MRS. GLADSTONE
 DIED YESTERDAY She Had Been Seriously III at HaWarden Castle and Death
 Was Expected.

London, June 14.-Mrs. Gladstone, the widow of William E. Gladstone, the Eng fish statesman, died at $40 p. m. today.
 Mrs. Gladstone has been i'll at Hawar- den Castle for some days and her death has been expected. Communications to the English papers, pending her indisposition, have brought out the part Mrs. Gladstone played in the career of her lamented hus- band, the Grand Old Man" of England.
 It is said that she was one of his best counsellors, and looked after his health with special care. At some of the night sessions, it is reported, she used to wait for him to protect his throat with wraps after the heat of speaking
 The London press is full of her praise.
 Mrs. Gladstone, who had been uncon- scious for about seventy-two hours, died without recovering consciousness.
 The news was immediately conveyed to the Queen, the Prince of Wales, the Dean of Westminster, the Dean of Lincoln, Sir William Vernon Harcourt, Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, Arthur J. Balfour and others.
 In the course of the evening William Gladstone, heir to Hawarden, arrived from Eton, shortly followed by two sisters from London. The bells of Hawarden church rang muffled peals By courtesy of the Dean of Westminster and in accordance with arrangements made in 1898 the funeral will be held fin the Abbey. The interment probably will take place on June 19, being of as private character as possible.

IRON SITUA TON
Iron Age Says the Turning Point Has
 Not Been Reached

New York, June H.-The Iron Age in its issue today, says:
 'The turning point in the iron trade has not yet been reached, notwithstanding the general reduction in prices made during the past week. Buyers are still placing contracts for merely enough to meet their present requirements and are not disposed to anticipate the future. The concensus of opinion among leaders in the trade is that hand to mouth buying will continue until prices have receded to a point which is seen to be close to the cost of production at average works.
 "The opinion Is expressed that 1t would be better to reach this point at once by making sharp reductiols, which would cut to the quick This would accelerate the strction of production that is necessary to bring about a sl bstantial basis for bus- ness. As long as prices show a good margin above cost at the great majority of works manufacturers will continue oper- Gtions in the hope that they may be able to dispose of their product"
