whether she yet fully realizes the ca

Washington, May 10. W Mrs. Lyman
j. Gage, wife Of the secretary of the
treasury, died at $3.50 o'clock last night
With her when the end come were her
husband, her married daughter, Mrs.
q. F. Pierce of Evanston, Ill, and DR..
w. w. Johnston, theattending physi-
clan. For time before her death
Mrs. Gage suffered considerable pain
but she maintained her bright and
cheerful demeanor and was conscious
to the last. Heart trouble, the result
of grip complications, was the immedi-
ate cause of death. Mrs. Gage was
exposed to the Indictment weather for
about an hour on Inauguration day,
but at the time her health did not seem
to have been affected. On March IL
she left here for Evanston to visit her
married daughter. While there she ex-
perienced chill and took to her bed,
but soon recovered sufficiently to re-
turn to Washington, where she has
been confined to her room ever since.
Mrs. Gage was a native of Albany,
N. Y, and fifty-eight years of age.
She was married to Secretary Gage in
Denver. Colo, in 1887. There We're no
children from their union, Mrs. Pierce
being a child by a former husband.
The remains will be inferred in Rosehill
cemetery, near Chicago. Further than
this the funeral services have not yet
been arranged. 1t is probable, howev-
err, that religious services of simple
character will be held at her former
residence in this city on Sunday morn
ing, in which event the body will leave
here by the morning train for Chicago.
During their residence in Washington
Secretary and Mrs. Gage have taken
quite an active part in social life at
the capital. Mrs. Gage was woman
of charming personality, and with her
husband delighted in extending the
hospitality Of their home on Massa-
chusetts avenue. Mrs. Gage was prob
ably closer to Mrs. Mckinley than any
other of the ladies Of the cabinet.
Keep News From Mrs. Mckinley
San Francisco, May 19.-The news of
the death of Mrs. Gage was received
by the members of the presidents Of,
fetal family in this city with express
sions of regret. The Associated Press
dispatch, which was transmitted to
Secretary Cortelyou at the Scott resi-
dence, conveyed the news to President
Mckinley. Extra precautions were
taken to keep news of Mrs. Cages
death from Mrs. Mckinley.
