warm.
His head had been crushed in.
One of the sons is said to be at pres
ent travelling in Spain. The other son
is connected with the New York Cen
tral & Hudson River Railroad COM
pany. He was not at home when the
accident happened. Mr.. Hayden was
director of about twenty transportation
companies in this state and member
of the Union, University, Century as
sociation, Transportation and Harvard
clubs. He was born in New England,
sixty-two years of age and was grad
uate of Harvard in the class of 80
During the civil war he was major in
the Fourth Regiment Artillery and at
the conclusion of the war Joined the
regular army. Later he became con-
neCted with a western railroad and then
with the Boston and Albany railroad
and subsequently with the Chesapeake
& Ohio Railroad company.
About twenty years ago Hayden was
made general traffic manager of the
New York Central & Hudson River
Railroad company. For the past few
years he had been second vice presi-
dent of that road.
Cyrus Clark, real estate dealer and
an intimate friend of the Hayden fam
lily, said that Mr.. Hayden had evident
ly gone to the window for fresh air
when he accidentally fell out

HARVARD WINS The DEBATE
YALE EBEATEN FOR THE THIRD CON-
SECUTIVE TIME.

Overpowered by the BriIliancy OF
Speech and Logic of the Crimson Men
Their Plan of Government for the
Philippines Definite; That of Yale
Vtstonary-Argumen Is of the Debaters.
Cambridge, Mass, Dec. IA victory
in the debate came to Harvard for the
third consecutive time against Yale in
the Intercollegiate series a. Sanders
theater tonight By brilliancy of
speech and logic in argument Harvard
overpowered her opponent and received
the major share of applause from the
cultured audience. In her main argu
ments Harvard was superior and her re-
buttal was SO strong that Yale could
make little headWay against it, although
striving hard to tear down the construc-
tive case. The speaker for Harvard
was Roscoe Conklin Bruce, who won
the Coolidge prize in the trial debate,
and, singularly the leader on the Yale
side was Frank H. SincerbeauX, who
Won the Tkacher prize at his college.
The question debated was: Resolved,
That the permanent retention of the
Philippine Islands by the United States
is Desirable
Harvard had the affirmative and her
case was substantially put together,
while Yales negative was constructive
1y weak The former had definite
policy for government of the Philip
pines, while Yale's plan was somewhat
visionary In rebuttal Yale attacked
Harvard's policy, yet this attack was
easily answered. Harvard proved that
