his bedside. clinging to hope so long as hope
exists.
The financial articles in the morning papers
express the opinion that In the event Of the

houses in the United States will experience con-
siderable difficulty The Standards writer

markable for original views or distinguished by
bold initiative in policy; but. In a marked de-
gree. he has been typical representative of the
prevailing opinion of a majority of the American
people. He has been actuated throughout life
by strong sense of duty. His devotion to his
country was never questioned even by those who
have differed him heen

outset in Great Britain with an intense anxiety
that has recalled the last days of Queen Vic
toria. Every phase of the medical evidence has
been keenly discussed. and the painful sudden
ness of the cola pse after a revival of hope deep

heartfelt participation in the anxiety OF the

still holding their presses open for the last sad
news. The Daily Chronicle" says:
