retired Saturday night asmall amount
Of soft coal was put into the stove to

have occasioned any danger ordinarily,
but in the night the stove pipe pro-
jecting above the roof become un-
jointed and fell across the remaining
pipe in such 2 way that it effectually
shut off the draft and turned the death
dealing gas into the room where the
sleebers lay. Halvor johnson, father
Of Carl and Mrs. Lee, called at the
house Sunday forenoon and after re-
peatedly rapping on the door, and also
finding it locked, concluded they had
gone away for the day and returned
home. Later In the day Ole Olsen
and Mrs. Inga Lee drove out from
Summit and their rapping on the
door awakened CARTS sister who had
escaped being entirely overcome by
the gas. She managed to get to the
door and unclock it and get out into
the open air. When Mr.. Olsen and
Mrs. Lee entered the house they
found that Carl had undoubtedly
been dead for some time. He was
buried Wednesday from the Baptist
church in Summit. Carl was 4 young

ALBERT w. BINGHAM DEAD.
Chief of the Finance Division of the
Postoflce Department.

Albert w. Bingham. for many years
chief of the Finan~e Division of the Post
Office Department, died at his home. at 1915
Fourteenth Street northwest last night of
heart disease. Mr. Bingham was fifty
three years of age and had for the fast
ten or fifteen years been suffering from
heart failure. He was taken seriously i'll
about three weeks ago and was compelled
TO take to his bed. He improved for sew
eral days, but finally began to sink. and
for the past three days his death had been
mnmentarily expected. Yesterday he be-
gan to grow weaker and weaker. until he
finally passed away at 7:30 last night.
Mr. Bingham was born in Michigan De-
cember D. 1S4S, and was one of the best
known and most highly esteemed officials
Of the Postoffice Department. He had
been attached to that department many
years, having received his appointment at
the close of the civil war. He became
chief of the Finance Division in 1891. on
account of his thorough knowledge of af-
fairs OF the office. particularly its finances
in every phase. he was chosen a member
of the Cuban Postal Commission at the
close of the war with Spain. Represent
ing the Third Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral he spent some time in Cuba making
observations which were of great value to
the Commission.
1t was the duty of Mr. Bingham to sign
all warrants for money paid out by the
department to meet its expenses in the
way of salaries, transportation and other
debts. 1t was an onerous task requiring
not only at the office at day, but many
tedious hours at home each evening. The
number of such drafts signed every year
ran into six figures easily. In point of
continuous service he was one of the
oldest employees Of the department. For
some time he had been complaining Of
heart failure, but his sudden collapse
yesterday was entirely unexpected and
quite a shock to the other officials of
the department.
He was married In 1872 to Miss Emma
Wsfe. Two children, a son. Horace, and
a daughter, Florence survive him.
